Can I use a regular drill for making pilot holes in brick?

• <div><p>You can use a regular drill to make pilot holes for gutter brackets in the wooden fascia board around the top of your house, but it’s not the best tool for brick. Instead, you’ll need a heavy-duty power tool like a hammer drill with a carbide tip bit.</p></div>

How do you paint a brick chimney?

• <div><p>When it comes to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-paint-brick-home-exteriors.htm">how to paint a brick chimney</a>, consider that standard paint can seal in moisture and cause serious chimney problems. Instead, use a vapor-permeable sealant. You’ll first scrub and sand the chimney; then, you can patch any gaps with caulk and apply the sealant. We recommend hiring a pro for this job since it entails working on the roof, which comes with a lot of necessary safety precautions.</p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between masonry and concrete?

• <div><p>Masonry uses units like bricks, cement blocks, and stone with mortar between them. Mortar is generally made of sand and a type of cement. Examples of masonry include the brick or stone on a house, chimney, or freestanding wall. Concrete is a mixture of water, sand, stone aggregate, and other materials, and is poured into forms or moldings. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-concrete.htm">Types of concrete</a> applications include driveways, garage and basement floors, and poured concrete walls in basements and crawl spaces.</p></div>

Q: Are brick houses safer in an earthquake?

• <div><p>According to the <a href="https://www.earthquakecountry.org/step4/urmwalls/#:~:text=Houses%20built%20of%20unreinforced%20masonry,and%20the%20roof%20is%20critical.">Earthquake Country Alliance</a>&mdash;a public and private alliance in California that works to improve earthquake and tsunami readiness&mdash;reports that unreinforced masonry, such as stone, bricks, and hollow clay tiles, is more susceptible to earthquake damage. The mortar between bricks isn&rsquo;t as stable as other building materials and methods.</p></div>

Q: How far should a brick mailbox be from the home?

• <div><p>The United States Postal Service (USPS) recommends placing a mailbox 6 inches to 8 inches back from the curb. If your lot is unusual, speak with town authorities or the local post office to determine the correct placement.</p></div>

I contacted Jacob about re-grading and adding more gravel to my 180ft driveway. He graded it to get the potholes leveled out and brought in 15 ton of stone to add to it. Packed down great and we have not had any issues with standing water or ruts from driving on it with our cars. Will definitely...

Seagate hauled in 10 ton of gravel by hand in 5 gallon buckets and fixed all problems with crawlspace that the previous owner did not want to do. Seagate tore off old roof and leaking skyline and reroofed house in one day. Also what the previous owner did not want to do. Seagate pricing is great...

Brothers installed six old single pane glass windows in the cellar of a 1900's basement with thick stone foundation. They did a great job of mortaring the new block into the old openings, and the price and work was as quoted.

I would have probably used him, except for the timing. The other company was able to do the work right away. He seemed honest and I liked his attitude. He was very responsive, punctual, and professional. I would use Hartman Brick & Stone in the future.

They were extremely prompt, knowledgeable and skilled at their work and cleaned up well when finished. They laid 1,400 sf of natural stone and it looks great. I am considering using them for additional tile work.
