"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."

"Mahon did an excellent job for me. The technician had to saw through a very large and hard root to get my pipe to flow downhill and he kept working on it until he broke through. He was very cooperative and went out of his way to make sure everything was right and I was satisfied. They called the morning of my appointment to reschedule the next day because it was raining and set me up for the very next day."

"Exceeded my expectation with waterproofing my entire basement + window wells. These guys are the real deal! I worked with Rob and I was educated and all my concerns were addressed. They do it right by you, the contract missed a window well and they were able to addressed that without having to go through a whole new quote/contract. Helped move some furniture around and left the place clean."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Some older brick material is extremely hard, making it tough to create a hole. Rather than using a typical wood drill bit, always use a masonry drill bit when drilling into brick. For extremely hard brick, using a power drill with a hammer function may give you better results. The drill bit will heat up as it goes into the extremely hard brick, so you may need to stop after a few minutes and allow the bit to cool before starting to drill again.

Yes, an outdoor fireplace should use fire bricks. Fire bricks are specially designed to withstand high levels of heat and thus won’t crack as easily as regular bricks when exposed to the intense heat inside a fireplace.

You can hang holiday lights on brick without drilling by using hot glue, outdoor tape, or brick clips for your project. There are plenty of alternatives to consider, so consult a professional Christmas light installer to discuss the best options to preserve your brick exterior.

Mortar is a mixture of sand and cement that binds materials, such as bricks, stones, and concrete blocks, together. Think of it as the glue that fills in the gaps between bricks and stones, then seals them in place to prevent damage or deterioration. Mortar also helps spread the load across a wall or structure, keeping cracks and shifting at bay.

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.
