Residential Masonry in Richmond: what to know

Richmond residential masonry covers Steveston heritage work, foundation repairs on older Terra Nova homes, and new stone and brick features on the modern builds going up in City Centre and Brighouse.

We work on houses across Burnaby and Metro Vancouver, from older character homes that need careful repair to new builds that want a standout brick or stone exterior. Homeowners are our bread and butter, so we keep it straightforward: tidy crews, honest quotes, respect for your property, and masonry that lifts the look and value of your home.

When Richmond homeowners call us for residential masonry

Boosting your home's curb appeal

Brick or stone on the facade, entry, or columns is one of the highest-impact upgrades a home can get.

Fixing aging masonry

Crumbling mortar, a leaning chimney, or cracked brick on an older home all need proper repair before they get worse.

Building out your yard

Patios, retaining walls, steps, and fire features turn a backyard into usable, good-looking living space.

A renovation or addition

Adding on or renovating? We match and extend existing masonry or build something new to fit.

Richmond properties: what we see

Richmond sits near sea level on a river delta, which fundamentally changes the engineering requirements for any masonry structure. The water table is high, the soil compresses under load, and drainage doesn't happen the way it does on sloped lots. Steveston has heritage brick and some of the oldest commercial masonry in the region. The City Centre and Brighouse areas have dense residential and commercial development where stone veneer and block work are common. Terra Nova's newer houses have original stone veneer installations that are now 15–20 years old.

We work throughout Richmond — including Steveston, Brighouse, Terra Nova, City Centre — and we know how the terrain, housing stock, and climate vary across the city. Every quote reflects what we actually see on site.

Residential Masonry in Richmond: FAQs

Do you do residential masonry in Richmond?

Yes. Burnaby Masonry Co. covers Richmond and all of Metro Vancouver for residential masonry. Richmond sits near sea level on soft soil, so foundation prep and proper footings are non-negotiable for any wall we build there.

Can you build a retaining wall on Richmond's soft soil?

Yes — but the footing and drainage requirements are different from sloped lots in other cities. Richmond's high water table means footings need to go deeper, gravel drainage beds need to be wider, and the wall needs to be sized for hydrostatic pressure. We spec every Richmond wall for the actual soil conditions.

My Richmond stone veneer is falling off the wall. Why?

Usually it's a failed adhesive bond — either the scratch coat failed, the drainage mat was missing so moisture got behind the stone, or the original installation didn't follow the right substrate prep. We assess the cause before proposing a fix, because patching over a drainage problem just delays the next failure.

What kinds of residential masonry do you do?

Everything a home needs: brick and stone facades, chimneys, garden and retaining walls, patios, steps, fireplaces, and repairs on older homes. One crew for all of it.
