"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

Yes! Hot glue is an excellent—and temporary—way to spread holiday cheer with Christmas lights without damaging your brick exterior.

Yes, concrete is significantly stronger than masonry, especially if the concrete pour includes reinforcements, like steel rebar. Concrete is a uniform material that can withstand compression, sheer force, and tensile force as long as it’s reinforced. Masonry involves the use of mortar or grout to connect individual building materials, like brick, stone, or tile. Mortar and grout are also reasonably strong and resist compression well, but they don’t come close to the strength of poured concrete.

Brick can increase the value of your home depending on the type of masonry materials used. Homes generally have a higher resale value when they have brick siding, and brick is also easier to maintain (and lasts longer) than other types of siding, which can motivate buyers to make an offer.

Just keep in mind, however, that although brick can up the asking price when you sell your house, the cost to brick a house is also more expensive than other typical siding costs—so you’ll invest more in the project.

Drilling into brick or mortar requires the use of a masonry drill bit. Masonry drill bits appear similar to standard drill bits except for the leading tip of the bit. The tip has a bulky carbide arrow-shaped end slightly larger than the rest of the bit shaft. Standard or high-speed drill bits designed for making holes in wood or metal don’t have the ruggedness or design shape you need to drill into brick. They may not go through the brick at all, and if they do, they’re more likely to overheat, crack, or dull before you finish drilling.

Removing paint from brick can have both aesthetic and practical value. Some people prefer the timeless look of bare brick, making it worthwhile to remove old paint layers. Brick also lasts longer when unpainted, as paint traps moisture, causing the brick to deteriorate more quickly. If your brick walls are already in bad shape, stripping the paint off might do more harm than good.
