Overview

Brick, block, stone and pavers give a property lasting structure and character. G & D Construction builds masonry and hardscape features for homes and businesses in Lanham and across Prince George's County, from brick steps and block walls to paver patios and stone retaining walls.

Strong masonry starts below the surface, with proper layout, a compacted base and drainage that keeps water moving away from the work. We build every course level and plumb, use materials chosen to suit your property, and finish each project so it looks clean and holds up through every season.

Services we provide

Brick & Block Work

Brick and block bring lasting strength and classic character to any property. We build walls, columns, mailboxes, planters and foundations with tight, even mortar joints and careful attention to every course we lay.

Hardscapes & Pavers

Pavers create patios, walkways and driveways that look great and are easy to repair, since individual pieces can be lifted and reset. We install them over a compacted base that keeps them level.

Retaining Walls

Segmental block and natural stone retaining walls hold back soil while adding texture and definition to your yard. We build them with a proper base and drainage so they stay straight through every season.

Masonry Repair & Repointing

Crumbling mortar, loose bricks and cracked block let water in and weaken the structure over time. We repoint joints, replace damaged units and restore steps, walls and stoops to match the original work.

Our process

How the job goes

  1. Review the feature and site

    The work starts by identifying the masonry or hardscaping feature, its location, and the preparation needed for that site. Existing surfaces and conditions are considered before the work is defined.

  2. Prepare the work area

    The area is cleared and prepared for the selected work. Depending on the scope, this can include excavation, grading, removal of affected material, or preparation for a wall, paver surface, fence, gate, or railing.

  3. Install the masonry or hardscape

    Brick, block, pavers, retaining wall materials, or related exterior elements are placed according to the planned layout. The installation is completed in the sequence required by the selected feature.

  4. Complete the surrounding work

    The final stage addresses the connections and surrounding areas so the finished feature works with the rest of the property. Cleanup and any included finishing work are completed as part of the project.

The work was done in a timely manner. My only concern was the placement of some of the equipment on my lawn killed some of the grass.
