"Dave and his team were awesome. Professional, prepared and provided excellent actionable advice. They also completed a few extra tasks to finish to improve the existing masonry. Probably the most important is that they clean up after themselves. I will have them back soon."

Customers say: Quick response

"Alonso did a great job. He was professional and respectful, showing up when he said he would and finishing up in a timely manner. The work was excellent and thorough. In fact he fixed some areas that I didn't expect. I.e., he goes above and beyond in servicing. Highly recommended and will hire him again for other projects as needed."

"My extensive project entailed new sod, irrigation, plantings and rock in the front yard. In the back yard, demo of a small patio, and pouring of a huge decorative concrete surface, plus new sod and irrigation. I plan to hire Alex next year to revamp the flower beds in the back as that piece had to wait. Alex and his team were absolutely outstanding. Attention to detail, such as the drainage system, and overall expertise resulted in a complete transformation. Pricing was competitive. Alex was very pleasant to work with. He listens and offers professional guidance. I highly recommend Hermanos Flores Gardening."

"I would highly recommend Forever-Green Cali. They are very professional, courteous, and knowledgeable about their profession. After an initial consultation with the owner, John, who provided recommendations based on my vision for my front yard. He made great suggestions that I would never have thought of, which made my yard beautiful and efficient with rocks that I love."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

It is possible, albeit a lot slower, to break up a rock using water. You would do this by freezing and thawing the water. You could create some initial holes or cracks in the rock, then pour water into the cracks or holes and allow them to freeze (so it's best to do this in winter or in colder climates). Since water expands when it freezes, this puts pressure on the inside of the rock and causes it to crack. You could continue to pour more water in and let it freeze to continue to break up the rock.

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.

Costs range from $3,500 to $15,000, depending on material, labor, and design complexity.

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

A traditional rectangular brick that is used for siding, brick walks, and pathways is 8 inches long by 4 inches wide. If you are shopping for fire bricks, the standard dimension is typically 9 inches long by 4.5 inches wide.
