Bill Keown has built his reputation on providing the highest possible masonry work at the lowest possible price. With his high standards for customer satisfaction, there is only one choice!
"I hired Bill for stone pointing repair about 4 years ago and again in August 2024 for brick pointing repair. I cannot speak more highly regarding his work on both occasions. He takes time to explain what he would be doing. He did the stone pointing in stages to make sure that I would be satisfied with the finished work. He provided different options and their respective prices with the pros and cons. I had other contractors give me estimates before I met Bil, none of whom took time to explain specifically what they would be doing and all my options. His work is excellent and his prices are reasonable. Bill actually performed extra work at no additional charge in areas which, as a layperson, I was unaware needed attention. You can trust this man.!"

Masons charge between $70 and $110 per hour. A mason may have a minimum service fee ranging from $80 to $300. Most bricklayers offer free estimates and charge only if you proceed with the project. This clear pricing model assures that professionals inspect your property before beginning work and charge based on your project’s actual requirements.
A professional repointing lasts 20 to 30 years without maintenance and extends up to 50 years when maintained diligently. This process protects your brickwork using high-quality materials that ensure lasting performance and durability. Consistent upkeep preserves its strength and appearance, providing enduring protection and enhancing your home’s overall structural integrity for decades.
You know your house needs repointing when you notice clear signs such as cracked, flaking, or missing mortar and visible discoloration on the brick surfaces. Additional indicators include loose bricks, water damage, and gaps between the brick joints that compromise the overall integrity of the structure. Addressing these issues promptly protects your investment and sustains the durability and curb appeal of your home.
A house needs repointing to preserve both its structural integrity and visual appeal. Mortar acts as a vital bonding agent that holds the bricks securely together. When the mortar deteriorates, it exposes the structure to water infiltration and further decay, increasing the risk of costly repairs. Repointing stops decay and reinforces the exterior, ensuring long-term protection.
