"We enjoyed working w/Opperman on our Pergola project. We also added a 7x7 privacy wall to the side of our deck. We are happy with the final product. The Opperman Hardscape team were easy to work with and kept in good contact with us for project updates. We felt we made good choice in deciding to work with them. Trustworthy company. The work crew of 3 were on time everyday. They worked with us on suggestions we had without issue. The crew was courteous, friendly, cleaned up after themselves every day and left the work area picked up and tidy. ie small pieces of wood, tile, etc. We appreciated their helpfulness throughout. I would recommend you call Opperman Hardscape for your next project. The quote they provided was fair, and I don’t mind paying a local, family business for good work. Thank you Opperman Hardscape!"

"We had an attached screened-in porch that was sinking.Acculevel came in and detailed every aspect of the repair project and then followed thru to the most minuet detail. Excellent work and very detail oriented. Friendly and cooperative service team that completed the work. This seemed like what was going to be a complicated job, using augered jacks, concrete removal, and replacing trex floor. ...In a nutshell, they made what seemed hard..very manageableand 100% solved.Excellent service, excellant price......Terry M."

"They worked so hard having to dig the trenches by hand. I was so glad that Don could do the mold remediation too. My husband was down in the crawlspace afterwards and was very impressed with the job. Even though it was a messy job, they kept the floor/area covered, cleaned and swept afterwards. They did an amazing job and I would highly recommend them. Appreciate all they did."

"We couldnâ t find anyone local to install a chimney, so went with Shamrock, who had a crew working locally, although they were based 2 hrs away. They came sooner than expected, did the job beautifully, and have been easy to contact with any questions we had. Very pleased with the whole project."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Choose from an abundance of natural and synthetic options when perfecting your hardscape design. Stone veneer costs a bit less, holds up against the tests of time and weather, and also works best in curves and complex walls.

Natural stone, however, provides an organic look to a lawn while providing just as much strength as veneer. Don't forget you can chat with your mason about other common wall materials like brick, cinderblock, and concrete.

Most of the time, you don’t need to seal brickwork and can save that money for another area of home improvement. But if your brick is cracking or you live in an area with a lot of excess moisture (either in terms of rain or freezes), sealing can extend the lifetime of your home. But, make sure you use a breathable sealant, like siloxane, to allow the moisture to evaporate on its own.

Yes, professionals have the skills to restore historical or intricate masonry by respecting traditional techniques and materials. They address damage meticulously, preserving the original design while ensuring stability and longevity.
