Do I need a concrete/masonry license in Chicago?
You do. The City of Chicago requires that anyone working with “brick, stone, concrete, terra-cotta, tile and fireproofing, or any combination of these materials, as used in and about the construction of buildings or structures above or below the surface of the ground, to secure a masonry license prior to beginning work or pulling permits.
Do I really need a preparation course for the masonry exams?
“We teach to the test”
These are hard tests, and many have failed multiple times prior to taking our course. Not to mention the $1,000 you can spend on reference books, along with the weeks or months you’ll spend studying. With our 2-day concrete/masonry course, you’ll receive a distilled study guide, roughly 50 pages in length, along with PowerPoint notes. You’ll also take daily quizzes and in-class practice exams that provide instant feedback as to what you should study. In other words, we “teach to the test.”
