Huron Shores / Thessalon
Masonry that takes a Northern winter.
Stone, brick, chimneys, and Rumford fireplaces. Flashed where water sits, with joints that match the wall.
One crew
The same masons set the stone, the brick, and the firebox.
Stone we set
Natural stone and veneer stone. Masonal Stone, Cultured Stone and Aura, and we're a Banas Stone Dealer.
Two fireboxes
A lighter firebox when the floor is light. Rumford when you want heat.
Stone we deal
We source the stone and we set it.
Fireplaces
Masonry fireboxes are built here. Listed wood and gas units are on the fireplace line.
Supply and install
Isokern fireplaces
We supply the firebox and install it. Standard, Magnum, and Maximus, with firebrick, a damper, a chimney, a hearth, and a stone or brick face.
Exterior
Stone that takes the weather.
Veneer, full bed, chimneys, block, and the caps and pavers at grade. Flashed where water sits.
Interior
The wall you live next to.
Accent walls, surrounds, and hearths. Rumford behind the face when the fire is masonry.
Brick
Residential brick, outside and in.
Brick on the house, and brick inside it. Walls, chimneys, fireplace faces, and entries. New work. An old wall that needs the mortar matched is the heritage line, not this one.
Residential brick installationMasonal Stone
Wall veneer, stone panels, and feature walls.
Masonal Stone owns the quarry. Veneer on the house, panels on a fireplace, and a feature wall in the room. Official product photographs from masonalstone.com.

The stone around an outdoor fire. The unit itself is chosen on basswoodfireplaces.ca.
Heritage Restoration
Brick and stone buildings repaired with mortar that matches the wall, not a hard cement smear.
Commercial Block
Concrete block that is plumb, so the building and the stone have something true to sit on.
Residential Chimneys
A real masonry stack, brick, stone, or river rock, built for fire, ice, and Shield weather.
Chimney Repair
Crowns, caps, tuckpointing, flashing, spalled brick, and fireboxes that no longer hold a fire.
Indoor Accent Walls
A stone wall inside the house, fireplace, entry, or a full height, in a line we actually deal.
How a job runs
Four steps. No handoff into the dark.
01
Walk the wall
The chimney, the brick, the opening, or the foundation. Photos get us started. The site tells us if the quote is honest.
02
Name the material
Masonal, Cultured Stone, firebrick, block, or lime mortar. The product is specified before it is ordered.
03
Set, flash, and point
Plumb courses. Flashing where water will try to get in. Joints finished for freeze-thaw, not for a photograph taken the same day.
04
Leave it tight
The cap, the flashing, and the last course are part of the job. A wet wall is not finished.
