Terms and Conditions
Effective January 1, 2026
DM La Mesa Concrete & Masonry, lamesaconcreteandmasonry.com, hello@lamesaconcreteandmasonry.com
Accepting these terms
These terms apply when you use this website or ask DM La Mesa Concrete & Masonry for an estimate or for work. By using the site, calling us or sending our form, you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.
Your signed contract for a specific job comes first. If it says something different from these terms, the contract controls for that job. We last updated these terms in November 2026.
What we do
We're a masonry contractor in La Mesa, CA, and we also take concrete work. That includes brick, block and stone work, retaining walls, pavers, walkways, chimneys and fireplaces, foundation repair and related jobs at homes in La Mesa and the cities around it. You can see our full list of services on our home page and read about our crew on our About page.
What we show on this site describes our work in general terms. It isn't a promise that a particular service, material or schedule fits your property. We confirm that only after we've seen the job in person.
Estimates and pricing
Estimates are free and come with no obligation. We base each one on what we can see on site and what you tell us about the job.
An estimate isn't a final price. Some conditions only show up once the work is open, such as a weak base, hidden water damage, buried roots or old repairs that have to come out. When that happens, we stop, show you what we found and explain what it changes. No extra work goes ahead until you approve it in writing.
Prices for materials can change, so an estimate is good for the period written on it. After that, we may need to update it before we schedule the work.
Scheduling, changes and cancellation
We schedule a job once you've signed the contract and made any deposit it calls for. Start and finish dates are our best plan, but weather, material delivery, permit or inspection timing, and conditions found on site can move them. We'll tell you as soon as we know a date is shifting.
If you want to change the scope after the contract is signed, we'll put the change and its cost in writing before we do it. If you need to cancel or reschedule, let us know as early as you can by calling (619) 648-8025. You keep any cancellation rights California law gives you, and your contract explains them along with any costs for materials we've already ordered or work we've already done.
Payment terms
Your contract sets out any deposit, the payment schedule and the ways you can pay. We tie payments to work that's actually done, and we follow California rules for home improvement contracts.
Final payment is due when the work in the contract is complete. If a payment is late, we may pause work until it's settled, and we keep any rights the law gives us to collect what's owed.
Warranties and what they don't cover
We stand behind our work and back it with our satisfaction guarantee. Any written warranty on a job, including how long it lasts and what it covers, is the one in your contract. Materials are also covered by their makers' own warranties, which we'll pass along to you.
Our warranty doesn't cover damage from things outside our control, such as earthquakes, flooding, soil movement, tree roots, vehicles heavier than the work was built for, misuse, or changes and repairs made by someone else. Masonry and concrete also have natural traits that aren't defects, like small hairline cracks, color differences between batches of brick, stone or concrete, and some efflorescence, which is a white powder that can come out of new masonry as it dries.
Apart from what's written in your contract and what the law requires, the website and its content are provided as they are, without other warranties.
Limits on our liability
We're licensed and insured, and we're responsible for the work we agree to do. To the extent the law allows, we aren't liable for indirect or consequential losses, such as lost use of your property, or for problems caused by conditions we couldn't reasonably see and that you didn't tell us about.
Our total liability for a job won't be more than what you paid us for that job, unless the law says otherwise. Nothing here limits any right you have under California law that can't be waived.
Resolving a disagreement
If something isn't right, call us first at (619) 648-8025 or reach us through our contact page. Most problems get settled by talking them through on site, and we'd rather fix it than argue about it.
If we can't work it out between us, we both agree to try mediation before going to court. If that doesn't settle it, either of us can take it to small claims court or to the courts in San Diego County.
Which law applies
These terms and any work we do are governed by the laws of the State of California.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time, and we'll post the new version on this page. A change won't affect a contract you've already signed, because that job stays under the terms in place when you signed it.
Questions about any of this? Get in touch through our contact page or call (619) 648-8025, and we'll walk you through it.
