What we check first on your property
Most calls start with something a homeowner has noticed, like mortar that powders when you rub it, a crack running through a block wall or a retaining wall starting to lean. Before I say what I'd do, I look for why it happened, because patching a crack without fixing the water or the footing behind it just moves the problem down the wall.
Delhi gets its drinking water and sewer from the Delhi County Water District and its power from the Turlock Irrigation District. Before we dig a footing for a new wall, we get any buried lines marked so the new work sits clear of them.
Mortar joints
We press on the joints and look for gaps, because soft or missing mortar lets water into the wall and is where most brick damage starts.
Cracks and lean
A hairline crack and one that keeps widening mean different things, so I check its shape and whether the wall is leaning or bowing.
Where water goes
Where a yard slopes toward a wall or the house, water pushes on the masonry, so we find where it drains before we repair or build.
Coming out to Delhi from Turlock
We're based in Turlock and work across the cities around it in Stanislaus and Merced counties, Delhi included, along with Livingston, Hilmar and Ceres. I come out to look at the job myself, and our crew lead and masons do the work.
Price turns on the size of the job, how far the damage goes and how easy it is to reach, and the schedule on whether it needs a county permit. I walk it and write up what I'd do. It helps to know when you first noticed the problem and what's been repaired before.

Who issues building permits for masonry work in Delhi, CA?
Merced County's Building and Safety Division issues building permits for Delhi parcels in the unincorporated county, and a parcel inside a city goes through that city instead. When your job needs a permit, we handle the application and paperwork with the office your property falls under.
What reviews does a building permit in Delhi, CA go through?
Every county building permit is reviewed by Planning and Community Development, and one for a new structure or an addition also goes to the Fire Department. Work that touches a septic system or a well adds an Environmental Health review, so those reviews can decide when we start.
Does a contractor working in Delhi need a Merced County business license?
Yes, the county says every business operating in its unincorporated area needs a valid Merced County business license. The county's permit portal has a license status check, so you can look up any contractor before you hire.
Do you repoint crumbling mortar on brick houses in Delhi?
Yes, repointing worn mortar on older brick is one of the jobs we're best known for. We grind out the failed joints and pack in fresh mortar that suits the brick, because mortar harder than the brick can crack the faces off it later.
