"As an architect I am very particular about the contractors I hire. Jim Sullivan did an excellent job on our masonry chimneyâ s. He did exactly the work he quoted and did an excellent job. The work was very professional done. He cleaned up and set up safely. He also did the work in a timely manner and communicated if they were any issues. He certainly wasnâ t the cheapest. But I know that you pay for what you get and I was happy to pay for a job professionally and well done"

"I was totally impressed with the job that “next level masonary and construction”did on my project, the men arrived on time and went right to work, they paid attention to how I wanted things to go and they did a 5 star job, they were very professional in their work and I am very happy with how my project turned out, they will be my first call if another job needs this type of work, can’t say enough these guys were great"

"If you're looking for a masonry contractor I highly recommend LBJ Masonry. The quality of work their was outstanding. We've dealt with many contractors since we owned our home, Liam, Bryan and their crew are among the best we have worked with. They were professional and reliable. We couldn't be happier with the end result. Thank you so much!"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

This is largely dependent on the size and hardness of the rock, but a range of tools might work, including hammers, chisels, rock hammers, sledge hammers, and more. You'll need a jackhammer for the very biggest rock-breaking jobs.

Yes, as long as the cut is clean and the brick remains structurally sound, you can reuse it. Reusing brick is especially common for landscaping, edging, and small masonry repairs. Just make sure to file down any sharp edges before handling or installing it.

If you want to make your home eco-friendly, enjoy low maintenance, and love the fact that its looks will take people’s breath away (and not because they were trying to blow your house down), then a modern brick home is right for you. You can hire a mason to get the building process started for your brick home.

But if you’re not fond of the color and don’t want to deal with the process of repointing or other repairs, consider going with vinyl or wood. These materials offer a lower cost. While they tend to require more maintenance, they don’t cost nearly the same as exterior brick house repair.

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.

Discoloration ondifferent types of brick can range from harmless to red flag. For example, efflorescence that is caused by a buildup of water-soluble white salt is considered harmless. However, green or greenish-yellow stains are caused by salts that are harmful to brick. Staining can also be caused by rust, corrosion, lime run, soot, algae, or moss.
