Customers say: Terrific value

"Excellent work. Great pricing and attention to detail. This is the second time I hired Victor and his company. They work fast, efficiently, and definitely know what they are doing. They make suggestions and improvements to the overall project without me having to ask. They clean up at the end of each work day and pay attention to detail. Another great job taken care of, thanks again! I will definitely recommend them to anyone needing brick or masonry work."

"Erinn was my initial contact and he gave a very through and fair estimate. We had structural work done to support floor joists and large beams under the garage that needed replacing. Ernesto and his team, Julio, Salvatore and Gilder worked tirelessly to complete the work and were respectful, punctual, informative and good humoured throughout the entire process. I would not hesitate to use them again or recommend them to others. A really great company!!"

"This is a family owned business that really does quality work and guarantees your satisfaction. They do not even expect any payment until the work is done. Actually they went above and beyond our expectations. Emilio gave us great advice from the beginning and the work was done in a timely manner with utmost care and precision (it looked more like carpentry work than typical wood fence building).The results were fantastic and the workers were diligent and careful, thoughtfully checked with us along the way to assure accuracy, and cleaned up completely after work was completed. Actually we have never experienced such a pleasant group of workers who were so gifted in so many ways. One even came back later to address an electrical problem that had come up while they were here. They also were sensitive to the fact that we needed to work with our recently widowed neighbor since our fence butted against her garage (which had significant damage to the stucco). Before completing the fence, they were also able to repair the stucco on her garage to prevent further damage and give her peace of mind. Communication was great with Emilio which also gave us peace of mind. I had seen their 5 star rating on Home Advisor before hiring them and, if I could give them more than 5 stars, I would. I would hire them again in a heartbeat. We are thankful to find that pride in workmanship is still available."

"**SIMPLY OUTSTANDING** Robert Garcia Concrete is the only company, in the past 3 yrs that we hire. During this time, Robert and his crew have completed 3 jobs for us. Everything from our first conversation about the upcoming project is fully estimated in detail and documented in both email and text by Robert. His attention to customer service is beyond compare. The cost is very fair. The level of perfection that the entire crew puts forth is really enjoyable to witness. Our most recent project was a concrete patio replacing a preexisting. wooden deck that, over the years was in disrepair. Robert and his crew demo'd the structure in short order, leaving a clean area. The next morning they installed rebar and forms. The next day they were here bright and early w/ concrete pump, truck, and in no time had the new patio slab looking fabulous. Robert himself, always returns the following day to remove forms, and check to ensure all is well. An impressive part of this project was the replacement of a small narrow set of precarious stairs with risers that were too high and too shallow. They completely transformed the area by removing the old, and made all new safe and aesthetically symmetrical entry to our family room from the backyard patio. These guys are top shelf! Friendly professionals. And...they play great music while they work, which makes watching the evolution to the area that much more enjoyable."

"Javier installed a new fence and custom gate. The work was started on time and completed on time at the quoted price. His crew was neat, clean and easy to work with. We have had him do a couple of other small jobs for us, and have been very satisfied with all of his work."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Mortar and thinset both serve the same purpose—tile adhesion—but have different compositions and use-cases. Thinset is heatproof and presents a wide range of possibilities due to the added polymers. Mortar is typically used for bonding stones and brick. Thinset is rarely used outside, while mortar is rarely used inside.

Some older brick material is extremely hard, making it tough to create a hole. Rather than using a typical wood drill bit, always use a masonry drill bit when drilling into brick. For extremely hard brick, using a power drill with a hammer function may give you better results. The drill bit will heat up as it goes into the extremely hard brick, so you may need to stop after a few minutes and allow the bit to cool before starting to drill again.

Yes, it is normal to see some minor hairline cracks in brick or mortar over time, often due to natural foundation settling. However, not all cracks are harmless. You should be concerned and contact a masonry professional for an inspection if you notice cracks that are getting wider or longer, or if new ones keep appearing. Other serious warning signs that can indicate significant structural or foundation damage include large vertical cracks (especially those that widen as they go up), stair-step cracks, L-shaped cracks, and deep horizontal cracks. Factors like temperature changes, moisture, and structural loading can also cause cracks to form or worsen.

Initially, brick staining is not cheaper than painting. However, while it has a higher up-front cost, it may be more cost-effective in the long run. Brick stain can last for 20 years or longer, compared to paint, which usually starts to peel away in three to five years.

Handbuilt masonry fireplaces are likely what comes to mind when we think about curling up by the fire at the end of the day. But bricks in the firebox and chimney tend to be heavy, which is not ideal for homes with weak or damaged foundations.

Prefabricated fireboxes come with a full flue and chimney system, significantly reducing the price and installation time. However, if you need to replace the panels down the line, you are locked into the same model or something very similar.
