"Don and his industrious crew did a beautiful and expert job laying two paver-stone pathways on a twisting incline around our home. Don made a very reasonable bid on the project, and also came out to review the layout and made some great suggestions. His master paver-stone mason Mike was very methodical and diligent in doing a most professional job! They also did a thorough job of cleaning up the area when finished. Don Hall Masonry is tops, and I strongly recommend them!"

"I used Oakden to renew my landscaping. I didn?t have a huge budget and needed a lot of work. They did a lot to get my yard ?healthy,? fixing the grading, drainage, erosion, stumps, dead trees, and the list goes on? I feel caught up on about a decade of deferred maintenance. Then they got it really tidy and fresh with fantastic rock work and mulch, and a great flagstone patio. It was very little effort on my part. They 100% delivered on what I was hoping for with not a lot of direction. It was super easy to get scheduled. Everyone was professional and courteous. They worked quickly and communicated well. Can not recommend enough. They raised the value of my entire block. Thank you!!"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

In most cases, painting your brick house is a fine idea that can open up new aesthetic possibilities. However, the paint can slightly shorten the life span of brick, especially if moisture gets trapped underneath the paint layer. Once you paint, you’ll have to keep up with maintenance to avoid flaking and blisters.

On average, a quality exterior brick stain can last between 10 and 20 years, and sometimes even longer. While it will look its best for a minimum of three to five years, its total lifespan depends on several factors. These include the quality and type of stain used, the condition of the brick, and the thoroughness of the surface preparation, such as proper cleaning. Following the manufacturer's application instructions and applying a sealant as a final step is also crucial. The stain's longevity can be affected by your location, climate, and the brick's exposure to harsh weather, high traffic, and other elements. Over time, the stain may begin to fade or look dingy due to weathering, erosion, dirt, and debris. Compared to paint, brick stain generally has a longer lifespan.

Removing paint from brick can have both aesthetic and practical value. Some people prefer the timeless look of bare brick, making it worthwhile to remove old paint layers. Brick also lasts longer when unpainted, as paint traps moisture, causing the brick to deteriorate more quickly. If your brick walls are already in bad shape, stripping the paint off might do more harm than good.

Natural stone is formed in deep layers of the Earth through natural processes over thousands of years. The solid composition formations become massive rock beds, or quarries, from which miners extract them.

The best tool for drilling into brick or mortar is a rotary hammer drill which is a large hammer drill with low rotation speed and high torque. Regular drills with a hammer function are also excellent tools for drilling into brick when the diameter of the hole is 1/2 inch or less. It might be possible to drill into brick with a standard drill if you’re only drilling a very small hole, but note that masonry work will put a lot of wear on a standard drill, and the tool may not be strong enough to get through brick.
