Stone Masonry & Veneer Services
Natural Stone Masonry
From gate columns and planter walls to grand entryways and outdoor fireplaces, natural stonework is where our craft truly shines. Our masons carefully select, cut, and shape each stone by hand so every piece fits together like a puzzle for a balanced, natural look. The result is true artisan stonework, the kind neighbors stop to admire.
Stone Veneer Installation
Natural thin stone and manufactured veneer give you the look of solid stone at a lighter weight and lower cost. We install over new construction or existing surfaces, such as brick fireplaces and concrete block walls, and handle every detail behind the stone, from surface prep to moisture protection, so it looks flawless and holds up beautifully over time.

What Our Stone Masonry Clients Say
Straight from homeowners who trusted us with their stone masonry and veneer projects.
Aaron and team were an absolute pleasure to work with! We hired them for one project, but the work was so great we added two more projects. They worked many long hours to deliver a gorgeous new stone fireplace and two amazing accent walls. They show up when they say they will, the communication was consistent, and they do fantastic work.
These guys can be trusted to do a top notch job for a fair price. They were able to construct a sandstone column at the fireplace in our den that matches the stone used on the original build of our home. Our home was built in 1952 by some amazing craftsman and Aaron & his team were able to match the quality and craftsmanship of days gone by.
Aaron and his team just finished refacing two large red brick chimneys with high quality stone. He does what he says, he’s respectful, he’s reasonable, and he and his team do absolutely amazing work. Their attention to detail and customer service is uncommonly strong.
They did such a great job installing the stone around our fireplace! They were extremely professional, quick to reply, and did an outstanding job.
Took an old red brick fireplace and with careful meticulous work turned it into a real work of art with real stone… Both my wife and I are extremely pleased and satisfied with the finished product.
Stone Masonry & Veneer FAQ
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes! Simply fill out our contact form with a brief description of your project and any photos you have. We’ll be in touch within 24-48 hours to discuss next steps and schedule a visit.
What is the difference between natural stone and stone veneer?
Natural stone is solid, full depth stone excavated from the earth. Veneer is a thinner layer made from either thin cut natural stone or manufactured stone designed to look like the real thing. Veneer is lighter and often more affordable, while full natural stone offers maximum durability and authenticity.
Can stone veneer go over my existing brick fireplace?
In most cases, yes. As long as the existing brick is structurally sound, we can prepare the surface and install veneer directly over it, giving your fireplace a completely new look without a full tear-out.
How much does stone masonry or veneer cost?
Every stone project is priced individually based on the type of stone, the size of the area, and how complex the installation is. We’ll visit your home, review your options, and give you a detailed quote at no cost.
How long does a stone veneer project take?
Smaller projects like a fireplace reface often take 2–4 days, while larger exterior or outdoor projects may take one to several weeks depending on size and weather.
Does stone veneer hold up in Pacific Northwest weather?
Yes, when it is installed correctly. Proper weather barriers, drainage, and flashing are key in our wet climate, so we install every exterior project with moisture protection in mind.
Can you match the existing stone on my home?
Yes! We pay close attention to stone type, color, size, and mortar style to match additions or repairs to your existing stonework as closely as possible.
Do you help choose the stone?
Absolutely. We’ll help you compare colors, textures, and patterns, and recommend options that fit your home’s style, your budget, and the area being covered.
Can you repair loose or damaged stone?
Yes. We reset loose stones, replace damaged pieces, and repoint worn mortar joints to restore both the look and the strength of your existing stonework.
