Stone Masonry in Brick, NJ
Stone veneer, pillars, planters, caps and granite tops that make hardscapes look custom. Serving Brick homeowners — owner-led by Manasses Ribeiro, NJ HIC #13VH10566200.
Stone Masonry for Brick homes
Brick's bay and river neighborhoods need hardscape built for sand, high water tables and salt air — plus new steps and walkways for homes raised after Sandy.
Built for Brick ground
On sandy ground, every wall needs a wide, well-compacted footing — loose sand under a footing lets a wall settle unevenly. For stone masonry in Brick, we dig to firm ground, compact a level stone footing and backfill with clean drainage stone.

Stone masonry is the detail work that makes a hardscape look expensive: stacked stone on the steps, pillars at the walkway, a stone planter under the front windows, a granite cap on the fire pit. We build these on solid cores and finish them to match your home.
Where we use stone
- Steps — stacked-stone risers with thick stone treads.
- Pillars — at the walkway, driveway or the ends of a seating wall, often with cap lights.
- Planters and garden walls — stone-faced beds along the front of the house.
- Outdoor kitchens — stone-veneer grill islands and bars.
- Fire pits — stone surrounds and polished granite caps.
Built to stay on
Veneer fails when water gets behind it and freezes. We set stone over solid block or concrete cores, cap every top surface and keep water moving away — so the stone stays where we put it.

Stone Masonry in Brick: common questions
What is stone veneer?
Stone veneer is a facing of real or manufactured stone set over a solid core, like block or concrete. You get the look of solid stone on steps, walls, pillars and kitchens without the weight and cost.
Can you match stone that's already on my house?
We bring samples to the estimate and pick the closest match in color and texture. Exact matches to older stone aren't always possible, and we'll tell you up front.
Will stone veneer hold up to NJ winters?
When it's set over a solid, well-drained core with proper caps on top, yes. Water getting in behind the stone and freezing is what loosens veneer, so caps and drainage matter.
My house was raised. Can you build new steps and a landing?
Yes. Raised homes often need taller steps, landings and new walkways tied back to the driveway. We build them in pavers or stone veneer with consistent riser heights.
Does sandy soil need a different base?
Sand drains well but shifts easily. We compact the subgrade, build a dense stone base and lock the edges with restraint so the surface holds its shape.
