Mason contractors build business on craftsmanship.
The heart of a masonry construction firm is a group of able, experienced craftsmen-like the men of Knuth Masonry, Inc., Milwaukee. Allan Knuth, president, and his general superintendent, Clarence Burkart were apprentice bricklayers together. Men like Robert Neumer, Roger Spahn and Rudy Rudzinski have worked with him nearly as long.
To this intimate knowledge of masonry Knuth adds managerial skills. Most mason contractors were bricklayers first, mastering their craft before acquiring their business skills.
They work with the best materials ever devised for building: Brick, block, stone, tile, plaster, terrazzo. Their buildings are beautiful, permanent, low on maintenance, energy-efficient, and economical.
If you want all these advantages in your next project, all you have to do is make sure it's a masonry building.
