"They replaced an old set of steps between my retaining wall in the backyard and did a great job. Took their time to do it right and made sure our design wishes were met. Very friendly and hard working"

"I hired Gregory to paint the exterior of my house, pour concrete, make a paver patio and install slate on front porch and back step. He did a good job on all. He is a nice person who works very hard. Shares his knowledge to help you make good decisions about your project. Highly recommend."

Customers say: True professional

"Taking on a backyard renovation can be overwhelming. I contacted a few companies before I spoke with Steve from Coastal Pavers. We scheduled a time to meet and he was very professional, punctual and even sent over a rendering of the layout. The price was fair and his crew and project manager Fernando finished ahead of schedule. There were a few adjustments I was able to make a long the way and luckily it did not effect the completion date. The pavers and turf look beautiful and I have peace of mind knowing the quality and craftsman will last for decades. I highly recommend Coastal Pavers and will be using them again."

Customers say: Super punctual

"Evan (Halls Concrete) is punctual, affable, detail-oriented, efficient, and as a Subject Matter Expert; Evan has extremely talented skills. Evan gave me a very reasonable job bid, to lay my gravel driveway, and pour my 25 foot long x 15 foot wide x 4 inches thick storage shed concrete foundation. Evan explained every phase, and detail, of the projects' time-lines. I asked many questions. Evan answered my questions completely, which assured me my gravel driveway, and concrete foundation pour projects were being trusted to the right contractor. Evan emphasized that "No job is too small". He treated my backyard projects with professional passion, ingenuity, precision, and skill. A great looking gravel driveway, and concrete foundation, are the result produced by Halls Concrete."

"We recently redid the landscaping in our newly purchased home. Kent Horner spent quite a bit of time w us suggesting creative design elements as part of the bidding process. We chose C and H from the several estimates we received and are happy we did. Kent’s crew was timely, worked very hard, reacted positively to our change requests and thoroughly cleaned up at the end of every day. Kent stopped by most days to make sure all was well! And it was! We love our yard and appreciate the work that Kent and his guys did! Highly recommended. Pete and Mickie"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Yes, staining a brick home can increase a home’s value, assuming your pro does a good job and you keep up with maintenance tasks. Staining brick is a much better way to increase a home’s value than painting brick, as the latter can cause chipping, warping, and bubbling. Brick stain, on the other hand, gets absorbed by the surface, so it can still breathe. 

Brick is the closest choice when seeking to capture the timeless look of stone with a more practical and budget-friendly option. When comparing stone versus brick siding, the price range of $200,000 to $400,000 for average brick home construction is dramatically lower compared to the cost of building a stone home. If you'd like to keep the stone aesthetic without the cost, stone veneer and manufactured stone are both less expensive than real stone.

Spalling brick is not uncommon, but it does indicate a serious issue. It can be caused by water damage, an intense freeze-thaw cycle, or something else. Painted bricks can be susceptible to spalling, as the paint doesn’t allow the porous material of the brick to breathe, which can trap moisture. Spalling should always be addressed immediately before more serious structural damage occurs.

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.

You can use adhesive strips to hang lights on brick—just make sure you get outdoor mounting tape and not just any old double-sided tape for your project.
