Masonry Solutions for Mission's Unique Layout
Properties in Mission face specific challenges due to our location along the Rio Grande and the extensive irrigation canal system throughout the city. These water features affect soil moisture levels differently than in McAllen or Pharr. We design all our masonry work to account for this higher groundwater presence, ensuring your foundations and retaining walls stay stable year after year.
The mix of older ranch-style homes and newer master-planned communities in Mission creates diverse masonry needs. Homes built in the 1970s and 1980s often feature single-wythe brick construction that requires different repair techniques than modern double-wythe walls. We work with both construction styles regularly, understanding the structural differences and appropriate restoration methods for each era.

Your business storefront or office building makes an impression on customers every day. We deliver commercial masonry services that enhance your company's professional image while meeting all code requirements and standing up to heavy traffic.
The agricultural heritage of Mission means many properties feature older outbuildings and structures that need specialized masonry care. Whether you own a converted farmhouse or a modern home in a new subdivision, we bring the right expertise to your project. Our team adapts our approach based on your specific property type and construction era.
Popular Outdoor Living Projects in Mission
Mission homeowners love outdoor entertaining, and we build custom spaces that take full advantage of our pleasant weather. From simple patio extensions to elaborate outdoor kitchen setups, we create spaces where families actually want to spend time. The key is thoughtful design that considers how you will use the space, proper shade placement, and durable materials that look great for decades.
We see many requests for outdoor fireplace installations that create focal points for backyard gatherings. Even in South Texas, a fireplace extends your outdoor season and adds ambiance for evening events. We design these features for both beauty and function, incorporating seating walls and proper ventilation so your outdoor space works as well as it looks.
Paver driveways are increasingly popular in Mission's newer developments. They offer better drainage than concrete, handle soil movement well, and come in styles that complement any home architecture. We install these with proper base preparation and edge restraints, preventing the shifting and sinking that plague poorly installed paver systems. Your driveway should last as long as your home with minimal maintenance.
Retaining walls serve both practical and aesthetic purposes in Mission. Whether you need to level a sloped yard, create planting beds, or prevent erosion near irrigation canals, we engineer walls that solve your specific problem. We work with natural stone, manufactured block, and poured concrete, recommending the best solution based on your property's needs and your design preferences.
Our Process
Free On-Site Consultation
We start every project with a visit to your Mission property. During this free consultation, we examine your masonry needs, take measurements, and discuss your goals. We look for any underlying issues that might not be obvious at first glance, like drainage problems or structural concerns. You will get honest advice about what needs immediate attention and what can wait. We explain everything in plain language so you understand exactly what work your property needs and why it matters.
Protecting Your Investment with Proper Drainage
The proximity to irrigation canals and the Rio Grande makes drainage planning critical for masonry projects in Mission. Water pooling against foundations or retaining walls causes long-term damage that starts small but grows expensive quickly. We evaluate grade slopes and water flow patterns during every consultation, designing solutions that keep moisture away from your structures.
Many Mission properties built before 2000 lack adequate foundation drainage systems. Adding proper drainage when we perform foundation repairs or waterproofing prevents future problems and protects your home's structural integrity. French drains, surface grading adjustments, and strategic landscaping all work together to manage water effectively around your property.
Retaining walls need weep holes and backfill drainage to prevent hydrostatic pressure buildup. Without these features, water pressure behind the wall can cause bulging, cracking, or complete failure. We build every retaining wall with proper drainage considerations, using gravel backfill and drainage pipes that move water away from the structure. This engineering approach ensures your investment lasts.
Patio and walkway installations require consideration of how water will move across these surfaces during heavy rains. We slope pavers and concrete work slightly to direct water toward drainage areas, preventing pooling that can cause erosion or foundation issues. These details might seem minor, but they make the difference between masonry that lasts decades and work that needs repair within a few years.
Choosing Materials That Thrive in Mission's Climate
Not all masonry materials perform equally well in South Texas conditions. The combination of intense heat, high humidity near the river, and occasional temperature drops requires careful material selection. We only recommend products we trust on our own properties, materials with proven track records in similar climates. This ensures your investment delivers years of trouble-free performance.
For outdoor projects, we discuss heat reflection and absorption properties of different materials. Some darker pavers and stones absorb so much heat they become uncomfortable to walk on during summer afternoons. Lighter colors and certain textures stay cooler while still providing the durability you need. We help you balance aesthetic preferences with practical considerations for how you actually use your space.
Mortar selection matters just as much as the brick or stone itself. We use mortar mixes appropriate for your climate zone and building type, with proper lime content for flexibility and breathability. Modern masonry cements perform differently than historical lime mortars, and we match the mortar type to your structure's age and construction method. This attention to compatibility prevents premature failure and expensive repairs.
We source materials from suppliers who stand behind their products with real warranties. Whether you choose natural stone, manufactured pavers, traditional brick, or modern engineered materials, you get quality products that will perform well in Mission's specific environment. We explain the advantages and limitations of each option so you make informed decisions about your masonry project.
