Masonry services in Redlands, CA
Prestige Redlands Concrete and Masonry is a masonry contractor in Redlands, CA, fixing old brick, block and stone and building new. Our 16 services run from crumbling joints and tired chimneys to new walls, walkways and paver drives, and they leave you with masonry that sheds water and stays put. On a repair, the price turns on how far the damage goes and what caused it. On new work, it's the size, the materials, how much digging the ground needs and how easy the site is to reach. The schedule mostly follows the same things. Your written estimate spells out what we'd do and what we'd use.
Foundation repair
Cracks in your foundation, or doors that suddenly stick? We find out whether water or soil movement is behind it, then repair the foundation and the cause.
Chimney repair
We rebuild cracked crowns, loose bricks and crumbling joints on brick chimneys, so a tired chimney stops letting water into the brick and the house below.
Tuckpointing
What's tuckpointing? We clean out worn joints, fill them with mortar colored to match the brick, then run a fine contrasting line so the joints look sharp.
Brick repair
For flaking, cracked or loose bricks, we cut out the bad ones and set in matching brick, so the wall is whole again and the repair blends in.
Driveway pavers
We lay paver driveways over a dug-out, packed base, so the pavers sit level under your car and single pieces can be lifted and reset later.
Retaining wall construction
We build retaining walls that hold back a slope or level out a yard, with drainage behind the wall so water has a way out instead of pushing on it.
Masonry restoration
Is an older brick or stone house showing its age? We repair joints, brick and stone in materials suited to the original, and leave sound old work alone.
Fireplace installation
We build masonry fireplaces inside and out, from the firebox to the surround, laid out to fit the room and the framing behind it.
Stone veneer installation
Stone veneer is a thin layer of real or manufactured stone set over a wall. We install it on house fronts, columns and fireplaces with the right backing behind it.
Concrete block walls
We build concrete block walls along property lines and around yards, on a poured footing, with steel and grout filling the hollow blocks where the wall needs it.
Foundation block wall installation
Need a block foundation for an addition, garage or shed? We lay the block walls on a solid footing, square and level for the framing above.
Outdoor kitchen masonry
We build the block base, the counters and the stone or brick finish of an outdoor kitchen, with openings sized for the grill and appliances you've picked.
Walkway construction
We build brick, paver, stone and concrete walkways, from the driveway to the front door or across the back yard, on a packed base that keeps them even.
Brick wall installation
Want a brick garden wall, a low wall around a patio or a privacy wall? We build them on a solid footing with straight rows and even joints.
Stone masonry
We work in natural stone for walls, steps, columns and planters, fitting and setting each stone by hand so the finished work looks right and carries its weight.
Brick pointing
When mortar joints are cracked, sandy or missing, we rake them out and press in fresh mortar matched to the brick, so water stays out of the wall.
Why homeowners hire us for brick, block and stone
A few things decide whether a masonry job holds up and whether you're happy with how it went. Here's how we handle each one, and why.
One person from estimate to walkthrough
I'm the one who looks at your job, and I'm on site while the crew builds it, so what we agreed on at the estimate is what ends up in your yard.
We fix the cause, then the crack
Water and movement do most of the damage to masonry. We track down which one it is and deal with it first, because a patch over a live problem just buys you a second crack.
Planned around the house behind it
I framed houses for years before I picked up a trowel, so I know what's behind a wall. We plan the masonry around the house it's attached to, not the other way around.
A written estimate you can compare
Your estimate spells out what we'll do and what we'll use, so you can hold it up next to anyone else's. Call (909) 488-7148 or contact us to set up yours.

Redlands, the city we work from
Redlands is where we're based, and it's a city that holds on to its older places. Kimberly Crest House & Gardens, a French chateau with Italian-style gardens, has grounds you can walk and small group tours of the house, and the A.K. Smiley Public Library has served generations of readers from its historic building and grounds.
The city bought Prospect Park after local efforts to save it, and Heritage Park joined its list of historic parks. Redlands also has its own city code, and home projects inside the city fall under it, so masonry work here gets built to the city's rules, and we bring the same care to the cities around it.

Questions about masonry in Redlands
How much does masonry work cost in Redlands, CA?
It depends on the job, and I don't put a number on it until I've seen it, because two cracked walls can have very different causes. Size, materials, digging, access and any hidden damage are what move the price. Your free written estimate spells out what we'd do and what we'd use on yours.
Is it cheaper to repair old brick or replace it?
Repair is usually cheaper when the brick itself is sound and only the joints or a few bricks have failed. I'd rather leave a sound old joint alone than replace it to pad a bill. When water or movement has wrecked a section, rebuilding that part can cost less than chasing patches.
How long does a masonry job take?
It depends on the size of the job and what we find once it's open, so we talk it through at the estimate. Repointing a section of wall moves faster than a new retaining wall that needs digging, a footing and drainage. Fresh mortar and concrete also need time to set before they take a load.
Are you a licensed and insured masonry contractor?
Yes, Prestige Redlands Concrete and Masonry is licensed and insured. You're welcome to ask about it when I come out to look at your job.
How do you protect my yard during a masonry job?
We cover lawns and paths near the work, keep materials stacked in one spot and clean up as we go. Masonry is dusty, heavy work, and I'd rather spend a few minutes on covers than an afternoon scrubbing mortar off your patio.
Do you guarantee your masonry work?
Yes. Your satisfaction, guaranteed. Before we start, your written estimate spells out what we'll do and what we'll use, so we both know what you're getting.
What mortar should be used to repoint old brick?
Old brick usually wants a softer mortar than modern mixes, because mortar that's harder than the brick can crack and flake the brick around it. We match strength and color to the wall instead of grabbing whatever bag is on the shelf. Hard mortar on soft brick is a bad marriage, and the brick always loses.
Which building code applies to masonry work in Redlands, CA?
Redlands uses the 2025 California Building Code, Volumes 1 and 2, as its building code, with some changes of the city's own. A copy of the adopted code is on file with the City Clerk's office if you want to read it.
