Stone Masonry
Crafted by Hand. Built to Endure.
Overview
What We Offer
Stone masonry is the most enduring form of craftsmanship an outdoor space can receive. At LandMasters, we build retaining walls, pillars, steps, and custom stonework that become permanent, defining elements of Martha's Vineyard estates — structures whose character deepens with every passing decade.
We work with natural fieldstone, granite, and hand-selected quarried materials. Each stone is placed with precision and intention. The result is masonry of a quality rarely seen outside historic properties — built correctly the first time, requiring no remediation for generations.
Key Benefits
- Natural fieldstone and quarried granite
- Retaining walls engineered for coastal conditions
- Custom pillars, steps, and garden walls
- Dry-stack and mortared techniques
- Structures designed to improve with age
- Authentic island aesthetic and character
How We Work
Our Process
Consultation
We assess the site, discuss your vision, and recommend materials that suit the character and scale of your property.
Stone Selection
We hand-select stone from trusted local and regional suppliers, choosing material for colour, texture, and structural integrity.
Foundation
Proper excavation and base preparation are the foundation of masonry that will not shift, settle, or fail under coastal freeze-thaw cycles.
Construction
Every stone is set by hand. Our masons work methodically, evaluating each placement for fit, level, and aesthetic harmony with those adjacent.
Final Review
We complete a thorough walkthrough to ensure every element meets our standard and confirm your satisfaction before we leave the site.
Why LandMasters
The LandMasters Difference
The masonry we build on Martha's Vineyard must contend with conditions that test lesser work: frost heave, salt saturation, and the relentless coastal wind. We have spent sixteen years perfecting techniques specific to this environment. The walls we placed a decade ago remain as true as the day they were set — a standard we hold ourselves to on every new project.
