"Russ and his team did a great job reconstructing our 3-tiered rock wall garden. Not only did they stay within budget but they finished the project earlier than expected! Alex and his team worked hard and did an amazing job. We are beyond pleased and would definitely recommend their services."

"Jim, Steve, Clint and the rest of their crew were great. They would quickly respond to changes or fixes required to get the job done right. Finished product is everything I expected. After working with some flaky contractors in the past, Crestone was a refreshing group to do business with.

Folks, do not use any other foundation company. These guys are the best hands down! Courteous, professional, hardworking, you name it! Don't waste your money or piece of mind with anyone else. Get it done right the first time. I actually found them through Angie's List.

My family and I purchased a nice house recently but found out a week after moving in that the foundation had some serious issues and my first and second floors were sinking. I called AFT, talked with Scott, one of the owners, and he was out to my house within 30 minutes to a**** my situation (I was impressed from the get-go). Scott and his brother Bill were awesome! very professional and courteous as were the rest of the guys. Scott took his time and assessed my problem and gave me an estimate on the spot for repairs. Compared to my online research they were by far the best price around. Although a costly repair by nature, he gave me a great price for my repairs because he cared and understood my predicament. Most businesses seem to just care about money but not these guys. I appreciated that tremendously since we just moved here from Louisiana and spent a lot of our money in the move. I am also unemployed and money was kind of scarce to say the least.

They fixed my foundation problem without a hitch and they were on-time every day and worked so hard I got tired just watching them. They explained everything each step of the way and the guys on the crew were very trustworthy and have great personalities. Special shout-out to James, Kenyon and Gerald because you guys were awesome! the hardest working guys I've ever seen and very courteous. I couldn't be more pleased with them and the service I received... they know their stuff! You don't have to worry about getting screwed over by this company because they're not like that. I would highly recommend them if you have foundation issues.

"Our original project included prepping new lake property by clearing trees, excavating, leveling and building a pad for our RV. They also were able to accommodate our additional request to build a path down to the lake. We were very happy with the results. We for sure would use them again!"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can technically use a pressure washer to remove paint from brick, but it comes with a significant risk of damaging the brick surface. A high-power pressure washer can be fast but may leave the brick looking unsightly. The recommended method is to first apply a chemical paint stripper, following the product's instructions, and then use a stiff metal bristle brush or a pressure washer on a low-pressure setting to remove the loosened paint. Due to the risk of damage, it is often best to hire a professional who can use low-stress methods.

The best tool for drilling into brick or mortar is a rotary hammer drill which is a large hammer drill with low rotation speed and high torque. Regular drills with a hammer function are also excellent tools for drilling into brick when the diameter of the hole is 1/2 inch or less. It might be possible to drill into brick with a standard drill if you’re only drilling a very small hole, but note that masonry work will put a lot of wear on a standard drill, and the tool may not be strong enough to get through brick.

Costs depend on material type, labor, chimney requirements, and structural reinforcements.

Yes, brick walls often add value to a home. For starters, many people love the look of brick walls, so they can enhance your home's aesthetic appeal and add warmth to your property, especially when it aligns with the rest of your neighborhood's look. They also provide privacy and security, which can further increase the resale value of your home.

Not all cracks in brick indicate foundation problems. For instance, small hairline cracks can occur as a new construction settles. However, larger cracks are often a sign of a more severe issue. Indicators of a potential foundation problem include long horizontal cracks, "stair-step" cracks, vertical cracks that appear indoors, or any crack that widens at the top. Other signs of structural damage to look for are uneven floors and doors or windows that stick. These issues could be caused by problems with the soil beneath the home or an overgrown tree.
