Brick and Block Masonry That Holds Up in Wayne's Climate
Nearly Two Decades of Experience with Retaining Walls and Chimney Repair
Wayne residents choose Mainline Outdoor Living Design for masonry work because nearly two decades of hands-on experience means fewer callbacks, tighter mortar joints, and structures that resist the region's freeze-thaw cycles. Whether it's a retaining wall to manage a sloped lot, chimney repair to address spalling brick, or a new block foundation for an outdoor structure, the company approaches each project with the same commitment to durability and craftsmanship.
Masonry in Wayne requires more than stacking brick or block. The area's seasonal temperature swings cause moisture to expand and contract within masonry units, leading to cracks and deterioration if joints aren't properly tooled and filled. Mainline Outdoor Living Design uses type N and type S mortars suited to the application, applies proper flashing where needed, and ensures that every course is level and plumb. Pointing work is executed with attention to joint depth and profile, restoring both structural integrity and visual consistency.
Retaining Walls Designed to Manage Grade and Drainage
Retaining walls in Wayne often serve a dual purpose: holding back soil on sloped properties while also directing runoff away from the home. Mainline Outdoor Living Design builds walls with proper backfill, weep holes, and compacted base layers to prevent bulging and failure. Block walls are reinforced as required, and brick walls are built with appropriate ties and flashing to manage moisture. The result is a structure that performs its function without requiring constant maintenance or repair.
Beyond structural requirements, retaining walls contribute to the overall aesthetic of the property. The company works with homeowners to select materials that complement existing masonry, whether that's tumbled block for a softer look or traditional brick for historic homes. Caps are installed to shed water, and joints are struck to match surrounding work. Every wall is built to local code and designed to last through Wayne's wet springs and cold winters.

Chimney Repair and Pointing with Attention to Detail
Chimneys take the brunt of Wayne's weather, and deteriorating mortar joints are one of the most common issues homeowners face. Mainline Outdoor Living Design handles chimney repair by removing damaged mortar to the correct depth, then repointing with fresh mortar that matches the original in color and texture. This process restores structural stability and prevents water intrusion that can lead to interior damage.
