Masonry contractor in Jersey City, NJ.
Dense, mixed-era, and old. Downtown and Hamilton Park hold the brownstones that predate 1900. The Heights leans Victorian woodframe. The waterfront's newer high-rises don't usually call us. Our Jersey City work lives in the old stock: stoop rebuilds, façade repointing, the occasional garden patio on a narrow lot.

Questions homeowners ask
FAQs about Jersey City jobs.
Things we've been asked most often by homeowners we've worked with in Jersey City. Don't see your question? Give us a call.
Why does pre-1900 brick fail when you use modern mortar?
Pre-1900 brick is fired softer than modern brick. The lime mortar around it was designed to be even softer, so joints crack before the brick face does. Repoint with Portland-based Type S and the hard mortar transfers load to the soft brick, which spalls. Type N lime-rich mortar is the only correct call here.
What's involved in a Downtown brownstone stoop rebuild?
Tear-out, fresh poured footing, treads cut from matched-tone stone, riser veneer reset on a new substrate, and iron rail anchors reset. Usually 8 to 12 days from start to finish, weather permitting.
Can you do work in the Heights and the waterfront too?
Yes, though the Heights has more of the older masonry work and the waterfront new-construction tends to be handled by the developer's contractors. We've taken on residential renovations in both, and substrate prep is what differs.
