Avoid closing delays, boost curb appeal, and sell with confidence
Small brick and mortar issues may not seem like a big deal—but they show up fast on home inspection reports and can stall or kill a deal. At A&X Masonry, we specialize in repairing brick and stonework before you list, so your sale goes smoothly from contract to closing.
Here’s what we recommend fixing—and how we can help.
Buyers, agents, and inspectors notice brick damage immediately. Whether it’s a crack running along your window, loose bricks at the steps, or a crumbling chimney, these issues raise red flags about water damage, settling, or poor maintenance.
Even small issues can:
You don’t need to rebuild your house—but you do need to address visible and structural concerns. Here are the most common masonry items that appear on punch lists:
Old or missing mortar is one of the most common inspection items. We carefully grind out failing joints and repoint with fresh mortar that blends cleanly with the rest of your brickwork.
If you’re seeing cracks above garage doors, windows, or arches, the steel lintel underneath may be rusting or shifting. We can remove, replace, or install new steel lintels to ensure proper support—then tuckpoint the surrounding brick for a seamless look.
Visible damage at entryways is a deal-breaker for curb appeal. We repair or rebuild brick columns and steps, leaving them solid and photo-ready for listing.
We understand time is critical when you’re preparing to sell.
Most masonry repairs take 1 to 3 days, depending on the size of the project and weather conditions. Whether it’s repointing a few cracked joints, replacing bricks around windows, or repairing a chimney crown, we work efficiently without cutting corners.
We can often schedule your repair within 1 to 5 business days, especially if you’re working with a tight inspection deadline. Our team shows up on time, protects the work area, and keeps your sale moving forward—without last-minute surprises.
We don’t offer formal inspection reports—but we do make your repairs hassle-free.
You can:
Either way, we’ll give you a clear scope of work, fast scheduling, and results you can count on.
