“I had noticed cracks along my chimney for two seasons and kept putting off the call. The crew came out, showed me exactly what was happening, and finished the tuckpointing in a day and a half. The mortar color matches so well I can barely find where the repair is.”
James R., Chino Hills - Tuckpointing
“We had a retaining wall on our hillside lot that started leaning after the wet winter. From the estimate to the finished wall took about two weeks total, and they handled the permit with the city. No headaches on my end - just a solid wall.”
Maria T., Diamond Bar - Retaining Wall Construction
“Our foundation had a few worrying cracks and some doors that started sticking. The inspection was thorough and they explained every step before starting. The doors close normally again and they gave me a written warranty I can pass on if we ever sell.”
Kevin L., Chino - Foundation Repair

Water is the single biggest enemy of masonry. When it enters through cracked mortar joints, it expands and contracts with temperature changes and slowly forces bricks apart from the inside. Sealing failing joints early is almost always cheaper than replacing damaged bricks later.
Clay-heavy soil swells when wet and shrinks when dry - and Southern California's wet winters and dry summers repeat that cycle every year. Foundations on these soils need repair methods that account for ongoing movement, not just the visible crack.
Hillside properties put serious lateral pressure on retaining walls. Concrete block and reinforced masonry walls hold up better than timber or unreinforced block over time. The drainage system behind the wall matters as much as the wall itself.
Mortar that dries too fast in 95-degree heat becomes brittle and cracks sooner. A good contractor manages curing conditions by misting fresh joints and scheduling work outside peak summer heat when possible. The Brick Industry Association publishes technical guidance on mortar mix and curing best practices.
Routine chimney maintenance - patching mortar, replacing a cap - generally does not need a permit. Structural repairs and full relining typically do. The City of Chino Hills Building and Safety Division handles these permits, and a licensed contractor pulls it for you.
September through November and March through May are the best windows in Chino Hills. Mortar cures well in mild temperatures, and both windows fall outside the rainiest months. Avoid scheduling fresh masonry work in July or August when daytime heat regularly exceeds 95 degrees.

If your home is 25 years old or more and has never had masonry evaluated, schedule an inspection now. Chino Hills homes from the 1980s and 1990s are at the age where mortar, chimney liners, and retaining walls commonly need attention.
Not always - but it sometimes means a contractor is skipping the permit, using the wrong mortar mix, or cutting corners on prep. Ask every bidder to show their CSLB license number and provide a written scope before you compare prices.
For most exterior masonry repairs, yes. There will be noise from grinding and chiseling, and some dust near the work area. Keep children and pets away from active work zones. Foundation work may require you to clear certain interior areas during the job.
The California Contractors State License Board lets you verify any contractor license in about 60 seconds - always check before signing a contract. Ready to talk through your project? Call us at (909) 834-5289.
Chino Hills is a city of roughly 82,000 residents built across the rolling terrain of the Puente Hills and Chino Hills ranges in San Bernardino County. Most of its homes were constructed during the suburban expansion of the 1980s and 1990s, which means the housing stock is now 30 to 40 years old - an age when brick, mortar, and masonry foundations commonly need their first serious attention. You can read more about the city at the City of Chino Hills official website.
The terrain here is genuinely hilly, and that shapes a lot of what homeowners deal with. Sloped and tiered lots are common throughout the city, which means retaining walls, drainage, and graded pads are a regular part of outdoor maintenance. Many properties back up to open hillsides or look out toward landmarks like Chino Hills State Park to the west or Carbon Canyon Regional Park to the east. The soil throughout the area is high in clay content, which expands and contracts with the seasonal wet-dry cycle and puts ongoing stress on foundations and masonry structures. The California Geological Survey documents these expansive soil conditions throughout the region.
Chino Hills is also a high-ownership community - most residents own their homes and have lived in them for years, so upkeep matters. Whether your home sits near The Shoppes on Grand Avenue or up in the hillside neighborhoods, Premier Chino Hills Masonry knows these properties and what they need to stay solid for another 30 years.
