Looking for outdoor fireplaces & fire pits in Derby Street in Salem, MA? Ultimate Boston Masonry is a licensed, insured, family-owned masonry contractor serving Salem and the rest of Essex County from our Boston base. Salem has some of the oldest masonry in the country. Historic lime mortar and correct joint profiles are non-negotiable here.

Housing in Derby Street in Salem includes homes sitting on fieldstone and block foundations, and spring snowmelt that saturates masonry and soil is what wears this masonry down. That is why our outdoor fireplaces & fire pits work starts with understanding what your building is made of — brick type, stone, mortar hardness, and drainage — before we price anything. An outdoor fireplace or fire pit turns a patio into a space you use most of the year. We build with firebrick cores, correct flue sizing, and finishes that tie into the rest of your masonry.
