About SMM Salem Masonry

Our Story

SMM Salem Masonry was founded in 2025 with a simple mission: to provide Salem homeowners and businesses with reliable, high-quality masonry services they can trust. We started as a small operation with one truck and a commitment to doing things the right way. Today, we are proud to be one of the most trusted masonry contractors in the Salem area, but we have never forgotten our roots or the values that got us here.

Our founder grew up watching skilled craftsmen restore historic buildings and knew from a young age that masonry was more than just a trade. It is an art form that requires patience, precision, and respect for materials. After years of training and working with experienced masons throughout Oregon, he decided to bring that expertise back to his hometown of Salem. We built our business on word-of-mouth referrals and a reputation for showing up on time, working hard, and treating every project like it was our own home.

What sets us apart is our genuine care for the community we serve. We are not just contractors passing through town. We live here, our families are here, and we see our work every day driving around Salem. That is why we take so much pride in every brick we lay, every chimney we repair, and every patio we build. When you hire SMM Salem Masonry, you are working with neighbors who truly care about the quality and longevity of your project. We want you to love your masonry work for decades to come, and we stand behind everything we do. Visit our homepage to learn more about our comprehensive services.

Certifications and Expertise

We hold all the necessary licenses and insurance required to operate as a masonry contractor in Oregon. Our team is fully bonded and insured, which means you are protected throughout the entire project. We maintain active certifications from the National Concrete Masonry Association and stay current with continuing education requirements to ensure we are using the latest techniques and materials in the industry.

Our masons have trained extensively in both traditional and modern masonry methods. We are experts in historic restoration work, which requires specialized knowledge of vintage materials and construction techniques. We have successfully restored brick buildings dating back to the early 1900s, matching original mortar colors and brick styles with incredible accuracy. We are also certified in contemporary masonry systems, including interlocking retaining wall blocks, paver installation, and manufactured stone veneer.

Safety is a top priority on every job site. Our crew completes regular OSHA safety training and follows strict protocols to protect both workers and property owners. We use the proper equipment, maintain clean work areas, and never cut corners when it comes to structural integrity. Over the years, we have earned recognition from local building inspectors for our attention to detail and code compliance. We have also been honored to work with several historic preservation societies in the Salem area, contributing our skills to maintain important landmarks for future generations. If you need expert brick repair and restoration, we are the team you can trust.

Our Commitment to You

When you choose SMM Salem Masonry, you are getting more than just skilled labor. You are getting a partner who is invested in the success of your project. We believe in transparent communication from start to finish. That means providing detailed written estimates, explaining your options clearly, and keeping you updated throughout the work. We never pressure you to make quick decisions or upsell services you do not need. Our goal is to give you all the information you need to make the best choice for your property and budget.

We also stand behind our work with solid warranties. If something goes wrong with our craftsmanship, we will come back and make it right at no additional cost. We use premium materials from trusted suppliers and follow manufacturer specifications to ensure your masonry stands up to Oregon weather. Rain, freeze-thaw cycles, and seasonal temperature changes can be tough on masonry, but we know how to build structures that last.

Our commitment extends beyond the job site. We believe in being good stewards of the environment and minimizing waste whenever possible. We recycle materials when we can and dispose of debris responsibly. We also support local suppliers and businesses because we know a strong local economy benefits everyone. Whether you are planning a small tuckpointing project or a complete outdoor kitchen installation, we are here to deliver exceptional results with integrity and professionalism. Thank you for considering SMM Salem Masonry for your next project.
