About Us

Serving the tri-county community since 2020, Solid Ground Masonry LLC, has the experience and knowledge to guarantee that clients are fully satisfied with their projects, from restoration work to new construction. Owner Steven Humes, of New Baltimore, has been in the masonry business around 10 years and branched out on his own nearly four to five years ago. He learned the trade working for a local brickwork company, which instilled in him the experience, technical knowhow and professionalism customers can expect from Solid Ground masonry, which is licensed and insured. “We’re a younger company,” Humes said. “All the guys who work for me, we’re the next generation of bricklayers. … Our work is topnotch, because we learned from the best.” Clients can rely on Solid Ground masonry for quality residential and commercial projects, from brick, block, stone and brick pavers to tuckpointing, waterproofing, interior work and beyond. “We use only the best materials and equipment,” Humes said, “and we follow the highest standards of safety and craftsmanship. We are proud of our reputation as a trustworthy and hardworking brick company, and we guarantee your satisfaction with our work.” Details matter to the Solid Ground team, down to the color of the mortar — and even the color of the stone in the mortar. “We match directly to what’s there originally,” Humes said. “It’s a huge deal. When there’s not a match, you can see where the repairs were done. When we come in for a job, when we leave you won’t be able to tell where the repairs were done. It looks brand new. That’s important in Grosse Pointe with its historical houses.” Humes is so invested in the Grosse Pointe community that Solid Ground will join the Grosse Pointe Chamber of Commerce next month. Solid Ground currently offers 10 percent off for veterans, seniors and first responders. Free estimates and chimney inspections also are offered. For more information, call (810) 580-8703
