Masonry contractor in Bloomfield, NJ.

Dense Essex town with a mix of pre-war single-family and post-war Capes. Most of the work here is on the older stock: Broad Street row-house repointing, bluestone stoop replacement on pre-1940 single-family, chimney rebuilds on pre-1970 brick. The pre-war construction shares technique with Newark and the Oranges. Soft brick, lime mortar, the same restoration rules.

Questions homeowners ask

FAQs about Bloomfield jobs.

Things we've been asked most often by homeowners we've worked with in Bloomfield. Don't see your question? Give us a call.

Why match lime mortar on Bloomfield brick?

Pre-1940 Bloomfield brick is soft, and the original Type N lime-rich mortar was designed to be even softer so the joints crack before the brick face. Hard Portland mortar speeds spalling. Lime-rich mortar matched to the original color is the correct call.

Do you replace pre-1970 chimneys above the roof?

Yes. Most reach the point where surface repointing won't hold. We tear down the failed section above the flashing line, pour a new cap, and rebuild with new flashing and a stainless cap.
