"Kacen and his team pulled up our existing lawn, his design turned it into beautiful low maintenance, water wise front yard that exceeded our expectations. Kacen and his team arrived for work early everyday, worked in the rain, made sure our yard was clean at the end of each day. The entire transformation took 4 days. We received several proposals, C & H proposal was very reasonable and gave us the most for the price that we were able to have our driveway and side walks acid stained. Kacen returned on day 5 to make sure we were 100% satisfied. I have been in contact with Kacen since the project was completed, he is quick to reply and be available to assist. We are extremely satisfied."

"Luis and his crew did a fabulous job. Removed and hauled away a 70 year old Ivy fence surrounding the front yard, along with old brick surrounding the interior of the yard. Removed old grass from a long strip between the sidewalk and street. Instead of fixing the brick planters under the two front windows, we ended up having to replace both. The house was built in 1955 and the bricks were just falling apart. The front strip between the sidewalk and street was replaced with 5 spaced out succulents and river rocks with gopher wire and barrier underneath with a drip system added. The old ivy fence was replaced with hedges. We had a very large tree removed from the front yard in 2019. The area had sunken in over time with old tree roots exposed leaving the yard very uneven. There was also a sunken area on one side of the yard. Both areas were filled in and leveled off. The grass area already had a sprinkler system from 2012 that Luis will be updating. A new drip system was put in for the hedges. The two planters were rebuilt with large bricks and river rocks were added around the existing roses and large pots. There was a dirt area over by the chimney that they also leveled, added barrier and river rocks. Looks great. Luis will be checking back to access the filled in grass areas to see how they’re settling and then will amend the grass and fertilize and plant a Crepe Myrtle tree centered in the yard. Once the hedges are established, Luis will untie the tape, remove the stakes, fluff out and trim. Everything already looks fabulous and the neighbors have been texting how great everything looks. A neighbor down the street asked for an estimate for their property. The crew was very hard working and would clean as they went. At the end of each workday they made sure everything was spotless. Probably more details than needed, but this was a lot of work and they did a fabulous job. Would hire them again and highly recommend Luis and his crew 😊"

"I needed a cement contractor to pour and finish the concrete on a zig-zag design wheelchair ramp. I had already done the excavation and built the adjacent block walls. Mike's team were doing a much bigger job on a house down the street, so I asked if they could fit in my small 2-day job. They gave me a fair estimate, showed up on the days agreed, understood what I wanted done, and did an excellent job with no delays or problems. I recommend them."

"From the initial point of contact for the final walk-through everything was spot on. Sean, Holly, and the entire Daulinghaus team was professional and friendly. I bid out five total contractors inland they by far were the most fair and reasonable yet qualified. They had a plan and they resolve my issue"

"They installed a turf dog run.? It is dog approved and looks great.? To provide a finished look they applied a stone facing to an unfinished portion of a solid barrier (fence) and did a great job matching color.? The smaller size of this non traditional job were no doubt responsible for scheduling in terms of getting job finished as it took about 10 days from start to finish but overall we could not be happier."

"Our kitchen remodel with McCormick Home Builders went beyond our expectations. Leoni and her team took the time to understand exactly what we wanted. The open layout design changed the way we use the space, and it’s been perfect for family gatherings. They were prompt, courteous, and genuinely invested in making sure we were happy. Really impressed!"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Stone houses used to be much more practical, but with the advent of stronger and cheaper materials like concrete, they aren’t seen as much anymore. There are some parts of the world where it makes sense to build with stone, and they are usually next to a stone quarry. Stone is, however, very weather-resistant, which is why many homes near the sea and on mountains are still built with local stone.

Whether you’re installing brick siding over a traditionally-framed home or you’re using genuine brick construction to build, the biggest downside of a brick house is the higher cost you’ll pay for the materials and labor. Real brick construction also means your home build will take longer, as it’s more time-consuming to construct brick walls than it is to frame out your home.

Masonry uses units like bricks, cement blocks, and stone with mortar between them. Mortar is generally made of sand and a type of cement. Examples of masonry include the brick or stone on a house, chimney, or freestanding wall. Concrete is a mixture of water, sand, stone aggregate, and other materials, and is poured into forms or moldings. Types of concrete applications include driveways, garage and basement floors, and poured concrete walls in basements and crawl spaces.

Unfortunately, there are many disadvantages to stone houses. They are slow to build and the materials are pricey, both of which balloon the total cost. Stone walls require a more robust foundation, which costs more to install. Running plumbing, electrical, and HVAC through a stone house is much more difficult too, so homeowners need to seriously consider if the aesthetic benefit is worth the cost of building with stone. One of the questions to ask a masonry contractor is if a similar aesthetic can be achieved with another material.

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. Masonry materials include natural stone, clay bricks, concrete bricks, glass blocks, and tiles.
