Glass block and structural clay tile

Service

Specialized Masonry: Luminous Glass Block & Structural Clay Tile

Winco Masonry provides expert installation for masonry materials that require a specialized touch. Glass block masonry offers a unique combination of natural light, thermal insulation, and high-security privacy, while structural clay tile remains one of the most durable, fire-resistant solutions for interior and exterior walls. Both materials demand a master mason’s precision to ensure that reinforcement is hidden, joints are uniform, and the structural integrity of the partition is uncompromised.

Advanced Support & Site Safety

Glass block and clay tile walls can be incredibly heavy and rigid. We prioritize safety by ensuring that all temporary bracing and overhead protection are in place during the curing process. Our team is trained in the specific handling requirements for these materials to prevent chipping or cracking during installation, ensuring a clean and safe job site from start to finish.

Internal Reinforcement & Expansion

Unlike standard brick, glass block and clay tile have unique expansion rates. We specialize in the "hidden" engineering of these walls utilizing stainless steel panel anchors, expansion strips, and horizontal joint reinforcement. This technical approach prevents the panels from cracking under thermal stress or building movement, ensuring a lifetime of performance.

Sanitary & Aesthetic Finishing

Structural clay tile is often chosen for its chemical resistance and ease of cleaning, while glass block is chosen for its clarity. We focus on "clean" masonry techniques, using specialized mortars and sealants that resist mold and moisture. We ensure that every joint is struck perfectly, providing a finish that is as functional in a laboratory as it is beautiful in a modern lobby.

What Makes Us Stand Out?

Our top priority is customer satisfaction and we work closely with clients to understand their unique needs and goals.

Architectural Precision

We specialize in executing high-end architectural designs that require strict adherence to specifications. From intricate stone patterns to perfectly aligned commercial veneers, our team ensures every element of the masonry is visually stunning and structurally sound.

ABAA Certified

The ABAA (Air Barrier Association of America) certification distinguishes Winco Masonry as an elite contractor capable of managing the most critical aspects of the building envelope. Far beyond simple aesthetic masonry, this credential signifies a mastery of building science, specifically in the seamless integration of air and moisture barriers that protect a structure's long-term health.

They have the ability to produce and can really make things happen. When they commit to a schedule, you can pretty much take it to the bank that they're going to come through.
