Jim Dayton has been working in the masonry industry since 1981. A 1979 graduate of James Madison University, Jim brought both an education and a genuine passion for the trade to his work from the very beginning. His career carried him through San Francisco, Las Vegas, and jobs across Virginia, California, and Nevada — building a depth of experience across building styles, climates, and construction traditions that few contractors in West Texas can match.
Jim Dayton Masonry is locally owned and operated, proudly serving Midland, Odessa, and Big Spring. Rather than growing into a large, impersonal operation, Jim has kept the business intentionally lean — a small crew, with Jim personally overseeing every job from estimate to final walkthrough. Hire Jim Dayton Masonry, and you’re working directly with the person whose name is on the truck.
