"Service technicians showed up when they said they would and took 3 days for the installation. About 2 weeks prior to that Steve visited my house and went over options for installation and came up with a plan and price. The installers kept me engaged in the process and we made decisions for equipment and placement for every piece of hardware. Before they did any drilling, they had me look at the location and my approval first. The only technicians to work like that. Couldn't be happier."

"I would recommend them to anyone who needs masonry work done. They did a good job of grinding out the mortar and replacing a brick on my front steps. However, the job also included grouting around the top step where the concrete meets the siding and on the last step where it meets the sidewalk. They used white grout, which stood out like a sore thumb, and was too wide and very gloppy. When I told them about it, they said they would wash the steps down one day and come back the next, take the white out at the bottom and replace it with gray. But they did the washing and the grouted over the top of the white. Now, the gray grout was 1 1/2 inches wide in places. Looked terrible, and the white just looked worse and worse. Called again. They came out and took out the gray and white and put a clear grout. Looked better, so I asked them, to take out the white and put clear on the top step. They did, and it looks better than the white, but they should have done that in the first place. While the young men seemed to know masonry work, they definitely were not good at grouting. The steps look old now, from so much grinding, grouting, and work, and the top pad was just replaced 2 or 3 years ago. It looks much older. But I must say, they did come back and re-do when I was not happy. Just wish they had done it right the first time. Plus, I forgot to tell them, that they put their tools on my grass on those 90+ degree days. The front lawn has come back, but on the side, I have a patch where they killed all my grass. I think it must have been part of the coiled-up hose because there is a line from it to my hose and that was the day they washed my steps off."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Professionally done brick repointing can last 20 to 30 years, sometimes longer. However, the exact lifespan depends on several factors, including the quality of the mortar, the skill of the mason, and exposure to weather. If you live in an area with harsh weather or frequent freeze-thaw cycles, you may need to repoint more often. Repointing that is done as a DIY project may only last 10 to 15 years. It's time to repoint when you notice signs of mortar failure, such as crumbling or missing mortar, holes, or vines growing between the bricks. Regular inspections can help you catch these issues early.

Handbuilt masonry fireplaces are likely what comes to mind when we think about curling up by the fire at the end of the day. But bricks in the firebox and chimney tend to be heavy, which is not ideal for homes with weak or damaged foundations.

Prefabricated fireboxes come with a full flue and chimney system, significantly reducing the price and installation time. However, if you need to replace the panels down the line, you are locked into the same model or something very similar.

Common causes include weather exposure, moisture, and settling. Regular maintenance prevents significant damage.

The best way to clean creosote from brick is to hire a professional chimney sweep. However, you can use a creosote log to remove excess buildup between cleanings. You can also clean minor creosote buildup using dish soap or vinegar mixed with water.

Landscape boulders, especially porous stones like sandstone or granite, can crack or break over time. Cracks occur when water seeps into the surface of the stone and freezes. The risk is highest when it rains during the day and temperatures freeze overnight since the moisture has time to penetrate deeper into the rock before expanding.
