A mason visits your property, inspects the work area up close, and explains exactly what we found in plain language. You get a written estimate with a clear scope of work before we do anything. You decide whether to move forward.
Once you approve, we schedule the job and get it done. Most residential masonry work wraps up in one to three days. We clean up the site before we leave, walk you through the completed work, and back everything with a written warranty.
We hold an active CSLB license covering structural masonry work and carry full liability insurance. You can verify our license on the CSLB website before agreeing to anything.
We come to your property, look at the job in person, and give you a written estimate at no charge. No verbal ballparks, no pressure to decide on the spot.
We have been working in the Sacramento region since 2017 and know the local soil, climate, and housing stock. We are not a national franchise sending unfamiliar crews.

"The chimney had not been touched in 30 years and the mortar was crumbling in several places. The crew pointed out two spots I had not even noticed from the ground. Repair was done in a day and the joints match the original brick so well you cannot tell where they worked."
Mark T., Fair Oaks - Chimney repair
"We had a section of our retaining wall starting to lean and were worried it would come down over the winter. They assessed it quickly, gave us a written estimate, and had it rebuilt within the week. It held through the whole rainy season without any issues."
Sandra L., Folsom - Retaining wall construction
"Our driveway had cracked and shifted enough that it was a real tripping hazard. The paver installation took three days and the crew cleaned up each evening. A year later it still looks exactly the way it did when they finished."
James R., Carmichael - Driveway pavers

(916) 618-0487Rancho Cordova Masonry & Concrete serves homeowners across Rancho Cordova, CA and 12 communities throughout the Sacramento region, including Sacramento, Folsom, Roseville, and Elk Grove. We cover the entire area and can typically schedule most jobs within the same week.
Late summer through October is the ideal window. Fresh mortar needs warm, dry conditions to cure - and every crack in your chimney or brick wall is an open door for winter water. Schedule repairs before November and you avoid watching a $500 tuckpointing job become a $3,000 structural repair.
Both work, but pavers handle the Sacramento Valley heat cycle differently. If a section cracks or settles, individual pavers can be replaced without tearing out the whole surface. Concrete is durable but when it cracks from clay soil movement - which is common here - the repair is more involved.
Clay soil expands when it absorbs winter rain and shrinks in summer heat. That seasonal movement puts stress on your foundation, brick walls, and concrete flatwork year after year. Rancho Cordova sits on some of the most expansive clay soil in the Sacramento Valley - it is the main reason masonry repairs are so common here.
It depends on the scope. Cosmetic repairs like tuckpointing usually do not require a permit. Structural work - foundation repair, retaining walls, chimney rebuilding - typically does. The California Contractors State License Board maintains licensing requirements that apply to all structural masonry work statewide.
The Sacramento Valley's extreme summer heat dries out mortar, causing it to crack and shrink. Then winter rains push water into those cracks. That cycle repeats every year. The Chimney Safety Institute of America recommends annual chimney inspections, and homes built before 1990 are especially prone to this pattern.
Quality tuckpointing with the right mortar mix can last 25 to 30 years. Pier-based foundation repairs are designed to be permanent when done on stable bearing soil. The key is matching materials to the climate and soil conditions here - not just using whatever is fastest or cheapest.
Rancho Cordova Masonry & Concrete is a licensed and insured masonry contractor based in Rancho Cordova, CA, serving 12 communities across the Sacramento region since 2017. Licensed through the California Contractors State License Board for structural masonry work - the same licensing authority that covers foundation, chimney, and structural concrete projects statewide. In nearly a decade of residential and commercial work, we have completed hundreds of masonry projects across the Sacramento Valley, from chimney repairs on 1960s homes near Folsom Boulevard to full retaining wall installations in Anatolia and Roseville. Learn more about our team and how we work.
A thin hairline crack in concrete or mortar is normal. A crack wider than a quarter-inch, a crack that keeps growing, or a stair-step crack along brick joints is worth a professional look. Those patterns often signal soil movement or structural stress.
Water is the main risk. A small open joint lets moisture into the wall. In Sacramento's wet winters, that moisture works deeper into the structure over a single season. A $400 tuckpointing job left alone for two years can become a $3,000 structural repair.
Sometimes, but only when applied correctly. The wrong sealant can trap moisture inside a wall and cause more damage than it prevents. The National Park Service's preservation guidelines recommend assessing your specific masonry type before applying any sealant product.
If you noticed something during your walkthrough that concerns you, the next step is a free in-person assessment. Call (916) 618-0487 or request an estimate online. For preservation standards on older masonry, the National Park Service Preservation Briefs are an authoritative free resource.
Rancho Cordova is a mid-sized city of about 80,000 residents east of Sacramento, officially incorporated in 2003 but built up largely during the suburban expansion of the 1950s and 1960s. A large share of the housing stock is now 50 to 70 years old, which means foundations, chimneys, driveways, and brick planters throughout the city are at or past the age where they need attention. Learn more about the city at the City of Rancho Cordova history page.
The city includes several distinct neighborhoods, each with its own housing character. Homes near Folsom Boulevard date back to the 1950s and 1960s and commonly have original brick chimneys and concrete flatwork well past their useful life. The western side of the city near Mather Airport includes some of the oldest residential stock in the area, much of it dating back to the former Mather Air Force Base era. The newer Anatolia neighborhood to the east features homes built in the 2000s and 2010s that are now entering their first major maintenance window for tile roofs and stucco exteriors. The city neighborhoods page has more detail on the distinct areas within Rancho Cordova.
The clay-heavy soil throughout Rancho Cordova - documented in detail by UC Cooperative Extension research on Sacramento Valley soils - is the single most consistent factor driving masonry problems across the city. That soil expands every winter and shrinks every summer, putting repeated stress on every masonry structure in the ground. Rancho Cordova Masonry & Concrete has been working throughout Rancho Cordova since 2017, from the older ranch homes along Sunrise Boulevard to the newer streets on the city's eastern edge.
