Learn MoreReach out by phone or the contact form and tell us what you are seeing. We will ask a few basic questions about the damage, your home's age, and whether you have had prior work done. We respond within 1 business day and typically schedule your free on-site estimate within the week.
We come to your property, walk the damaged area with you, and look at the actual condition of the masonry - not just what you described on the phone. You get a written estimate explaining what we found, what we recommend, and what it will cost. No obligations, no pressure.
Once you approve, we schedule the job, pull any required permits, and get to work. You will know exactly what to expect - timeline, noise, prep, and what happens when we are done. We clean up, walk you through the finished work, and make sure you feel good about the result before we leave.
We hold an active license with the Arizona Registrar of Contractors. You can verify it at roc.az.gov before you hire us. Every job is covered by liability insurance - no exceptions.
We come to your property, look at the actual damage, and give you a written estimate at no cost. There is no pressure to sign on the spot, and getting a second opinion is always encouraged.
We are a locally owned company. We know how Flagstaff's freeze-thaw cycles, volcanic soils, and 100-plus inches of annual snowfall affect masonry - because we live here too.
We walk every finished job with you before we leave. If something is not right, we fix it. We would rather spend extra time on-site than leave a homeowner with a question mark.

“We called about some diagonal cracks near a doorframe that had been getting worse each spring. They came out the same week, explained exactly what was causing it, and had it repaired within two days. The cracks have not come back through two winters.”
Thomas R., Flagstaff - Foundation repair
“Our chimney mortar was in rough shape after years of heavy snow. They pointed out damage I had not even noticed from the ground. The repointing was clean, they matched the original mortar color well, and the fireplace has been running perfectly this winter.”
Debra M., Kachina Village - Chimney repair
“Had them build a retaining wall along the back slope of our yard. The crew showed up on schedule, kept the site tidy, and finished a day ahead of the estimate. The wall looks solid and has held through two monsoon seasons without any movement.”
Carlos V., Doney Park - Retaining wall construction
We respond within 1 business day. There is no obligation to proceed after your estimate. After you submit, someone from our office will call to schedule a free on-site visit so we can see the actual condition of your masonry before recommending any work.

Flagstaff averages over 100 frost days a year at 7,000 feet. Each freeze-thaw cycle forces moisture in mortar joints to expand and contract, widening cracks with every passing winter. That repeated movement is why masonry here deteriorates faster than in lower-elevation Arizona cities.
That white chalky residue is called efflorescence - mineral salts that water carries out of masonry as it moves through. On its own it is not dangerous, but it is a reliable sign that water is penetrating your mortar or brick. Left unaddressed, that moisture works against your wall through every freeze-thaw cycle.
Diagonal stair-step cracks that follow mortar joints often signal that the wall or foundation has shifted - not just that mortar has worn out. In Flagstaff's volcanic and cinder-based soils, ground movement is a real cause. Filling those cracks without understanding why they appeared is a short-term fix that will fail again.
Yes. Homes built before the 1970s often used softer, lime-based mortar that was designed to flex. Replacing it with a harder modern mix can crack the original bricks over time, since the mortar will not give the way the old material did. Matching the mortar type to your home's age is a critical step that separates experienced masons from those just patching a problem.
Permits for structural masonry work in Flagstaff mean a city inspector reviews the job plan and may check the completed work. That independent oversight confirms the repair meets safety standards and creates a documented record that protects you when you sell. The City of Flagstaff Development Services office handles permit applications - a reputable contractor pulls it for you.
Flagstaff's monsoon season brings heavy afternoon storms from mid-June through September. That moisture pushes hard against any gap in exterior masonry, soaks into worn mortar joints, and then freeze-thaw cycles in fall finish the job. The National Weather Service Flagstaff tracks seasonal precipitation data that shows why late-summer masonry inspections pay off.

Late summer through early fall is the ideal window in Flagstaff. Mortar needs mild, dry conditions to cure properly, and finishing before the first hard freeze in late October means the repair can fully harden before winter puts it to the test.
Hairline cracks in paint or stucco are usually cosmetic. Cracks wider than a credit card, stair-step cracks following mortar joints, or cracks that have grown over time warrant a professional look. A mason can usually tell you which category you are dealing with on the spot.
Every freeze-thaw cycle widens existing cracks. What costs a few hundred dollars in mortar repair today can become a brick replacement or structural job by spring. The repair almost always costs less the sooner it gets done.
The Brick Industry Association publishes technical guides on mortar selection and masonry maintenance that are worth a read if you want to understand the materials involved. When you are ready to move forward, call us at (928) 326-9044 or request a free estimate online.
Flagstaff is one of the highest cities in the country, sitting at roughly 6,910 feet above sea level in northern Arizona. The city is home to about 76,000 residents and is anchored by Northern Arizona University, one of the region's largest employers. The combination of high elevation, intense UV exposure, and temperature swings of up to 40 degrees in a single day puts real stress on homes in ways that most of Arizona does not experience.
Flagstaff sits inside the largest contiguous ponderosa pine forest in North America, and most neighborhoods are surrounded by or within view of the San Francisco Peaks - with Humphreys Peak rising to 12,633 feet just north of the city. Historic Route 66 runs through downtown, and neighborhoods like Sunnyside and the Southside Historic District have housing stock going back to the early 1900s - masonry that has faced decades of freeze-thaw cycles and heavy snow. The National Weather Service Flagstaff records more than 100 inches of snowfall annually on average - more than Chicago or Denver.
Flagstaff homeowners deal with masonry challenges that do not exist in Phoenix or Tucson: volcanic and cinder-based soils that shift with moisture, monsoon rains that push hard against exterior walls every summer, and winters that test every mortar joint. Flagstaff Concrete & Masonry has been working in this environment since 2018 and understands what the local climate does to masonry over time. From homes near Coconino National Forest to older properties in the Southside Historic District, we know this community and we are ready to help.
