They came out the next day after I called about cracks near our foundation. The estimate was clear, the work was done in two days, and those doors that had been sticking for years close perfectly now. No upsell, no drama.
Marcus T., Fort Smith - Foundation repair
Our chimney mortar was basically crumbling when they got here. They matched the original mortar color exactly, and the whole job was wrapped up in a single day. Good crew, cleaned up after themselves.
Denise R., Van Buren - Tuckpointing
We wanted a stone patio and walkway leading to a new outdoor kitchen space. They did both at once, stayed on schedule, and the finished product looks like it belongs with the house. Worth every dollar.

When water gets into mortar joints and freezes, it expands - widening the crack a little more each cycle. Fort Smith winters swing above and below freezing repeatedly, which means local masonry deteriorates faster than in consistently cold or warm climates. Annual inspections catch the damage before it spreads.
Fort Smith sits on expansive clay that swells with moisture and shrinks when dry. That constant movement pulls at your foundation from below. Repairs anchored below the active clay layer - down to stable ground - hold up through the seasonal cycle; surface-only patches rarely do.
Yes. High winds and hail can knock off chimney caps, crack the concrete crown, and dislodge upper courses of brick. A missing cap lets rain run straight down the flue. A quick visual check from the ground after any major storm can catch damage before it compounds through the next rainy season.
Tuckpointing means removing crumbling mortar and packing in new material. You need it when the joints feel soft or look recessed from the surface. The Brick Industry Association recommends addressing open joints before they allow water into the wall structure.
Structural repairs - foundation work, chimney rebuilds, load-bearing wall replacements - typically require a permit from the City of Fort Smith Building Safety Division. Routine tuckpointing usually does not. Your contractor should confirm the requirement for your specific job and pull the permit before work begins.
Yes, and it matters more on Fort Smith's mid-century brick homes than anywhere else. Using modern hard mortar on soft, lime-based original brick causes the bricks themselves to crack - the mortar has no give. Matching the original mix in hardness and color is the correct approach and the one that actually lasts.

If you haven't had your chimney or foundation looked at in the past five years - or since you moved in - schedule one before the next heating season. Early problems are almost always cheaper to fix than late ones.
In most cases, yes. Original brick on a Fort Smith home from the 1940s or 1950s is often denser and higher-quality than modern replacement brick. Repair and restore whenever possible - it is usually cheaper, and the original material weathers better than new.
A $600 tuckpointing job left unaddressed for two wet winters can become a $6,000 wall rebuild. Water gets behind open joints, freezes, and pushes bricks apart. The longer the delay, the more material has to be removed and replaced.

Fort Smith is the second-largest city in Arkansas, with a population of around 89,000 and a location right on the Arkansas River at the Oklahoma state line. The city is the commercial hub for a wide region that stretches across both western Arkansas and eastern Oklahoma - which is exactly the area we serve. Fort Smith has a large stock of older homes, particularly in the neighborhoods near downtown and along the river, where brick construction from the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s is common.
Historic landmarks like the Fort Smith National Historic Site and Miss Laura's Visitor Center are part of the fabric of a city where historic masonry and older buildings matter. Neighborhoods surrounding Creekmore Park and the riverside districts are home to many of the brick houses and older chimneys we work on most often.
Fort Smith's expansive clay soils, freeze-thaw winters, and heavy spring rainfall create real and recurring masonry maintenance needs for local homeowners. Fort Smith Concrete & Masonry understands those conditions firsthand - we have been building and repairing masonry in this city since 2018, and every repair we do is built with Fort Smith's specific climate in mind.
