Masonry Care for Fulton's Older Homes
Fulton has a rich history that shows in the architecture. Many homes near Westminster College and throughout the older neighborhoods feature brick construction from the 1920s through 1950s. These properties have solid craftsmanship but need regular maintenance to keep them in good condition. The mortar joints between bricks deteriorate over time from weather exposure and need professional repointing to prevent bigger problems.
The compact clay soil common throughout Callaway County puts extra stress on foundations and retaining walls. This soil swells when it absorbs moisture and shrinks during dry periods. That constant movement creates pressure that can crack foundations and cause walls to lean or bow. We account for these soil conditions when we build new walls or repair existing structures, using proper footings and drainage that prevent future failures.
Many customers call us after noticing cracks in their brick veneer or loose mortar around windows and doors. These problems start small but get worse quickly once water finds a way inside the wall cavity. Our brick repair and restoration services stop the damage before it spreads. We remove deteriorated mortar, replace damaged bricks, and seal everything properly to protect your home for years to come.
Rural Properties and Large Lot Masonry Projects
Fulton sits at the heart of Callaway County, where many properties sit on larger lots with more land than typical suburban homes. These rural and semi-rural properties give homeowners room for outdoor features that really enhance quality of life. We build custom stone patios, outdoor kitchens, and fire pits that let you take full advantage of your space. With generous yards and beautiful Missouri countryside views, these features make perfect sense for Fulton families.
Properties with significant acreage often have elevation changes that require retaining walls for proper drainage and erosion control. Without these structures, heavy rains wash soil away and create gullies that damage your landscape. We design walls that blend with the natural terrain while providing the structural support your property needs. Natural stone works especially well in rural settings because it complements the countryside aesthetic.
Longer driveways on larger lots also need attention to their surface material and drainage. Paver driveways hold up better than asphalt in areas where tree roots or shifting soil cause movement. They also handle the weight of farm equipment and larger vehicles without cracking or breaking down. When a paver gets damaged, you can replace just that section instead of repaving the entire driveway.

We explain our findings in plain language and answer all your questions. You will receive a detailed written estimate that clearly outlines the scope of work and pricing with no surprises.
Chimney Services for Fulton Winters
Fulton gets cold winters where a working fireplace provides both warmth and ambiance. But chimneys exposed to Missouri weather need regular maintenance to stay safe and functional. The freeze-thaw cycles we experience from November through March cause the most damage. Water seeps into tiny cracks on warm days, then freezes solid at night and expands. This cycle breaks down chimney crowns, cracks bricks, and damages flashing where the chimney meets the roof.
We inspect chimneys throughout Fulton and find that most problems start small but quickly get worse without attention. A small crack in the crown lets water inside the chimney structure. That moisture damages the flue liner, rusts the damper, and eventually causes interior water stains on ceilings and walls. What starts as a minor repair can turn into a complete chimney rebuild if you wait too long.
Regular chimney inspections catch these issues early when repairs cost less and prevent bigger problems. We rebuild damaged crowns, replace deteriorated flashing, repoint brick chimneys, and install new caps that keep water and animals out. Your fireplace should be a source of comfort, not worry. Proper maintenance keeps your chimney safe and functional for your family to enjoy every winter.
