"The chimney had been leaking for two rainy seasons before I finally called. They came out, found the problem the same week, and had the mortar repaired and the cap replaced before November. No water inside the fireplace this winter."
"I had three different contractors look at a crack in my retaining wall. Two of them just wanted to patch it. These guys explained that the soil behind the wall was the real issue, built a new drainage channel, and rebuilt the wall section properly. It held through a wet winter without shifting."
"Our driveway pavers looked great when they were done - the crew matched the color well and the pattern ties in with the front walkway. The job finished on the day they said it would, which I appreciated because I had taken the day off to be home."

A few honest answers to the questions homeowners in this area ask most.
Citrus Heights gets most of its rain from November through March. Water pushes into any crack or failed mortar joint all winter. When it dries out in spring, the damage becomes visible - white staining, wider cracks, spalling brick faces.
Yes. The Sacramento Valley has expansive clay soils that swell when wet and shrink when dry. That seasonal movement is the leading cause of cracked driveways, shifting retaining walls, and reopening foundation cracks in this area.
Sacramento Valley summers above 100 degrees dry out mortar and caulking faster, accelerate spalling in bricks that have absorbed moisture, and can cause new mortar to cure too fast if a contractor doesn't manage it. Heat stress is real here.
A crack that grows over time, affects multiple rooms, or appears after the wet season is worth investigating. A crack that appears once in a hairline and hasn't changed in years is usually cosmetic. When in doubt, a free assessment costs nothing.
Routine tuckpointing and minor repairs generally don't. Structural work - foundation piers, chimney rebuilds, retaining walls over a certain height - typically requires a permit from the City of Citrus Heights Building Division. A good contractor handles this for you.
Tuckpointing removes and replaces worn mortar joints - the gray lines between bricks. Brick replacement is needed when the bricks themselves are cracked, spalling, or missing. Often a wall needs both, but tuckpointing alone handles the majority of cases.
The Brick Industry Association publishes technical notes on mortar selection, repair methods, and material standards that any homeowner can read for free.

If the bricks themselves are intact and only the mortar is failing, tuckpointing is almost always the right call - it is a fraction of the cost of replacement. Replace individual bricks only when they are spalling, cracked through, or structurally compromised.
Water gets further in each winter. What is a mortar repair today becomes a brick replacement job next year, and a wall rebuild the year after that. The cost curve on masonry damage goes up steeply when water has been working on a wall for multiple seasons.
Verify their California contractor's license on the CSLB website before signing anything. Ask for a written, itemized estimate. If a contractor quotes a large job without doing an on-site inspection first, treat that as a warning sign.
The California Contractors State License Board lets you verify any contractor's license, check for complaints, and confirm their insurance in under a minute - use it before you hire anyone. Ready to get a real look at your masonry? Call (916) 618-0266 for a free on-site estimate.
Citrus Heights is a city of about 87,000 people in Sacramento County, incorporated in 1997 but built out mostly between the 1950s and 1980s during the postwar suburban expansion of the Sacramento region. You can learn more about the city's history and character at the City of Citrus Heights official website and on the Citrus Heights Wikipedia page. Most of the homes here are single-story ranch-style houses on modest lots, and at 40 to 70 years old, they are at the age where foundations, chimneys, brick walls, and concrete flatwork commonly need attention.
Landmarks like Rusch Community Park and the Sunrise MarketPlace corridor along Sunrise Boulevard are central reference points for most residents. Greenback Lane runs east-west through much of the city, and the neighborhoods on either side of it - from older streets near Antelope Road to newer areas closer to Folsom - all have the same core challenge: clay-heavy soil that shifts with the seasons and aging masonry that reflects decades of Sacramento Valley weather. According to U.S. Census data, more than half of Citrus Heights homes are owner-occupied, which means residents have a direct stake in maintaining and protecting their properties.
The National Weather Service Sacramento office forecasts the pattern that drives most masonry damage here - heavy rain from November through March, followed by long, hot summers that push past 100 degrees. That cycle expands and contracts the clay soil under homes year after year, and it is the main reason foundation movement, failing mortar joints, and cracked concrete flatwork are so common in this city. Citrus Heights Concrete & Masonry has been working in Citrus Heights since 2016 and understands these conditions - it shapes how we choose repair methods, schedule jobs, and select materials on every project we take on here.
