"Dean did a great job with our wall. The finished product went beyond what we imagined. Helped with ideas on how I should mount a fence on the retaining wall without compromising the integrity of the structure. On time, on budget, and a hard worker."

"We recently redid the landscaping in our newly purchased home. Kent Horner spent quite a bit of time w us suggesting creative design elements as part of the bidding process. We chose C and H from the several estimates we received and are happy we did. Kent’s crew was timely, worked very hard, reacted positively to our change requests and thoroughly cleaned up at the end of every day. Kent stopped by most days to make sure all was well! And it was! We love our yard and appreciate the work that Kent and his guys did! Highly recommended. Pete and Mickie"

"Noe is very experienced with putting in my driveway and walking area. He is beyond professional and very helpful. His workmanship is perfect. He is very kind and has reasonable prices. He was our first interview and we wanted him, but we wanted to make sure so interviewed many other people; it all came back to Noe. If you want an honest reliable professional man to do concrete.....Look no further just hire Noe."

"Kan Builders did my whole front yard from scratch! Retaining wall, river rocks, and much more. From design meeting to actual construction it was a pleasure working with Keme and Nir. They are awesome! In the middle of the project we decided to add a concrete slab for a new jacuzzi at the back yard and they also added a composite deck platform around it. I recommend those guys so much."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

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.

Chimney mortar typically lasts 20 to 30 years, depending on its quality, local weather conditions, and maintenance. Over time, exposure to moisture, freezing, and thawing cycles can cause mortar to deteriorate, leading to cracks and gaps. Regular inspections and timely repairs, such as repointing or tuckpointing, can extend the lifespan of chimney mortar by ensuring the structure's integrity.

In some cases, black stains on brick are caused by organic substances like algae and mold. However, it's more likely that the black spots you're noticing on your bricks come from carbon from vehicle exhaust or soot. Black stains can usually be removed by scrubbing the brick with a brush and masonry cleaner or power washing.

Masonry work tends to be more expensive because the materials can be costly, such as natural stone and brick. Masonry is also very labor intensive, typically making up 50% or more of the final project cost. In addition, quality masonry work requires years of training and experience, as with any skilled trade.

Mortar is a mixture of sand and cement that binds materials, such as bricks, stones, and concrete blocks, together. Think of it as the glue that fills in the gaps between bricks and stones, then seals them in place to prevent damage or deterioration. Mortar also helps spread the load across a wall or structure, keeping cracks and shifting at bay.
