"We have had the pleasure of working with Robert and Aplin Masonry Designs, Inc. on multiple projects, and the results have always exceeded our expectations. Robert and his team installed beautiful rockwork on the exterior of our home and patios, enhancing the overall look and quality of our property. Most recently, he covered our entire fireplace, and the transformation is absolutely stunning. His craftsmanship, attention to detail, and professionalism are truly top-notch. If you’re looking for high-end masonry work, I highly recommend Robert and Aplin Masonry Designs, Inc."

"I contacted Sam from Chiseled Stone Masonry to repair my privacy wall. It was an emergency because my dog and the neighbors dog broke out a few of the blocks and one dog was badly bitten. Sam contacted me immediately, asked for photos and scheduled a premise visit right away. The repair was scheduled for the following Saturday, but my neighbor refused to give his consent so I had to cancel. So, technically I haven't had the work done, he was amazing and I plan to use him once my neighbor comes to his senses. Therefore, I still gave him a 5 star rating because I have faith."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is essential to prime or seal a brick fireplace before painting. Brick is a porous and highly absorbent material, so without a primer, paint can seep into the surface, resulting in uneven coverage and allowing the natural brick color to show through. To avoid this, apply one or two coats of a masonry primer. The primer will seal the brick and provide a smooth, uniform layer for the paint to adhere to. Ensure the primer is completely dry before applying the topcoat of paint.

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.

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.

The best color to paint a brick fireplace comes down to personal taste. However, neutral colors—like white or gray—will open the space and create a bright modern look, making them popular options. However, choosing a bold color can turn your fireplace into a feature piece that will be the talk of all family gatherings.
