Got a century stone farm home. Joints starting to Crack or breakdown.....give it a face-lift with a full restoration. It's been standing for over a century now, it deserves to go another!.....or looking to sell in the future, a full resto will increase resale values by hundreds of thousands.

A trend becoming more popular, a little bit of country feel to the fireplace with the half stone, but a modern touch with the upper in drywall. Very appealing.

A great fireplace in cottage country with the chimney to match.

Woodstove base and backup, all done with original brick that came off another part of the home when renos were done....then the same brick was used for the kitchen backslash and pier chase, except it had to be all cut with a saw and turned into thin veneer.....it would of been much easier for the customer to purchase new thin veneer brick that looked the same, but he opted for this to keep.the original brick with the home. A great choice.

Current job. Not completed yet, but what will be a stunning cottage on kashawakmak lake. This build is being done by Chisholms Lumber ....Look them up on here. They are one of the best builders in the area, and quality is number one. They would be at the top of my list to build a new home. Stay tuned in the upcoming weeks for finish pictures as the job gets completed.

A massive change. Big old wooden farmhouse. (See last Pic to see original) Converted to all stone top to bottom and every side. This was done with permacon sure touch product. A cool product that not only allowed us to stone this whole house without a brick ledge and major foundation work, but also added a much higher R value to the home with the products insulation layer. What a transformation.

A pretty little Rumford fireplace. This was a fun little project. It was for friend an neighbor Peter Kelly. I cannot take credit for all of this job. Together we built the fireplace all masonry to Rumford specs, and then Peter faced the outside himself in stone. He had no masonry experience, but he picked the the Rocks off his land and with a little guidance from me and alot of time he did a great job. Peter and his wife are extreme adventurers, and have traveled all over, but they have a passion and huge knowledge for 17th century history. He has a YouTube channel called the woodland escape. Check it out if you want to see the whole cabin build along with alot of other cool stuff about the way of life back then.
