"MX Construction is Amazing!!! My fence is Beautiful, Functional and Well Constructed. I was to pleased with Gustavo and His Professional crew. My fence Project was a Large one. These men worked diligently to secure my property for containing my dogs and allowing me the pleasure of not leashing, which at time I was roped and tied by the long 3 leashes. Seriously if you are considering fencing installation or repair, MX Construction is the answer. Thank you one and all at MX Construction. EXCELLENT PROFESSIONAL WORK and Crew."

"I couldn't be happier with the job he did! He removed two large trees, ground both stumps completely, and cleaned up every bit of debris before he left. When he was finished, you couldn't even tell the trees had been there. He was professional, hardworking, arrived on time, and treated my property with care from start to finish. His attention to detail and thorough cleanup really set him apart. He did exactly what he said he would do, and the quality of his work exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend him to anyone needing tree removal or stump grinding. I would definitely hire him again!"

"Theron and Vince are some of the most reliable, efficient plumbers I know. They got me onto their schedule right away, showed up to give me an estimate looking very professional, and preformed excellent, clean work. I thought all plumbing companies were the same until I called Marathon Plumbing. I will be recommending Marathon to everyone I know from here on out. No one can beat their professionalism and honest work."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

The best way to clean creosote from brick is to hire a professional chimney sweep. However, you can use a creosote log to remove excess buildup between cleanings. You can also clean minor creosote buildup using dish soap or vinegar mixed with water.

Not all cracks in brick indicate foundation problems. For instance, small hairline cracks can occur as a new construction settles. However, larger cracks are often a sign of a more severe issue. Indicators of a potential foundation problem include long horizontal cracks, "stair-step" cracks, vertical cracks that appear indoors, or any crack that widens at the top. Other signs of structural damage to look for are uneven floors and doors or windows that stick. These issues could be caused by problems with the soil beneath the home or an overgrown tree.

You should worry about brick wall cracks when they are wide and growing, or in a horizontal or stair-step pattern. Additionally, they may be accompanied by other signs of structural stress. In these cases, a foundation specialist should inspect your home.
