What it is, and why it matters.
A home inspector looks at the whole house. A masonry inspection looks closely at the brick, stone, block, chimney, flashing, foundation walls and retaining walls, and explains what is cosmetic, what needs watching and what needs repair now.
We inspect masonry for buyers, sellers, owners and property managers in Nashville and across Middle Tennessee. Each inspection ends with photos, plain-language notes and a ranked list of repairs, with ballpark costs where we can give them.

Masonry Inspections and Reports: common questions
Is a masonry inspection different from a home inspection?
Yes. A home inspector covers the whole house. A masonry inspection looks closely at brick, stone, block and chimneys, and gives repair guidance.
Can you tell me how much repairs will cost?
Often we can give ballpark ranges for common repairs, and a full written estimate follows for any work you want done.
How do I get a price for masonry inspections and reports?
Fill in the form or call or text 615-431-3789. We confirm what is involved and send a written price, and most projects start with a free visit.
