"Worthley Masonry did an amazing job designing our dream front steps in stone veneer bluestone treads. Travis really took the time to listen and hear what we were looking for and was considerate of our budget. You can tell he loves what he does, and his assistant takes a lot of care and pride in the work. Travis also really stands by the finished project, as well, regarding the longevity of the stonework/future concerns. We are so happy we went with Worthley. Truly, if you are looking for a professional, reliable, reasonable, capable, and easy to communicate with masonry company, this is it!"

"I recently hired Arch Masonry to repoint my chimney, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Derek was very professional, prompt, and thorough from start to finish. He communicated and explained every step of the process clearly. It's rare to find such high attention to detail, great craftsmanship, and commitment to customer satisfaction all in one."

"NE Foundation Crack Repair did a full repoint of our late-1800s basement (which looked like it hadn't been done ever!). Staff were super responsive during estimate and project processes. Cost was reasonable. What I appreciated most was how communicative and respectful the guys who completed the job were. Overall, we are so happy to have used this company."

"JRM was very easy to work with - we did all the project discussion and planning by phone/text using photos and Googlemap images, which saved time. They were able to do the project within 10 days of our initial discussion; the date and price were as quoted and the walkway looks great."

"I had a wonderful experience with Tom Ricci, owner of American Building Co, whom I found through Angie’s List. He responded to my request for a mason right away, arrived exactly when we had agreed, and clearly explained the work that needed to be done. He sent me a detailed quote that same evening and completed the job effortlessly. His craftsmanship was truly impressive, and the finished result—repairs to my front steps—was impeccable. Tom is also incredibly versatile in his knowledge; he’s a true jack of all trades. I highly recommend him!"

"Very precise work was required to take trees down where they were located. They did an amazing job and then planted arborvitae in their place. Cleared away milkweed and other weeds and made 2 new beds with new grass and tree. Team was very professional and courteous-and double checked with me that tasks were performed to my satisfaction."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

This is largely dependent on the size and hardness of the rock, but a range of tools might work, including hammers, chisels, rock hammers, sledge hammers, and more. You'll need a jackhammer for the very biggest rock-breaking jobs.

Yes, masonry is more expensive than concrete because the labor is much more involved. With masonry, your expert will build your project from the ground up, one piece at a time, ensuring they use the proper amount of mortar or grout during construction and keeping the project level or plumb. Pouring concrete can also be labor-intensive, but it’s a bit less involved. It requires building a mold, pouring the concrete, and letting it cure. The less intensive labor makes concrete a more affordable option in most cases.

Brick is the closest choice when seeking to capture the timeless look of stone with a more practical and budget-friendly option. When comparing stone versus brick siding, the price range of $200,000 to $400,000 for average brick home construction is dramatically lower compared to the cost of building a stone home. If you'd like to keep the stone aesthetic without the cost, stone veneer and manufactured stone are both less expensive than real stone.

The material you use depends on how hard-wearing your steps need to be and what you want them to look like. The most common stone for exterior steps is bluestone. It’s hard-wearing and durable, and bluestone steps cost between $15 and $30 per linear foot. Limestone is also a popular option and is mid-range, costing $25 to $50 per linear foot. You should always consider the specific requirements of your project before ordering any materials.

Certain towns and homeowner associations (HOAs) ban brick mailboxes because of the risk of obstruction. They are sometimes only permitted in cases where four or more homes share a mailbox. Homeowners may need to obtain special permits in some locations. One of the top masonry contractor hiring tips is to ask a local pro if they can show you examples of recent work that meets local code regulations.
