One company, the whole entry

New steps out front, and the door, railing and trim painted to match.

Most homeowners hire a mason, then go looking for a painter. We do both, so the entry you walk through every day comes out finished as one job: solid masonry and a fresh coat on everything around it.

How it works

How a Job Goes

No surprises between the estimate and the last swept-up brick.

01

We look at it in person

We come out, check what is failing and why (water, frost, a bad base or old mortar) before talking price.

02

You get a clear estimate

Scope, materials and price laid out, plus what is optional, so you can compare it with anyone else.

03

We build it to last

Old material out, a proper base or flashing in, then brick, stone or pavers set and pointed with the right mortar.

04

We clean up

Debris hauled off, the work area left clean, and a walk-through with you before we call it done.

How we build

Built course by course.

8 years of masonry experience, based in Everett, MA. Steps, chimneys and walls go up the same way: one level course on top of the last. Every job starts with a free estimate.

Why masonry fails here

Water, frost and salt. Fix the cause, not just the crack.

01

Freeze and thaw

Water soaks into old brick and mortar, freezes, expands and pops the faces off. Steps and chimneys get it worst.

02

Road and ice salt

Salt on steps and walkways pulls moisture in and eats soft brick and mortar joints from the surface down.

03

A base that moved

Steps that tip and walkways that heave usually sit on a base that was never compacted or drained.

Questions homeowners ask us

Straight answers. If yours is not here, call or text and ask us directly.

If only a few bricks or joints are loose and the steps sit level, repair and repointing usually does it. If the steps tip, crack through or water has gotten into the core, a rebuild on a new base is the fix that lasts. We tell you which one after seeing them.
Yes. A common upgrade is keeping brick or stone risers and setting solid granite treads on top, which holds up much better to salt and shoveling. Full granite and bluestone steps are also an option.
Often it is the flashing where the chimney meets the roof, a cracked crown on top, or open mortar joints. We check all three and fix the actual source instead of just sealing over it.
We are based in Everett and work across Greater Boston, including Everett, Winchester, Lexington, Belmont, Arlington, Newton, Brookline, Wellesley, Melrose.
Yes. Besides masonry we paint interiors and exteriors, which is handy when new steps or a rebuilt chimney leave the door, railing or trim needing a fresh coat.
