Masonry contractor in Buckhead, GA

Buckhead's prewar neighborhoods include homes built with original brick and stone masonry that is now between 70 and 100 years old. Mortar in these walls has weathered through decades of Atlanta's wet winters and dry summers. Repointing requires removing deteriorated mortar to the correct depth and replacing it with a mix that matches the original in hardness and color, so the repair does not damage the surrounding brick face.

The rolling terrain in Buckhead, particularly around Collier Hills and the Tanyard Creek corridor, creates significant grade changes on residential lots. Masonry retaining walls on these properties carry real structural loads and need to be set on proper footings with drainage behind them. A wall that looks decorative is still a structural element when it is holding back a slope.

North Buckhead and Chastain Park include larger lots where replacement homes and additions have been built alongside original structures. When new masonry work is added to a property that already has historic brick or stone, the materials and coursework need to read as intentional, not mismatched. We source brick and stone to complement what is already on the property.
