"Andres discussed several options with me for a raised deck or patio to the backdoor. He set a reasonable price for all the work he did: raised concrete patio with stairs, door installation, wood railings plus he and his crew were extremely helpful with small jobs I asked for. In the small community I live in it is very hard to find responsive, reliable, reasonable contractors who do the job RIGHT! So glad I found him."

Customers say: Quick response

"We had a brick building from the 1910s where the bricks were deteriorating. In addition, another building next to ours was demolished and this created another dimension of repair on one side. When they arrived they worked quickly and provided great work with a very professional approach. We can't say enough good things to express our satisfaction."

"I heard about Prestige Landscaping through peers, so I decided to check them out. Although I was able to complete my project without any of their physical labor, I did call them and ask multiple questions and they did not hesitate to help. I would definitely recommend their services to whoever is looking for dedicated/high quality work!"

"I called the company in August, left a message, and recieved no reply. I Called again in October and they came out the next day.
The main problem was that they overestimated the area of my roof. I have a 28 square roof (2800 square-feet). They said i have a 35 and one-third square roof.  Companies charge between $200 and $300 per square, so this is a large difference.
I went with Affordable Pro Roofing which used 31 squares (28 squares + 10% waste) at a cost of $6000, which was $2000 less than EJs estimate.

Masonry questions, answered by experts

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. 

Choosing the right paint color for your brick house can be a daunting task. A great strategy is to find painted brick houses that you like and try to replicate the look by researching their colors or asking the homeowners for the specific paint color code.

If you're looking for specific ideas, several colors work well on brick. Different shades of white, such as off-white or cream-white, can create a modern, timeless, and classic look that is unlikely to go out of style. For a more contemporary aesthetic, you might consider a matte black tone. Other popular choices include gray, blue, and sage green.

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.

Cutting stone comes with a number of safety hazards. First and foremost, if you’re not comfortable with the equipment required to cut stone, including blades and grinders, you could easily injure yourself. The heavy machinery also poses a risk to your ears if you don’t wear proper ear protection; similarly, you need to wear eye protection to keep debris from irritating your eyes.

However, the biggest risk from cutting stone comes from the stone dust. When breathed in, stone dust can be a huge hazard to your lungs. Always wear a face mask when cutting stone to prevent inhaling stone dust, and thoroughly clean the work area when you are finished.

To avoid injury, we recommend hiring a stone-cutting professional, rather than attempting this job yourself.

Do not use super glue to hang lights on brick unless you want your lights up year-round. Hot glue is a better choice because it’s easily removable with a small amount of rubbing alcohol. Super glue is very hard to remove, and you could tear off parts of the brick in the removal process.
