Masonry Testing

At H.H. Holmes, we have highly trained field and lab technicians to perform masonry testing and inspections for construction projects. Since 1936, we have been an industry leader in performing quality assurance inspections and masonry testing in the field and our state-of-the-art laboratory.

H. H. Holmes Testing provides visual inspections of reinforcing steel and observes grout and mortar placement and general masonry work. Laboratory compressive strength testing of mortar and grout specimens prepared at the site will ensure that your masonry work meets both your project strength specifications and applicable local building codes.
