Tired of Masonry Contractors in NJ Who Disappear After the Deposit?
You’ve been there. You call three companies, one calls back, they send a salesperson — not the person actually doing the work — and then the crew that shows up is someone you’ve never met and can’t hold accountable. Here’s what that looks like in practice:
“I wasn’t sure if they were even licensed” — NJ HIC License #13VH12460700 is posted on every page of our site. Look it up.
“I couldn’t get anyone to return my call for a week” — When you reach out to ARD, you get a same-day callback. David answers his phone.
“They sent some random crew I’d never seen before” — The owner, David Roth, is physically present on your property for every project. You know exactly who’s responsible.
“The patio looked fine at first, then started shifting after one winter” — Every masonry job at ARD carries a 100% Lifetime Transferable Warranty. If it fails, we fix it.
“I got three wildly different quotes and had no idea who to trust” — We’ll beat any reasonable estimate and walk you through exactly what the job requires — nothing more, nothing less.

Everything You Need for Outdoor Masonry That Lasts — Done Right the First Time
Custom Patios
We build stone, brick, and concrete patios tailored to your outdoor space and how you actually use it. A poorly built patio cracks, shifts, and becomes an eyesore within a few winters. You walk away with a patio that stays level, drains correctly, and looks exactly the way you envisioned it.
Retaining Walls
A failing retaining wall doesn’t just look bad — it’s a structural problem that gets worse every season. We engineer and build retaining walls in natural stone, concrete block, and brick that hold grade, control drainage, and add genuine property value. You walk away with a wall that won’t shift, won’t lean, and won’t need to be rebuilt in five years.
Walkways & Driveways
Your driveway and walkways are the first thing guests and buyers see. We install bluestone, paver, brick, and concrete walkways and driveways with proper base prep — the step most contractors skip. You walk away with a surface that handles NJ freeze-thaw cycles without heaving or cracking.
Outdoor Fireplaces & Fire Pits
A masonry fireplace or fire pit is one of the few outdoor upgrades that adds measurable resale value and extends how many months you actually use your yard. We build them in natural stone and brick to match your existing outdoor space. You walk away with a feature that’s structurally sound, weather-resistant, and built to outlast the house.
Seating Walls & Outdoor Kitchens
Built-in seating walls and outdoor kitchens require precise masonry work — wrong material choices or poor drainage prep means crumbling stone and standing water within a few seasons. We design and build outdoor living features that hold up through every NJ winter. You walk away with an outdoor space that functions the way you planned it and stays that way.
Steps & Stoops
Cracked or uneven steps are a safety hazard and a code issue. We rebuild and install stone, brick, and concrete steps that meet NJ code, drain properly, and don’t shift with the frost. You walk away with steps that are safe, solid, and finished to match the rest of your home’s exterior.
You’ve already done enough research. Get the honest estimate from the guy who’ll actually be standing on your property.

Why NJ Residents Choose ARD Waterproofing as Their Masonry Contractor in NJ
The single biggest problem in NJ masonry is accountability. Most contractors send a crew you’ve never met, managed by a company you can’t get on the phone. At ARD, owner David Roth is on your property for every single job — diagnosing the problem, overseeing the work, and standing behind the result with his name and his license on the line.
ARD is employee-owned. That’s not a marketing line — it means every technician on your property has a direct financial stake in the quality of the work and the company’s local reputation. They don’t work for a paycheck and move to the next job. They work like it’s their name on your driveway.
Our NJ HIC License #13VH12460700 is verifiable and current. We carry full liability insurance. In an industry where unlicensed crews are a real and documented problem across NJ, that matters.
Our 100% Lifetime Transferable Warranty covers every masonry job we complete. If something fails, we fix it. And when you sell your home, that warranty transfers to the new owner — a documented, marketable asset on your disclosure statement.
Ready to Stop Stressing About Finding a Masonry Contractor in NJ You Can Actually Trust?

He’ll schedule a property visit — often same day or next day — give you an honest, itemized estimate, and answer every question you have with no pressure and no obligation. That’s it.
100% Lifetime Transferable Warranty on every job. We’ll beat any reasonable estimate. NJ Licensed & Insured — License #13VH12460700. 5.0 Stars across 160+ verified Google reviews. No pressure. No obligation. 12% discount for military & first responders.

Common Questions About Hiring a Masonry Contractor in NJ
How much does a patio or retaining wall cost in NJ?
A standard patio in NJ runs $8,000–$25,000+ depending on size and material — bluestone and natural stone cost more than pavers or concrete. A retaining wall typically runs $3,200–$9,200. We give you a free, itemized estimate so you know exactly what you’re paying for before anything starts.
How long does a typical masonry project take?
Most residential patios and retaining walls are completed in 2–5 days once materials are staged. Larger outdoor kitchens or multi-element projects may run 1–2 weeks. We give you a realistic timeline before we start — and we stick to it.
Do I need a permit for a patio or retaining wall in NJ?
Retaining walls over 4 feet typically require a permit in NJ; most residential patios do not, but it depends on your municipality. We handle that determination for you during the estimate — you won’t have to figure it out on your own.
How do I know your crew is actually licensed and insured?
Our NJ HIC License number is #13VH12460700 — you can look it up directly on the NJ Division of Consumer Affairs website. We carry full liability insurance and provide documentation before any work begins.
What’s the difference between hiring ARD and a bigger masonry company?
With larger outfits, you meet a salesperson and a different crew shows up. With ARD, David Roth — the owner — personally evaluates your project and is on-site throughout the job. Every technician is an employee-owner with a direct stake in the outcome. That’s not typical in NJ, and it shows in the results.
What if I’m not happy with how the work looks?
Every job comes with a 100% Lifetime Transferable Warranty. If there’s a structural or workmanship issue after we leave, we come back and fix it — no runaround, no charge. That warranty also transfers to the next homeowner if you sell.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. We work with financing up to $200,000 with 0% APR options available. Ask about current terms during your estimate.
