Take a peak

Masonry is more than just appearance — it’s structure, moisture control, and longevity. At Renova Renovation, we provide full-service masonry work across Victoria BC, from chimney rebuilds and retaining walls to decorative stone veneers and brick repair. With over 11 years of experience, we understand the local soil, weather patterns, and permitting requirements that affect masonry durability. We use materials from Mutual Materials and White Cap, and follow best practices like proper footing depth, weep systems for drainage, and compatible mortar mixes to ensure the work holds up for decades — not just until the next rainstorm. We also help homeowners avoid overpaying by passing along contractor pricing and advising when standard hardware store materials are acceptable for non-structural elements.

Average Masonry Work Cost in Victoria, BC

The biggest cost factor in masonry is the kind of work you're doing and how complex it is. Structural retaining walls with excavation, a compacted gravel base, rebar, and proper drainage usually run between $80–$140 per linear foot. Decorative walls without reinforcement typically stay closer to $45–$70/ft. If you're rebuilding a chimney, expect pricing anywhere from $4,500 to $12,000, depending on height, condition, and finish details. Full stone veneer siding installs fall between $35–$60 per square foot, with natural stone at the higher end. Challenging site conditions — like tight access, slope, or demolition — can increase total cost by 25%–40%.Material selection is the other major price driver. Products like real stone, face brick, or custom caps cost more — even at contractor pricing. For basic or non-structural features like garden edging, we often recommend CMU block, pavers, or dry-stack kits from Home Depot, Lowe's — they look good, last, and can cut costs by 15%–30%. We'll guide you on what’s worth upgrading and where you can save without sacrificing performance.

Masonry Work Cost Guide

Masonry isn’t just about stacking bricks — it’s about making sure what’s behind those bricks doesn’t fail later. At Renova Renovation, we’ve seen what happens when shortcuts are taken: moisture gets in, joints start to crack, and you end up repairing the same wall twice.

Consultation and Site Walkthrough

Initial Call or Text

We start with a quick conversation to understand the scope. If it’s a small repair — like mortar repointing or patching cracked stone — we can often quote it directly by phone or text with photos.

Site Visit

For larger jobs like fireplaces, retaining walls, or full veneer installs, we schedule a site visit with one of our experienced masonry estimators. We’ll evaluate the site conditions, drainage, surface prep, and access — and discuss style preferences, material choices, and budget goals.

Proposal Sent Within 24–48 Hours

We send a detailed line-item estimate with breakdowns for demo, materials, labor, and cleanup — so there are no surprises.

Design, Materials & Permitting

Scope Confirmation & Layout Planning

Once approved, we finalize layout details like wall height, stone pattern, joint thickness, and drainage slopes. For decorative veneers, we’ll help match stone types and finishes to your home’s architecture.

Permits Handling

For structural work (chimneys, retaining walls over 4 feet, or foundation-related repairs), we handle permits through Victoria, BC. Our team schedules any required inspections — whether it’s footing depth, rebar, or gas line clearance.

Materials Procurnment

We purchase most materials from White Cap, K2 Stone using products that hold up to Victoria’s freeze/thaw cycles. For small accent projects, we’ll advise if Home Depot products are acceptable. All materials are delivered and staged either at our warehouse or on-site — ready before the work starts.

Remodeling and Finishing

Work Begins Only When Ready

We don’t start the clock until everything’s in place. That means no mid-job delays waiting on stone deliveries or special orders. Once materials and permits are ready, the crew gets to work.

Experienced Masonry Crew & Foreman

Every job is led by a foreman with 20+ years of experience. Whether it’s a block wall or a detailed fireplace surround, we check drainage, joint spacing, slope, flashing, and bonding — and update you along the way.

Final Walkthrough & Job Turnover

After inspections and cleanup, we walk the site with you, review the work, and complete a final punch list if needed. We leave you with a finished product that’s clean, solid, and well built

FAQ

What does masonry usually cost?

Basic fixes like mortar patching start around $1,200–$3,000. Chimney rebuilds and reinforced retaining walls are typically $5,000–$15,000+. For stone veneer siding, expect $35–$60 per sq ft, depending on the material and how easy the access is.

Do I need a permit?

If the work is structural — chimney, foundation, or anything over 4 feet — yes. We take care of the permit and inspections. Small, non-structural stuff like veneer over existing walls usually doesn’t need one.

What materials are best?

We use CMU blocks, full brick, or cast stone for structural jobs. For decorative work, cultured stone or brick veneer is a solid, budget-friendly option. We’ll walk you through what makes sense based on your home.

How long do masonry jobs take?

Small repairs can be done in a day or two. Veneers or walls usually take 4–7 days. Bigger projects that need digging or drainage work run about 1–2 weeks, depending on the job site.

Day and Night

Quality Masonry Services for Victoria Homeowners

You want brick or stone that looks good and lasts. You also want straight answers. We get it.

At Renova Renovation, we handle residential masonry across Greater Victoria. Small fixes. Full rebuilds. Clear scope and clean work.

Why materials matter here

Victoria is wet and windy. Salt air near the water. Freeze–thaw now and then. Cheap units crumble. Good units hold up.

We source from local suppliers like Slegg, RONA, and Home Depot. We can also bring in specialty stone from Island yards or Mainland vendors if your design needs it. You do not have to buy the most expensive option. We’ll show where to spend and where to save.

Masonry services

Fireplaces and chimneys
Rebuilds, repointing, caps, liners, and rain guards. Interior brick or stone features that feel solid, not flimsy.
Exterior brick and stone
Veneers, steps, porches, garden walls, column wraps, and sills.
Retaining walls
Concrete block systems, natural stone, or boulders. Proper base and real drainage so it stays put.
Repair and restoration
Repointing failing joints, swapping cracked units, fixing bulges, and tying loose sections back to structure.
Pavers and paths
Patios, walkways, and landings with tight edges and even grades.

Short job or large project. Same care.

Stone veneer basics

Natural stone veneer is cut from real stone. Strong and timeless. Heavier and usually pricier.
Manufactured stone looks close to natural. Lighter, easier to install, and friendly on budget.
Both can look great. Your site, budget, and style decide the winner.

Retaining wall basics

Most walls use block systems that interlock. They need:

Compacted base
Level first course
Drain rock and pipe behind the wall
Filter fabric to keep fines out

Natural stone and boulders work well for lower garden walls and a softer look.

Heads up: In BC, taller walls often need engineering. Over about 1.2 m usually triggers stamped drawings and permits. We’ll check with your municipality before we dig.

Permits and inspections

City or District permits for structural work where required
CRD disposal rules for rubble and concrete
Gas or wood fireplace work done to current code and manufacturer specs

We handle the paperwork and book inspections.

Cost and sourcing

Pricing depends on access, prep, and material choice. We share a line-by-line scope. You see the unit costs. We pass along our contractor pricing where possible. No surprises.

Our process

Quick call and site visit. Photos help.
Options and a clear written scope.
Schedule set. Site protection goes in.
Prep, foundation, and drainage.
Build, clean joints, seal where needed.
Sweep, wash, and a final walkthrough.

Have a chimney that sheds sand. Steps that wobble. Or a wall that leans after winter. Send two or three photos and your area. We’ll take a look and tell you what it needs. Plain talk. Solid work. Victoria local.
