Old-world craft.
Modern reliability.
A small, third-generation masonry shop quietly restoring the brick and stone homes of Pittsburgh's South Hills — one carefully matched mortar joint at a time.
The Craft
Work meant to last a hundred years.
Most masonry failures aren't from age — they're from the wrong mortar, in the wrong joint, by someone in a hurry. We work in lime-based mixes matched to the original wall, hand-rake each joint, and only take on a small number of projects a year so every one gets the time it deserves.

From the South Hills.
"Jonas repointed the front of our 1928 brick — the new joints are indistinguishable from the old. Quiet, careful, and on time."
"Rebuilt our chimney from the roofline up. Explained every step, cleaned up like he was never there. Worth the wait."
"We had three masons look at our foundation. Hammer & Trowel was the only one who actually understood the stonework."
