"Our front yard needed some structure. Gadi helped design and build two entry pillars in stone masonry, plus a new walkway to the door. The old path was narrow and cracked, and the new one is wide and fits the property better. The pillars gave us a real entrance feel. They also ran low-voltage lights inside the pillars so they light-up at night. It's not flashy, just clean and sharp. The stone matches the front steps, and everything feels like it belongs now. Gadi and his crew kept things simple and stuck to our request. Would work with them again."

"I had used Conrad's company in the past and knew he had good, experienced employees and that the work would be done properly.  This job from the beginning was going to be sizable and was to involve just the back yard and side yard areas with the patio flagstone work to be the biggest part of the job.  When I saw how good Gonzalo, one of the excellent masons Conrad used, I decided to enlarge the flagstone work to include the backyard sidewalk area done in the same style as the patio.  Conrad was able to give me a good price and we added that job to the project.  As the work progressed, I was able to see the quality of the work being done and I decided to included the front yard in the overall renovation and I did not regret my decision.  And once again Conrad gave me good, competitive pricing and it made my decision the expand the job easier.  I had many opportunities to see his employees at work and Phillip, working the irrigation and various plumbing jobs, was excellent and fantastic work was done by the brothers Gilbert and Able who worked long and hard, in the heat and on Saturdays to ensure I was pleased with the outcome of all the projects I had going at one time.  I changed plants and trees and locations, added flagstone for steps, adjusted irrigation lines and generally made several major changes to my original idea and never once did Conrad balk at giving me what I wanted. Conrad and his employees were always pleasant to be around, always answered my questions and showed me what they were doing or intended to do, all the time.  If I requested a special activiity or option I could be certain it would be done.  The finished landscaping is terrific and I'm very happy I had it done and happier even that Conrad was given the job.  I especially remember one email we exchanged near job's end when I made reference to a tree which to be changed out.  I don't know what I expected, but Conrad told me he would work to make me happy "until the end".  He did all of that and more.  Thank you , Conrad and Gilbert and Able and Phillip and Gonzalo and all the rest of the crew  who worked so hard giving me the yard I have wanted for decades.

Masonry questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, you can technically use a pressure washer to remove paint from brick, but it comes with a significant risk of damaging the brick surface. A high-power pressure washer can be fast but may leave the brick looking unsightly. The recommended method is to first apply a chemical paint stripper, following the product's instructions, and then use a stiff metal bristle brush or a pressure washer on a low-pressure setting to remove the loosened paint. Due to the risk of damage, it is often best to hire a professional who can use low-stress methods.

When painting brick, each application method has distinct advantages and disadvantages. Spraying is significantly faster but may not penetrate deeply beyond the surface layer. Rolling is effective for working paint into the brick's texture but can be less effective on mortar joints. If you opt for a roller, choose a thick nap of at least a half-inch to ensure paint gets into all the crevices for even coverage. Using a brush is generally not recommended as it is very time-consuming and provides poor surface penetration. Ultimately, a combination of spraying followed by back-rolling is often the best strategy for a durable and even finish.

Real stone is exactly what it sounds like: It’s real stone sourced from the earth without additives. It is durable and unique, but it’s difficult to work with because of its weight, challenge in sourcing, and high cost. Stone veneer mimics the look of real stone but is actually engineered with a mixture of Portland cement, natural minerals, and a colorant. While it’s more affordable and easier to work with, it’s less durable and may appear manufactured to the trained eye.

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.
