Brick Masonry in Maple Ridge: what to know
Brick masonry in Maple Ridge is primarily repair and maintenance on the city's older housing stock, combined with new brick features on the larger lots that have the space for real masonry investment.
Brick masonry covers everything we do with brick — new brickwork, repairs, facades, columns, chimneys, garden walls, and features. We're bricklayers first, and brick is the material we've built the most of across Burnaby and Metro Vancouver. Whether you need a new brick wall laid from scratch, a failing brick chimney rebuilt, or existing brickwork repaired and repointed, we do it right: proper footing, matched mortar, and joints tooled clean. Full-service brick masonry, one crew, one quote.

When Maple Ridge homeowners call us for brick masonry
New brickwork on a home or addition
Planning a new brick wall, facade, or feature? We lay it properly — right footing, bond pattern, and joint profile.
Failing mortar or crumbling brick
Crumbling joints and spalling brick let water in fast. The earlier we catch it, the simpler the fix.
Chimney work
Chimneys are the hardest-worked brick on any house. Crown repairs, repointing, and rebuilds are all in our scope.
Heritage homes with soft brick
Old brick needs lime mortar, not modern Portland. We work on pre-1940 homes across New Westminster, East Vancouver, and Burnaby all the time.
Maple Ridge properties: what we see
Maple Ridge has a character shaped by its position at the edge of the Metro Vancouver urban area — larger lots, some rural acreages, and a historic downtown core along 224th Street with original brick from the early 1900s. Silver Valley and Albion are the newer subdivisions on sloped terrain where retaining walls and outdoor living features are common. Thornhill and Ruskin have a more rural flavour with larger properties. The mix of heritage masonry in the historic core, slope-driven retaining structures in the newer subdivisions, and large-lot outdoor features makes Maple Ridge an interesting masonry market.
We work throughout Maple Ridge — including Historic Downtown, Albion, Silver Valley, Thornhill, Ruskin — and we know how the terrain, housing stock, and climate vary across the city. Every quote reflects what we actually see on site.
How we do brick masonry in Maple Ridge
- 1
Assess the brick and mortar
We look at what type of brick you have, how the mortar is holding, and what the job actually needs — repair, repoint, or new build.
- 2
Match the mortar
On older homes we match lime mortar to the original. On newer work we specify the right Portland blend for strength and colour.
- 3
Build or repair
New brick goes up level and plumb on a proper footing. Repairs cut out only what's failed and replace it with a match.
- 4
Tool and clean
Joints get tooled to a clean profile that sheds water. The face gets washed down and the site cleared before we leave.
Why choose Burnaby Masonry for brick masonry in Maple Ridge
Bricklayers, not generalists
Brick is what we do most. We've laid and repaired it on hundreds of Burnaby and Metro Vancouver properties.
Right mortar for the age of the wall
Soft brick gets soft mortar. Using hard modern mix on old brick causes spalling — we've seen it, and we don't do it.
New and repair under one roof
We handle both new brickwork and repairs, so one trade handles everything from the footing to the finished joint.
Heritage experience
Pre-1940 character homes across the Lower Mainland are a big part of our work. Lime mortar, matched brick, invisible repairs.
