Why Auburn Hills Trusts Top Hat Masonry's Repair Services


Deep Experience With Residential Masonry Restoration

Top Hat Masonry Repair has built a reputation across Oakland County by delivering consistent, high-quality residential masonry restoration work. We understand how Michigan's winters and moisture cycles wear down brick, stone, and concrete over time, and we factor that knowledge into every repair plan we put together.

Detailed Inspections Before Any Work Starts

We don't guess at what a masonry repair job needs. Every project begins with a hands-on evaluation of the existing structure to pinpoint the actual cause of the damage. That way, you get a repair plan built around what your home actually requires, along with a clear explanation of the process before work ever begins.

Precise Material and Color Matching

Quality masonry repair should blend in, not stand out. Our team uses carefully selected brick, stone, and mortar admixtures to match the color and texture of your home's existing masonry as closely as possible, so repaired sections look like a natural extension of the original structure rather than a patch job.

Clear Communication From Start to Finish

Auburn Hills homeowners choose Top Hat Masonry Repair for more than just the finished results. We show up on schedule, keep you informed throughout the project, and follow through on the timelines we set. You'll always know where your project stands and what to expect next.

Warning Signs Your Home Needs Masonry Repair


Masonry is durable, but it isn't indestructible. Auburn Hills' cold winters and freeze-thaw cycles are especially hard on brick, mortar, and concrete — and small cosmetic issues often point to bigger structural problems underneath.

Watch for these common warning signs:

  • Crumbling, cracked, or missing mortar between bricks or stones
  • Spalling brick, where the face of the brick flakes, peels, or breaks off
  • Efflorescence — the chalky white residue left behind by water moving through masonry
  • Cracked or heaving concrete driveways, patios, steps, or walkways
  • Damaged chimney crowns, caps, or masonry surrounding the firebox
  • Bulging, leaning, or bowed sections of brick or stone walls
  • Moisture stains or water infiltration on interior walls near masonry

If you're seeing any of these issues at your Auburn Hills property, schedule an inspection with Top Hat Masonry Repair. We'll assess the full scope of the damage and walk you through your repair options.

FAQs About Masonry Repair in Auburn Hills, MI

What masonry repair services does Top Hat Masonry Repair offer in Auburn Hills?

We provide a complete range of residential masonry services in Auburn Hills, including chimney repair and cleaning, brick repair, tuckpointing, concrete services, stone masonry, and porch repair. Every project starts with an assessment so we can recommend the right scope of work, whether you need a small repair or a more extensive masonry restoration.

How often should chimney cleaning and inspection happen in Auburn Hills?

Most homeowners in Auburn Hills should have their chimney inspected and cleaned annually, ideally before the heating season begins. Regular chimney cleaning removes creosote buildup and helps our team catch early signs of mortar deterioration, cracked crowns, or flue damage before they turn into more expensive repairs.

Is tuckpointing the same as brick repair?

Not exactly.

  • Tuckpointing specifically refers to removing deteriorated mortar joints and replacing them with fresh, color-matched mortar to reinforce a wall's structural integrity.
  • Brick repair is a broader term that can include tuckpointing along with replacing damaged or missing bricks, fixing spalling surfaces, and addressing other forms of brick masonry damage.

Our team will identify which service, or combination of services, your Auburn Hills home actually needs.

Why does my concrete driveway keep cracking every winter?

Auburn Hills' freeze-thaw cycles are usually the culprit. When water seeps into small cracks in concrete and then freezes, it expands and widens those cracks, and the cycle repeats each winter until the damage becomes significant. Our concrete services address existing cracks and install properly reinforced concrete designed to better withstand Michigan's seasonal temperature swings.

Can Top Hat Masonry Repair match older or historic brick and stone?

In most cases, yes. Matching new masonry work to existing brick, stone, and mortar is a core part of what we do on every residential masonry repair project. We use color-matched mortar and carefully sourced materials to blend repairs into your home's existing structure.

While an exact match isn't always guaranteed with rare or historic materials, our experience across a wide variety of brick and stone types allows us to achieve results that hold up visually over time.

Adam P.'s Rating
Top Hat Masonry has been an extraordinarily helpful service in the seasonal maintenance of Somerset Park Apartments. All I have to do is make a phone call, circle a couple of areas on a map, and rest assured the job will be done properly within the timelines specified. "It’s nice to see a contractor that shows up and does the job he bids, and also nice seeing the guy who gave you the price doing the job. I have yet to pay out a job that I feel Top Hat hasn’t earned every penny of. I have actually received phone calls from tenants within our complex that have commented on how friendly, professional and hard working Top Hat Masonry is, which is a bizarre twist as tenants usually complain about any services that impede their walkway, doorway, etc. From sidewalk flat work, brickwork, chimney repairs, dumpster pads, tuck-pointing, and various other masonry jobs, I am yet to be disappointed.

The team at Top Hat are intelligent, honest, and hardworking, which are traits that are often hard to find. We look forward to working with Top Hat Masonry in the future. Chris P.

We had a concrete front porch that was an eyesore and detracted from our house; It needed a facelift. Chris came to the house examined the work to be done and gave us an estimate for materials, and labor and a date that he would start. He also made suggestions regarding the stone to be used and how we should lay out the job. He started the job on time, laid the stone out in a way that the many colors of bluestone blended together, and finished on time. Once done he brought his power washer and cleaned our driveway and surrounding area. Our front porch is now one of the more attractive aspects of our house. We would gladly recommend Chris to anyone needing superior stonework at a fair price. Bill & Kathy H.
