Noblesville masonry contractor since 2013
I started Crown Noblesville Concrete and Masonry in Noblesville in 2013 after learning the trade under an older mason, and we're a fully licensed and insured masonry contractor. We're best known for finding out why brick, block or stone is failing and fixing what's behind it, across 16 services and the 12 cities with pages on this site. I'm the one who comes out to look at your job, and our own crew of masons does the work with me on it. You can read more about me and our crew.
Masonry work we do around Noblesville
We repair and build brick, block, stone and concrete, from chimneys and foundations to walls and driveways. Price turns on what's behind the damage, the size and materials, and the schedule on weather and permit review, so I put both in writing at the estimate.
We track down why a foundation wall cracked or bowed before touching it, then tell you whether patching the block will hold or a section needs rebuilding.
Loose bricks, a cracked cap and leaks around the chimney get fixed at the source, and we'll tell you whether repointing is enough or the top needs rebuilding.
We grind out worn mortar and pack in new joints matched to your brick's color, so the wall sheds water again and the repair blends in instead of standing out.
Cracked, flaking or loose bricks get cut out and replaced, and we look for salvaged or matching brick so a patch on an older wall doesn't stick out.
We build paver driveways on a dug-out, packed base so they stay level under your cars, and you pick brick or concrete pavers and the pattern.
For a sloped yard or a bed that keeps washing out, we build block or stone retaining walls with drainage behind them so water doesn't push them over.
Older brick and stone homes get cleaned, repaired and repointed with mortar soft enough for old brick, so the house keeps its look and the masonry holds up.
We build masonry fireplaces indoors or out, in brick or stone, and walk you through the size and face that suits the room before we lay a brick.
Stone veneer gives a wall, column or fireplace the look of stone at less weight, and you can choose natural stone or manufactured stone to fit your budget.
We lay concrete block walls for garages, sheds, screens and backyard projects, and you can leave the block plain or finish it with stucco or veneer.
We lay new block foundation walls for additions, garages and rebuilt sections, filling and reinforcing the block where your plans call for it so the wall carries its load.
We build the brick, block or stone base for your grill, counters and bar, and help you pick a layout and finish that fits how you cook outside.
Walkways in pavers, brick, stone or poured concrete go down on a packed base, so your path from the drive to the door stays even and drains.
We lay new brick walls for gardens, entries and additions, and we'll match your house's brick and mortar color when you want the new wall to look like it belongs.
We build and repair natural stone walls, steps and columns by hand, and you can pick a rough fieldstone look or cut stone with tighter joints.
When only some joints have let go, we repoint just those areas and tell you plainly if the rest of the wall can wait.

Masonry questions from Noblesville homeowners
Do I need a permit for masonry work in Noblesville?
It depends on the job, so I check with the city or county office for your address before we set a start date. In Noblesville, the city's building division reviews and inspects residential projects like additions, remodels and accessory structures, and permit documents have to be approved before any construction begins. When a permit's needed, we handle the application.
What causes cracked brick and crumbling mortar joints?
Usually it's water or movement, and the shape of the crack tells me which one. Water that soaks into joints and freezes in winter wears mortar out, while settling ground or wet soil pushing on a wall shows up as cracks that step through the joints. I find the cause first, because a patch over it just cracks again.
Can my masonry repair wait, or does it need fixing now?
Often it can wait, and I'll tell you plainly when it does. Hairline cracks and a few worn joints are usually worth watching, while loose brick, a leaking chimney or a wall that's bowing should be looked at soon, because water and movement make it worse. I'd rather tell you to wait than sell you work you don't need yet.

Yes, we're based in Noblesville and work in the cities around it, from Carmel and Fishers out to Anderson and Tipton. The cities on this site aren't the only ones we serve, so if you're not sure we come out your way, call (317) 214-8382 and ask.
