Historic Building Restoration in Downtown Martinez

Downtown Martinez features beautiful historic buildings along Main Street and around the County Courthouse that date back to the 1800s. Many of these brick structures need periodic maintenance to preserve their character and structural integrity. The coastal influence from the Carquinez Strait brings moisture that accelerates mortar deterioration compared to inland areas like Concord or Pleasant Hill. We regularly work on historic commercial buildings, old homes in the Alhambra Valley area, and waterfront properties near the marina. Your historic Martinez property deserves restoration work that respects the original craftsmanship while ensuring it remains solid for future generations.

Retaining Walls for Martinez Hillside Properties

Our team works on hillside properties throughout Martinez, particularly in neighborhoods like Vine Hill and along Franklin Canyon Road. These sloped lots require engineered retaining walls to prevent erosion and create usable yard space. The clay soil in Martinez expands when wet and contracts when dry, putting stress on retaining structures. We design walls with proper drainage and reinforcement to handle these seasonal changes. Many properties also need terraced landscaping solutions that work with the natural topography. Our patio installations often integrate with retaining walls to maximize outdoor living space on challenging sites.

Our Process

We keep every masonry project organized and professional for Martinez property owners. Here is what happens from start to finish when you work with us.

On-Site Inspection and Consultation

We visit your Martinez property to assess the masonry needs and understand your goals. During this visit, we inspect the current condition, take measurements, and discuss your options. You get honest feedback about what work is necessary and what can wait. We answer all your questions and explain everything in terms that make sense. This consultation gives us what we need to prepare an accurate estimate.

Chimney Services for Martinez Homes

Many Martinez homes built in the 1950s through 1980s have aging chimneys that need attention. The combination of salt air from the nearby strait and seasonal temperature changes causes accelerated deterioration of brick and mortar. We regularly rebuild chimneys in neighborhoods throughout Martinez, from the older homes near downtown to properties in the Alhambra Heights area. Common problems include cracking from settling, water intrusion through damaged crowns, and mortar joints that have deteriorated to the point where bricks are loose. Your chimney needs professional assessment if you notice any signs of damage, because waiting only makes repairs more expensive and potentially dangerous.
