Red brick Craftsman bungalow in Milford, Ohio, with newly rebuilt brick porch steps and cheek walls

General Contractor in Milford, Ohio

From Main Street brick to bungalow porch steps, we fix the masonry and run the rest of the job.

A river town with old masonry

Milford grew up on the Little Miami, and houses on low ground show it in damp basements and salt on the brick.

We fix the water first, then the masonry.

★★★★★

“We inherited a historic home with a failing stone foundation. Swiss Masonry worked with our structural engineer and the city’s historic preservation office without us having to babysit a single conversation. They know how to work with old buildings. Highly recommend.”

What Milford homeowners ask

Can you be my general contractor in Milford, Ohio?

Why is my Milford basement damp after rain?

Usually a downspout emptying at the wall or soil sloping toward the house. Fix that first, then repoint the stone or parge the block.
