"Just a great experience working with Superior Brick Pavers. Jennifer who runs the business office was great, very professional and helpful and kept on top of everything. I always got a return e-mail or a phone response to any of my questions in a timely manner. The business owner Kent is a craftsman. He has been doing this work for many years and it shows in the final end product. He and his team work incredibly hard and simply do great work. I have had numerous compliments from neighbors on the front drive pavers which quite frankly transformed the entrance to the house. I actually had compliments from my neighbors on how polite and friendly the workers were and how they cleaned up everyday, which when you live in close proximity to other houses is important. I highly recommend Superior Brick Pavers for any driveway or patio work."
"I had a great experience with Low Cost Concrete! Terrance came in with the lowest bid by far, which initially concerned me, but he did a great job on my driveway extension, which also included tearing out and replacing a portion of the existing driveway. He was courteous, professional, and flexible with my scheduling needs, and my wife was complimentary about his crew, which was a bonus. We have had work crews at times in the past who were loud or who used "colorful" language, but she said that they were cheerful and respectful, and not disruptive. I will definitely use Terrance again if I have future concrete projects."
"The team at Alpha Foundations did a fantastic job supporting our foundation. They had to drill 37 feet down and handled everything in a little over a day. The clean up was perfect as well. Top notch company with top notch staff. Thank you Dylan, Jake, Alberto and Charles!!"
"Excellent company and work crew. Rob was a great informative sales representative. Chris & Tom did an amazing job leveling and lifting out patio slabs. This really saved us over $20,000 from having to tear off our screen room and start all over from scratch! Took 4 hours to complete the process and was well worth the money. We highly recommend this company."
"They showed up on time, were pleasant to work with and understood what I wanted done. I had my front porch fixed and resealed. Looks great, the color of the bricks are more vibrant and I am very pleased with the outcome."
"To contact us did a wonderful job. They educated me and kept me informed every step away. The work was timely done very well and I was extremely satisfied with the service. In fact I am going to hire him to do the paving at a family members home excellent work"
"I had 15 impact windows and a sliding door replaced on 2/1/2019 by Suncoast Windows and Sidings. Must tell you, after 4 different quotes from major windows companies I decided to choose Suncoast because of John (Owner). Firstly he was on time on appointment day (Despite bad weather), he took all windows measurements himself and was not suggestive selling at all. Gave the quote and required info I asked and was on his way with a warm smile: Please let me know how I can gain your business? Our windows were shipped within 4 weeks (ahead of promised date), got a call from John and had an appointment set. Roger and his crewmen (Windows Installer) was on time, very importantly Roger himself and his team are highly professional, courteous and friendly. Roger stayed extra hours and called additional men to help get the installation done in one day. After installation, they made sure no screw/nails are left in my yard/driveway (clean project). Anyone looking for a similar project please give these guys a chance I am sure they will exceed your expectations as they did mine."
"Being in the building industry and experienced a few Mold remediation companies, the service, the execution and precision of work performed was exceeding my expectations! The before and after documentation was great along the advice. The contractor came out, inspected and documented the project, with punctuality and attention to detail executed on problem. The value was great and could have not been luckier o find such a professional company! Thank you Advanced Environmental Services Team! We look forward to working with you on our next problem! PS: Call and make an appointment before the problem gets worse! Asking questions costs nothing!"
"They showed up timely for a project overview and when doing the landscaping. They reviewed what we wanted and made suggestions for plants w we wanted. They were able to obtain the palms and plants that we wanted. They were very professional, hardworking and did an excellent job from planting through clean up. I highly recommend them and will definitely have them do any other projects that we will want done."
"The project began on time and was completed on the same day. They also did a really good job of cleaning up after themselves. Very professional, great results"
If you’re attempting to mix and pour your own mortar, expect to pay between $5 to $10 for an 80-pound bag of mix. The cost to repair mortar, however, can range from $300 to $500 for a 20-square-foot wall. The larger the area and the more extensive the repair, the higher the cost.
Brick can increase the value of your home depending on the type of masonry materials used. Homes generally have a higher resale value when they have brick siding, and brick is also easier to maintain (and lasts longer) than other types of siding, which can motivate buyers to make an offer.
Just keep in mind, however, that although brick can up the asking price when you sell your house, the cost to brick a house is also more expensive than other typical siding costs—so you’ll invest more in the project.
Handbuilt masonry fireplaces are likely what comes to mind when we think about curling up by the fire at the end of the day. But bricks in the firebox and chimney tend to be heavy, which is not ideal for homes with weak or damaged foundations.
Prefabricated fireboxes come with a full flue and chimney system, significantly reducing the price and installation time. However, if you need to replace the panels down the line, you are locked into the same model or something very similar.
Yes, you can use a mixture of 1 tablespoon of bleach and a gallon of warm water to clean stubborn stains from brick. Do not use bleach without diluting it in water. Undiluted bleach may cause discoloration. You can use either Oxygen bleach such as OxiClean or chlorine bleach. Always wear protective gloves and eye protection when handling bleach.
The difference between river rock and landscaping rocks is size, smoothness, and use. River rocks are smooth and flat, as if polished by water, and come in diameters between 1 and 8 inches. Landscape rock can vary in size from small pea gravel installations to car-sized boulders. However, landscaping and river rocks are interchangeable in many situations. River rock is best for pathways, walkways, garden bed mulch, water features, and planting accents, while small landscape rocks can serve as a walkway base, gravel playground areas, and filler between pavers.
