Masonry contractor in Hoboken, NJ.

Mile-square city, pre-1900 brownstones, brick walkups older than almost anything else we touch. We started taking Hoboken jobs around 2014. The first one was a brownstone stoop on the Castle Point side that the prior contractor had rebuilt with the wrong stone color. We've been back every season since for façade repointing, stoop rebuilds, and the occasional rear-yard patio on the narrow lots.

Permits & code

We handle the paperwork

Hoboken's construction office is on Newark Street. Most façade and stoop work needs a permit; pre-1900 buildings sometimes pull preservation review as well. We file directly, walk the application through, and submit mortar samples when the board asks.

Questions homeowners ask

FAQs about Hoboken jobs.

Things we've been asked most often by homeowners we've worked with in Hoboken. Don't see your question? Give us a call.

Can you match brownstone tone for a Hoboken stoop rebuild?

Yes. We source matched-tone replacement stone from Connecticut quarries when the original supplier's stone is no longer available. The cut and weathering profile matters as much as the color.

Why won't Portland mortar work on a Hoboken walkup?

Most pre-1900 Hoboken brick was laid with soft lime mortar, soft so the joints absorb building movement instead of the brick face. Repoint with hard modern Portland mortar and the brick starts spalling fast. We use Type N lime-rich mortar matched to the original binder.

Can you do a rear-yard patio on a narrow Hoboken lot?

Yes, we've done a fair number in the Southwest. Material gets staged curbside per the parking schedule, drainage goes to the street outlet (rear-yard pumps aren't an option in most cases), and the install runs 5 to 7 days.
