Stone Veneer & Facades in Arlington Center, Arlington, MA

Looking for stone veneer & facades in Arlington Center in Arlington, MA? Ultimate Boston Masonry is a licensed, insured, family-owned masonry contractor serving Arlington and the rest of Middlesex County from our Boston base. Arlington's hills mean retaining walls and stepped walkways, where drainage design matters more than the stone itself.

Housing in Arlington Center in Arlington includes tight lots with shared driveways and close neighbors, and spring snowmelt that saturates masonry and soil is what wears this masonry down. That is why our stone veneer & facades work starts with understanding what your building is made of — brick type, stone, mortar hardness, and drainage — before we price anything. Veneer transforms a plain foundation, column, or chimney. We install over properly flashed and drained wall assemblies so the finish stays tight and the wall behind it stays dry.

Response time in Arlington: Estimates within 24 hours · Typical range $38 – $90 per square foot
