Sagging arches, cracked entry surrounds, and rusted lintels repaired and rebuilt — plus custom new archways and entryways that make an entrance.
An arch carries weight through geometry — which means when the support behind it fails, the whole thing starts to sag, crack, and drop bricks. Rusted steel lintels, settling foundations, and failed mortar are the usual suspects, and patching over the symptoms never holds.
Pfleger Masonry, Inc. has repaired and rebuilt brick and stone archways in Arlington since 1981. We shore the opening properly, replace rusted lintels, rebuild the arch with matched brick, and repoint so the finished work looks like it was never touched.
We also design and build new archways and entryway surrounds — front-door surrounds, garden arches, porch openings, and interior pass-throughs — crafted to complement your home's existing brick and stone.
From structural arch repair to brand-new custom entryways, we handle the masonry others walk away from.

The most common cause is a rusted steel lintel — as it corrodes it expands and loses strength, cracking the brick above. Foundation settlement is the other frequent cause. Either way, the fix is structural, not cosmetic, and it's work we do every week.
Yes. We salvage original brick where possible and source matching units where we can't, then repoint with color-matched mortar so the rebuilt arch blends seamlessly.
Absolutely — front entry surrounds, garden arches, porch openings, and interior masonry arches. We'll help you design something proportioned to your home and build it to last.
It can be. A dropping arch means the masonry above is no longer properly supported, and bricks can eventually fall. If you see sagging or widening cracks above an opening, have it assessed promptly — the earlier we catch it, the simpler the repair.
