"Brian and his crew were professional and courteous. Communication was complete and was always made aware of progress, and schedule. Job was completed promptly and looked great. I would recommend Masonry Plus and I’m having a project for next year hopefully using his team again."

"The owner and crew from Magalhaes were some of the most professional hard working masonry contractors I have ever worked with. We needed a new front walkway, training walls and some cobblestones to line the edges of our new dry. They helped us plan and design the walkway,walls and 2 new steps. They found just the right colts and pattern we were looking for. If you needed masonry work this is the company you should hire you will be very pleased with the work and the prices were very fair."

"New England Foundation Crack Repair responded very quickly to my call. Will came out to look at the project and explained thoroughly what needed to be done. On the day of the scheduled work, Tony and Ian arrived to take on the project. Both of these gentlemen were knowledgeable, competent and courteous professionals. Upon completion of their work, the outside grass and stone area looked like it had been undisturbed and the interior basement area was spotless. Tony and Ian are a definite asset to this company and I would highly recommend New England Foundation Crack Repair."

"Rob and Tom are the masters at their craft, no pun intended. It was a pleasure working with them both to ease any concerns we had about our foundation. They were helpful and spent an hour with me on the phone walking through every detail of what my concerns were, educating me, and never once selling me (I lead a sales team so that was huge), to eventually understand the problem and paint the picture on how they can help. We have other needs at the house and will definitely use them in the future. Check around like I did on price and you will not beat them for the quality they provide. Sure some may be cheaper, but they will not put the pride of work into what they did with our house. The before and after work with the pictures they provide is pretty telling and they show you the materials used, walk you through what happens, and how this will help. Can't wait to use them again for other projects and they receive my highest recommendation. Thanks again guys!"

Masonry FAQs, answered by experts

No, you shouldn’t lay bricks directly on dirt. While it might seem like a shortcut, it leads to a patio that shifts, sinks, and becomes a maintenance headache. Dirt expands, contracts, and erodes—none of which mix well with long-term stability. To build something that lasts, excavate the topsoil, compact a layer of crushed gravel, and add a coarse sand-setting bed. This layered base gives your bricks proper support, allows drainage, and helps block weeds from creeping through. Cutting corners here just means you’ll spend more time—and money—repairing your brick patio later.

Yes, it is normal to see some minor hairline cracks in brick or mortar over time, often due to natural foundation settling. However, not all cracks are harmless. You should be concerned and contact a masonry professional for an inspection if you notice cracks that are getting wider or longer, or if new ones keep appearing. Other serious warning signs that can indicate significant structural or foundation damage include large vertical cracks (especially those that widen as they go up), stair-step cracks, L-shaped cracks, and deep horizontal cracks. Factors like temperature changes, moisture, and structural loading can also cause cracks to form or worsen.

Yes, you can do German schmear on stone. You can account for the more textured and rough surface of stone by using a large paintbrush instead of a putty knife. A brush allows you to drag mortar across the stone to get it into all the cracks and crevices. However, a brush will cover more of the surface, so you may need a wet sponge to scrub excess mortar and expose more of your stone.

Yes, you can technically use a pressure washer to remove paint from brick, but it comes with a significant risk of damaging the brick surface. A high-power pressure washer can be fast but may leave the brick looking unsightly. The recommended method is to first apply a chemical paint stripper, following the product's instructions, and then use a stiff metal bristle brush or a pressure washer on a low-pressure setting to remove the loosened paint. Due to the risk of damage, it is often best to hire a professional who can use low-stress methods.

Brick houses can last at least 100 years with minimal maintenance. With regular care and attention, including mortar repointing, brick houses can last 500 years or more.
