Your Local Team for Brick and Stone Work That Actually Lasts
A few months ago, we were walking near the Fox River after finishing a small job, and a homeowner stopped us. He said, “Are you the Masonry Contractor that fixed my neighbor’s chimney?” Turns out, he’d been watching us work for two days and had his own cracked bricks staring at him every time he pulled into the driveway.
That’s how most of our projects start here in Batavia, IL. Neighbors talking to neighbors. At Luxury Construction HC LLC, we’re used to that. Homes here have character. Solid brick. Real stone. And when something starts to shift or crack, you notice it right away. We’re proud to be the Masonry Contractor local families call when they want it fixed the right way, not patched up.
What We Fix and Build Around Here
Brick Repair
Last spring, a family called us after spotting loose bricks near their front steps. The freeze and thaw cycles had pushed mortar out, and the bricks were starting to wiggle. Our Brick Repair work wasn’t just about making it look nice again. We carefully removed damaged mortar, matched the color, and reset the bricks so the entry felt solid underfoot. Now it looks like the problem never happened.
Chimney Repair Service
Chimneys around here take a beating from wind and snow. We handled a Chimney Repair Service job where water had been sneaking in through cracked crown mortar. The homeowner noticed damp spots in the attic. We rebuilt the top section and sealed it up tight. No more leaks. And no more worrying every time it rains or snows.
Retaining Wall Installation
Yards with slopes are common, especially closer to the river. One couple wanted to turn their uneven backyard into a flat space for their kids. Our Retaining Wall Installation gave them that level area. We built it with proper drainage so water flows away, not into the wall. Now they’ve got a safe place for a swing set and weekend cookouts.
Retaining Wall Repair
We’ve also seen walls lean after years of pressure from wet soil. A homeowner called when their old block wall started tilting forward. Our Retaining Wall Repair process meant taking down the failing section, correcting the base, and rebuilding it stronger. It’s not glamorous work, but it keeps everything behind that wall safe and steady.
Masonry Restoration
Some homes here have beautiful older brick that just needs care, not replacement. Our Masonry Restoration projects usually involve cleaning, repointing mortar joints, and replacing only the bricks that are too far gone. We worked on a house near downtown where the brick had faded and joints were crumbling. After restoration, the home kept its history but felt sturdy again.
Masonry Repair
Masonry Repair can mean a lot of things. Cracked garage walls. Loose stone on a porch. Damaged mortar on a foundation. One homeowner thought they had a foundation issue, but it turned out to be surface mortar failing. We repaired the joints and sealed vulnerable spots. Simple fix, big relief for them.
Chimney Cap Installation
You’d be surprised how many chimneys here are missing a proper cap. We did a Chimney Cap Installation for a family who kept hearing scratching sounds. Turns out birds had easy access. We installed a stainless cap that keeps out animals and rain while letting smoke vent safely. Small upgrade, but it saves a lot of future trouble.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work on older homes in Batavia, IL?
Yes, we do a lot of work on older brick homes in the area. Many just need careful Masonry Repair or repointing, not full replacement. We take time to match materials so the repair blends in with the original look.
How long does a typical chimney repair take?
Most Chimney Repair Service jobs take one to three days, depending on the damage and weather. Small fixes like crown repairs are quicker, while rebuilds take longer. We’ll give you a clear timeline before we start.
What affects the cost of hiring a Masonry Contractor?
Cost depends on the size of the area, the condition of the brick or stone, and how easy it is to access. A small Brick Repair near the ground will cost less than rebuilding a tall chimney. We always provide a detailed estimate so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
