"When Kyle came out to give us an estimate on a landscaping project, we asked him to provide an estimate for the installation of a veneer stone for the back wall of our home.  We received both proposals and accepted them.  Kyle instructed us to research what stone we wanted and as long as he could get it, installation would not be an issue (it was nice to know we were not limited in what style, etc, of stone we could choose from).  My husband and I found the stone we liked online and informed Kyle.  Within a few days Kyle responded that he would be able to get the veneer although there was a price difference between his estimate and what we picked out.  The difference was reasonable so we went for it.  Once the stone was available, Kyle made an appointment to have it installed.  His staff arrived on time and was very courteous and professional.  They respected our home and cleaned up after themselves.  The wall was completed in two days and was absolutely beautiful.  We loved it so much, we are going to have veneer installed on the front.  Thanks Kyle and staff.  You can tell Kyle takes pride in his business!

"We needed our brick front walk repaired. We did some research and also asked neighbors for referrals and got two. The first contractor wanted to replace our entire brick steps and walkway with flagstone (expensive!). The second contractor was Brothers Pavers and Jose said he could repair only the part that needed fixing. He provided a quote (very reasonable) within a day and started work the following week. We were in a time crunch and Jose was able to work us in. Amazing!! It took two days to do the repair and each day the work area was cleaned. Once the mortar was cured, they came back and power washed the steps and walkway - it looked brand new! We highly recommend this company. Jose and the team were excellent to work with."

"After receiving 3 estimates to have a 14 year old deck replaced we decided to go with Freedom Fence & Deck, my husband and I are so glad we did. Dan was very knowledgeable and professional; he was so helpful explaining the best product to use for our new deck. We received an estimate to tear the old deck down and replaced the new deck before Dan left our home. Dan & Candy, the office manager, followed up with the permits & our HOA requirements. The approximate period of time to get the deck started and to finish were as agreed on our contract. The crew, Whitey & Cody was very knowledgeable & hard working, great workmanship from start to finish. The deck was completed in a very reasonable time during very hot weather. They both were very personable & answered all our questions. Whitey & Cody cleaned up the work area everyday and made sure we were comfortable with the progress made on the job each day. We cannot thank you enough for your excellent service. The deck is a prime example of your hard work and dedication. We are looking forward to enjoying our deck for many years."

"CBJ HOME IMPROVEMENT did a tremendous job on my brick patio. I needed major brick paver repair and leveling. From Doug who accessed the situation to David and his crew Gerlin and Juan, everything came out perfect."

"I am very pleased with my experience with JES and their repair of the foundation on my home. Rafael Garcia and Kevin Alfaro walked me through everything that was being done as the work progressed and showed me the what was done as they progressed. Along with Armando Aguilar, they were prompt and worked efficiently. I would recommend them to anyone with foundation concerns."

"Mr. Janouris arrived promptly at noon to our residence, where he executed a very professional assessment of our retaining wall issue. 
In the past rainy months, we have had stones and fill leaking from a small relief hole that was previously cut in the wall prior to us purchasing the home. Mr. Janouris examined this leak in detail and informed us of what can be done to prevent any further issues in the future--essentially indicating that we could do it ourselves for relatively little money. 
He then kindly took it upon himself to look at the rest of the homes foundation and point out a few other potential issues which might cause us problems down the road. This was greatly appreciated by myself and my fiancee. We know that there are some contractors who will find issues with the home, and attempt to throw large quotes at the couple in the hopes of landing a large contract. Mr. Janouris did not do this, nor did he urge or attempt to sell us on anything that we didn't need. 
This visit and assessment was a very educational one, and if our home needs any foundation work in the future we will definitely be giving Mr. Janouris and A A Action Waterproofing a call.

"Outdoor advantage did a superb job. They removed a large (20x12) fish pond that had been in place for over 30 years. They had to haul away about 6 tons of field stone then create a flat and level surface for the pool. They then seeded and put straw down on the bare area. They showed up on time and finished at the end of the day. Outdoor advantage is my go to company for any landscaping project. I've used them many times and wouldn't hesitate to use them in the future."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Fireclay is a type of clay but it is a type of clay that, because of its chemical composition, can be fired at a much higher temperature than other clays. This results in a denser and more heat-resistant final material. Because of the high percentage of a mineral called kaolin, fireclay sinks are smoother and more durable than other clay types.

Depending on the amount of soot present, you can vacuum some of it using a brush attachment on your vacuum cleaner. Then, remove the leftovers with a mild cleaner, such as dish soap or vinegar mixed with water. Before applying a cleaning solution, saturate the bricks with clean water to prevent the cleaner from penetrating beyond the surface and causing structural damage to the bricks.

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.

According to the Earthquake Country Alliance—a public and private alliance in California that works to improve earthquake and tsunami readiness—reports that unreinforced masonry, such as stone, bricks, and hollow clay tiles, is more susceptible to earthquake damage. The mortar between bricks isn’t as stable as other building materials and methods.

Limewash can be removed from brick, but the method of removal will depend on how long the limewash has been on the brick. If the limewash has fully dried—which happens after about five days—you’ll need to use a diluted muriatic acid mixture to remove it. If there are multiple coats of limewash, you may need to apply the acid mixture several times to fully remove it from the brick.
