For 2026, most Hartford County homeowners pay within these ranges for complete, properly built masonry work. Wall area, height, material, and how much of the old mortar is shot move the number — but these are the honest starting figures before anyone walks the wall.
Typically $6–$14 per square foot for straightforward ground-level work, with small jobs running $400–$2,500 and the average repointing job around $1,450.
Typically $5,000–$25,000 for a single-story home and $7,000–$38,000 for two stories. The job that resets a brick home's clock for decades.
Typically $3,500–$10,000 for repointing and stabilizing a fieldstone or rubble foundation — the most common masonry job in Connecticut's oldest homes.
Typically $25–$50 per square foot of wall face for segmental block and $50–$100+ for natural stone, drainage and footing included.
Typically $15–$40 per square foot for pavers and $25–$60 for natural stone. A granite or bluestone step set runs $1,500–$5,000.
Work above about 8 feet needs scaffolding, and per-foot pricing steps up with height. Budget for access on two-story walls and tall foundations — it is a real line item, not padding.

Exterior masonry slows in deep winter because mortar needs temperatures above about 40°F to cure properly. That makes the cold months the right time to get the quote, not the wrong time to call:
