Before you hire: masons and masonry
Subcategory 4.1 covers load-bearing masonry: brick or stone walls and chimneys. Ceramic tile or non-structural cladding falls under other subcategories.
Attach photos of the wall (from afar and up close), give the height, the floor and the access (lane, scaffolding), and ask whether the company also checks the flashing and the ties of the veneer. For a front wall, the borough or city may require a permit or a material like the existing one.
