"M & L did an excellent job!!! Leo advised me on what pavers would work best before we started, and I am very happy with what we chose. M&L arrived as promised, and came everyday (12+ hour days) until the job was finished. They picked up and left the site clean. Their attention to detail and meticulous work can not be overstated; they blended the new patio with an existing small patio seamlessly. They communicated the options we had and made sure I was happy with every aspect of the work."

"We needed to patch up our front steps where some bricks and mortar joints were loose. After putting the request into Angi's, David contacted us the same day and scheduled to come out to look at the work the following day. After meeting with us, David told us he would be able to finish it in 8-10 hours and actually was able to complete the work the next day! All in all, David was highly communicative and got the job done in less than 72 hours with high quality work! We would definitely use him again!"

"Wowza. That's what sums up my experience with Marc Michaud of Maine Coast Masonry. From start to finish, Marc was the consummate professional as well as just an overall super genuine person. I had Marc completely rebuild two entranceways to my home, as the stairs were extremely outdated. He took out the old concrete slabs and replaced them with beautiful stonework. One of the things I like best about Marc is that he's an authentic mason. Marc does things old school. He comes from a long line of masons and knows how do construct and fabricate using methodologies that work and last. I'm already looking at additional projects I want to hire him to do! He's that good."

"They were lengthening my Driveway. They had done the driveway 4 years ago and had done a very good job. I rehired then to extend the driveway. In the process the machines they used damage the old Driveway. They did not tell my wife who was at home or contacted me to tell me. This upset me more than the damage did. I had to text him/ email email him. He did say he would repair and seal coat the driveway. He has partially repaired the driveway, they missed one spot. He is to return in week or two and seal the Driveway. If the damage had not happen I would have given 5 stars"

"We had a duplex, 2 narrow driveways, that I couldn't get anyone to commit to. Finding a reliable plow guy is so difficult these days. 2 years in a row it was a nightmare finding someone. Aaron agreed and was very upfront about where the snow would go etc. He was responsive on snow days and accommodating when asked to start. We really appreciated his services and would recommend his company for snow removal services"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Mortar and thinset both serve the same purpose—tile adhesion—but have different compositions and use-cases. Thinset is heatproof and presents a wide range of possibilities due to the added polymers. Mortar is typically used for bonding stones and brick. Thinset is rarely used outside, while mortar is rarely used inside.

Yes, brick should be clean before staining to ensure the best results. Dirt, dust, mold, mildew, and other substances on the brick can prevent the stain from properly adhering to it. Thoroughly cleaning the brick allows the stain to penetrate and bond to the surface more effectively. Cleaning typically involves using a pressure washer or a stiff brush with mild detergent. However, stubborn residue may require a specialized masonry cleaner.

A chimney cleaning brick or log can help loosen creosote between professional chimney cleaning appointments. Although they can help keep your chimney cleaner, they are not a substitute for chimney sweeping and are not meant to be used regularly.

There are many things to look for when buying a brick house. Here are some of the key things you should pay close attention to.

  • Lintels: Look for cracks, holes, displacement, or corrosion

  • Mortar: Check to see if the mortar is old and crumbling, in need of repointing, or new. Also check to see if the mortar has a professional finish.

  • Walls: Check along each side of the house. If a wall is bowing outward, this indicates a severe issue such as foundation damage or that the walls are ready to fall.

  • Cracks: If there are stair step cracks in the brickwork, this indicates an unstable foundation.

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