Experience

Owner/Operator Nate Lyons-Fisher began his career in Haliburton County building with Straw Bale, Lime Plaster and Timber Frame methods of construction. He proceeded to Toronto to complete a 3-year Apprenticeship in Brick and Stone Masonry with a focus on Heritage Restoration. Since then he has worked extensively throughout Ontario in Niagara Region, Peterborough County, Kawartha Lakes Region, Muskoka and even completed a field study restoring a 15th Century Stone Village in Northern Italy. Nate has experience in Commercial Masonry Construction and has spent the past 2 years building Custom Homes in Toronto.

Drawing from this wide range of specialized and regional experience, NLF masonry incorporates heritage building principles within the context of modern masonry design to produce work that is both stylistically authentic and materially contemporary.

Philosophy

By combining a knowledge of traditional masonry techniques with years of experience in the fast-paced modern masonry industry, NLF Masonry is distinctly qualified to provide cost-competitive and high performing building solutions with an aesthetic that is true to the familiar forms of masonry design.

Approach

NLF Masonry offers a 3-Step Approach. 

1. Planning

Whether we are brought into a project at the stage of initial design, the layout of the first wall or decades into the life-cycle of the building, we include in our pricing a variety of pre-construction services including cost-analysis, material sourcing, design consutlation and project documentation.

2. Execution

From our first mobilization on site through the completion of our work and cleanup of our equipment and refuse, we employ considered and precise practices both in our craft work and our interaction with clients and their property.

3. Continued Service

Track us on social media and watch our business grow. See past projects and note what we are planning for the future. Masonry work is by nature durable and we aim to extend that quality to our relationships with clients and collaborators.
