Our Masonry Specialties
Outdoor Kitchens
A full outdoor kitchen turns your yard into the best seat in the house. We design and build custom kitchens with counters, storage, appliances, and the gas, electrical, and plumbing lines that run them.
Custom BBQ Islands
A built in BBQ island is the centerpiece of outdoor entertaining. We design yours around your grill, your space, and how you like to cook and host.
Fire Pits and Fireplaces
Nothing brings people together like a fire. We build custom fire pits and full outdoor fireplaces, wood burning or gas, sized and finished to match your space.
Custom Sitting Areas
Built in benches and seat walls give your yard comfortable, permanent seating that frames the space and seats the whole group.
Block Walls
Block walls define your yard, add privacy, and stand up to the years. We build them to code and finish them to match your home.
Retaining Walls
Sloped or uneven yards often need a retaining wall to hold back soil and create usable space. Many retaining walls require engineered plans first, and we build them from block or poured concrete depending on what the engineering calls for.
