Brick Walls, Pillars & Columns in West Medford, Medford, MA
Looking for brick walls, pillars & columns in West Medford in Medford, MA? Ultimate Boston Masonry is a licensed, insured, family-owned masonry contractor serving Medford and the rest of Middlesex County from our Boston base. Medford has a mix of colonial-era stone and 1920s brick. Both need different mortar, and we test before quoting.
Housing in West Medford in Medford includes homes sitting on fieldstone and block foundations, 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.
