About our masonry contractor company in Sparks
Our story, from tile setting to masonry
I set tile for years before I switched to masonry. I learned brick, block and stone under an experienced mason before I started this business in Sparks in 2023. Most of our calls come from homeowners with crumbling mortar joints, a tired chimney, or a wall, walkway or patio they've been planning for a while. We're best known for careful repair work, matching new mortar to an old wall so the fix doesn't stand out.
Sparks summers run into the 90s, December nights drop well below freezing, and the city's design figures put frost about 24 inches down. That's why I care most about the parts you never see, like the base, the drainage and the mortar, because they decide how well the work holds up here. If a simple repair will do, I'll tell you so rather than sell you something bigger. You can read more about our masonry work in Sparks or send us a note on our contact page.

Our values, as you'll see them on your job
These are the things you'll notice from the first visit to the last day, because they're how I was taught to work and how I'd want my own house treated.
You deal with the owner throughout
I come out myself to look at the job and write the estimate, and I'm on site running our own crew while the work gets done. The person who quoted your job is the one making sure it's built that way, right through the final cleanup.
Repairs that match your old wall
Before we repoint, we match the new mortar to your wall in color and strength and try it in a hidden spot first. That way the repair blends in and is easy on the brick around it.
Straight lines and a tidy site
Years in a finish trade left me particular about straight lines and clean joints, and I carry that into the brick, block and stone we lay. When we leave, the site is swept and the scraps are gone.
Permits sorted out before we start
We find out whether the City of Sparks, Washoe County or another office covers your address, because the rules depend on where you live. When a job needs a permit, we handle the application and the inspections.
Licenses a Sparks masonry contractor needs
Nevada state contractor license
In Nevada, anyone who offers to build, alter or repair a structure has to be licensed by the state contractors board before giving you a price, not after. Small repairs under $1,000 in labor and materials are exempt, but not when the job needs a building permit or is part of a larger project of $500 or more.
City of Sparks business license
A contractor who comes into Sparks city limits to work also needs a city business license and proof of workers' compensation coverage, because the city says a state license alone isn't enough. We're licensed and fully insured, and I'm happy to go over that with you at the estimate.
