Hollywood's masonry story starts in the hills. Hollywoodland was sold in the 1920s on granite — stone retaining walls, gates and stairways built by old-world masons that still hold Beachwood Canyon together a century later — and the pattern repeats across the Hollywood Hills: Whitley Heights' Mediterranean terraces, Outpost Estates' stone entries, Laurel Canyon's stacked hillside lots. Down the hill, the flats carry Spanish courtyards, brick fourplexes and garden walls from the same golden era.
This is craft country, and we work it accordingly: engineered retaining walls on the hillside streets, granite and stone repair that respects the originals, brick and courtyard work on the flats, and outdoor living — fire features, terraces, view decks' floors and walls — built where the city lights do the decorating.

Hollywood Hills lots are small, steep and stacked, which makes their walls structural in the fullest sense - holding streets above, pads below and neighbors on both sides. The Hills sit inside City of LA hillside rules, where retaining walls need permits at any height, and the walls we build run the full correct system: engineered footings, reinforced grouted block, drainage that daylights, finishes in stucco or stone that suit the street.
The historic stonework deserves its own respect. Hollywoodland’s granite walls and stair-streets and Whitley Heights’ terraces were built by masons who knew their trade, and when sections fail - roots, water, time - the repair should reuse the original stone and disappear into the old coursing. That reuse-first standard is exactly how we approach historic restoration, and some of our proudest work.
The flats and lower streets carry the other half of the work: Spanish revival courtyards with low walls and tile details, brick steps and planters on the older blocks, block walls replacing tired fences, and driveways squeezed onto hillside frontages that need every foot to work. Matching material and mortar to 1920s architecture is the difference between a repair that vanishes and one that bothers the street forever.
And then there is the reason people put up with the parking: the view. Terraces, seat walls and fire features on Hollywood view lots turn small outdoor spaces into the best room of the house. We have built exactly that - including a rooftop fire feature with glass rail where the skyline does the work - and small-lot outdoor rooms are a specialty we enjoy.

This was a great company to work with. Francisco communicates in detail verbally and in writing. He also does excellent work and has a great staff. He also left my place clean daily before they left. They show up on time and get the job done as projected.
Francisco and his crew are great! They repaired a brick wall for me when other companies said it had to be demolished and couldn't be repaired. They were prompt and friendly and did a great job. I would highly recommend them!
We are extremely pleased with the outstanding work completed by Camberos Masonry. The best word to describe their work is immaculate! … The crew worked tirelessly, paid attention to every detail, and left the job site clean and organized each day.
Francisco and his team are the best! They can do anything. They built us a fireplace, rebuilt a balcony and repaved our backyard. One of our best hires ever!
Camberos Masonry provided services recently involving repairing/restoring a very old natural stone wall as well as repairing mortar joints/cracks in natural stone pathways at a circa 1930 property. We found the crew to be hard working, diligent, reliable, creative problem solvers.
Francisco came on time to give me a very fair price to extend a brick patio, replace some flagstone and repair a low brick wall. His workers were efficient and did an excellent job … I highly recommend him.
Francisco came over quickly to scope out the work and plan it out with me. His crew came out and cut the concrete, leveled the ground, removed old tree roots and removed the cracked concrete slab in-front of my entrance, and poured the concrete in just 2 days! I'm very pleased with the final product.
Absolutely wonderful to work with. They were professional, cleaned-up after the work was done. The work was done on time and was gorgeous. We highly recommend them.
Francisco gave me a very competitive quote on a cinder block wall extension. His guys showed up on time and finished quickly. They had to deal with a tree trunk and did a great job. I'd hire again gladly.
Working with the Camberos Team was a great experience! Francisco was very honest and down to earth. … Their prices were very fair and the detailed work they did was superb!
Very experienced and hard-working crew. Work done on time and on budget! Did the pool renovation, tile work, landscape lights, etc.
Francisco came over and asked relevant questions before providing a detailed estimate. … Francisco and his crew were timely and responsive. He kept me updated as to their progress and as to the reason for any delay. The end result was better than expected.
Francisco came over the same day to measure and give us a quote for demolishing and rebuilding a brick fence and concrete patio. He was professional, friendly, thorough, and worked with us to provide several options within our budget and schedule.
We were so happy with his team that we hired him to build a stone and marble fireplace for our new home. They did such an amazing job! We had a short window of time to get it done and they went out of their way to make that happen.
The two pros he sent over were efficient and did a great job. I would recommend these guys and look forward to contacting them with future projects.
These guys did such a great job on our front yard! … They also put in a cement wall around the yard with pillars. They always showed up on time, were very friendly, and did a phenomenal job.
