DES MOINES’ BEST PROFESSIONAL MASONRY CONTRACTOR
ABOUT US
At Brickwork Brigade, we’re not some out-of-town contractor—we’re a local Des Moines crew with years of hands-on experience and a reputation for getting it done right.
From tuckpointing classic homes in Beaverdale to sealing brick facades in Drake or rebuilding storm-damaged chimneys on the south side, we bring craftsmanship, honesty, and zero shortcuts to every project.
We show up when we say we will, stand behind our work, and treat your home like it’s our own. Whether it’s a simple repair or a full restoration, we handle it with care, precision, and the kind of no-BS work ethic Midwestern homeowners actually respect.
Brick by brick, we’re helping keep Des Moines solid—one project at a time.
WELCOME TO THE BRIGADE
We believe that quality masonry work isn’t just about bricks and mortar—it’s about trust, consistency, and doing the job right the first time.
We’re a locally-focused team based in Des Moines, built from experienced craftsmen who know how to handle everything from small crack repairs to full-scale chimney rebuilds. Whether you’re dealing with aging brickwork, shifting walls, or water-damaged mortar, we bring real solutions backed by years of hands-on experience.
Our Approach
Our approach is simple: no gimmicks, no pressure—just honest assessments and quality workmanship. We don’t believe in rushing through jobs or cutting corners. Instead, we take the time to understand what your home really needs, offer a clear breakdown of the process and pricing, and make sure you’re comfortable every step of the way.
Why do we call ourselves the Brigade?
Because we work like a true crew; tight-knit, experienced, and fully dialed in. Every project, no matter the size, gets our full attention from start to finish. From the first inspection to the final cleanup, our goal is simple: work that holds up, and service you can count on.
We know home repairs aren’t exactly fun. But working with us? That should be the easy part. We’re responsive, show up when we say we will, and respect your time like it’s our own.
Whether you’re seeing cracks in your basement wall, want to bring a weathered brick façade back to life, or just need to know your chimney isn’t falling apart: we’ve got your back.
Brick by brick, we help Des Moines homeowners protect what matters most: their home.
