"Appreciated their services so much - we confidently used them twice! We utilized Alpha Foundations in 2023 for the repair of a segment of our house that had a faltering foundation. We are utilizing them again in 2024 for the installation of a encapsulation system under our crawlspace. They were friendly, honest, and professional. Thank you to Johnny and Jacob for the great inspections and to Keith, Migue, Matt, Antione, and Jacob for the excellent execution. We are happy to to have a stable foundation once again!"

"It’s a pleasure to write this review of C & L Landscaping. Our property was once an eyesore with no curb appeal, no usable living space, and an uprooted driveway. Now, it’s a delight to come home to. A beautiful paver driveway, sidewalk, a new lawn and edging around thoughtful landscaping highlight the front of our house. The once overgrown backyard now boasts an incredible paver patio looking out on a serene natural area of trees and grasses. The new irrigation system will ensure the beauty of the landscape for years to come. Also reflected in this five-star review is the experience we had working with C & L. To say they were accommodating is an understatement. Each and every individual we interacted with was personable, knowledgeable, sensitive to our needs and wishes, prompt and most importantly, communicative. We couldn’t be more pleased and recommend their services to anyone contemplating landscape and/or hardscape projects."

"Tucker & his crew did an awesome job installing my fence, tearing down a couple of sheds & hauling a bunch of junk out of my yard to make it usable again. Definitely recommend TLW for all your land clearing needs. Thank you again!"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

A well-made brick wall can last up to 100 years if maintained properly, which includes regularly repairing the mortar every 30 to 50 years. If your brick wall is under 30 years old and is already showing signs of repair, it may be due to poor brickwork and installation. Extreme weather conditions can also accelerate a brick wall’s life span (especially the exterior of a house).

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.

The size of your pizza oven will determine the number of bricks necessary to build it. So the bigger your pizza oven, the more fire bricks you’ll need to purchase. Keep in mind that fire bricks cost about $3 each.

Yes, you can enlarge windows in a brick house. Your masonry contractor will need to cut away exterior brick to make space for the larger window, and you may also need to consult a structural engineer to make sure the window is properly supported inside the frame of the house.

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.
