"We got stuck wth a lemon of a foundation repair job that the previous owners of the home had done in 2014. We bought the home almost a year later in 2015. Atlas corrected every mistake that the previous owners' company made. It was a pricy job, yes. But this is proof that you get what you pay for. The previous owners went cheap. Water proofing companies are a dime a dozen, they are NOT all structural companies. Atlas is the real deal when it comes to structural issues that lead to water penetration into the home. If you're getting water from the walls, make sure you have a professional structural inspector or contractor take a look first. Obviously the home inspector didn't catch anything out of the ordinary prior to our purchase, otherwise we would've never have bought the home. Only through chance did we discover the extent of structural damage to our home."

Customers say: True professional

"We are totally satisfied with the professionalism, skill, work ethic and overall attention to detail provided by Hector Martinez and his extremely capable crew. This is a contractor you can trust. They completed the job timely once they had started. Prices are fair. Our emphasis was on the quality of the materials and workmanship rather than the cheapest contractor we could find, as value is important to us. We feel this concrete will endure for many years to come. We plan to hire Hector again for additional masonry projects."

"Very professional from start to finish. We have an older home that has partial cinder block foundation. They were able to seal the problem areas and with recent heavy rainfalls, all dry! They sent me a video prior to the job to show us exactly how the process worked. Very happy and satisfied would definitely recommend Real Seal!"

"The work went extremely well. The concrete is now properly raised and sloped for drainage. The gap between the slab and my front stairs is also sealed. It looks great. I highly recommend Perma-Seal."

"it went very well, technician call 30 minutes before their arrival, once they arrived they introduced themselves and got right to work. The inspection went well and the technician made sure to show me what they were seeing. After the inspection there was some work that needed to be done and was suggested. After seeing photographs and discussing with the technician, I choose to have some of the proposed work done. There was no pressure or hard sales pitch, just practical safety and maintenance issues. The work was able to be accomplished during the visit, and in addition an additional discount was provided. The technicians were knowledgeable, professional and did a nice job cleaning up after themselves. I will have them back to do a more thorough masonry inspection in the spring when there is not snow on the roof."

"A few days before the drain tile install a mason came and bricked in the window of the window well.  On the day of the install three men worked at our house.  One man spoke english, the others not so much.  The men removed a basement window to carry out the broken pieces of concrete.  They shut the door to the room in which the drain tile was installed to keep down the dust.  We had to remove tile prior to the install.  The men were able to drill within the space provided.  The install went smoothly.  The village inspector came during the install to approve the work and at the end to check to concrete.  We were approved.  We got the drain field extension out into our front year. We were told that the cover would be able to mowed over but now their are small rocks around the pop up cover.  Not a big deal but different than we expected.  Anything to keep water out of our basement.
US Waterproofing was a great company to work with.  We made the estimate appointment on line from their website. Chris came out to do the estimate. Seemed to know his stuff.  He was very responsive to our emails.  Nick was the project manager who came out before the install.  He too was very quick to respond to questions.  I would have liked him to stop in on the day of the install to check on things.  The men who did the install worked hard.  I wish we were told ahead of time that they needed to take out the basement window but it worked out.  The final village inspection found that the men had not sealed the exterior pipe to the house.  They returned within a few days to fix that oversite.    Overall we are pleased with the work of US Waterproofing.  I would recommend them to others.

Masonry questions, answered by experts

You can purchase from many brick manufacturers and distributors via their websites, where you can also get estimates based on the quantity you need. You’ll find bricks at your local home improvement stores as well, though they won’t have as much of a variety to choose from. As for antique bricks, secondary selling websites like eBay can be a great resource.

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 work tends to be more expensive because the materials can be costly, such as natural stone and brick. Masonry is also very labor intensive, typically making up 50% or more of the final project cost. In addition, quality masonry work requires years of training and experience, as with any skilled trade.

Stone veneer siding is approximately four times less expensive than stone because it's made of concrete and aggregates instead of natural stone. But veneer looks like real stone, is easier to install, and acts as a great, durable siding option. 

The premise for painting a brick building is fairly simple: Prime the bricks to seal the surface and apply the top coat to protect your brick home. However, it’s easy to miss a few important steps if you’re starting from a raw brick surface and don’t know the basics of how to paint brick. So be sure to reach out to a local professional painter if you have any reservations about correctly painting your brick house.
