Natalini & Son Masonry is a third-generation, family-owned masonry company that has served Greater Philadelphia since 1974. Over more than 50 years, the family has completed over 6,000 projects, from rowhome repointing in South Philly to patios, chimneys, and stone restoration across Center City and the surrounding neighborhoods. What ties all of it together is simple: every crew we send out is led by a member of the Natalini family. The name on the truck is the name doing the work.

Where It Started: 1974

The company began in 1974 as a small family masonry operation built on a straightforward idea, do honest work, do it right, and let the results bring the next job. In a city built almost entirely of brick and stone, there was no shortage of walls that needed a craftsman who knew what he was doing. The first generation earned a reputation one rowhome at a time, working the neighborhoods we still serve today.

Fifty-plus years later, that reputation is the foundation everything else stands on. You can read the fuller story on our about page.

Three Generations of Masons

Masonry is a trade you learn by doing, alongside someone who already knows it. That’s exactly how the craft has moved through our family:

• The first generation founded the business and set the standard, matching materials to the wall, controlling water, and never cutting the corners nobody sees.
• The second generation grew up on the job sites, learned the trade hands-on, and expanded the work across Greater Philadelphia.
• The third generation now leads the company, carrying the same standards into a new era while keeping the family directly on the tools and on the sites.

That continuity is rare in this trade, and it’s the whole reason the quality stays consistent. The people training today’s crews learned from the people who built the company’s name.

What 6,000+ Projects Looks Like

Over five decades, the work adds up to more than 6,000 completed projects across the region. That experience spans the full range of what Philadelphia masonry demands:

• Repointing and restoring historic brick rowhomes.
• Rebuilding and repairing chimneys.
• Brownstone and stone facade restoration in Center City.
• Patios, walkways, and stamped concrete for backyards.
• Retaining walls, steps, and structural masonry.

You can see a cross-section of finished work in our gallery, and the full range on our services page. The variety matters because Philadelphia’s building stock is so varied, the same block can hold a 150-year-old brick rowhome and a modern backyard patio, and a family that’s worked here for 50 years knows both.

Why a Family Name Changes the Work

When the business carries your family name, accountability isn’t a policy, it’s personal. We tell homeowners the truth about what their masonry needs, including when something can be repaired instead of fully replaced. We’re licensed and insured. And because a Natalini leads every crew, the standard set in 1974 is the standard on your job today.

That’s also why so much of our work comes from referrals and repeat clients across Center City and the surrounding neighborhoods. People hire the family, the family does the work, and the work brings the next call.
