The short answer
In Chalfont, New Britain, Warrington and Hilltown, American Stone LS repoints stone houses, chimneys and foundations, restores flagstone and bluestone patios, walkways and steps, repairs stone and retaining walls, and seals stone with breathable penetrating sealers. Free on-site estimates from Luciano and Alex Sansalone.
Chalfont grew up where the creeks meet, and New Britain sits right next door to Doylestown. Between them and out through Warrington and Hilltown, there are older stone and stone-faced houses, and a lot of newer homes with flagstone patios, front walks, steps and garden walls that are now old enough to need care.
What we see here
- Patios and walks fifteen or twenty years old with open joints, weeds and loose stones.
- Front steps with loose treads and failing joints, which is a safety problem as well as a looks problem.
- Chimneys losing mortar near the top.
- Older stone homes near the creeks with damp foundations and tired pointing.
- Garden walls that need recapping and repointing.
What we do here
Most jobs here are about upkeep done right: repointing houses and chimneys, restoring patios, walks and steps, wall repair and sealing. A little attention every few years keeps stone looking good and saves you from bigger repairs later. Our yearly stone maintenance checklist shows what to look for.
