MASONRY SERVICES
Masons are trained to work with clay bricks, concrete blocks, and natural stones. Many masons start out as bricklayers learning the craft by building brick walls and chimneys before further specializing as a mason where they work with natural stones and learn more advance techniques. Masons can do a wide variety of projects including laying bricks and blocks, repairing chimneys, tuckpointing and repairing failed mortar joints, building stone retaining walls, and laying natural stone paths.
How to start planning a masonry renovation project
Is the bulging wall on your newly acquired fixer-upper giving you pause? Maybe you’d like to incorporate decorative stones into your landscaping project or install granite countertops in your kitchen. From how to find a masonry contractor to an overview of what you can expect once construction is underway, Smart Reno can help you through your masonry renovation planning process in three simple steps:
Plan ahead
Use this guide to learn more about masonry projects and determine whether you will require masonry repair, new construction, or a combination of both.
Define a realistic budget
Ensure that you set aside sufficient funds for your masonry renovation. Masonry work is complex and utilizes more expensive materials than many other home renovations.
Compare several contractors
Finding the best bricklayer or mason for the job isn’t just about the price tag. Look into the years of experience your contractor has under their toolbelt, as well as the masonry work they have done in the past. Talk to your prospective mason about providing you with a revised estimate after making a home visit.

MASONRY COSTS
The cost of a mason can range widely, depending on the nature of your renovations. Maintenance work like brick sealing or brick repointing will cost less than repairing a bulging wall or replacing deteriorating bricks. The cost of bricks is only a small part of the price for building a retaining wall. You will be paying for materials used in masonry as well as bricklaying skill, knowledge, and expertise. A more experienced and specialized mason will charge a higher rate than a bricklayer just out of an apprenticeship.

MASONRY FAQS
How long does it usually take to renovate and remodel a bathroom?
It usually takes us 23 days to remodel a full bathroom, provided there are no changes requested in the middle of renovation work. This excludes weekend work. Once we discuss your design and specifications with you, we will provide you with a project timeline that’s in line with the work that you want to be done.
Do I need to apply for any permits to renovate a bathroom?
There is no need to apply for a permit for bathroom renovations if you’re in Toronto. However, if the space is a new addition to your home, you will need to secure a permit. We can assist you with this process so you can sit back and relax.
Can I place new tiles over the old ones that are in my bathroom?
This depends on the current state of your flooring and the weight of the tiles that you want to place over them. We have years of experience dealing with different types of bathroom flooring, so you can rest assured that, given favourable conditions, we can get this done seamlessly.
Can I place heating in my bathroom?
Yes, you can, and we can help you get this done with ease. There are a few options that we recommend to improve the heating situation in your bathroom. Here are some of them:
- Install electrically powered heated coils and tubing under your flooring
- Install a heat lamp (recommended for bathrooms with standard-height ceilings)
