Why Morris Plains Homeowners Trust E Pro Construction
Proximity matters. From 100 North Street, Elmwood Park, NJ 07407, we reach Morris Plains quickly—quotes inside 24 hours, usually same day, and real 24/7 emergency service when a chimney shifts or a wall opens up after heavy rain. John answers the phone himself at (862) 232-6765.
We’ve worked homes off Littleton Road, near Speedwell Avenue/Tabor Road, and around the Littleton neighborhood. We’ve pulled permits through Morris Plains’ building department dozens of times, so inspections and timing are predictable. Paperwork doesn’t stall your project—we handle it.
The housing stock spans early- and mid-20th-century brick and stone, post-war capes and ranches, and newer infill near transit and retail. We source materials that match Morris Plains’ mid-century and Craftsman-era architecture, from softer, breathable Type N pointing mortars on historic brick to compatible stone blends that echo local fieldstone. That’s how a repair blends under afternoon sun near the Stickley Museum instead of flashing like a patch.
We understand specific local challenges—storm-exposed stacks near Morris Plains Station, frost heave on shaded steps by Community Park, and runoff on sloped yards along the Route 10/Littleton corridor. We design drainage, install proper flashing, and repoint with compatible mortar so the fix lasts. Our 1-year guarantee covers workmanship, and we come back if anything settles.
Neighbors talk about quick callbacks, tidy sites, and transparent pricing. That’s how we maintain a [4.9 Google reviews] reputation across Morris Plains and Northern New Jersey. Licensed, insured, founded in 1997, and still owner-led—NJ #13VH12693500.

Our Masonry Services in Morris Plains
We handle complete brick repair and replacement throughout Morris Plains, from the Littleton area toward Speedwell Avenue. Older brick here needs careful unit selection and joint tooling. We cut to a consistent depth, repoint with Type N where appropriate so walls breathe through winter, and we hand-pick face brick to avoid a patchwork look near transit and village-center storefronts.
Stone veneer installation adds curb appeal to post-war capes and split-levels off Tabor Road and near Morris Plains Community Park. We install veneer over moisture-managed substrates with weeps and rainscreens, set real or cast-stone corners with full-depth returns, and flash windows/doors correctly so the face never traps water. The result nods to the Craftsman stone traditions celebrated at Craftsman Farms—without the moisture problems that plagued older work.
Chimney repair and rebuilding is constant here. North- and west-facing stacks near rail lines and open exposures catch the worst winter wind. We rebuild crowns with proper overhangs and drip edges, replace spalled brick courses, add stainless liners, and install step and counter-flashing that locks into the mortar—not just caulked to the shingle. No more brown stains on the ceiling after a storm around Speedwell Ave/Route 53 or the Route 10 corridor.
For repointing/tuckpointing, we evaluate brick hardness and sand color before we mix. On pre-war façades, a softer, breathable mortar keeps the wall healthy. On 1960s brick with harder units, we match compressive strength so joints won’t shear. We often repoint garden walls within sight of Community Park where salt and moisture drive efflorescence.
Concrete patios and walkways in Morris Plains see winter salt, snow shovels, and spring runoff. We compact subgrades, build stone bases, and set saw-cut control joints to control cracking. On sloped lots near Littleton Road and Route 10, we pitch slabs away from foundations and add drains where necessary. Finishes range from broom to cut-stone borders or brick insets.
Front and back steps take a beating from freeze–thaw. We rebuild cast-in-place concrete steps, brick and bluestone treads, and pre-cast units with steel pinning and proper riser-tread ratios. For shaded entries by the parks or tree-lined streets, heated options cut ice and stop spalling.
Retaining walls hold up backyards on the gentle hills that define parts of Morris Plains. We excavate to frost depth, pour footings, and add perforated pipe wrapped in fabric with clean stone backfill. Relief weeps release water during storms so walls don’t bulge. We build in natural stone, block, or engineered systems, and we’ll design the drain so your landscaping stays put.
Foundation repair & waterproofing keeps basements dry in lower yards and near drainage swales. We seal cracks, install interior French drains and sump pumps, or go exterior with membranes, boards, and drainage to relieve hydrostatic pressure. Gutters, leaders, and grading changes protect the perimeter and stop the cycle for good.
Emergency masonry repairs (24/7) cover everything from a storm-loosened chimney to vehicle-damaged steps on the village streets. Call (862) 232-6765 anytime. We secure, tarp, and return with permanent work when weather clears.

Common Masonry Problems in Morris Plains Homes
Freeze–Thaw Brick Damage
Winters here swing above and below freezing in a single day. Water in joints expands and pops faces off softer brick—especially on north-facing walls and chimneys near Morris Plains Station and open exposures by Route 10. You’ll see spalling, hairline cracking, and white efflorescence. We cut and repoint with breathable Type N mortar and replace failing units before another winter cycle speeds the damage. Fall is ideal.
Chimney Leaks from Failed Flashing
Gusts across the valley push rain sideways. Old step flashing or a flat crown lets water in behind the brick. Ceiling stains near the chimney, rusted damper parts, or a musty smell are signals. We rebuild crowns with overhangs, install step and counter-flashing, and re-point weak shoulders so the leak stops for good.
Heaved Walkways & Tilted Steps
Freeze–thaw and spring runoff lift slabs and settle risers, creating trip hazards near schools and parks. We re-compact bases, add drainage stone, and saw-cut control joints so new concrete moves on its terms, not the soil’s. For shaded entrances, we can add radiant heat to limit icing.
Foundation Seepage in Low Yards
Lower elevations and older drain lines push water against basement walls. Signs include damp corners, mineral staining, and paint that peels in sheets. We pair grading fixes and downspout extensions with interior French drains, sump pumps, or exterior membranes where needed to relieve pressure and dry the space.
Mortar Erosion on Garden & Perimeter Walls
Fieldstone and older brick walls near the park and along Littleton lose joints to rain splash and salts. Stones loosen and shift. We rake out friable mortar, re-bed with compatible mixes, and reset caps to shed water. That stops washout and preserves the original look.

Serving Morris Plains Since 1997
Our first Morris Plains project in the late ’90s was a chimney rebuild off Littleton Road. Since then we’ve matched fieldstone on porches near Morris Plains Community Park, leveled heaved steps along Speedwell Avenue, and waterproofed basements on tight lots behind older houses near Route 10.
Our crews know the difference: pre-war brick wants softer mortar and light tooling, while 60s/70s split-levels need tougher mixes and careful flashing. We source materials from regional yards that carry old-stock blends so repairs look original, not “new.” And yes—we’ve pulled permits here more times than we can count.
“These reviews reflect what we hear often from Morris Plains homeowners: quick response, quality work, and transparent pricing. We maintain a [4.9]-star rating on Google from [100+] verified customers across Morris Plains and Northern New Jersey.”
