"I can't recommend these guys enough. I had a 20-year-old stacked stone wall that needed flashing replaced. Krista went above and beyond to find matching stone. Henry said that his guys would start at 7am each morning. Can you imagine my surprise to find his crew at the job site at 6:50 ready to go? From the customer service that Krista provided to the work that the crew did all top notch. If all contractors conducted themselves in this manner the industry wouldn't have such a bad image."
"Martinez Construction and Masonry is fantastic to work with. They came out the same day for the estimate and answered all of our questions. When we decided to move forward with them, they came out the following week and completed the job within a day and a half. Additionally, they were respectful of our home and cleaned up the job site well. I highly recommend working with them and plan to return as a customer for future projects."
"Benn was great to work with. He was prompt, professional and communicated well. Our crawlspace is totally transformed and foundation sturdy. We would hire him again without hesitation."
"😃👍🏿 great the only guy that can touch my yard! He installed sod, installed about 30 yards of concrete, and maintain my yard as well as my mother's .. Great guy with blessed hands"
"I’m very pleased with the brick repair work that was done. The repairs were completed professionally, the brickwork blends in well with the existing wall, and the area was left clean when the job was finished. The workmanship and attention to detail were excellent, and I would definitely recommend their brick repair services to anyone needing quality masonry work."
"H20 Waterproofing does a fantastic job! I love all the people that I’ve dealt with. I own many rental properties and this is the only waterproofing company that I will ever use. They are professional and truly try to help the customer. Six weeks after they finish my crawlspace there was a major flood. They sent Amari back out and he helped me get everything cleaned up and they honored all the work that they did. This is a top-notch company!"
"I don't know that my project would have ever moved forward without Pricila's help from Citrine Landscape. I had been very slowly moving some old gravel from around a large tree to prepare for a new flower bed. After working on this myself for over a year, I finally broke down and called in reinforcements. Pricila arrived early Monday morning as we planned and by lunchtime the job was done. I'm beyond happy not only to have it done but also with how thorough and careful she was. We're already in the planning phases of getting my new flower bed installed. If you find yourself in need of any landscape work done, I wholeheartedly suggest you give Pricila a call.Â"
"Liquid Foundation Repairs installed a French Drain in my backyard a few months ago. I waited with my review to make sure that it woks. Had lots of rain since then and it works like a champ! Troy is very respectful, reliable and knowledgeable. Both him and his crew are punctual and hard working. The wok couldn’t be started right away due to lots of water and mud. Meantime, Troy called me several times so that we can agree on the proper time to start the job. They had a hard time because the entire work area was still a mess. They worked hard for several days and did an awesome job! I had a big tree trunk that fell over from the golf course next to my backyard and flattened my fence. They disposed of it and fixed the fence without charging a dime! They specialize in multiple jobs, so hire them with confidence! You won’t be disappointed!"
"James W. ,Ceasars, and Adam did a excellent job of repairs on our foundation. They were efficient and got the job done in one day. I highly recommend this company and these men for the job. Thank you again Byrom Family."
Brick houses can last at least 100 years with minimal maintenance. With regular care and attention, including mortar repointing, brick houses can last 500 years or more.
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.
Costs range from $3,500 to $15,000, depending on material, labor, and design complexity.
Yes, depending on the type of pavers you have, you may need a specific type of sealant. For example, concrete pavers will bond differently than clay pavers or faux stone pavers and will demand a different type of sealer. If you’re unsure of the material and what type of sealant you need, you can contact the company that laid your pavers down for you.
There are many things to look for when buying a brick house. Here are some of the key things you should pay close attention to.
Lintels: Look for cracks, holes, displacement, or corrosion
Mortar: Check to see if the mortar is old and crumbling, in need of repointing, or new. Also check to see if the mortar has a professional finish.
Walls: Check along each side of the house. If a wall is bowing outward, this indicates a severe issue such as foundation damage or that the walls are ready to fall.
Cracks: If there are stair step cracks in the brickwork, this indicates an unstable foundation.
