Brickstone Landscape Construction & Masonry

Brickstone (also listed as Brickstone Masonry, Inc.) is a family-owned, full-service landscape construction and masonry company based at 174 Chief Justice Cushing Hwy in Hingham, Massachusetts, run by mason Ben Bascon with his wife Ashley Bascon handling design and communication. The company describes itself as 13 years in business with about 10 employees, states it offers free estimates and emergency services, and won a Best of Boston 2021 award for stone, paver and concrete work. The written record is unusually deep and consistent: 19 reviews from 2016 to 2025 across Angi, HomeAdvisor, Thumbtack and Houzz, every one of them five stars. Reviewers repeatedly describe retaining walls, paver patios, driveways and outdoor fireplaces built with careful attention to detail — one client hired the company across four separate projects over time, and a 2018 review describes the rebuild of nearly 80 feet of a century-old granite retaining wall on a tight, difficult site, calling the finished work flawless. Multiple accounts, including a 2023 Thumbtack review and an earlier Houzz account of a Brookline project, mention a town building inspector independently praising the masonry work. Reviewers also consistently credit Ashley's computer-generated design visualizations for making the planning process clear before work begins. The bulk of the detailed written reviews run from 2016 through 2020, with the most recent dated accounts from January 2025, so anyone booking a larger project may want to confirm current crew size and lead times directly. Brickstone is a strong fit for homeowners in the Hingham/South Shore area and across Greater Boston looking for detail-oriented masonry and hardscape work, backed by an unusually consistent, if not high-volume, five-star history.
