Bricklayer in Grand Rapids, MI
Expert brickwork for repairs, restoration, and maintenance. We fix what Michigan winters break — and make it last.
About Our Bricklayer Services
Brick doesn't last forever. Especially not in Grand Rapids, where winter freeze-thaw cycles chew through mortar joints like nobody's business. When your brick walls start showing cracks, crumbling mortar, or water stains, you need a bricklayer who understands the problem — not just the symptoms.
Adam Baker Masonry handles all types of brickwork across West Michigan. Tuckpointing that actually matches your existing mortar. Brick restoration that brings old walls back to life. Crack repairs before they become structural problems. We've been doing this for three generations, and honestly, there aren't many brick problems we haven't seen.
Here's the thing about brick repair — timing matters. A small mortar joint issue today becomes a major structural problem next spring. Water gets in, freezes, expands, and suddenly you've got loose bricks and water in your basement. We catch these problems early and fix them right the first time.

Learn MoreFrequently Asked Questions
How much does a bricklayer charge in Grand Rapids?
Tuckpointing typically costs $5-25 per square foot depending on the condition of the joints. Brick replacement runs $20-40 per square foot. We provide free estimates for all brick repair and restoration work.
When should I repair my brick mortar?
If you can push a key or screwdriver into your mortar joints more than a quarter inch, it's time for tuckpointing. Other signs include cracked mortar, missing chunks, white staining (efflorescence), or damp spots on interior walls.
Can you match old brick and mortar colors?
Yes. Color matching is one of our specialties. We custom-mix mortar to match your existing joints and source period-appropriate bricks for older homes. The repair should blend in seamlessly.
How long does tuckpointing last?
Quality tuckpointing with proper materials lasts 25-30 years in Michigan's climate. We use mortar mixes rated for freeze-thaw exposure and apply proper joint profiles that shed water effectively.
