Stone walls are the work people hire Friction & Gravity for. The Plymouth stonework company says it serves New Hampshire's White Mountains, Lakes Region and Upper Valley, and it holds 5 stars from 15 Google ratings. A recent customer had a 93-year-old stone retaining wall rebuilt with all the original stones plus 4 more pallets' worth; Victoria excavated behind it to help with drainage and strength, and they finished on schedule. That customer said they left the work site as tidy as possible each day and did a thorough cleanup at the end. A recent customer had them take over an interior stone veneer fireplace a previous contractor could not finish, including fixing some of that contractor's mistakes. On a recent stone wall job, the customer said they provided a contract and showed up ahead of schedule. A recent customer described a detailed proposal from Victoria laying out the stonework. A 2026 customer said they repaired and rebuilt a rock wall that a construction project had dismantled. A 2026 review from a small design-build firm in northern NH said the company had done several projects with it, most recently a stone entry walkway and retaining wall for a project in Bethlehem, and kept to both the budget and the schedule. A 2025 customer had them build two stone walls, one fieldstone and one shaped stone. A 2024 customer said Victoria and Justin built a set of stairs to a recreation room above a detached garage, two entry walls along the driveway, and replaced a wooden step with two reclaimed granite steps. That 2024 customer also said Victoria, a Stone Trust certified instructor, guided them as they built their own retaining wall, and called the pricing very fair. A 2024 customer said Justin and Victoria rebuilt a stone retaining wall before their own deadline and at a reasonable cost. A 2023 customer said Victoria and Justin spent 2 months at a new barn, installing a field stone veneer on the foundation and building 3 bluestone patios and a field stone firepit. A 2023 customer said Victoria came to the site, talked over ideas and shared a series of options before the company built a stone patio in the backyard. A 2022 customer said Victoria designed the steps and the job was completed exactly as scheduled.
Victoria and her crew did a fantastic job of rebuilding our 93-year-old stone retaining wall. They used all the original stones and added 4 more pallets' worth, so our wall looks better than it ever did. Victoria actually engineered this wall to last by excavating behind it to help with drainage and strength. The original was constructed in 1933 in a way that was probably the best the homeowners could afford at the time, but it was really nothing more than a pile of Jenga blocks. Now, it's a work of art. Even the stone colorations are varied and beautiful. They finished on schedule, and I enjoyed listening to Victoria and Chris's laughter as they worked as much as I appreciated their expert craftsmanship. They love what they do, and it shows. Equally important to me is the fact that they left the work site as tidy as possible when they left each day, and did a thorough cleanup when the job was completed. Oh, and they worked full days, which in my experience with trades people, is rare. I seriously could not give Friction & Gravity a higher recommendation.
We had a great experience working with Victoria. She presented us with a detailed proposal outlining meticulous details of the stonework and made excellent suggestions and adjustments based on our vision and feedback. We would highly recommend Victoria and her team to make your masonry vision come alive. She is highly responsive, professional, and knocks it out of the park with the final product.
The Friction & Gravity team did an absolutely wonderful job on an interior stone veneer fireplace. I had a previous contractor start the job who was unable to finish it and they were willing to clean up and fix some of the other contractor's mistakes and finish out the project with exceptional results. They were easy to work with, prompt, and just nice folks. I'd highly recommend them for any masonry work!
We couldn’t be happier with the work Friction & Gravity did on our stone wall. They provided a contract, showed up ahead of schedule and did a great job!
So impressed with Friction and Gravity. Efficient, professional team that does great work. They did a repair/rebuild to a rock wall that had been dismantled by a construction project. Turned out beautiful and well integrated with the rest of the rock wall. See before and after pix. Such great work!
