"Mike was super attentive via text and voice calls. His workers were professional, as was he and we could not be more delighted with the quality of work and finished products. He was a dream to work with addressing all of our concerns, giving us a timely response and being readily available if we had questions. I would highly recommend him if you have any masonry or structural work needed at your property.  His attention to detail was incredible. We are absolutely thrilled with the results of his hard work and are so thankful we found him on Angie's List.  What a prize!

"From start to finish our experience with Foundation Works was top notch. We did contract them to bolt the foundation on our 1921 Spanish Bungalow home and repair some minor foundation cracks in a 1950's addition. Prior to calling Foundation Works we had two other estimates for work, one was in line with the quote provided by Foundation Works and one was higher with a few additions to the work. So I would say their price was in parity with others. Myron did our initial inspection and spent a lot of time crawling around under our home and doing a very detailed inspection. He spent a long time sitting with us afterwards discussing what he discovered and what he recommended. He was very patient with our many questions. When we tried to add some additional work reinforcing what looked like some long term slippage on the peers under the house he carefully informed us of the history of how houses like ours were built and why we did not need to spend more money doing this repair as it wasn't slippage but rather just how it was built. Once we accepted the bid FW was able to start work quickly. They worked cleanly and while they don't clean up every day before going home they also don't leave a bad mess and the work was all in the backyard so a few piles of tools was not a big deal at all and was painless. The team that did our work was professional, friendly, and efficient. When we had questions they were always there to answer. When we had one (very small) issue related to the nails originally used in the 1920s to hold the corner floorboards in which had jumped up a bit due to the installation of blocks needed to support the bolting in a few places, they stopped work, immediately fixed the issue and adjusted how they worked so it didn't happen again. When the work was done you wouldn't even have known they were here. The yard and all entry points to the crawl space were spotless. The Burbank city inspection was a few days later, they handled it completely and we never needed to worry about a thing until they handed us approvals. The back office and payment process was professional, pleasant, and very low touch. I can't recommend this company more highly."

"Paramount Pavers just finished my second project with them. The first was 4 years ago, a driveway and a wall. I was so pleased with their work, that there was no hesitation calling them to come back and build me a new patio, and walkway. As before, Isaac and Rudy came through with exactly what I envisioned. Their staff were timely, pleasant, and did beautiful work. I would not hesitate to call on Paramount Pavers for any future projects!"

"We had increasing issues with humps in our floors which prevented doors from opening and closing properly.  Alpha was able to lower the high spots and raise the low spots from underneath. 
There was also one place at the exterior kitchen wall where the foundation had broken and twisted due to ground movement.  They stabilized and repaired the crack, and poured a partial new foundation in that location.
While our house was bolted to the foundation, they upgraded the attachment methods to meet current codes.
They did a good job and quickly.  They prepared the engineering drawings, pulled the permit with the City, and called for the inspections in a timely fashion.
We can now open and close multiple doors fully, including the front door, which we had not been able to do previously.

"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."

Customers say: Quick response

"I just want to say thank you to Jose and his crew in doing a fantastic job installing thin brick veneers in my living room. The end product was great and I could not be happier. Just watching him and the team do the work was really nice to see. Jose really pays attention to the details of the work, he laid out multiple options for me when it came to laying the brick, to the grout design as well as different sealing options. Also he treats your home as if it was his own as his work was very clean and organized. My job was rather unique as I had custom tv mounts and sound bar mounts, he was able to work with the setup nicely and I am grateful for his services. I highly recommend for anybody looking for good quality honest work. Thanks again Johnny ..."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, as long as the cut is clean and the brick remains structurally sound, you can reuse it. Reusing brick is especially common for landscaping, edging, and small masonry repairs. Just make sure to file down any sharp edges before handling or installing it.

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’t have traditional framing.

Stone can last anywhere from 15 to 100 years before it needs to be restored. You should clean your stone flooring or countertops regularly using cleaners designed for stone surfaces. Stay on top of vacuuming to prevent scratches from deteriorating stone faster, deep clean your stone surfaces using a pH-neutral cleaning solution at least once a year, and reseal the stone every one to five years, depending on foot traffic or usage.

Mortar, or masonry mortar, is mainly used in joints and as parging for stone, brick, or cement construction. Stucco is primarily a surface material used as wall coverings. For maintenance, masonry will need repointing or replacing as damage or land shifting occurs, whereas stucco will need patching or refinishing as it tends to crack over time along with other types of wear-and-tear.
