Stone Veneer & Facades in Admirals Hill, Chelsea, MA

Looking for stone veneer & facades in Admirals Hill in Chelsea, MA? Ultimate Boston Masonry is a licensed, insured, family-owned masonry contractor serving Chelsea and the rest of Suffolk County from our Boston base. Chelsea's older brick stock and harbor-side weather make repointing and chimney work the priority for most owners here.

Housing in Admirals Hill in Chelsea includes a mix of Victorian, colonial, and mid-century homes, and road salt and plow damage every winter 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 Chelsea: Estimates within 24 hours · Typical range $38 – $90 per square foot

Is thin veneer as durable as full stone?
