"ACE Foundation Specialists were friendly, knowledgeable, and thoroughly assessed the work needed. They walked me through several options, listened to my concerns, and we settled on a plan of action and price. They showed up and did the work on time and at a price quoted, with no hidden costs. They promised to skim the sod and put the grass plugs back so it would not look like I had a drainpipe trench dug through my front yard. I was skeptical, but once they finished, all the grass blends in unless you go out and walk that area. I recommend ACE Foundation Specialists and will use them again for all my foundation issues."

"Ken Nummy and his crew were extremely courteous and professional in doing my concrete driveway repair work. A large tree root below the slab had caused extensive damage to almost 400 Sq. Ft. of the driveway. Competitive pricing and a one-day completion (demolition, pour and finish) we were promised and delivered as stated. I would give them a five-star rating with no hesitation, I truly feel the work was first class in all respects and would highly recommend K.C. Nummy Concrete for all the concrete work on anyones project, hands down. There are still old-fashioned reputable contractors out there, kind of restores ones faith in humanity."

"Parrot was so easy with which to work. They saved us a ton of money from a larger, chain type company. They also were able to get out and complete the work 3 weeks faster than they had originally anticipated. I would highly recommend them to anyone."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can do German schmear on stone. You can account for the more textured and rough surface of stone by using a large paintbrush instead of a putty knife. A brush allows you to drag mortar across the stone to get it into all the cracks and crevices. However, a brush will cover more of the surface, so you may need a wet sponge to scrub excess mortar and expose more of your stone.

Cobblestone can be made from many different types of stones but the most common ones, by far, are granite, basalt, limestone, and sandstone.  If you are laying a brick paver patio or other such project, the medium is different. It’s rare, but cobblestone can also be made from marble, slate, jasper, and other types of rock. Technically, you can make cobblestone from almost any type of rock, but if it is weather-resistant and stands the test of time is another question entirely.

Yes, but used or reclaimed bricks can be more brittle, cracked, or uneven than new bricks, so they’re harder to cut cleanly by hand. For that reason, you should take extra care when scoring and striking, and expect a higher chance of breakage. If a brick feels especially fragile, score deeper before attempting to split it.

Yes, you can limewash surfaces other than brick. Plaster, stone, stucco, and concrete can all also be limewashed. Any porous surface that will absorb the wash is a good candidate for limewash, although it won’t help much with waterproofing. If you choose to limewash over paint, you’ll need to prep before applying it to avoid a powdery, chalky finish. Shiny surfaces like metal or glass can’t absorb limewash, so it’s not suited for these.

The premise for painting a brick building is fairly simple: Prime the bricks to seal the surface and apply the top coat to protect your brick home. However, it’s easy to miss a few important steps if you’re starting from a raw brick surface and don’t know the basics of how to paint brick. So be sure to reach out to a local professional painter if you have any reservations about correctly painting your brick house.
