All About Johnson Playfair Inc.

Johnson Playfair offers masonry contracting specializing in custom home construction, restoration and landscaping. We bring a focused attention to detail and high level of accuracy to our projects. Quality is our top priority; we take time to ensure our clients are completely satisfied with every detail. The company was founded in 2012 with a goal of providing service to their clients focused on quality of product, skill of craftsmanship and a consistently professional approach. By sticking to these guiding principles, we have built a company of like-minded people and we are ready to get to work on your project.

Our Team

We employ a nearly 1:1 ratio of red-seal certified masons and registered apprentices. This ensures that every project is managed by a masonry expert who has received a minimum of 4 years of formal training both on site and in the classroom and has passed a national knowledge-based exam. We take apprenticeships seriously and work closely with our apprentices to develop the knowledge and trade skills that will set them apart from the rest. The owners of the company, Brendan and Matthew are personally involved in every project, ensuring that the quality and standards upon which the company was founded are upheld and continued. We are a close-knit group of people who are passionate about this trade.
