"Ariyana Borge and Aiden Ferris came to our house measured the shower in both bathrooms and we told them what we wanted done to the bathrooms, they showed us the products that we can choose from and then asked us what designs we wanted we chose from those and then they ran some numbers, gave us a quote. We liked how inviting they were and how friendly they were an answered all of our questions with no hesitation as to figure out how to answer that question they know their stuff and I highly recommend them to come out and give you a quote of your own."

"Very professional. Completed the job in two weeks. The deliverables were as promised. They were very independent, requiring only minimal involvement from the client. However, communication with the owner could be enhanced a bit."

"We recently had Mega Power Electric Inc install a solar system and panels. The President and provided excellent communication all the way through the process. He even met with us after installation to explain the almost incomprehensible PG&E bill. Although not the least expensive bid, his was competitive and I felt he was as interested in educating me about solar and the various types of panels and inverter systems as he was in selling a system. He demonstrated how the array of panels would meet our energy needs and as opposed to some of the other companies, wasn't selling us more than we needed. We are very satisfied with our solar system and I highly recommended Mega Power Electric Inc."

"Joshua is great! I purchased the toilets at Home Depot and arranged for Joshua to pick them up. Well HD Lancaster location only had two of the HE toilets that I wanted, so the 3rd toilet was picked up in the HD Palmdale store. Joshua did all this with pleasure. He was on time, work was completed superbly and cleanup was on point. I will always call on Joshua for my Handyman needs..."

"Concrete Unlimited installed a septic tank and septic bed, trenched and installed a long water line, removed and hauled stumps, made log decks, cleared slash, graded and prepped our cabin site, artfully placed rocks and boulders that were uncovered in the process. Our remote lot had many constraints and he navigated through them beautifully -- and on time. My husband has seen heavy landmoving equipment operated by many people during his career and interacted with many companies on projects. Following the Carr and Dixie fires, where we lost our home and our family cabin, we again saw how various contractors approached and completed projects throughout our neighborhoods. Jesse Gorbet, Concrete Unlimited, and his crew are among the very best we've seen. Deft, nuanced, insightful, graceful, and considerate are not adjectives that normally come to mind with these types of projects but they do here. He was refreshingly excellent in communication, keeping us up to date, suggesting ways to save money and also setting up the project to make it easier for building in the future. Jesse was an absolute pleasure to work with, an unexpected gift. To have one contractor work with us to handle all these tasks themselves, and so professionally, was stress free. We highly recommend him."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

The size of your pizza oven will determine the number of bricks necessary to build it. So the bigger your pizza oven, the more fire bricks you’ll need to purchase. Keep in mind that fire bricks cost about $3 each.

Most of the time, you don’t need to seal brickwork and can save that money for another area of home improvement. But if your brick is cracking or you live in an area with a lot of excess moisture (either in terms of rain or freezes), sealing can extend the lifetime of your home. But, make sure you use a breathable sealant, like siloxane, to allow the moisture to evaporate on its own.

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’s floor, and you can use clay bricks for the rest of the oven.

Yes, an outdoor fireplace should use fire bricks. Fire bricks are specially designed to withstand high levels of heat and thus won’t crack as easily as regular bricks when exposed to the intense heat inside a fireplace.

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 questions to ask a masonry contractor is if a similar aesthetic can be achieved with another material.
