Our Masonry Services in Delawanna
We handle complete masonry restoration, repair, and installation — all tailored to Delawanna’s architecture and soil conditions.
We manage brick repair and replacement throughout the Delawanna section, from River Road to Athenia. Homes from the 1950s often suffer from spalling brick or deteriorated joints. We use Type N mortar for breathable, flexible repairs that suit mid-century brickwork.
Our stone veneer installations have transformed several homes near Passaic Park, where property owners wanted a modern, low-maintenance façade that mimics natural fieldstone. We install both full and thin veneer using proper moisture barriers to prevent efflorescence.
Chimney repair and rebuilding is one of our specialties. Many Delawanna chimneys built before 1970 have soft mortar and poor flashing. We rebuild crowns, install stainless steel liners, and seal joints against freeze-thaw expansion. Proper flashing installation and waterproof coating ensure no more leaks into the attic or flue.
For repointing and tuckpointing, we grind out old mortar and replace it with material matched in color and composition to the home’s original brick. This work restores both appearance and structural integrity — especially important on north-facing walls that take the worst of winter frost.
Our team pours and finishes concrete patios and walkways that handle the region’s temperature swings without cracking. We reinforce every pour with rebar and apply a protective sealer for longevity.
We also build and repair steps — front or back — with attention to tread height, drainage, and alignment. From brownstone stoops near Delawanna Station to concrete steps along Main Avenue, every build meets local code and your home’s character.
When it comes to retaining walls, the area’s clay-heavy soil demands proper drainage. We excavate to install perforated pipe, gravel base, and backfill correctly — preventing wall movement and water pressure buildup.
Our foundation repair and waterproofing solutions protect basements along the Passaic River corridor, where groundwater can rise quickly after storms. We install French drains, patch cracks, and apply elastomeric coatings that keep moisture out.
Finally, our emergency masonry repair service runs 24/7. From a chimney hit by a storm branch to crumbling steps after a hard freeze, one call to (862) 232-6765 gets us moving fast.

Common Masonry Problems in Delawanna Homes
1. Freeze-Thaw Brick Damage
Delawanna’s winters bring over 40 freeze-thaw cycles. Moisture trapped in mortar expands overnight and causes surface spalling. We repoint with breathable mortar that lets vapor escape — best done before winter sets in.
2. Efflorescence & White Staining
The neighborhood’s high water table pushes minerals through masonry walls, leaving chalky deposits. We clean the surface, address drainage, and apply a siloxane sealer to stop it from returning.
3. Foundation Settlement Near the River
Homes close to the Passaic River often sit on shifting clay. Cracks appear in block foundations and basement floors. Our solution includes structural pinning, epoxy injection, and regrading for better runoff.
4. Aging Mortar in Mid-Century Brickwork
The 1950s-era homes common near Athenia use softer mortar than modern blends. Using high-strength mixes can damage those bricks. We match the original formulation to preserve appearance and structure.
5. Chimney Leaks & Deterioration
Exposed to wind off the river, chimneys here often develop cracked crowns and water penetration. We rebuild with high-temperature mortar and add proper flashing to keep rain out for decades.
