Masonry in Pace
What masonry work looks like in Pace.
Masonry in Pace is almost entirely modern brick veneer, so the work is settlement repair rather than historic restoration: cracked mortar joints, a sill that has dropped, brick pulling away at a corner where the ground underneath has moved.
Because the brick is modern and hard, matching is usually straightforward — the harder part is working out what moved and making sure it has stopped moving before the wall goes back together.

Local conditions
Why this matters in Pace.
Much of Pace was farmland or timber before it was subdivided, and a lot of the newer sections sit on imported and reworked fill. Fill that was placed quickly and not compacted in lifts keeps settling for years, which is why we see so much cracked and dropped concrete on houses that are barely fifteen years old.
The lots also tend to be graded flat, with drainage handled by shallow swales between properties. When those get filled in by planting beds or fencing, the water has nowhere to go and it ends up against somebody's slab.
Predominantly slab-on-grade brick veneer and hardboard, built from the late 1990s onward, in planned subdivisions. Very little genuinely old masonry.
That means less historic brick matching and considerably more of the settlement, drainage and concrete-replacement work that newer construction generates once it is fifteen or twenty years old.
