The best craftsman is the professional masonry contractor. Masonry structures are notable for their beauty, versatility, and ability to survive earthquakes and fire.
Clay brick is the oldest manufactured product and has been used in building construction for more than 6,000 years. Clay brick is only one aspect of masonry. Your masonry contractor works with these mediums: stone, mortar, grout, cements, plasters and stucco, concrete, cast stone, and other earthen material like adobe and terra cotta, as well as various coatings to preserve and protect your installation.
As building technologies go, masonry is often much more expensive than wood construction, but is desirable and is pleasing to the eye. Using stone and brick can make a building look as though it has stood for 200 years. On the opposite foot, concrete can be used for a more modern industrial appearance. Both can be done through the skill and craftsmanship of a quality, experienced masonry contractor.

New Jersey is surrounded by water except along the 50 mi (80 km) of northern border with New York state. The northern third of the state lies within the Appalachian Highland region, where ridges running northeast and southwest shelter valleys containing pleasant streams and glacial lakes. Beyond the crest of wooded slopes are long-established farms given over to dairying and field crops. The Kittatinny Mts., with the state's highest elevations (up to 1,803 ft/550 m), stretch across the northwest corner of New Jersey from the New York border to the Delaware Water Gap. In 1961 New Jersey, along with three other states and the federal government, signed the Delaware River Basin Compact, providing for the control of water resources and rights throughout the Delaware River basin.
