Working in South Orange
South Orange is another Watchung ridge town with a large stock of Victorian housing and a village center that has kept its character. Sloped lots and old stonework define most of the work we do here.
Original stone steps and retaining walls are everywhere in South Orange, and many are well past the point where a cosmetic repair helps. A wall that is leaning or a set of steps that has separated from the house has lost the argument underneath, and rebuilding it properly is the honest recommendation.

Why is there so much old stonework in South Orange?
The town has a large stock of Victorian housing on sloped lots, so original stone steps and retaining walls are everywhere, and many are now well past a cosmetic fix.
