Texas Masonry Contractors

Hiring a Masonry Contractor in Texas

Buildermuse currently lists 10 masonry contractors in Texas, averaging 5.0 stars across 1,539 verified Google reviews. That is an unusually strong field — when nearly every firm clears 4.8 stars, response time and availability become the real differentiators, so call two or three rather than only the top result. Most of the crews above operate out of Frisco, Abilene, and Anna.

Texas does not require a state-level general contractor license. Licensing is handled by cities and counties — Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, and Austin each have different requirements. Texas is notable for not requiring workers compensation insurance. State licenses exist for electrical, plumbing, and HVAC. With no statewide license for this work, checking city and county requirements — plus active insurance — falls on you as the hiring party.

Labor is the biggest line item on most bids, and the Texas market sets the floor: construction workers here average $38.45 an hour — about $79,976 a year — across 869,756 workers statewide, per Bureau of Labor Statistics data. Use that figure as a sanity check when comparing quotes — a bid priced far below market labor rates usually means subcontracted or uninsured crews.
