"T-Rex turned our nearly impassable, pothole ridden private road into a smooth, completely repaired roadway. Working with T-Rex was great, 0scar is very personable and professional, he gave us several options and prices to choose from, and performed meticulous work. We and our neighbors are very pleased with performance and price. Will definitely recommend T-Rex Excavating to others and work with them again for any future needs. Thank you Oscar!"

"We contracted with Ignacio to install epoxy on our new basement floor after receiving a recommendation from Angie’s List. After talking to him on the phone and other contractors, we decided to move forward as he seemed knowledgeable, responsive, polite and eager to get started. As he requested, we paid half upfront, and funny enough, that’s when things started to change. He was very flaky in communicating with us, late to appointments and never delivered on floor samples he promised us. He also told us he would sand before applying the top coat, then made an excuse on why he skipped sanding altogether. Ignacio completed the work and we paid him the other half of the project. After the floors cured, we went downstairs to enjoy our new floors and were very disappointed with the quality of his workmanship. There was loose sediment that he didn’t bother to vacuum and just epoxied over it. Some of the epoxy was disturbed before curing and left permanent imperfections in the finish. Multiple of Ignacio’s hairs were left visibly sealed into the floor. Multiple bubbles were scattered throughout. Some of the epoxy was mixed incorrectly leaving parts of the floor permanently sticky. I called Ignacio asking him to come back and repair his poor workmanship. He became extremely defensive and belligerent, making excuses for his shoddy work. He eventually agreed to return and make repairs but refused to schedule a time. He kept repeating, “I’m busy. I’ll let you know when I can come back”. Weeks pass with no word from him. I contacted him again asking when he is going to come back. He continued on with his belligerent responses saying he’ll let me know but refused to actually schedule a time for him to come back, then hung up on me. It was at this point it occurred to me that he wasn’t going to come back. Funny enough, there are two other reviews on Angies List that pretty much mirror my experience. Shame on Angie’s list for recommending Ignacio and shame on me for not doing my due diligence. Stay away from Ignacio. He’s a fraud contractor that does not stand behind his work."

Stone and Gravel questions, answered by experts

The cost of masonry work varies widely depending on the type of masonry along with common cost factors like size, complexity, location, and season. Most exterior masonry work done in freezing temperatures tends to cost more because of the preparation and protection involved to keep the masonry from freezing before the mortar cures properly. The average price ranges per project or square foot for different types of masonry include:

  • Brick wall (fence, garden wall, etc.): $10–$45 per square foot

  • Natural stone wall: $40–$110 per square foot

  • Manufactured stone veneer: $20–$40 per square foot

  • Brick home exterior: $10–$30 per square foot

  • Brick siding: $3–$10 per square foot

  • Stone siding: $35–$50 per square foot

  • Brick step replacement: $20–$30 per square foot

  • Brick wall repair: $20–$40 per square foot

  • Chimney repairs: $160–$750 per project

  • Tuckpointing: $5–$25 per square foot

It’s called cobblestone because it’s made of stones that are “cobbed” together. A cob is a term that refers to rounded lumps. Originally, cobblestone streets were made from pebbles and stones gathered from riverbeds that had been rounded over time by the passage of water. The term has nothing to do with a cobbler, which is the term for someone who makes and fixes shoes.

You should use cement for a chimney crown. The purpose of the chimney crown is to protect the mortar below from water damage and the effects of weather. For this reason, chimney crowns should only be made using cement. When repairing a crown, use caulks and sealants designed for cement repair rather than mortar repair.

Use fire bricks for a brick pizza oven. These bricks are typically used for fireplaces and chimneys as they can withstand high temperatures from heat sources. If you attempt to use any other kind of bricks, it’s likely that this material will crack from such high heat exposure in the best case—and potentially explode and cause serious harm in the worst case.

Mortar is a mixture of sand and cement that binds materials, such as bricks, stones, and concrete blocks, together. Think of it as the glue that fills in the gaps between bricks and stones, then seals them in place to prevent damage or deterioration. Mortar also helps spread the load across a wall or structure, keeping cracks and shifting at bay.
