Trusted Masonry Contractors Near You 

Our Masonry Services

We offer a full lineup of masonry services near you, including repair and restoration work for historic homes and newer construction. Our services include: 

• Brickwork and tuckpointing: We fix cracked, bowing or deteriorating brick and block on homes throughout neighborhoods like the West Bluff Historic District. 
• Chimney repair and rebuilds: We restore chimneys damaged by freeze-thaw cycles through our Peoria chimney repair and rebuild services. Our crews repair crowns, flashing and mortar joints to keep chimneys safe and functional.
• Retaining walls: We design and install brick, block or stone retaining walls that manage sloped yards and prevent erosion. These walls stabilize the terrain, which creates level, usable land for your property. They can also offer drainage benefits, such as releasing water through weep holes at the base.
• Foundation tuckpointing and waterproofing: We seal basement walls through our foundation repair and waterproofing work. Keep water out of your basement and protect your property’s structure for the long term.

Proudly Serving Central Illinois

Our work extends across Peoria County and into nearby towns, including East Peoria, Bartonville, Dunlap, Chillicothe and Washington. Whether you’re in a historic district near downtown or a newer development on the edge of the county, our crews are familiar with the soil conditions and building styles common to the region.

Why Homeowners Choose Force Masonry Construction

Our team has spent years working on pre-1993 block foundations and century-old brick exteriors, so we recognize the difference between a cosmetic crack and a structural warning sign. That experience shapes every estimate we provide, allowing us to be efficient in finding the root cause of the issue and fixing it correctly.

We’re also insured and up front about the scope before work begins. We are a masonry company near you that offers straightforward answers, written estimates and a crew that treats every property with care.
