Residential Masonry & Restoration
Four generations of masonry, restoration, and waterproofing across New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York City, and South Florida via our Southern Division.
Residential work is the foundation of A. Pennacchi & Sons. Since 1947 we have repointed, rebuilt, and waterproofed private homes across every county in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, from 1920s Trenton Victorians to Princeton estate homes, Bucks County stone farmhouses, and Montclair brownstones. Every project is Paul-led and overseen by the Pennacchi family, every mortar we install is matched to the original assembly, and every estimate is a fixed-price written proposal.
What Residential Work Do You Take On?
Our residential volume runs heaviest in chimney rebuilds, brick and stone repointing, foundation waterproofing, stucco restoration, and historic masonry repair. We handle projects from single-step repairs to full-facade restoration on 200-year-old stone homes. The same craftsmen who work on Princeton University buildings work on private residences.

Do You Work With Historic Homeowners?
Regularly. Many of our residential projects are in Princeton, Trenton, Doylestown, Montclair, and similar historic districts. We coordinate with local landmark commissions, submit mortar samples for approval, and document the scope at a level that supports state and federal historic-rehabilitation tax credit filings.
