P&J Rancho Cucamonga Concrete & Masonry is a masonry contractor working in Jurupa Valley, CA. We build block and brick walls, repoint worn mortar, repair chimneys and lay pavers and walkways for homes across the city.
Most of our calls in Jurupa Valley come from homeowners who want a block wall along a property line, a retaining wall where the yard steps down, or worn brick and a tired chimney put right after years of sun. Some of the houses are older, on roomy lots with long back yards, and some sit in newer tracts with block walls already up between neighbors, much like what we see in Eastvale and Fontana. We're based in Rancho Cucamonga and come down to do the work.
The weather here is dry, with long stretches of drought and low humidity that pull moisture out of building materials fast. New mortar and grout need that water to cure hard, so on hot, dry days we wet the brick first, cover fresh work and keep it damp, and we do our pointing in the cooler part of the day.
When a foundation wall has cracked or settled, we find the cause first, then rebuild or reinforce the section instead of patching over it.
Explore serviceLoose bricks or a cracked crown, the concrete cap on top, let water into a chimney, so we rebuild what's failing from the top down.
Explore serviceTuckpointing fills worn joints with mortar colored to match the brick, then runs a thin contrasting line down the middle so old brickwork reads crisp again.
Explore serviceIf a few bricks have cracked, flaked or worked loose, we cut them out and set matching brick in their place instead of rebuilding the wall.
Explore serviceA paver driveway is only as good as the base under it, so we dig out, compact gravel in layers and set edging before laying the first paver.
Explore serviceHolding back a slope takes more than stacked block, so we plan the footing, reinforcing steel and drainage behind the wall around how much soil it holds.
Explore serviceFor older brick and stone that's worn all over, we clean, repoint and replace damaged pieces in stages, keeping as much of the original material as we can.
Explore serviceWe build masonry fireplaces and surrounds to fit the room and the firebox you choose, with firebrick inside where the heat is and finished brick or stone outside.
Explore serviceStone veneer is thin stone fixed to an existing wall, and how it holds up depends on the backing and water barrier we put behind it first.
Explore serviceWant privacy or a solid property line? We build block walls on a poured footing with steel and grout down the hollow cores, in plain or split-face block.
Explore serviceBlock foundation walls go under additions, garages and raised floors, and we lay them to the footing size and steel your approved plans call for.
Explore serviceYou pick the grill and doors, and we build the block base around their sizes, then finish it in stone, brick or stucco to match the house.
Explore serviceWe lay walkways in brick, pavers or stone on a packed base, sloped slightly so rain runs off instead of sitting by your door.
Explore serviceA brick wall starts with a footing sized to its height, then rows of brick laid level, with caps on top to keep water out of the core.
Explore serviceNatural stone walls, columns and steps are fitted by hand, stone by stone, and our lead mason settles the pattern with you before we start.
Explore serviceWhen mortar joints have gone sandy or recessed, we rake them out and repoint with mortar softer than the brick, so the joint wears instead of the brick.
Explore serviceIn Jurupa Valley, building permits come from the city's Building & Safety Department, and that department passes construction applications around several city departments for review, so on a job that needs a permit, the review usually decides when we can start. Before you hire anyone, ask to see their California contractor license and their Jurupa Valley Business Registration Certificate, because the city requires registration from anyone doing business in the city, and businesses based outside it may need one too.
Before we start, we check what the city asks for on your kind of job, and when a permit is needed, we handle the application and line up the inspections. The price comes down to how long and tall the wall is, how deep the footing goes, which block, brick or stone you pick, how much old work comes out first and how easy it is to get material to the spot, while the schedule turns on permit review, material delivery and weather. I come out to look at the job myself and give you the estimate, and I'll walk you through both. We do the same work in Pomona and Ontario, but each city runs its own permit desk, so we don't assume one city's rules carry over to the next.
Fill out the form or call (909) 360-4010 and tell us what's going on with your brick, block, stone or chimney. We reply within one business day, and then I come out to look at the job myself and give you the estimate on site, free and with no obligation.
(909) 360-4010The city requires a grading permit whenever work changes the grade of the land, so a retaining wall that cuts into a slope or brings in fill will usually need one. For the wall itself, we check what the city asks for on your design before we start, and we handle the application and inspections when a permit is needed.
Yes, the state licensing board requires a license when the job needs a building permit, uses any additional workers, or comes to $1,000 or more in labor and materials. Contractors also have to be licensed before they bid, and a larger job can't be split into smaller contracts to stay under that figure. We're licensed and insured, and I'm glad to answer questions about it when I come out.
It goes by the date the permit application is filed. A city staff report says applications filed on or after January 1, 2026, follow the 2025 California Building Standards Code, and those received on or before December 31, 2025, follow the 2022 code. Since we file the application, we build to whichever code your permit falls under.
We're based in Rancho Cucamonga and work across the cities around it, including the ones listed here. If your city isn't on the list, ask us.
Our phone hours run into the evening every day of the week, so you can call (909) 360-4010 after work or send the form whenever it suits you.
If you've got a question about your brick, block or chimney before you're ready for an estimate, send it our way and I'll answer it.
