Our Services

We offer comprehensive masonry services for Independence homeowners and businesses. From repairs to new construction, our experienced team handles every project with precision and care.

Historic Downtown Independence Masonry

Independence has some of the most beautiful historic buildings in the Willamette Valley. Many homes and businesses in downtown Independence date back to the 1800s, featuring original brick facades and stone foundations that need specialized care. We work with these historic structures regularly, understanding how to preserve their character while making necessary repairs.

The older brick buildings near Monmouth Street often show signs of mortar deterioration from over a century of weather exposure. We carefully match historical mortar colors and textures, ensuring repairs blend seamlessly with original work. Your historic property deserves craftsmen who respect its heritage.

Whether you own one of the vintage homes near Riverview Park or manage a commercial building downtown, we bring the right expertise to your Independence project. Our team knows how to work with period-appropriate materials and techniques that honor the past while ensuring structural integrity for the future.

Willamette River Valley Properties

Independence sits right along the Willamette River, which creates unique challenges for masonry work. Properties near the riverfront deal with higher moisture levels and seasonal flooding concerns. We install proper drainage systems and waterproofing to protect your foundation and hardscaping from water damage.

The valley clay soil here shifts more than in neighboring towns like Monmouth or Salem. This means foundation work and retaining walls need extra attention to proper grading and drainage. We account for these local soil conditions in every project design and installation.

Many Independence homeowners want outdoor living spaces that take advantage of the beautiful river valley views. We build custom patios and outdoor kitchens designed to withstand our wet winters while providing perfect spots for summer entertaining. Your backyard can become your favorite room with the right hardscape design.

Our Process

Here is how we make your masonry project smooth and stress-free from start to finish.

Step 1: Free Consultation

We start with a detailed on-site visit to your Independence property. Our experienced mason examines your project, discusses your goals, and answers all your questions. We provide an honest assessment of the work needed and a transparent written estimate with no hidden fees. You will know exactly what to expect before we begin.

Residential Neighborhoods

Independence neighborhoods feature a diverse mix of home styles and ages. From the established properties near Independence Elementary to newer developments on the south end of town, each area has different masonry needs. We have worked in every part of Independence and understand what each neighborhood requires.

Many of the 1970s and 1980s homes throughout Independence need chimney repairs as original masonry reaches the end of its service life. Brick chimneys show cracks, loose mortar, and leaning that create safety hazards. We rebuild chimneys to current building codes while matching your home exterior perfectly.

Homeowners near Ash Creek want outdoor spaces that work with the natural landscape. We design and install stone patios, fire pits, and retaining walls that complement your property while managing the sloped terrain common in Independence. Your yard can become a beautiful, functional outdoor retreat with professional masonry work.

Small Town Service, Big Results

Independence maintains that welcoming small-town feel, and we treat every customer like a neighbor. We show up when we say we will, communicate clearly throughout your project, and stand behind our work with solid warranties. Your satisfaction is what builds our reputation in this close-knit community.

Many Independence residents work in Salem or Corvallis but choose to live here for the quieter lifestyle.
