Customers say: True professional

"Ryan was very courteous and he arrived on time and he did a fabulous job. I would hire him again if I needed any masonry work. He had another friend come over and help him. Together they completed rebuilding a brick and stone chimney in about 3 1/2 hours. In addition they cleaned the soffit vents and power washed the deck. They cleaned up very well after the work was done. I am very happy I hired Ryan of RCO Masonry and Restoration LLC."

"These guys were awesome!! From the initial estimate to the finished product stellar service all around. They were very informative every step of the way with our chimney rebuild project. What started out as tuck pointing quickly escalated to a rebuild. Our chimney was not well maintained by the previous owner. This company was on it even after it quickly escalated to a larger project. They still got it done same day and it looks fantastic! Can’t recommend them high enough. If you need some masonry work done call these guys for sure."

"Mike and staff were very prompt, professional and precise. They were hired to install pavers in my backyard to compliment my deck and expand my out door living space. I met with Mike, explained my needs and he suggested pavers and worked with my budget. I am definitely pleased and will call them again for future landscaping needs."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Chimney mortar typically lasts 20 to 30 years, depending on its quality, local weather conditions, and maintenance. Over time, exposure to moisture, freezing, and thawing cycles can cause mortar to deteriorate, leading to cracks and gaps. Regular inspections and timely repairs, such as repointing or tuckpointing, can extend the lifespan of chimney mortar by ensuring the structure's integrity.

Not all cracks in brick indicate foundation problems. For instance, small hairline cracks can occur as a new construction settles. However, larger cracks are often a sign of a more severe issue. Indicators of a potential foundation problem include long horizontal cracks, "stair-step" cracks, vertical cracks that appear indoors, or any crack that widens at the top. Other signs of structural damage to look for are uneven floors and doors or windows that stick. These issues could be caused by problems with the soil beneath the home or an overgrown tree.

Solid brick structures can last a century or more, potentially 100 to 150 years with proper maintenance like tuckpointing. Without major repairs, classic red bricks may last 20 to 40 years. Brick veneer siding is also a long-lasting material, with a lifespan ranging from 50 to 100 years, provided it is properly installed and maintained. To maintain brick veneer, you should scrub it annually with a special detergent and a soft-bristled broom. It's also important to inspect the bricks and mortar regularly and hire a masonry contractor for any necessary repairs, such as fixing worn mortar or bowing bricks.

Yes, masonry is more expensive than concrete because the labor is much more involved. With masonry, your expert will build your project from the ground up, one piece at a time, ensuring they use the proper amount of mortar or grout during construction and keeping the project level or plumb. Pouring concrete can also be labor-intensive, but it’s a bit less involved. It requires building a mold, pouring the concrete, and letting it cure. The less intensive labor makes concrete a more affordable option in most cases.

Removing paint from brick can have both aesthetic and practical value. Some people prefer the timeless look of bare brick, making it worthwhile to remove old paint layers. Brick also lasts longer when unpainted, as paint traps moisture, causing the brick to deteriorate more quickly. If your brick walls are already in bad shape, stripping the paint off might do more harm than good.
