A&A Masonry

I have a water leak problem above the foundation when it rains. When I opened up the drywall around the problem area in the basement, I can see the water is leaking in around the I-beam support, an area where the bricks and the foundation meets. I called A&A Masonry and they responded in a very timely manner. Nigel came to take a look and suggested to open up a couple layers of bricks just above the foundation in order to determine the problem. He also suggested to replace the brick window sill with a piece of stone in that area because water can also leak in around the brick window sill.
It's a small job and the estimate is around $3,000 plus material cost.
Tera is assigned for this job, she is friendly and very pleasant to talk to. Tera keeps me informed of the progress and after opening some bricks, she found a hole where the I-beam support sits and there is no cement around it. It is just very poor workmanship by the builder of the home. Tera informed me what she will do to fix it, She used hydraulic cement to plug up the hole and put new vapor barrier back on properly. She put the bricks back with proper weeping holes in the problem area. She also came to the basement and put some hydraulic cement around the area where the I-beam sits. There is no major rainfall after the work is done, but time will tell. In general, I found A&A Masonry is very professional and responsive. Thank you to Tera for her work.
