Is brick spalling normal?

• <div><p>Spalling brick is not uncommon, but it does indicate a serious issue. It can be caused by water damage, an intense freeze-thaw cycle, or something else. Painted bricks can be susceptible to spalling, as the paint doesn’t allow the porous material of the brick to breathe, which can trap moisture. Spalling should always be addressed immediately before more serious structural damage occurs.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between stucco and mortar?

• <div><p>Mortar, or masonry mortar, is mainly used in joints and as parging for stone, brick, or cement construction. Stucco is primarily a surface material used as wall coverings. For maintenance, masonry will need repointing or replacing as damage or land shifting occurs, whereas stucco will need patching or refinishing as it tends to crack over time along with other types of wear-and-tear.</p></div>

Q: How is natural stone formed?

• <div><p>Natural stone is formed in deep layers of the Earth through natural processes over thousands of years. The solid composition formations become massive rock beds, or quarries, from which miners extract them.</p></div>

Q: Can you build a pizza oven with normal bricks?

• <div><p>You can use normal bricks as cladding for a concrete or clay pizza oven or as a base underneath one. Fire bricks or solid clay bricks are necessary for an outdoor pizza oven&rsquo;s floor, and you can use clay bricks for the rest of the oven. </p></div>

Q: What are the disadvantages of stone houses?

• <div><p>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<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/questions-ask-masonry-contractor.htm"> questions to ask a masonry contractor</a> is if a similar aesthetic can be achieved with another material. </p></div>

These 2 young men came and did a check of my driveway. After they took time to inspect my situation, they explained what options could be done. But most important, they told me my best for now was to have landscapers come in and take over week control. Said my gravel was sound and the drive...
