Our Decorative Masonry Walls

Fit-To-Purpose & Durable Wall Systems

Our decorative masonry wall systems focus on creating secure, durable structures that function flawlessly while complementing your architectural vision. We install various types of decorative masonry wall systems according to application, design specifications and site requirements.

Stone Masonry Walls

A stone masonry decorative wall can be used as a distinctive design element to a project, enhancing the visual appeal and providing exceptional strength. We offer stone masonry walls and stone veneer cladding for architectural elements, perimeter walls and landscape structures.

Block Masonry Walls

While plain block masonry walls can be used for utilitarian privacy applications, split face blocks can provide the distinctive appeal to a wall project. Our block masonry walls provide decades of reliability with minimal maintenance requirements.

Concrete/Cement/CMU Block Walls

Our block walls are durable, cost-effective solutions for utilitarian privacy applications. Block masonry can be overlaid with other masonry materials such as stucco, brick, stone, stone slab, brick or stone veneer to create highly distinctive elements (see composite masonry walls).

Split Face Block Fence Walls

A split face block fence wall provides textural interest and architectural distinction for community perimeters. These specialized blocks feature two distinct surface finishes – one course and one smooth – creating visual interest while maintaining structural integrity.

Our block perimeter and privacy walls can also be used to create secluded spaces within residential communities while maintaining architectural consistency throughout the development.

Composite Masonry Walls

Composite masonry walls (often referred to as multi-wythe walls) offer versatility by combining multiple materials for enhanced aesthetic appeal and structural performance. Our expertise in composite masonry walls ensures proper integration of the masonry elements for superior performance:

Brick and Stone Composite Masonry Walls

Our brick and stone composite masonry walls combine these classic materials in various configurations:

Stone facing with brick backing
Stone slab facing with brick backing
Brick facing with concrete backing
Ashlar facing with brick backing
Ashlar facing with rubble backing

Each brick and stone composite wall configuration offers unique aesthetic and structural advantages while maintaining consistent quality and durability.

Concrete Block Composite Masonry Walls

Our concrete block composite walls can be used with a choice of overlay materials in various configurations:

Brick facing with concrete block backing or core
Stone slabs or stone veneer over concrete block
Stucco over concrete block

We ensure proper bonding and tying of different wythes (layers) to ensure the composite masonry wall acts as a single cohesive unit.  Our composite masonry walls offer superior craftsmanship and enhanced performance, providing both beauty and structural integrity for your property boundaries.

Embedded Identity Markers

Our decorative masonry walls can incorporate your community’s brand identity with embedded identity markers on architectural elements and wall columns. This distinctive feature includes:

Custom community logos or names integrated directly into the brick wall structure
Decorative elements that reflect the community’s architectural theme
Weather-resistant materials that maintain appearance for decades

Our embedded identity markers transform standard brick walls into signature architectural elements that distinguish your development. Our design team works closely with architects and developers to create custom marker solutions that align perfectly with your community vision and branding strategy.
