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.

Residential Masonry in Lexington, MA

A residential masonry contractor that knows Lexington

When we take on a residential masonry project in Lexington, the first thing we factor in is the local soil: glacial till with mature tree cover. Combined with cooler than central boston by 1-2 degrees, this dictates how we engineer the base and joints. The result is a residential masonry that performs the way it's supposed to — for decades.

We're based in Woburn and reach Lexington on a regular schedule. That means same-day callbacks, on-site estimates within 48 hours, and crews that know which materials handle Middlesex County conditions best.
