For Turnkey CMU Block Services in Bluffton, Hilton Head, and Surrounding Areas in the Low Country, David Masonry & Concrete is Your #1 Choice
From commercial foundation walls to outside residential kitchens and more, CMU Blocks are a great choice for your next project. Concrete masonry units (CMUs) are precast concrete blocks that are made from a mixture of cement and other aggregate materials like sand, gravel, and crushed stone. Homeowners and builders alike have relied on CMU Blocks for decades because they are durable, long-lasting, and very cost-effective.
- CMUs are commonly used in foundation walls, basement walls, retaining walls, and interior partition walls, and particularly for their fire-resistant and thermal insulation properties.
- Commercial builders often hire us for load-bearing walls since CMUs can support a significant amount of weight, for a long time.
- CMUs are often used in a variety of home improvement projects, such as outside kitchens, garden beds, outdoor fireplaces and more.
We have extensive experience with CMU Block, for both structural construction and residential improvement purposes. We utilize CMUs made with high-quality concrete and aggregates, and that are tested for durability, performance, efficiency, and safety.
Comparing CMUs to Brick
When compared to other construction materials, CMUs tend to be less expensive, particularly for large projects, but may not be as long-lasting in harsh weather conditions as brick.
CMUs may lack the aesthetic appeal of bricks, yet they can be made to many contemporary styling options.
