"David and his crew were true professionals. We had hired another "contractor" to do this same work and we had to have them tear out the pavers and sent them home. David then came and did the work like it should have been in the first place and the patio looks great! I would highly recommend Mueller Concrete Services & Hardscape to anyone that wants excellent craftmanship and service at a reasonable price..."

"A & R Concrete Solutions, LLC arrived on time, he was polite, knowledgeable, gave good suggestions for the 2 sidewalks needing to design and sent us an estimate by that evening. He got showed up to our home day of job on time, the weather held out and completed the job earlier than expected. He cleaned up all materials and it looks amazing. Absolutely would highly recommend A & R Concrete Solutions LLC and have plans for him to do additional repairs."

"Josh Gilley quoted the job initially and stayed in constant contact with me until the service was complete. He explained the entire process, walked me through his plan, the process, the timeline and even walked me through financing options. He also stayed in contact to help ensure scheduling and logistics were handled (even through the holidays!) and was available for more questions while the service was being completed. It felt like concierge-level service, and every interaction with employees far exceeded all of my expectations. Iâ d never dealt with foundation issues before as a homeowner, and I had so many concerns about cost, logistics, and just fear of the unknown. Josh was an incredible resource and frankly a champion of the company and I knew weâ d made the right choice from start to finish. Our 80 year old home feels safe and restored now, and Iâ m so grateful to know our time and money was well spent."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Yes, but used or reclaimed bricks can be more brittle, cracked, or uneven than new bricks, so they’re harder to cut cleanly by hand. For that reason, you should take extra care when scoring and striking, and expect a higher chance of breakage. If a brick feels especially fragile, score deeper before attempting to split it.

Certain towns and homeowner associations (HOAs) ban brick mailboxes because of the risk of obstruction. They are sometimes only permitted in cases where four or more homes share a mailbox. Homeowners may need to obtain special permits in some locations. One of the top masonry contractor hiring tips is to ask a local pro if they can show you examples of recent work that meets local code regulations.

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.

In some cases, black stains on brick are caused by organic substances like algae and mold. However, it's more likely that the black spots you're noticing on your bricks come from carbon from vehicle exhaust or soot. Black stains can usually be removed by scrubbing the brick with a brush and masonry cleaner or power washing.

Cutting stone comes with a number of safety hazards. First and foremost, if you’re not comfortable with the equipment required to cut stone, including blades and grinders, you could easily injure yourself. The heavy machinery also poses a risk to your ears if you don’t wear proper ear protection; similarly, you need to wear eye protection to keep debris from irritating your eyes.

However, the biggest risk from cutting stone comes from the stone dust. When breathed in, stone dust can be a huge hazard to your lungs. Always wear a face mask when cutting stone to prevent inhaling stone dust, and thoroughly clean the work area when you are finished.

To avoid injury, we recommend hiring a stone-cutting professional, rather than attempting this job yourself.
