Masonry is the most expensive way to build as working the stone involves a great deal of work and therefore money. However, a masonry wall is stronger. Therefore, this type of walls were used in buildings where the main aim is to achieve ostentation or durability.
=== Mortar, murteak ===
A crucial aspect when building a wall was the material used to hold the stones together. More recently, concrete has been used for that purpose, but in the past, prior to that component coming into use.
Timber was used for many parts of the house, particularly in the northernmost zone of the territory studied, where trees were more available. The wood was used to support the tiles, the flooring of the upper floors, the main and often the only component of the stairs, a fundamental part of doors and windows, and also of balconies in some cases. It was also the main material used to make traditional furniture and fixtures.
=== Bench base, altzarria ===
Normally, the posts are supported by the wall that encloses the first floor, meaning that they do not stand on the ground, thus preventing the timber from rotting from the damp.
It is the same case with the posts of the interior timber structure that starts from the ground floor. There were not supported on the earth or on rock, but rather on a piece of stone that is, in generally, truncated pyramid-shaped that insulated the base of the posts from the dampness of the floor and, to a great extent, as this floor was used as stabling, from the manure. That piece of stone is known as the bench base.
=== Structure. Hageak, pilareak ===
As regards the structure, the most common practice was for large posts to rise up from the ground floor to support the thick beams running across the width of the building and which supported other smaller posts on which the plank floors and partitions were placed. Other vertical posts would rise up from there which supported a second floor, as applicable, and afterwards the structure of the roof, which was timber has already been seen.
In the same way as with the other construction materials, the oak traditionally usually came from the surrounding area.
