"Marconi did an excellent job replacing my front steps. He was prompt in providing a quote and was very helpful in explaining various options to me. Everything came out great -- high quality, completed promptly, excellent attention to detail. I would highly recommend Marconi without hesitation for any type of stone work."

"Legacy Stoneworks installed my patio and walkway recently . I am very pleased with the superior craftsmanship and the timeliness of the project considering a couple days of rain. The crew were very polite, on time and were mindful of the property leaving it clean at the end of the day. Rodrigo is the ultimate professional that really cares about his clients and making them happy with excellent craftsmanship. It was an absolute pleasure to do business with him and I highly recommend Legacy for any stonework."

"Project: 2 patios using pavers. Received quotes from multiple contractors about the project, Andre and his team were the most professional throughout the entire process. Few neighbors used other contractors to do their patio, but I can honestly say my turned out much better, also at the same cost. Will definitely use them again for my next project."

"AC Stoneworks were awesome! We had them build a paver patio for us. Their pricing is very reasonable and they were responsive, efficient, and friendly. They suggested some excellent ideas during the quoting phase, and were happy to make some adjustments during the work phase. Great to work with!"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

You should clean your home’s brick once per year. This applies to exterior brick, but also to cleaning brick fireplaces. Create a homemade cleaning solution with equal parts vinegar and water. Use a soft-bristle brush to scrub the solution into the face of your brick and remove dirt, algae, and stains. Cleaning will protect brick from damage and boost your home’s curb appeal.

Yes, staining a brick home can increase a home’s value, assuming your pro does a good job and you keep up with maintenance tasks. Staining brick is a much better way to increase a home’s value than painting brick, as the latter can cause chipping, warping, and bubbling. Brick stain, on the other hand, gets absorbed by the surface, so it can still breathe. 

No, using a power sander on brick is not recommended because the force of the sander can destroy brick's fragile outer layer. Even using sandpaper on brick is discouraged because of the damage its abrasiveness can cause.

To stain brick, you should use a product specifically formulated for brick, concrete, or other masonry surfaces. These stains are designed to penetrate the porous surface of the brick and bond with it. This is different from paint, which sits on the surface and is prone to peeling, flaking, and trapping moisture that can cause damage. Water-based brick stains are often recommended because they are easy to apply, even for DIYers, and they allow the brick to breathe. Avoid using regular paint on brick, as it will not adhere properly and can lead to future maintenance problems.

Cobblestone fell out of favor with the advent of motor vehicles. Asphalt and concrete are both much smoother surfaces allowing for a smoother ride. Asphalt is also much cheaper, especially for driveways. However, we didn’t stop using cobblestone altogether, and you can still see it as a decorative option in both homes, in parks, and in pedestrianized areas of cities.
