Ankeny Concrete & Masonry got its start in 2018 when a small crew of masons decided Ankeny homeowners deserved better than contractors who quoted over the phone, showed up late, and left the job site a mess. Ankeny was already growing fast then - the housing stock ranged from 1960s ranch homes near downtown to brand-new subdivisions spreading north and west, each with its own set of masonry needs.
Central Iowa is hard on brick, mortar, and concrete. The clay-heavy soil swells and shrinks with the seasons. The ground freezes deep every winter, then thaws fast in spring - cracking foundations, pushing driveways out of alignment, and working mortar joints apart year by year. We built this business around understanding those conditions. The materials and methods we use are chosen for how they perform after the third Iowa winter, not just during the first summer inspection.
Today we serve homeowners across Ankeny and 11 surrounding communities in the Des Moines metro. Our team handles everything from foundation repair and chimney work to retaining walls, outdoor kitchens, and decorative stone. Every job starts with a free on-site estimate, honest communication from first call to final walkthrough, and work backed by a written warranty.
You get an honest read on what needs fixing and what can wait. No upselling, no scare tactics - just clear information so you can make a real decision.
We use materials and methods built for central Iowa's freeze-thaw climate. The goal is work that still looks and performs the same three winters from now.
We show up when we say we will, keep the work area tidy, and clean up thoroughly when the job is done. Your home is treated with care.
We live and work in the Ankeny area. We know the housing stock here, the soil conditions, and the kind of problems central Iowa homeowners face every season.
We are a state-licensed and fully insured masonry contractor operating under Iowa contractor licensing requirements. Licensing means our work meets state-mandated standards and gives you a clear path for recourse if anything falls short.
We carry general liability insurance on every project. That protects your property if anything unexpected happens during the work - and it means you are never left holding the bill for an accident at your own home.
We have been part of the Ankeny community since 2018. Our reputation is built one job at a time, and most of our new customers come from referrals by neighbors who have used us before.
We serve Ankeny and 11 surrounding communities across the greater Des Moines area.
