"Mr. Chavez met me personally and walked the yard before offering a quote of $600. We negotiated and settled on $500, more than I'd anticipated spending. The land owner had had a friend do it for $200-$300 but it was probably in much better shape than what I was dealing with. We agreed on $500, no deposit, no paperwork. He arrived with his crew the next morning and were still working when our dog walker came around 12:30. Grass looked great when I got home, back gate was clean, the gypsy moths were gone but the poison oak vines remained. When I called and mentioned the vines he said his crew would come back and take care of them. Paperwork with details of the job might have helped that issue in case anything was missed as it was definitely a lot of work as the yard had gone neglected for at least several weeks by my guess. I highly recommend his services. It would have taken me at least a weekend to do what he and his crew accomplished in hours."

"JES Foundation Repair came out and looked at the basement, outside at the wall, and at the neighbors attaching wall and were really honest and said their services were really for much larger jobs than ours and even gave some recommendations for things we could do and pointed us to the likely source and didn't charge us anything for coming out. I would highly recommend."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Stone houses used to be much more practical, but with the advent of stronger and cheaper materials like concrete, they aren’t seen as much anymore. There are some parts of the world where it makes sense to build with stone, and they are usually next to a stone quarry. Stone is, however, very weather-resistant, which is why many homes near the sea and on mountains are still built with local stone.

A mason lays brick or stone together, sometimes with mortar in between the bricks and stones, and sometimes without mortar, also called a dry-stack or surface bonding. Examples of work masons do include:

  • Brick, stone, or cement block houses and buildings

  • Freestanding stone or brick walls

  • Chimneys with wood-burning fireplaces

  • Cement block basement or crawl space walls

Granite is the strongest commercially available stone houses are built from. It’s also more commonly available, which means transport costs aren’t as high because a granite quarry isn’t too far from a build site. Limestone and sandstone are popular materials as well, but they aren’t as strong or weather-resistant as granite.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

The white stains you see on your bricks are likely efflorescence, which is salt and lime buildup. To remove efflorescence stains, simply brush them away with a stiff brush. For larger, more stubborn stains, scrub the stains with a water-detergent solution.
