"Groundworks is absolutely fantastic! The crew that came to our house was by far the best I've ever worked with. They were friendly, quick, and did wonderful work! Our foundation was already moved 2-3 inches back by the time they left! They even helped level out some extra dirt we had sitting in the yard with their equipment. I would 100% use Groundworks again and have even referred them to multiple people already!"

"For concrete flat work, Black Widow Concrete LLC is superb. I had the good fortune of working with the business owner, Ricardo Ramirez. Mr. Ramirez is a true professional who knows his business and stands with the highest professional and ethical standards. He was quick to understand what I thought I wanted for a driveway and what was actually needed for my situation. His crew was professional and focused on what he determined was to be done, and they completed everything in a single workday. I had been prepared for a more time consuming process, but they did everything I anticipated and that I wanted. And, the finished product is better than what I hoped it could be."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

You can use a regular drill to make pilot holes for gutter brackets in the wooden fascia board around the top of your house, but it’s not the best tool for brick. Instead, you’ll need a heavy-duty power tool like a hammer drill with a carbide tip bit.

While painting can certainly change the look of a chimney, you should think twice about giving your brick chimney the old landlord special.

Painting brick is porous, meaning it’s full of tiny holes that can soak up moisture. Those holes also allow it to dry, though. So, when you paint it, you trap any moisture inside, providing an opportunity for mold, mildew, and water damage.

Paint also shows wear faster than naked brick. This means that once you paint a brick surface, you’ll have to keep painting it to maintain a clean look. A paint job is also harder to undo on brick because of its porous nature. Once you paint it, it’s hard to go back without some serious power washing—another added cost.

Drilling into brick or mortar requires the use of a masonry drill bit. Masonry drill bits appear similar to standard drill bits except for the leading tip of the bit. The tip has a bulky carbide arrow-shaped end slightly larger than the rest of the bit shaft. Standard or high-speed drill bits designed for making holes in wood or metal don’t have the ruggedness or design shape you need to drill into brick. They may not go through the brick at all, and if they do, they’re more likely to overheat, crack, or dull before you finish drilling.

You should use cement for a chimney crown. The purpose of the chimney crown is to protect the mortar below from water damage and the effects of weather. For this reason, chimney crowns should only be made using cement. When repairing a crown, use caulks and sealants designed for cement repair rather than mortar repair.

Yes, brick can breathe through limewash. Limewash is a breathable coating made from natural lime and water, allowing moisture to pass through while providing a protective layer. Unlike synthetic paints or sealants, which can trap moisture within the brick and lead to issues like mold, limewash allows the brick to maintain its natural breathability. This characteristic makes limewash an ideal choice for historic structures where preserving the integrity of the brick is essential.
