Masonry contractors in Hespeler Village

Historic mill-town masonry that deserves lime mortar and a careful hand, not a grinder and grey portland.

Hespeler Village is the most historically sensitive masonry in the city. Much of it predates portland cement, and a wall built in lime will crack, spall and trap water if it gets repointed in a modern high-cement mix — which is exactly what has happened to a good deal of it already.

We work in lime here by default rather than as an upgrade, match colour and joint profile to what survives, and take out failed modern repairs where they are actively damaging the brick. It is slower work than a standard repoint and we quote it honestly as such.

Reviews

Cambridge homeowners, in their own words

Every review below is from a real job in a real neighbourhood — most within ten minutes of each other.

“They installed a stone fireplace for us and the quality of the work was outstanding. The price was fair and they finished when they said they would. We have had three neighbours ask who did it.”
Val J. · West Galt Stone fireplace installation
“The stone walkway was applied so evenly. You can tell the difference between someone who does this properly and someone who just lays stone. Excellent workmanship.”
Fern W. · Preston Natural stone walkway
“Very satisfied with the brick restoration. They matched our original brick better than I thought was possible and cleaned up the site every single day.”
Constance V. · Hespeler Brick restoration & repointing
“Detail oriented from start to finish. They repointed the front elevation and rebuilt the chimney, and left the job site cleaner than they found it.”
Jamie B. · East Galt Repointing & chimney rebuild
“Quality work, done right. Our front steps and porch have never looked better. Highly recommend to anyone in Cambridge.”
