Masonry In Orrville, Ohio

Your Orrville Masonry Contractor

Orrville sits about twelve minutes east of us, and we are in town often. It is a working community built around the railroad and around Smucker's, and the housing reflects it: solid brick and block homes from the industrial era along Main Street and the side streets off it, plus farms spreading out in every direction past the city limits. If you have been to the Rib and Music Fest or the Fourth of July fireworks, you have spent an evening surrounded by brickwork that is a hundred years old and mostly holding up fine.

Cougar Masonry brings the full trade to Orrville: new brick, block, and natural or cultured stone, chimney rebuilds and repair, retaining walls and patios, tuckpointing and restoration, block foundations and building erections, and basements and new additions. One crew handles your project start to finish, with a free written estimate up front and a final walkthrough at the end.

The older homes near the center of Orrville were built when brick was cheap and skilled labor was local, which means the original work is usually good and the failures are almost always water related. Open joints, failed crowns, and missing flashing let water into a wall that would otherwise last another century. Out on the farms the work is different: block foundations, footers, and clear span or hoop buildings that have to be square and level the first time because nothing about a pole barn forgives a bad footer.
