Masonry isn't just a trade. It's an art.

Intricate patterns. Thoughtful details. Perfectly placed arches. Decorative bands. Subtle changes in texture and color. Brickwork that goes way beyond putting one brick on top of another. Work that was built to be functional but designed to be beautiful.

That's the amazing thing about masonry: the materials may be simple, but what a skilled mason can create with them is anything but.

We took a walk around our own neighborhood to appreciate some of the craftsmanship that's within walking distance of our office door.

Masonry isn't just about building something that lasts. It's about creating something worth looking at for generations.

Which detail catches your eye?

Good moisture management isn't about pretending water won't get in. It's about making sure the wall knows what to do when it does.

Your wall has a lot to say. With Mortar Net Solutions, the message is: “You got in, water. Now get out.”

The best investment in masonry is training a new mason.

For the seventh year, Mortar Net Solutions is helping support the next generation of masonry professionals through the Mortar Net Solutions Masonry Apprentice Scholarship.

And this year's scholarship is now open.

It’s designed for apprentices who still have a year or more of basic training ahead of them. Recipients receive a tool bag packed with industry-sponsored masonry tools and gear designed to serve them throughout their remaining training and into their careers.

Want your masonry wall to perform for decades? Start with a simple equation:

Drainage + Ventilation = Longevity

No masonry wall is completely immune to moisture. The key is designing cavity wall systems that manage water, not just try to stop it. By creating a path for drainage and promoting airflow within the cavity, you help reduce trapped moisture and support long-term wall performance.

That's why Mortar Net Solutions are designed to work as part of a complete moisture management system, helping contractors build walls that stand up to the elements.

The best time to manage water is before it becomes a callback.

Why install flashing, drainage mesh, weeps, drip edge, and a termination bar separately when you can install them all at once?

TotalFlash Panel is a factory-assembled cavity wall drainage solution that combines all the essential flashing components into one easy-to-install system, helping contractors cut installation time by at least 50% while delivering consistent, high-quality results. It's been specified on more than 1,500 projects and over 1 million feet have been installed.

Less time assembling, more time building.
