"We hired Engineered Retaining Walls to construct a series of Retaining Walls to establish a strong and permanent foundation for a 27 foot by 7 foot combination hot tub spa, swimming / plunge pool and patio entertaining area. The best available area was on a hillside in the front of our mountain home. Art Miller and his team of professionals met with us several times to determine what our desire and plan for the project included. ERWalls staked out a construction area, performed a detailed LIDAR elevation survey of the topography and staked out a plan. Before beginning ERWalls.com helped us determine the scope of the project to ensure it was well understood. Once construction began, an ERWalls supervisor discussed every step and worked up agreeable solutions to each problem encountered. ERWalls completed the project in time to support the start of installation of the Swimming Pool without delay and worked with the Pool Contractor to build the walls and patio to complete the project without delays."

"We had them replace our concrete entry with pavers. Austin asked to do the work while we were traveling. When we returned, 2/3 of the area agreed on was done. They did come back and finish the project after questioning my measuring ability. The finished product is beautiful. When I contacted Austin again about sealing the entry (which we had discussed} he ghosted me. Charles Phelps"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

For most brick cleaning jobs, including fireplace bricks, use a masonry sponge and a gentle cleaner. A simple solution of equal parts water and vinegar, or a few drops of dish soap in a bowl of water, can effectively remove grime. For tougher stains, you can use a dedicated masonry or fireplace cleaner. It is crucial to wet the bricks thoroughly with water before applying any cleaning solution to prevent the brick from absorbing it, and to rinse the surface completely afterward. Harsher cleaners containing bleach or ammonia should only be used as a last resort, and they should never be mixed together.

Masonry uses units like bricks, cement blocks, and stone with mortar between them. Mortar is generally made of sand and a type of cement. Examples of masonry include the brick or stone on a house, chimney, or freestanding wall. Concrete is a mixture of water, sand, stone aggregate, and other materials, and is poured into forms or moldings. Types of concrete applications include driveways, garage and basement floors, and poured concrete walls in basements and crawl spaces.

No, it’s not recommended to attach shutters to brick without drilling. Brick is dense and built to last, so adhesives and shortcut methods don’t usually cut it. Even heavy-duty glue struggles to hold up over time—especially against wind, moisture, and temperature changes. Most no-drill options are made for materials like vinyl or wood, not solid masonry. Skipping the drill might seem easier, but it puts your shutters—and anything below them—at risk. For a secure, lasting install, drilling is the way to go. It takes more effort up front, but the result is safer and more reliable.

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.

Yes, staining a brick home can increase a home’s value, assuming your pro does a good job and you keep up with maintenance tasks. Staining brick is a much better way to increase a home’s value than painting brick, as the latter can cause chipping, warping, and bubbling. Brick stain, on the other hand, gets absorbed by the surface, so it can still breathe.
