Brick & Stone Work
Brick & Stone Work in Ottawa, Stittsville, Kemptville & Orleans
Repair, veneer, chimneys and pillars
Repair, veneer, chimneys and pillars
Masonry work on a house is visible from the street, which means a poor repair is permanently obvious. Mismatched brick, mortar in the wrong colour, joints that do not line up — all of it reads from the sidewalk.
We repair and replace brick, install stone veneer, repair chimneys and build decorative pillars, on both homes and commercial buildings. The emphasis is on matching: brick colour and size, mortar colour and joint profile, coursing that lines through with what is already there.
Stone veneer is also one of the better value upgrades available on an exterior. Applied to a foundation face, a porch, pillars or a feature wall, it changes the character of a facade for far less than rebuilding anything structural.

Our Process
How the job actually runs
- 1
Assessment and matching
We look at the existing masonry, identify the unit and mortar, and work out what will match. Where an exact match no longer exists we discuss the options honestly.
- 2
Removal
Failed units carefully removed without disturbing the sound masonry around them.
- 3
Prep
Substrate prepared, and for veneer, the proper backing and moisture management installed before anything is applied.
- 4
Install
Units set with coursing that lines through, consistent joint widths, and mortar matched in colour and profile.
- 5
Pointing and finish
Joints tooled to match the surrounding finish, surfaces cleaned down, and the work reviewed with you.

Common Questions
Brick & Stone Work — questions we get asked
Can you match my brick exactly?
Often very closely. Brick colours and sizes change over the decades, so on older homes an exact match is not always available. Where it is not, we look at the best available option and where to place it so it is least noticeable.
Is stone veneer durable in this climate?
Yes, when it is installed with proper backing and moisture management behind it. Most veneer failures are water-management failures, not product failures.
Do you do full chimney rebuilds?
We repair and rebuild chimney masonry. On assessment we will tell you plainly whether the scope is repair or whether you are looking at a rebuild.
Can you work on commercial buildings?
Yes — entrances, facades and masonry repair for commercial and retail properties, including property management work.
Also Available
One contractor for the rest of the exterior too
Most projects touch more than one trade. Because we cover the full exterior, the drainage, parging or lighting that turns up mid-project does not mean finding another contractor.

Steps & Stairs
Safe, solid front steps and landings that match your home
Retaining Walls
