"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!"

"Joshua did an incredible job rebuilding and repairing our chimney during a major renovation. The work was done carefully, cleanly, and with a clear understanding of both structural integrity and safety. He explained what needed to be done, why it mattered, and made sure everything was done the right way—not rushed. Seeing the finished brickwork framed into the new space gave us a lot of confidence moving forward with the rest of the project. Professional, knowledgeable, and dependable from start to finish. Highly recommend."

"While we hired AllAmerican construction to deal with a gutter issue, which they accomplished by adding a downspout and sealing an end cap, the reason we are giving them 5 stars is that they did a free inspection of of the roof and all things protruding from it. They took pictures of problems they found including openings around 2 standpipes and flashing problems around the chimney. Two days after that first meeting they returned with all the parts and equipment necessary to do the gutter work, replace the standpipes where they exit the roof, and do the flashing replacement/repairs. They also took further pictures of the chimney showing us areas where water has gotten into the chimney structure. We are currently in talks with them about taking the chimney down to the roof line and rebuilding it to fix these problems. We have been very pleased with all three people we’ve been working with-Erica, Jonnathan, and Edison."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Mortar, or masonry mortar, is mainly used in joints and as parging for stone, brick, or cement construction. Stucco is primarily a surface material used as wall coverings. For maintenance, masonry will need repointing or replacing as damage or land shifting occurs, whereas stucco will need patching or refinishing as it tends to crack over time along with other types of wear-and-tear.

They offer durability, aesthetic appeal, and resistance to weathering compared to concrete or asphalt.

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, it is normal to see some minor hairline cracks in brick or mortar over time, often due to natural foundation settling. However, not all cracks are harmless. You should be concerned and contact a masonry professional for an inspection if you notice cracks that are getting wider or longer, or if new ones keep appearing. Other serious warning signs that can indicate significant structural or foundation damage include large vertical cracks (especially those that widen as they go up), stair-step cracks, L-shaped cracks, and deep horizontal cracks. Factors like temperature changes, moisture, and structural loading can also cause cracks to form or worsen.

It is possible, albeit a lot slower, to break up a rock using water. You would do this by freezing and thawing the water. You could create some initial holes or cracks in the rock, then pour water into the cracks or holes and allow them to freeze (so it's best to do this in winter or in colder climates). Since water expands when it freezes, this puts pressure on the inside of the rock and causes it to crack. You could continue to pour more water in and let it freeze to continue to break up the rock.
