Masonry Restoration & Repair
There are many advantages to owning a brick home. In order to keep that brick in tip-top shape, however, you need to make sure that it is properly maintained.
For instance, bricks need to be repointed every 20-30 years, the average lifespan of mortar.
Repointing, also sometimes called tuckpointing, involves removing the outer portion of the mortar, which is often cracking or flaking, and replacing it with new mortar.
Our masonry specialists can not only repoint a home, but can also repair or replace bricks as needed. If water damage or other issues are causing your bricks to crumble and spall, we have the experience and know how to get the job done and get it done right to restore your masonry.
We can also construct new brick chimneys or other structures such as retaining walls that are both strong and pleasing to the eye.
If your brickwork needs repair, call Reliable today.
Foundation Repair in Chesterfield County, Va.
When foundations begin to settle and fail, it can cause a host of problems.
Cracks can appear in your basement or slab floor. Your chimney might begin to lean. Issues with your foundation being out of alignment can truly impact just about every portion of your house.
And while getting your foundation problems fixed might be daunting, the alternative is worse. The foundation problems aren’t going to repair themselves, and neither will the problems that they cause.
They’ll only get worse.
While we tailor each foundation repair solution to the individual home, two of our most common foundation repair methods are helical piers and push piers.
In both of these cases, piers are sunk or drilled into the ground around the perimeter of your home until the piers reach a load-bearing strata of soil — one that is able to support the weight of your house with a stability that the soil immediately underneath it can not. The weight of your home in then transferred onto the piers via brackets connected to your footings.
At Reliable Waterproofing & Masonry, we make sure that all the products we use are, in fact, reliable. That is why we get our piers from industry leader Earth Contact Products. We know they put as much focus on the quality of their products as we do on the quality of our workmanship.

Basement Waterproofing Solutions
We have met too many people who have put up with water getting into their basement for far too long before finally deciding enough is enough.
You don’t have to hold your breath every time a storm passes through. You don’t have to elevate everything stored downstairs off the ground in order to keep it from getting ruined. And best of all, you can finish your basement (or enjoy your already finished basement) without the threat of having to rip out wet, moldy carpeting on an annual basis.
We make sure to offer multiple waterproofing methods so we can pick the right one for your home and the specific water problems you are experiencing.
Perhaps the best solution will be directing water that has seeped into the basement walls to a drainage pipe and then into a sump pump. Perhaps an exterior drain or waterproofing membrane is called for.
Regardless, we have the equipment and expertise to give you a basement that stays dry.
