Customers say: True professional

"Devon and his team did a beautiful job with the new concrete work done on three sides of our house, the biggest section done to accommodate a screened room. This work replaced old brick pavers and a small tiled patio that had become very uneven and a trip hazard. We are very pleased with the work that was done on time and with precision. Devon was a pleasure to work with and addressed any questions, concerns or changes we made."

"Axton Builders LLC did a professional job of repairing a masonry wall in our association. I think the overall job might have been a bit more than he estimated, but he stuck with his original quote. So, a professional job with little hassle. That's the best recommendation I can give any contractor."

"Very professional. Arrived as promised and completed the landscaping as promised for agreed price. I hired him to update the landscaping across the front and around the side of my house which involved pulling some plants, cleaning some plants of unwanted growth, cleaning the plant beds and installing new plants. Finally, putting down new mulch. I could not be more pleased."

"Had the entire landscaped yard front & back (no grass) refreshed with new plants and new trees installed. Peter was on the job and worked throughtout, and oversaw the crews work. Peter fixed the irrigation system and also added extra drains. They also layed shell and rock throughout the entire yard. Very happy with the results and would highly recommend Peter and his crew known as the Green Hornet."

"It went well beyond my expectations. We went with pavers rather than concrete. Joe gave us a good estimate. He stuck to the budget and the timeline. The work Joe did for us is a work of art. Beautiful. Pavers cost more than concrete but worth every penny."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Brick spalling—which refers to the crumbly, flaky, or pitted appearance that can develop over time—is caused by a few different conditions. These include:

  • Climates with constant freeze-thaw cycles

  • Use of non-breathable sealants

  • High-pressure water cleaning

  • Improper installation

While you can’t do anything about the weather, you can preserve your bricks by cleaning them with soapy water and a good old-fashioned scrubbing. Pressure washers may be satisfying to use, but they can eventually wear away the surface of your bricks. If you don’t have advanced-level DIY skills in masonry, you can hire a reputable masonry contractor in your area for your project.

The exact cost of bricks depends on the type and size of the bricks you use for your project. Generally, standard clay bricks cost between $350 and $850 for a thousand bricks, or an average of $550. Brick veneer costs around the same for materials but is easier to install than solid bricks, so you’ll save on labor by choosing this option.

Yes, brick should be clean before staining to ensure the best results. Dirt, dust, mold, mildew, and other substances on the brick can prevent the stain from properly adhering to it. Thoroughly cleaning the brick allows the stain to penetrate and bond to the surface more effectively. Cleaning typically involves using a pressure washer or a stiff brush with mild detergent. However, stubborn residue may require a specialized masonry cleaner.

Fireclay is a type of clay but it is a type of clay that, because of its chemical composition, can be fired at a much higher temperature than other clays. This results in a denser and more heat-resistant final material. Because of the high percentage of a mineral called kaolin, fireclay sinks are smoother and more durable than other clay types.

Yes, it is usually possible to repair a damaged brick mailbox. A professional brick mason or masonry contractor can perform the repairs. They can assess the damage, provide an estimate, and help you determine if the repair is worthwhile based on the mailbox's value and the extent of the damage. The repair process may involve sourcing replacement bricks and mortar. Damaged bricks can be cut out and replaced, or the mortar joints can be cut out and retucked. It's important to note that the new mortar may differ in color from the original. If the mailbox insert itself is damaged, it can typically be cut out and replaced as well. If your brick mailbox has been completely destroyed, you should check with your local building code enforcement office before rebuilding, as some areas do not allow brick mailboxes due to the potential hazard they pose to drivers.
