Stonework & Stone Walls
Split-face sandstone, random ashlar, dry-stone looks and stone cladding, built by hand. We design and lay stone walls inside and out that become the centrepiece of the house.
Stonework & Stone Walls, done right.
Stone rewards patience. Each piece is selected, dressed and set so the coursing, colour and joints read as one piece of work. We build internal and external feature walls, garden and boundary walls, stair walls, columns and entry features in natural sandstone and other stone.
Boss Masonry is Sydney's go-to for custom and bespoke masonry. If you have a picture of what you want, we will work out how to build it.

Feature walls inside the home
A stone wall behind a staircase, fireplace or dining table changes a room. We protect floors and finishes, work cleanly indoors and build the wall to suit your joinery, lighting and ceiling lines.
Stone walls outside
Boundary walls, garden walls and entry walls in sandstone are built to last generations. We lay them on proper footings, with drainage and weep holes where needed.
What goes into your quote
Every job is quoted after a site visit. These are the main things that change the price.

Hand-dressed and split-face finishes take longer than sawn stone.
Wall type
Full-thickness walls cost more than stone cladding over a substrate.
Stonework & Stone Walls across the North Shore
Based in Lane Cove North, we work across Sydney with most jobs on the Lower and Upper North Shore.
What stone do you work with?
Mostly Sydney sandstone in split-face, rock-faced and sawn finishes, plus other natural stones and cladding systems on request.
Can you build a stone feature wall inside my house?
Yes. We build internal feature walls behind stairs, fireplaces and living areas, working cleanly and protecting existing finishes.
Is stone cladding as good as a solid stone wall?
Cladding gives the same look for less weight and cost, and suits internal walls and renovations. Solid stone suits structural and retaining walls.
Do you work from architect drawings?
Yes, and from photos or sketches. We will talk through what is buildable and what it will cost.
