"The work crew that arrived came 3 hours later than anticipated. When it was explained that the order had been inadvertently cancelled and they had to reconstruct the order before coming was understandable. The 3 man crew went directly to work and stayed on task with only a short break for each of them during the project. There was a misunderstanding of how the fence was to be installed and as soon as this was pointed out a corrective action was taken and the project continued. The POA requires the smooth side of the fence to face the public space. the crew started to face it into the yard. I was very impressed with all 3 members of the work crew and they were professional in their performance of their duties. The language they used with me as well as with each other was very much appreciated as no foul language was heard throughout the day. It took the crew about 6 hours to complete the fence hence I will recommend your service anytime I have an opportunity. I had requested to us a Credit Card to pay for the work and was informed it cost 3% to use the service. When I paid the bill the additional fee was not included therefore I will send a check for approximately $35.00 to cover this additional charge. Thanks for the very good job. Bill Lamb"

"Very professional, friendly, and prompt service.  They took time to explain what had caused the damages to the roof and what needed to be done to prevent the damages from re-occurring.  Also, they explained the benefits of a full roof replacement vs just repairing the damaged area.

Masonry questions, answered by experts

A fireplace is, by definition, an enclosed space where you burn wood or other fuel for the purpose of generating light and heat. A firepit burns wood and is much less expensive to build, but they aren’t technically a fireplace as it isn’t enclosed. An outdoor oven—commonly outdoor brick pizza ovens—often uses wood as fuel, but its primary purpose is to cook food, and you’d rarely just burn wood inside them for warmth or aesthetic reasons.

The best color to paint a brick fireplace comes down to personal taste. However, neutral colors—like white or gray—will open the space and create a bright modern look, making them popular options. However, choosing a bold color can turn your fireplace into a feature piece that will be the talk of all family gatherings. 

You will repoint over a fraction of the old mortar, but you should scrape away 1/2 to 1 inch of mortar from the joints before repointing. Otherwise, the repointing is only masking the weakened mortar instead of actually replacing it, which could put your chimney at risk of bigger, more expensive damages later on.

The white stains you see on your bricks are likely efflorescence, which is salt and lime buildup. To remove efflorescence stains, simply brush them away with a stiff brush. For larger, more stubborn stains, scrub the stains with a water-detergent solution.

You should use cement for a chimney crown. The purpose of the chimney crown is to protect the mortar below from water damage and the effects of weather. For this reason, chimney crowns should only be made using cement. When repairing a crown, use caulks and sealants designed for cement repair rather than mortar repair.
