"I am excited about the work completed by the AFS foundation crew from Mobile, Alabama! From start to finish, every step was handled with the highest professionalism and attention to detail. The team of David, Bobby, Jesus, and Logan took the time to explain the technical process in simple, clear terms, making sure I felt confident throughout the project. They also stuck to the promised timeline, finishing the installation on schedule without sacrificing quality. I also appreciate the crew’s effort to keep the worksite tidy. David, Bobby, Jesus, and Logan exceeded my expectations in every way. Their blend of technical skill, punctuality, and dedication to customer satisfaction makes them a top-tier crew. I would gladly recommend their services to anyone in need of reliable foundation repair."

"Great company! Fantastic crew! Good morals! Impressive work ethic! Very clean, efficient, and timely! Had some cracking in my bicks and I was concerned none the less. I called 4 different foundation repair companies and I was immediately sold on Apex! There not the cheapest but to my personal experience they are absolutely the best. They told everything I needed to expect on the front end. And much to my surprise they fixed my foundation and bricks in less than a day. Then after all is said and done they have lifetime warranty?s on everything they do! If your having issues with your foundation, look no farther than Apex Foundation Specialist!!!"

"Heart of Dixie Foundation & Construction did an outstanding job installing my French drain system and tying it into our gutter downspouts. From start to finish, everything was handled professionally and with attention to detail. They made sure the system was properly designed to divert water away from the house, and you can already see the difference it’s making. The crew was knowledgeable, hardworking, and kept everything clean throughout the process. They took the time to explain how the system works and made sure it was done right the first time. It’s clear they take pride in their work and stand behind what they do. If you’re dealing with drainage issues or water around your foundation, I highly recommend Heart of Dixie Foundation & Construction. Solid work, fair pricing, and results you can trust."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Yes, masonry is more expensive than concrete because the labor is much more involved. With masonry, your expert will build your project from the ground up, one piece at a time, ensuring they use the proper amount of mortar or grout during construction and keeping the project level or plumb. Pouring concrete can also be labor-intensive, but it’s a bit less involved. It requires building a mold, pouring the concrete, and letting it cure. The less intensive labor makes concrete a more affordable option in most cases.

Unless you’ve worked in the masonry industry before, it is in your best interest if you hire a pro for any masonry needs. Masonry-related jobs require a high skill level and can be extremely time-consuming. If anything goes wrong, a licensed and insured masonry contractor would be able to take care of the subsequent repairs, giving you additional peace of mind.

Unfortunately, there are many disadvantages to stone houses. They are slow to build and the materials are pricey, both of which balloon the total cost. Stone walls require a more robust foundation, which costs more to install. Running plumbing, electrical, and HVAC through a stone house is much more difficult too, so homeowners need to seriously consider if the aesthetic benefit is worth the cost of building with stone. One of the questions to ask a masonry contractor is if a similar aesthetic can be achieved with another material.

Real stone is exactly what it sounds like: It’s real stone sourced from the earth without additives. It is durable and unique, but it’s difficult to work with because of its weight, challenge in sourcing, and high cost. Stone veneer mimics the look of real stone but is actually engineered with a mixture of Portland cement, natural minerals, and a colorant. While it’s more affordable and easier to work with, it’s less durable and may appear manufactured to the trained eye.

According to the Earthquake Country Alliance—a public and private alliance in California that works to improve earthquake and tsunami readiness—reports that unreinforced masonry, such as stone, bricks, and hollow clay tiles, is more susceptible to earthquake damage. The mortar between bricks isn’t as stable as other building materials and methods.
