For three generations, Petty Masonry has hand-built the fireplaces, chimneys, patios, and stonework that define Marin's finest homes. Timeless materials, exacting craft, and a name behind every joint since 1954.
From a single chimney repair to a full outdoor living space, every project is built by hand with natural stone, brick, and decades of know-how.
Hand-cut stone and cast-stone fireplaces, surrounds, and mantels, indoor and out, including Isokern installs.
Chimney repair, tuckpointing, sealing, inspections, and brick restoration that brings tired masonry back to life.
Patios, outdoor kitchens, fire pits, pizza ovens, and fountains that turn a backyard into a destination.
Full and thin stone veneer, limestone panels, and wainscot that give any wall the weight of real stone.
Engineered stone retaining walls, pavers, paver pedestal systems, and roof decks built to hold for decades.
Custom stone fountains and water features that become the centerpiece of a garden or courtyard.
Stone and brick stairs, pool coping, interior stone floors, and pre-cast installation, set true and level.
Brick and stone wine cellars, fireplace faces, surrounds, and bespoke stonework for one-of-a-kind spaces.
Petty Masonry began with Arthur Petty in 1954 and has been built, joint by joint, by the family ever since. Today the same hands-on standard runs through every crew, with more than 80 years of combined masonry experience on the wall.
We work in natural stone and brick because they last. Done right, masonry is the part of a home that outlives everything around it, and that is the only way we know how to build it.

Cracked mortar, leaning chimneys, and weathered stone are our specialty. We restore failing masonry to structural and visual health, matching original materials so the repair disappears. Ask us for a free chimney inspection.
