"Our house has some water damage issue in the first floor and basement. The company sent Landon to our house. He is very kind, smart and knowledgeable person. He inspected the house and honestly explained that he did not see any house foundation issues. The water leaking issues were caused by pipe broken. He said "If you house has any foundation issues, please contact us". We will definitely use them for any foundation related repair jobs in the future."

"From start to finish LJIA masonry was first rate. They came and discussed what needed to be done, provided a detailed quote and kept us up to date on starting times and what they needed from us to have the materials needed. The crew arrived on time (a little early actually) started promptly, worked efficiently and could not have been more courteous and respectful of our property. The attention to detail was exemplary. When finished, the crew went above and beyond in the clean up. Highly recommended."

"Every time my husband or myself called BR he answered the phone. If his guys were coming later, he let us know. If they weren't coming at all, he would let us know. If we were concerned about something, he said he would fix it. Nothing rattled him. He kept us informed during the entire process. I can not praise this company and the people that work for them enough. It was one of the most enjoyable construction experiences I have ever had. I hope I will have another project and be able to use them again. Pure Joy!"

"We had a fantastic experience with Concrete Solutions of Atlanta. Our project was unique because we wanted our driveway to double as a pickleball court, so we had very specific requirements for layout, joints, smoothness, and finish quality. Their entire team listened carefully and implemented everything exactly as requested. They paid incredible attention to detail and never rushed the process — even delaying the pour when heavy rain was forecast to ensure the job was done right. Communication was excellent, craftsmanship was outstanding, and it was obvious they truly cared about quality. They were not the cheapest quote we received, but they were absolutely worth it. I highly recommend Concrete Solutions of Atlanta for anyone wanting high-quality concrete work, especially custom projects."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

No, using a power sander on brick is not recommended because the force of the sander can destroy brick's fragile outer layer. Even using sandpaper on brick is discouraged because of the damage its abrasiveness can cause.

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 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.

No, you shouldn’t lay bricks directly on dirt. While it might seem like a shortcut, it leads to a patio that shifts, sinks, and becomes a maintenance headache. Dirt expands, contracts, and erodes—none of which mix well with long-term stability. To build something that lasts, excavate the topsoil, compact a layer of crushed gravel, and add a coarse sand-setting bed. This layered base gives your bricks proper support, allows drainage, and helps block weeds from creeping through. Cutting corners here just means you’ll spend more time—and money—repairing your brick patio later.

You will repoint over a fraction of the old mortar, but you should scrape away 1/2 to 1 inch of mortar from the joints before repointing. Otherwise, the repointing is only masking the weakened mortar instead of actually replacing it, which could put your chimney at risk of bigger, more expensive damages later on.
