Brick Walls, Pillars & Columns in Maplewood, Malden, MA
Looking for brick walls, pillars & columns in Maplewood in Malden, MA? Ultimate Boston Masonry is a licensed, insured, family-owned masonry contractor serving Malden and the rest of Middlesex County from our Boston base. Malden multi-families need chimney and parapet work more than anything else, often with staging over tight driveways.
Housing in Maplewood in Malden includes tight lots with shared driveways and close neighbors, and New England's 60–100 freeze-thaw cycles a winter is what wears this masonry down. That is why our brick walls, pillars & columns work starts with understanding what your building is made of — brick type, stone, mortar hardness, and drainage — before we price anything. A brick pier at the end of a driveway or a garden wall along the sidewalk is often the first masonry people see. We build and rebuild freestanding walls, pillars, and columns on proper frost-depth footings with caps that shed water.
Response time in Malden: Estimates within 24 hours · Typical range $1,200 – $15,000

Why is my brick pillar leaning?
Usually the footing is too shallow and frost has heaved it, or a vehicle has hit it. Leaning pillars normally need rebuilding on a proper footing.

Most Massachusetts communities require footings to extend below frost depth, typically 48 inches. We confirm local requirements before building.
