AGM Augusta Masonry handles brick repair, driveway pavers, and foundation work for Evans homeowners in Columbia County. Serving Evans, GA with licensed crews, free written estimates, and response within 1 business day.
Most Evans homes built in the 1990s and early 2000s have brick veneer fronts, and that veneer needs attention over time - mortar cracks, individual bricks spall, and wind-driven rain from summer thunderstorms finds every gap. Our brick repair service covers everything from repointing a chimney to replacing cracked bricks matched to the original color.
Evans residents drive their driveways every day, and the red clay soil underneath is constantly moving. Paver driveways handle that soil movement better than poured concrete slabs because individual units can shift slightly without cracking the whole surface - a practical choice for Columbia County's soil conditions.
Most Evans homes sit on slab foundations, which take the full force of clay soil expansion and contraction. Slabs in this area commonly develop cracks from repeated wet-dry cycles and mild freeze-thaw cycles in winter. Catching slab cracks early costs far less than dealing with them after settlement has spread to interior walls and floors.
Evans homes from the 1990s are now 25 to 35 years old, which puts them squarely in the window when original mortar begins to fail. Augusta's heat and humidity accelerate that breakdown, and chimney mortar is usually the first place homeowners notice gaps - often after a wet summer or the first freeze-thaw cycle of winter.
Many Evans lots have grade changes, and clay soil on a slope presents real drainage and erosion risks. A properly built retaining wall in block, stone, or brick stops soil migration, controls stormwater runoff from summer thunderstorms, and protects the flat usable space in your yard.
Evans is an unincorporated community in Columbia County that grew quickly during the suburban boom of the 1980s through the early 2000s. Most homes here are now 25 to 40 years old, which puts roofs, HVAC systems, and exterior masonry at or near the end of their typical lifespan. Brick veneer fronts are standard in Evans subdivisions - a half-brick facing on a wood-frame wall that looks solid but has specific maintenance needs that many homeowners overlook until water is already getting in.
The red clay soil under Evans is the same expansive material that runs throughout the Augusta metro, and it causes the same problems here: cracked slab foundations, uneven driveways, and mortar joints that open up with every wet-dry cycle. Columbia County also ranks among the highest-income counties in Georgia, and Evans homeowners typically want quality work - not the cheapest patch - because their homes represent a real long-term investment. Summer afternoon thunderstorms are common and intense, and wind-driven rain finds every gap in aging brick veneer, making timely repairs more than just cosmetic.
We pull permits through the Columbia County Building and Zoning Department for structural masonry work in Evans and the surrounding Columbia County communities. Evans is made up almost entirely of planned residential subdivisions - neighborhoods like Riverwood Plantation, Summerfield, and River Island - and we work throughout those developments regularly. The homes here have a different character than the historic brick districts closer to downtown Augusta: newer construction, slab foundations, and brick veneer rather than full-brick walls.
Washington Road is the main commercial corridor that every Evans resident drives, running from Evans Towne Center west toward the Augusta city limit. Many of the subdivisions along Washington Road and Evans to Locks Road were built in phases from the late 1980s through the mid-2000s, which means a lot of homes in the same subdivision are aging at the same rate and dealing with similar masonry issues around the same time. Fort Eisenhower sits just east of Evans and keeps a steady flow of families in and out of Columbia County housing, which means we also handle turnaround work between military tenants.
We serve homeowners in Evans and in Augusta across the river, where the housing stock is older but the soil conditions driving masonry problems are identical. If you are in Grovetown or another part of western Columbia County, we cover that area as well.
You reach out by phone or through the contact form and we respond within 1 business day. We ask what you have noticed - crumbling mortar, a cracked slab, spalling brick - so we can send the right person and give you an honest preview before anyone visits your home.
We visit your property, inspect the problem areas, and take measurements or photos. You receive a written estimate covering exactly what work is proposed and what it costs. We also confirm upfront whether a permit is required for your job and explain who handles the paperwork - we do. Most assessments take 45 minutes to an hour.
The crew arrives on schedule, works through the scope laid out in your estimate, and cleans up at the end of each day. For permitted jobs in Columbia County, we coordinate the inspection so no work is covered before the inspector signs off. You can stay in your home throughout most masonry repairs.
When the work is finished, we walk through what was done and answer any questions. Permitted jobs leave you with a county inspection record that becomes part of your home's history - a document that matters when you sell. If anything looks off after completion, call us directly.

(762) 320-1398Evans is an unincorporated community in Columbia County, Georgia, located just west of Augusta along the Washington Road corridor. It has grown into one of the most populated communities in the Augusta metro over the past four decades, drawing families and professionals who want newer construction, good schools, and access to the city without living inside the Augusta-Richmond County limits. Evans Towne Center serves as the community's main gathering hub, with a park, amphitheater, and surrounding retail that most Evans residents use weekly. The residential landscape is almost entirely planned subdivisions - streets named after the neighborhood, yards with mature trees, and two-car garages fronting wide residential roads.
Most Evans homes are single-family detached houses built between the late 1980s and the mid-2000s. Brick veneer fronts with vinyl siding on the sides are the most common exterior combination, and nearly all homes sit on slab foundations. Columbia County consistently ranks among the highest-income counties in Georgia, and median home values in Evans-area zip codes have been rising steadily - making maintenance and repair quality more important here than in markets where property values are more static. Fort Eisenhower, the large U.S. Army installation just east of Evans, is the region's biggest employer and means the housing market here includes a steady mix of long-term owner-occupants and military families on shorter assignments. The area sits geographically between Evans and Grovetown, another Columbia County community we serve to the southwest.
