Build Your Future With Us
Apprenticeship
"Both stonemasonry and bricklaying contain a multitude of learning opportunities. At Lennox Masonry, you will get to experience them all. You will be exposed to the building process of everything from stone walls and chimneys to patios, walkways, and fireplaces. You will learn about geology, numerous types of stone and their ideal applications, how to formulate mortars based on the specific materials being utilized, and you will also receive an education on restoring historical brick and stone structures. But, one of the greatest challenges and rewards of working in a trade such as masonry, is learning to collaborate and problem-solve as a team, while working outdoors with and against the elements. You will learn how to train your eyes and mind to become critical instruments which will ultimately aid you in achieving the desired results both on and off the job site. For example, with consistent practice and creative focus, you will obtain the skill set to look at a pile of stones and piece them together in your mind before even picking up a trowel. You will be introduced to the optimal way of carrying and leveraging heavy materials, reducing the physical impact and long-term ramifications on your body when dealing with large weights. You will have the opportunity to confront building complications and challenge yourself to discover the optimal solution to those problems. You will also be immersing yourself in other trades such as carpentry and landscaping in an effort to fulfill the requirements of certain projects. And what better place to delve into a masonry career than in Victoria, BC where you’re surrounded by lush rainforests, mountain ranges, and incredible coastlines?
Learning about and working in an ancient trade such as masonry has been one of the greatest catalysts for growth that I have ever experienced. And my goal is to share in that growth with those who are willing to explore the countless possibilities that masonry has to offer."
