Brick Masonry in Surrey: what to know
Surrey's brick masonry spans a century of building — from Cloverdale's early heritage brickwork to post-war bungalows to modern veneer on new builds. We work on all of it with the right approach for each era.
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 Surrey 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.
Surrey properties: what we see
Surrey is Metro Vancouver's largest city by area, and its masonry landscape reflects that diversity. Cloverdale has the oldest housing stock in Surrey — some of the city's pre-war homes and commercial buildings are there, with original brick and heritage character. South Surrey and White Rock have higher-end residential along the waterfront where natural stone and quality masonry finishes are the standard. Fleetwood, Newton, and Whalley have the broad middle market of post-war and 1980s–2000s construction with chimneys, retaining walls, and stone veneer updates. The scale of the city means we're in Surrey frequently.
We work throughout Surrey — including Cloverdale, South Surrey, Fleetwood, Newton, White Rock — 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 Surrey
- 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 Surrey
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.
