Can you match my existing brick?

Most of the time, yes. We work with regional brick yards and can custom-tint mortar to match weathered joints. We do test panels before committing to full scope.

Do you do interior work?

Yes. Fireplaces, hearths, indoor accent walls, and basement foundation veneer.

What about additions and renovations?

We coordinate with GCs, architects, and homeowners on additions to ensure new masonry blends seamlessly with existing.

Arlington sits in Greater Boston (Middlesex County), and projects here near Spy Pond and the Minuteman Bikeway need to handle a specific blend of weather and soil.
