About Us

North Shore Concrete & Masonry is a family-owned masonry and concrete contractor based in Duluth, Minnesota. We specialize in retaining walls, patios, fireplaces, brickwork, chimney repairs, and concrete restoration for residential and commercial properties across the North Shore region.

Every structure we build is designed for the demands of northern Minnesota — freeze-thaw cycles, heavy snow loads, and lakefront exposure. We use locally sourced materials where possible and stand behind every project from foundation to finish.

Whether you need a new stone patio, a structural retaining wall on a hillside lot, or repairs to aging concrete and masonry, we bring the same attention to detail and honest communication to every job. Bonded and insured, with free estimates on all work.

      Thank you Josh and the North Shore Masonry crew! I had so many questions before starting a retaining wall project at my home. Communication was great throughout and I always felt like I understood what to expect. The team answered all of my questions, gave recommendations specific to my project, and talked through options while getting my input along the way. The crew was right on schedule with what was communicated to me and made the whole experience stress free. Really happy with the final result and would absolutely work with the North Shore Masonry team again in the future.

      We are frequently working with North Shore Concrete and Masonry. They do an excellent job, and arrive on schedule and complete their work on schedule. Most importantly they do a very job! Arno

      Josh has done an apron in front of my garage and a patio at my current place. They both turned out great. Hopefully he'll be doing the slab at our new place when we build in the spring. Could not recommend him and his crew more!

We are a family-owned masonry contractor based in Duluth, MN. Every project is handled directly by our team — not subcontracted out. We specialize in building for northern Minnesota conditions, which means proper footings, freeze-thaw-rated materials, and drainage built into every job. We are bonded and insured, and we stand behind our work.

North Shore Concrete & Masonry provides a wide range of masonry services including brickwork, stonework, concrete work, and repairs for residential and commercial properties.

We offer a full range of masonry and concrete services including retaining wall construction, patio design and construction, fireplace installation, brickwork, step installation, chimney repairs, concrete repair, masonry restoration, and landscape hardscaping. We work with natural stone, brick, concrete block, and poured concrete for both residential and commercial projects.

The construction season in the Duluth area typically runs from May through October, depending on weather conditions. Masonry and concrete work requires consistent temperatures above 40 degrees Fahrenheit for proper curing. We recommend booking early in spring to secure your spot in the schedule, as the season fills up quickly.

Project timelines depend on scope and complexity. A concrete repair or step installation may take one to three days. A retaining wall or patio typically takes three to seven days. Larger projects like fireplace construction or full masonry restoration can take one to three weeks. We provide a timeline estimate with every quote and keep you informed throughout the project.
