I started in the Masonry business in 1976 and have been working ever since. I started my business in 1980 and incorporated in 1986. We are a small company with an experienced crew. They've all worked with me for the last 20 years. Experienced with working with condo associations and large building tuck pointing, brickwork, and stone work.
"In Aug./Sep. 2019, Rogers Masonry did a tear-down of our decrepit stuccoed chimney, followed by a beautiful brick re-build. The project posed some every unique challenges that Roger handled with a high level of professionalism and diligence. He is exceptionally knowledgeable in all chimney-related matters and provided almost-daily progress reports to document the work his crew was performing. His communication was exemplary, and he was responsive to our questions/concerns, all of which he promptly addressed. We were especially appreciative of the many pictures of the ongoing work that Roger provided throughout the project. We have already had the opportunity to make a referral for Roger and hope to work with him on another chimney project in 2020."

Brick construction offers numerous benefits, including exceptional longevity, natural resistance to fire, and substantial durability against weather extremes. The thermal mass of brick helps regulate indoor temperatures, potentially reducing energy consumption. Brick homes often maintain their aesthetic appeal with minimal maintenance, and many buyers perceive them as premium properties, potentially supporting stronger resale values compared to homes built with other materials.
Brick veneer consists of a single layer of brick attached to a standard wood-framed wall, providing the aesthetic of brick without serving as the structural support. This approach costs between $3 and $20 per square foot, depending on the specific type. Structural brick construction uses brick as the actual load-bearing wall material, requiring more extensive materials and specialized construction techniques. Most contemporary "brick houses" utilize the veneer approach rather than true structural brick.
Adding brick siding to an existing home costs $72,000 for a 2,000-square-foot residence. Real brick siding ranges from $10 to $20 per square foot, while more budget-friendly alternatives include thin brick veneer ($3 to $10 per square foot) and faux brick panels ($6 to $13 per square foot). This renovation requires professional installation to ensure proper moisture barriers and structural attachment.
