Expert stonework and brick repair built to last through New England’s toughest weather conditions.
You need masonry work that holds up when the temperature drops to single digits and climbs back to 80 degrees the next week. Boston’s weather beats up brick and stone, but the right contractor makes all the difference.
When your masonry is done right, you stop worrying about water seeping through cracks every spring. You stop seeing pieces of mortar on the ground after every freeze. Your property value stays protected, and you avoid those emergency calls when small problems turn into big ones.
That’s what happens when someone who understands Boston’s climate handles your stonework from the start. No surprises, no callbacks, no watching the same problem come back next season.
Academy Masonry has been handling Boston’s toughest masonry challenges for years. We know which materials hold up in this climate and which shortcuts lead to problems down the road.
Our team works throughout the Boston area, from historic brownstones in Back Bay to commercial buildings in Cambridge. We’re licensed and insured in Massachusetts, and we understand local building codes inside and out.
When you call us, you’re working with contractors who live here, work here, and have seen what happens when masonry isn’t done right the first time.
First, we come out to assess what you’re dealing with. We look at the obvious problems and the ones that might not be obvious yet. You get a detailed written estimate that breaks down materials, labor, and timeline.
Once we start, we protect your landscaping and clean up daily. We use materials rated for New England weather – not the cheap stuff that fails in three years. Our crew shows up when scheduled and keeps you updated on progress.
After we finish, we walk through everything with you and explain how to spot potential issues early. You get a written warranty on our work, and you have our number if questions come up later.

We handle everything from small brick repairs to complete building restoration. Chimney work, foundation repairs, retaining walls, walkways, and historic preservation projects. If it’s made of stone, brick, or block, we can fix it or build it.
Boston’s older properties need contractors who understand traditional techniques. We know how to match existing mortar and work with materials that have been in place for decades. We also handle modern commercial projects that need to meet today’s codes and standards.
Emergency repairs get priority scheduling because we know water damage doesn’t wait for convenient timing. Whether it’s a small crack that needs attention or a wall that needs rebuilding, we have the tools and experience to handle it right.
