Masonry Contractors in Hamilton

Hamilton is a city filled with thousands of century old brick homes. These homes have been battered by intense Canadian weather for so long, that many of them are in need of masonry repair or restoration. This means tuckpointing or repointing, parging, brick replacement and chimney repair. For all of these projects, it is important to find and contact a trusted and reliable masonry contractor.

Types Of Masonry Contractors

There are generally three types of masonry contractors. First, there are contractors who take on large jobs such as new home builds, additions etc. Then there are the contractors who specialize in the smaller jobs. These are the restoration masons. Their bread and butter is fixing the deteriorated mortar of your home, a process known as repointing, replacing damaged bricks and fixing or rebuilding your chimney. Lastly, there are the individual contractors who generally work alone and don’t have a properly established company.

What Type Of Masonry Contractor Should I Choose?

When it comes to the average home owner, the mid sized masonry contractor is generally going to be the way to go. If a company is too large, they may not take your :smaller” project seriously and will consider it an add on and not something that they want to show clients. If you hire an individual who is not properly established, you may have a worker who isn’t properly insured or who doesn’t have all of the necessary tools and supplies to perform the work properly.
