Is a fireplace the same as a firepit or outdoor oven?

• <div><p>A fireplace is, by definition, an enclosed space where you burn wood or other fuel for the purpose of generating light and heat. A firepit burns wood and is much less expensive to build, but they aren’t technically a fireplace as it isn’t enclosed. An outdoor oven—commonly <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-build-outdoor-pizza-oven.htm">outdoor brick pizza ovens</a>—often uses wood as fuel, but its primary purpose is to cook food, and you’d rarely just burn wood inside them for warmth or aesthetic reasons. </p></div>

Q: Do brick houses have framing?

• <div><p>Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don&rsquo;t have traditional framing. </p></div>

Q: How much does brick or stone siding cost?

• <div><p>Costs range from $10 to $30 per square foot, depending on material type and labor.</p></div>

Q: Can brick breathe through limewash?

• <div><p>Yes, brick can breathe through limewash. Limewash is a breathable coating made from natural lime and water, allowing moisture to pass through while providing a protective layer. Unlike synthetic paints or sealants, which can trap moisture within the brick and lead to issues like mold, limewash allows the brick to maintain its natural breathability. This characteristic makes limewash an ideal choice for historic structures where preserving the integrity of the brick is essential.</p></div>

Q: What is considered masonry?

• <div><p>Masonry is an umbrella term that involves adhering individual building materials together using an adhesive, so many different things are considered masonry. These include constructing stone or brick walls or facades, installing stucco siding, installing backsplashes or tile floors, and even installing glass block windows, in some cases. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-are-most-common-masonry-materials.htm">Masonry materials</a> include natural stone, clay bricks, concrete bricks, glass blocks, and tiles.</p></div>

Stone Restoration Company never called and missed both appointments. I called them and they told me the 1st available appointment was 1 month away after missing the 1st two appointments. I'm stunned at the lack of professionalism. Also, the refund that I requested has still not been returned.

pressured washed our house and exterior stone walls to prepare for spring. They did a very good job and we have actually referred them since they did our work last year to a few friends of ours and happy to report they hired them and were happy with the service as well. Great company.

The hardscape around the pool was great. Basically, they cemented the existing flagstones instead of having patches of grass and dirt around the pool. If the work stopped there, I would give them an A. Then they removed the brown lawn on the side of the house, created a drip system for the...

This is the third project I've completed with BG--they also did a closet/bathroom conversion and a kitchen remodel on our house. For years, we had a poorly constructed (one-inch thick flagstone) walkway in our front yard. We decided to replace it with two-inch thick stone of a more attractive...

The quality of their products, I think is very good. Their service is excellent. The prices are good for the quality of the jewelry that they produce. In other words there are cheaper places but then the cheaper places have cheaper stones or the quality of the stones are not that good. So...
