We offer a wide range of residential masonry services in the Quebec region for houses and small buildings such as: laying of exterior brick, stone and concrete block cladding, masonry maintenance, waterproofing, caulking, chimney construction, installation stone panels, granite, limestone, marble, plaster etc.
Whether it is commercial or residential masonry, masonry includes the part of the building work that includes the construction of the foundations, the exterior facade as well as the large walls using elementary materials, or chimneys, as well as coating works.
Residential masonry therefore targets houses and small apartment buildings. Whether it is to create the house or to carry out improvement work (installation of brick for example), residential renovation, or aesthetic alterations, Maçonnerie Murphy is there to help and guide you.
The installation of exterior cladding is essential and not only for an aesthetic aspect. Exterior wall cladding, whether brick, stone or concrete block, protects your home from bad weather and we know that it is common in Quebec! The choice, although aesthetic, also depends on the climatic conditions of the region. When shopping, you must therefore take into account not only the standards in force in your municipality, but also durability and, as you can imagine, your budget.
Masonry maintenance always begins preventively. Our masonry company therefore offers this service to owners of houses and small apartment buildings. In Quebec, we strongly recommend at least one annual consultation, especially in the spring in order to see if the structure has been affected by the winter that has just ended.
The waterproofing of the foundations is often put aside by the builders who will prefer a simple tarring. Although this is a cost-saving solution, it will not resist cracking or damage over time. In addition, it will not effectively protect your house in the event of a strong presence of water as well as humidity around its foundations. Foundation waterproofing is therefore the only way to deal with these situations. This is very long-term protection for your home and the best choice for your health and that of your loved ones.
Caulking is an essential element in residential masonry and home construction. It is simply to prevent cold air from entering your home and warm air from escaping. This is an effective way to reduce heating costs. It is also a good way to reduce outside noise.
At Maçonnerie Murphy, we are able to build the best chimneys for you, whether in stone or brick. We are able to build you different types of chimneys: double-walled insulated chimneys, condensation chimneys, etc. You will be warm at all times.
The installation of stone, granite, or plaster panels is in fact one of the last touches that we bring to your home. First, there are architectural and aesthetic elements that have very little impact on the life of your home.
Maçonnerie Murphy benefits from more than a decade of experience in residential masonry. The reputation of the company has been forged over the years on honesty, the high level of professionalism as well as the superior quality of the services it offers.
From now on, each of the craftsmen and masons who work within the company shares the same enthusiasm as well as the same vision of the trade. The satisfaction of many customers generates in us a strong sense of pride in the work accomplished.
Whether you need to install stone or brick panels, exterior stone or brick cladding, caulking, waterproofing or masonry maintenance, you can trust us. Maçonnerie Murphy specializes in residential masonry and brick laying.
It is difficult to give an estimate of residential masonry costs because each construction is different. In addition, the needs of each client are different and we know how to adapt to different realities. The best way to get a detailed estimate is to contact us directly to submit your project and your expectations. We will then be able to tell you what needs to be done (brick installation, interior walls, masonry restoration, etc.) and how much it will all cost.
It depends on the type of residential masonry work you need. If it is heavy residential construction then you will need to be able to stay elsewhere for a while. But if we can do our jobs with little impact on your day-to-day life, then you can stay.
Absolutely! If we have to set up scaffolding, we make sure above all that they are properly installed, we also set up pedestrian passages and walkways so that everyone can circulate. We also install protective nets in order to protect not only our team of masons but also the inhabitants of the accommodation.
It is complicated to estimate the duration of residential masonry work without having information on their nature. Each commercial construction is unique and has specific needs. In addition, the duration depends above all on the nature of the residential masonry work required. The best way to estimate the duration is to contact us detailing your needs. Thus, we will have all the elements to give you a clear and precise answer for your case.
In Quebec, it is best to do residential masonry work between spring and fall (either from mid-March or the end of March and until the end of October). This is the best time to inspect your exterior door and window caulking joints, and the masonry in general.
Masonry projects can range from simple mortar replacement to structural reinforcement or even the complete construction of a wall. At Maçonnerie Murphy we can handle a wide range of masonry construction projects including brick work, block work, additions, kitchens, fireplaces, chimneys, garden paths, walkways, benches, chimneys, joints and much more!
