Masonry columns are one of those details that elevate a property from nice to impressive. Flanking a driveway entrance, supporting a porch roof, anchoring a garden gate, or holding up a pergola — columns add weight and permanence that wood or metal just can't match.
We build columns from brick, natural stone, and block with stone veneer. Each material gives a different look. Brick columns tie in with traditional Michigan homes. Stone columns bring a natural, estate-like feel. Block cores with stone veneer give you the stone appearance with a more economical structure.
Every column we build sits on a reinforced concrete footing below the frost line — 42 inches in West Michigan. Inside, we install a steel rebar cage and fill the core with grout. This isn't just a stack of bricks — it's a reinforced masonry structure that handles lateral wind loads and vertical weight.
Mailbox pillars are one of our most popular column projects. A well-built brick or stone mailbox pillar at your driveway entrance is a small investment that makes a big first impression. We install the mailbox hardware, lighting options, and address numbers as part of the project.
We build masonry columns throughout Grand Rapids, Ada, Forest Hills, East Grand Rapids, Cascade, and the surrounding area. Driveway entrance columns, porch columns, fence pier columns, gate pillars — whatever column project you have in mind.
