Doing every block project right, start to finish

At Marck Pecoraro Masonry, homeowners and property managers throughout South Florida count on block work that actually lasts. We are not here to take shortcuts or chase the fastest job turnaround. Our focus is on creating structures built to endure through proper footing design, accurate mortar application, and consistent attention to drainage and reinforcement. Every block wall, retaining system, or foundation we build is treated with care that shows in daily performance and long-term stability.

We Build Block Walls That Stand Strong

Structural integrity from footing to cap

We handle every phase of block construction with precision and care. Footings are poured to proper depth, courses are laid level and plumb, and mortar joints are tooled for weather resistance. Rebar and grout consolidation ensure long-term structural stability. The result is a wall that resists cracking, controls moisture, and delivers reliable performance for decades.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between CMU block and cinder block?

CMU (concrete masonry unit) is made with concrete and aggregate, making it stronger and more durable. Cinder block uses ash and is lighter but less structural.

A properly built concrete block wall can last 50 to 100 years with minimal maintenance. Quality mortar joints and good drainage are the biggest factors.

Most residential block walls require a building permit, especially retaining walls over three feet or foundation work. We handle permit paperwork as part of the project.

That white powder is efflorescence, caused by water moving through the block and leaving mineral salts behind. It’s cosmetic but signals a moisture issue we can address.

Yes. We source block to match your existing wall’s color, size, and finish so repairs blend in. Close matching is possible with most standard block types.
