"James M and Eric R helped us with everything they could but we just couldn't get it in our budget. These two gentlemen helped us out and I appreciate it but if I come to a point where i can fit this project in on my budget I'd definitely call DaBella. Thank you guys for EVERYTHING you guys did."

"Kenny did a great job of ordering our materials and making changes a** needed. He met all his time commitments. He did a good job of communicating the status of the project. He left the area clean when done. Both of his helpers were very personable and did a great job. I will recommend New Frontier Fencing to my neighbors and friends."

"We recently had our roof replaced by Idaho Heritage Roofing, and I can't say enough good things about the experience. From the first phone call to the final inspection, everything was handled professionally and with real care. Dakota and his team were upfront about costs, timelines, and materials. They showed up exactly when they said they would and kept the work area clean every day ? which we really appreciated with kids and pets around. What really stood out was the attention to detail. They didn?t cut corners, and they even caught a couple of small issues from a previous install that they fixed without us even asking. That kind of pride in workmanship is rare these days. Our new roof looks great and gives us peace of mind heading into the winter. I?d highly recommend Idaho Heritage Roofing to anyone looking for quality work from honest, local folks."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

It is possible, albeit a lot slower, to break up a rock using water. You would do this by freezing and thawing the water. You could create some initial holes or cracks in the rock, then pour water into the cracks or holes and allow them to freeze (so it's best to do this in winter or in colder climates). Since water expands when it freezes, this puts pressure on the inside of the rock and causes it to crack. You could continue to pour more water in and let it freeze to continue to break up the rock.

Yes, you can use a mixture of 1 tablespoon of bleach and a gallon of warm water to clean stubborn stains from brick. Do not use bleach without diluting it in water. Undiluted bleach may cause discoloration. You can use either Oxygen bleach such as OxiClean or chlorine bleach. Always wear protective gloves and eye protection when handling bleach.

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.

There are many things to look for when buying a brick house. Here are some of the key things you should pay close attention to.

  • Lintels: Look for cracks, holes, displacement, or corrosion

  • Mortar: Check to see if the mortar is old and crumbling, in need of repointing, or new. Also check to see if the mortar has a professional finish.

  • Walls: Check along each side of the house. If a wall is bowing outward, this indicates a severe issue such as foundation damage or that the walls are ready to fall.

  • Cracks: If there are stair step cracks in the brickwork, this indicates an unstable foundation.

Granite is the strongest commercially available stone houses are built from. It’s also more commonly available, which means transport costs aren’t as high because a granite quarry isn’t too far from a build site. Limestone and sandstone are popular materials as well, but they aren’t as strong or weather-resistant as granite.
