What’s the lifespan of a masonry project?
When installed correctly and maintained over time, masonry projects such as natural stone or brickwork can last for decades.
Many installations hold up beautifully for 50 years or more, making them one of the most durable investments you can make for your home.
Can you match new masonry to my existing brick or stone?
Yes. We take care in sourcing stone and brick that closely resemble your existing materials, so new work blends seamlessly with what’s already there.
This ensures a consistent, natural look while preserving the overall character of your home.
What’s the difference between mortar, cement, and concrete?
Mortar is a mixture of sand, lime and Portland cement, at different ratios depending on the materials it is being used to bond.
Cement is Portland and sand, and can be used for thin overlays.
Concrete has sand, Portland and bigger aggregate, such as ½ inch or ¾ inch stone, in order to help create a stronger bond on thicker poured projects such as floors, walkways, or steps as a concrete finished product.
