Kensington's Hillside Homes Require Specialized Masonry
Here in Kensington, your property sits on some of the steepest terrain in the East Bay, and that creates unique masonry challenges. The winding streets like Sunset Drive, Beloit Avenue, and Coventry Road follow dramatic elevation changes that put extra stress on retaining walls, foundations, and hardscape features. Many customers in Kensington call us for terraced retaining walls that turn steep slopes into usable outdoor spaces, plus repairs on existing walls that have shifted or cracked as the ground settles over time.
Properties in Kensington often deal with water runoff issues during winter storms, making proper drainage integration essential for any masonry project in this hillside community. We design solutions that handle these challenges while preserving the natural beauty that makes your neighborhood special.
Historic Character Meets Modern Masonry Needs
Kensington's mix of Craftsman bungalows, Tudor revivals, and ranch homes from the 1920s through 1960s means we work with diverse architectural styles and masonry materials. Your brick chimney might be original to a 1930s home, or you could have a stone fireplace that needs restoration after decades of use. The unincorporated status of Kensington gives you more flexibility with some projects compared to neighboring cities, but it also means working with Contra Costa County building departments requires attention to detail.
We provide chimney repair and rebuilding services that maintain your home's original character while ensuring safety and function. From brick repairs on Craftsman-era homes to modern stone veneer installations, we match our work to your home's style and the neighborhood's standards.
