"We needed a path from the patio to the workshop on an uphill and rocky slope and a retaining wall in front between an existing walk- way and a steep slope. Luis and his crew gave us a beautiful curved walkway with wide, easily navigated steps. The front retaining wall blends seamlessly into the existing wall and walk way. The craftsmanship is unmistakable and the cost extremely reasonable. They were all professional, thoughtful and communicated work schedules and updates - all very much appreciated. We highly recommend this company and will certainly use them for our next project."

"There are not enough adjectives in the English language to describe the extraordinary expertise, professionalism, and perfection of the work done by Paramount Masonry, in addition to the incredible courtesy each of their professional staff displayed toward me. After contacting Paramount, I received a call from Lloyd Lewis who showed up right away at my home, made excellent recommendations, and gave me a fair and reasonable estimate to remove and re-install old brick under my picture window, and add brick in another area of my home to coordinate the look. His family of expert professionals started work within that very week, arrived early every morning, and worked non-stop all day long. The varying talents of each was amazing. They kept me notified of any issues, discovered and corrected unknown problem areas, and checked with me often to insure I was pleased with the progress. These wonderful men even went as far as to stop traffic on my very busy street to allow me to back down my long driveway and safely cross to the other side of the street to park my car when all their vehicles made by backing onto the roadway difficult. Their consideration and respect of my feelings was evident at all times. When their work was completed today, I was beyond thrilled and overwhelmed at the beauty and perfection of their work. Lloyd Lewis and his brotherhood of professionals should be in a Masonry Hall of Fame for excellence."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Drilling into brick doesn’t have to be a dangerous project if you prep and approach it with the right tools and techniques, but it does come with risks if it’s not done correctly. It can lead to significant issues, such as damaging the brick or affecting the wall’s structural integrity. Applying too much force can crack or chip the brick, while incorrect placement might compromise its load-bearing strength. 

You may not need a hammer drill if you’re planning on drilling one or two very small diameter holes in brick. For holes with a diameter of 3/16-inch or less, a regular drill with a masonry bit can do the job. However, the bit will heat up quickly, and the process will take significantly longer than with a hammer drill. Prepare to cool your drill bit down in a bucket of water more often.

Stone houses used to be much more practical, but with the advent of stronger and cheaper materials like concrete, they aren’t seen as much anymore. There are some parts of the world where it makes sense to build with stone, and they are usually next to a stone quarry. Stone is, however, very weather-resistant, which is why many homes near the sea and on mountains are still built with local stone.

Yes, brick should be clean before staining to ensure the best results. Dirt, dust, mold, mildew, and other substances on the brick can prevent the stain from properly adhering to it. Thoroughly cleaning the brick allows the stain to penetrate and bond to the surface more effectively. Cleaning typically involves using a pressure washer or a stiff brush with mild detergent. However, stubborn residue may require a specialized masonry cleaner.

For most brick cleaning jobs, including fireplace bricks, use a masonry sponge and a gentle cleaner. A simple solution of equal parts water and vinegar, or a few drops of dish soap in a bowl of water, can effectively remove grime. For tougher stains, you can use a dedicated masonry or fireplace cleaner. It is crucial to wet the bricks thoroughly with water before applying any cleaning solution to prevent the brick from absorbing it, and to rinse the surface completely afterward. Harsher cleaners containing bleach or ammonia should only be used as a last resort, and they should never be mixed together.
