"Paver job when ok, no supervisor..mistakes, damage to existing landscape, delays. Pool - diamond bright and coping was a disaster. Sub was terrible, again lack of supervision, damaged brand new Pavers intalled, clogged brand new pipes and would owe up to the mistake. If you gonna hire this company get everything in writing. Ask to be listed as additional insured on their proof of insurance - general liability. If they damage your property you can make a claim with their insurance. Make sure proper supervision is on site at all times to insure quality and limit mistake...good luck!"

"Much of the original brick coping around a large in ground swimming pool had to be repaired because it had come loose over many years. New bricks were not available so the old bricks had to be removed and cleaned of old grout and mortar. The pool ledge also had to be cleaned and leveled before the bricks could be reset with new mortar and grout. This was a major and difficult repair. The owner Brendan did most of the work himself and did it well. I was impressed with the quality of the work and also with his integrity and honesty. It was a pleasure working with him and his original estimate for this complex job was right on. I strongly recommend this company for other projects."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

You should generally drill into the mortar joints when installing shutters on brick. Mortar is softer, which makes drilling easier and puts less strain on your tools. It also lowers the risk of cracking a brick—something that’s a lot harder to fix. Mortar holds fasteners well enough for standard shutters, and if you ever need to patch the holes later, it’s a much simpler job than dealing with damaged brick. Just keep in mind that if your mortar joints are too thin or the hardware calls for brick anchoring, you'll need to check the manufacturer’s recommendations and adjust accordingly.

When painting brick, each application method has pros and cons. Spraying is much faster but may not penetrate the porous surface of the bricks. Rolling is effective for getting paint into the bricks but doesn't work as well on the mortar. Brushing is very time-consuming and also won't penetrate beyond the surface. For the best results, a combination of spraying and rolling is often recommended. If you use a roller, choose a thick option (at least a half-inch) and ensure the paint gets into all the crevices for even coverage.

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.

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.

You can purchase from many brick manufacturers and distributors via their websites, where you can also get estimates based on the quantity you need. You’ll find bricks at your local home improvement stores as well, though they won’t have as much of a variety to choose from. As for antique bricks, secondary selling websites like eBay can be a great resource.
