What Our Customers Say
Real 5-star reviews from neighbors across PA, MD & VA.
“The ultimate professionals. Such skill! They restored and repointed our ~12 long, 6' high collapsed stone wall perfectly — in less than 5 days.”
“WOW… this company and crew did such an amazing job on my historic stone barn. From start to finish, communication was great! Everyone else that visited the site stated it was beyond saving. Linwood stayed true to his word and saved this beauty! I know he will be back at my place for more work!”
“Poor Boys Enterprises did a fantastic job on our historic home! Their repointing work is top notch — the best I've seen around! They were extremely professional, considerate, worked in a very timely manner, and when leaving the job went over and above to clean up. It's rare to find people who work hard and exceed your expectations!”
“Lynwood and his team did an amazing job. Old school, true to his word, handshake deal. The best part — when things went differently than planned, we sat down, had a conversation about how to proceed, and moved on. Other contractors would have slapped ya with a bill and poor quality — not these guys, they are artists. The clean-up was superb. Refreshing to see good people like this are still out there!”
“Lynwood and his team from Poor Boys Enterprises did an outstanding job of restoring the stone walls of an old burned-down barn. He was present on the job, took extreme care in dismantling the old walls, selecting the stone for the replacement walls, and ensuring they were properly fitted and sealed together. Couldn't be happier.”
“There are contractors and then there are craftsmen. Lynwood and his team did an excellent job on the repointing and rebuilding of our stone basement foundation. It looks brand new and not 150 years old — and was done to last another 150 years.”
“Great quality workmanship. It's great to see a team of young talented stone artisans who aren't afraid of doing the hard work to produce an outstanding end product!”
“Poor Boys did a fabulous job of rebuilding a stone wall that had collapsed on my property. It's beautiful! They also refaced a chimney where the stone was separating from the chimney and water was getting into the house. They did a fabulous job on the chimney.”
“Lynwood and his crew are top-notch stone masons. Glad for the chance to work alongside them on projects.”
“These guys are artists with stone. Very professional and know what they are doing. Highly recommend!”

Your Local Stone Masonry Repointing & Restoration Specialists
Stone masonry is an ancient art that has been practiced for centuries, shaping the very fabric of our architectural heritage. Regrettably, this time-honored tradition seems to be on the decline. As the older generation of skilled masons retire, there remains an ever-dwindling number of individuals possessing the necessary knowledge and expertise to repair and restore the magnificent structures that have been handed down to us by our ancestors.
At Poor Boys', we are captivated by the intricate puzzle that is a stone wall. Each stone, carefully shaped and placed, bears witness to the unwavering dedication and artistry of the stone masons who came before us. It is only when attempting to recreate their work that we can truly appreciate the depth of their skill and craftsmanship. Although we employ modern mortar and tools, the fundamental techniques involved in constructing a structurally sound wall from stones have remained largely unchanged throughout the ages.
Our fervent passion for restoring and preserving historical stone structures is driven by a desire to ensure that future generations can continue to enjoy these architectural masterpieces. We are dedicated to performing our craft with the utmost quality and meticulous attention to detail, honoring the legacy of the master masons who have gone before us. It would be our absolute pleasure to assist you in safeguarding and maintaining your unique piece of history for the enjoyment of generations to come.
