Expert Masonry Restoration & Historic Preservation
Preserving the integrity, craftsmanship, and character of historic and aging structures through specialized masonry restoration and architectural repair.
about
Built on Experience. Driven by Preservation.
At Heritage, our work begins where most contractors stop.
We specialize in the restoration and preservation of masonry structures — bringing aging buildings back to life while maintaining their original character and structural integrity. From historic facades to detailed architectural elements, our approach is rooted in craftsmanship, precision, and respect for the materials we work with.
While many focus on new construction, our expertise lies in understanding how buildings were originally built — and how to restore them properly.

What Our Clients Say
Jonathan and Sal are absolutely wonderful. They tuckpointed our 1883 cream city brick building. It was a wonderful experience, they were professional, kind, and on time. They were very affordable, and when we needed to add on even more work, they fit everything in, and quoted us a great price for the additional work. We look forward to working with them in the future!
I really appreciate the hard work and love Jonathan and Sal put into my building. I highly recommend them, as not only do they do a great job as Masons but they are also very kind and gracious people.
Did good work. Came all the way out to Manitowoc, so they are willing to travel. I appreciate that the owners of the company are the ones doing the work. It's hard to find honest workers nowadays, but they knocked it out of the park.
Had a great experience having tuck-pointing and brick repair work done by Heritage Masons. Jon and Sal did a great job matching the existing mortar and resetting some loose bricks. They communicated well, cleaned up after the job and overall were very professional.
Appreciated Jon & Sal's courtesy, professionalism & interest in working on our cream city brick building with Milwaukee history. They communicated well during our 5 day tuck pointing project.
