Helpful first details for masonry
Tell us what you want to build or repair, and share photos of the surrounding area.
A beautiful surface starts below ground
Settlement and cracking happen when the base fails. We excavate deeply, establish a solid foundation, and pitch surfaces correctly so water drains away from your home and masonry.
Targeted repairs vs. full rebuilds
If a few stones are loose, we provide targeted mortar and joint repairs. If there's widespread frost damage or sinking, we'll recommend lifting and resetting the area for long-term stability.
Matching your home's character
We carefully select stone types, mortar colors, and joint styles so that new walls and patios look like they've always belonged with your property.

Direct answers
Questions homeowners ask before moving forward
Clear answers help you decide whether the next step is a fit. Project-specific facts are confirmed during review and documented before work begins.
Does Kennedy accept masonry requests in Newtown?
Yes. Kennedy accepts masonry requests in Newtown. Availability is confirmed after the property, scope, timing, and any qualified-trade requirements are reviewed.
What should I send for a masonry review?
Share the property town, observed condition or desired result, affected areas, timing, and any plans or previous diagnoses. Kennedy can arrange secure sharing if photos or documents are needed after the initial review.
Can you reuse my existing stone for a repair?
Often, yes. If the existing stone or brick is in good condition, we can lift, clean, and relay it on a newly prepared, stable base.
Why is my patio or walkway sinking?
Sinking is usually caused by poor initial base preparation, water washout, or freeze-thaw cycles. We fix the underlying drainage issue before repairing the surface.
Can you match the color of my older brick or stone?
We source materials meticulously to achieve the closest possible visual match, though some natural weathering variation is to be expected.
Do retaining walls require drainage?
Yes, absolutely. A retaining wall without proper backfill drainage will eventually fail due to hydrostatic pressure and freezing water.
Do larger-lot projects require a site visit?
Many do. Access, grade, utilities, drainage, structures, and distance between work areas are difficult to assess from close-up photos alone.
