"I asked Trejo's Lanscaping to trim my bushes and to weed in the front and back, and he gave me a reasonable quote for the work. I also asked two other companies to give me quotes for the work. I added an extra project to replace the weed fabric and mulch on the parking strip around the front of my property with new weed fabric and medium-sized river rock. I hired Teejo's Lanscaping to do both jobs. Arturo and his two assistants arrived on time to work on the project. They got as far as removing the weed fabric and mulch and trimming the bushes along the side fence when it started to rain heavily. We agreed to stop work until the weather was better. I had to wait a week before he was able to come back. After laying down the new weed fabric, they carefully poured the rock around the established plants. Arturo trimmed the front plants and cleaned up the leaf litter under the plants. He and Pablo moved to the back to weed and to trim the bushes. I was happy with the appearance of the front and back yards and the cost . I will definitely hire him again in the future."

"Due to an upcoming renovation project, I needed to have a small concrete patio installed quickly. Jorge promptly responded and helped me decide the dimension and layout. He explained each step of the process and followed through. He and his brother were on time, hardworking, friendly, and did a great job on my patio. I highly recommend their services."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is normal to see some minor hairline cracks in brick or mortar over time, often due to natural foundation settling. However, not all cracks are harmless. You should be concerned and contact a masonry professional for an inspection if you notice cracks that are getting wider or longer, or if new ones keep appearing. Other serious warning signs that can indicate significant structural or foundation damage include large vertical cracks (especially those that widen as they go up), stair-step cracks, L-shaped cracks, and deep horizontal cracks. Factors like temperature changes, moisture, and structural loading can also cause cracks to form or worsen.

To stain brick, you should use a product specifically formulated for brick, concrete, or other masonry surfaces. These stains are designed to penetrate the porous surface of the brick and bond with it. This is different from paint, which sits on the surface and is prone to peeling, flaking, and trapping moisture that can cause damage. Water-based brick stains are often recommended because they are easy to apply, even for DIYers, and they allow the brick to breathe. Avoid using regular paint on brick, as it will not adhere properly and can lead to future maintenance problems.

You will repoint over a fraction of the old mortar, but you should scrape away 1/2 to 1 inch of mortar from the joints before repointing. Otherwise, the repointing is only masking the weakened mortar instead of actually replacing it, which could put your chimney at risk of bigger, more expensive damages later on.

It is possible, albeit a lot slower, to break up a rock using water. You would do this by freezing and thawing the water. You could create some initial holes or cracks in the rock, then pour water into the cracks or holes and allow them to freeze (so it's best to do this in winter or in colder climates). Since water expands when it freezes, this puts pressure on the inside of the rock and causes it to crack. You could continue to pour more water in and let it freeze to continue to break up the rock.

Landscape boulders, especially porous stones like sandstone or granite, can crack or break over time. Cracks occur when water seeps into the surface of the stone and freezes. The risk is highest when it rains during the day and temperatures freeze overnight since the moisture has time to penetrate deeper into the rock before expanding.
