"I contacted The Crack Team for foundation wall crack waterproofing after finding water near our utility lines and basement corner. They arrived on time, answered all my questions, and did clean work. What impressed me most was how respectful and honest the crew was throughout the whole process. The leaking stopped completely and the area looks great now."

"The job involved 2 brick paver walkways that needed to be completely redone and expanded. This father and son were a pleasure to work with. Very detailed in exactly what they would do, we left the pattern up to them and it turned out beautiful. They were there every morning and put in a full day. Completed the job 2 days ahead of time. They were both really detailed oriented. When they left the yard was spotless. They even power washed the driveway where they cut the bricks. We have worked with alot of contractors over the years. I cant say enough about how happy we are with their work. I would use them again in a heartbeat. We live on a corner so their work is on display on the side street side of the house. We have already had people stop and tell us how beautiful it looks."

"Elon inspected my foundation to determine what walls were holding water. He took measurements and took time to share a video of the repair he was recommending. I will have four anchors installed on the problem wall at a very fair price."

"Ron and Roy did an excellent job on my project, starting with power cleaning all brick, porch and tuck pointing all needed areas and REPLACED 5 lentils over windows. When I was getting estimates, one competitor actually threw up his hands and said, "Heck, I would hire THEM if I were you!" Glad I did. I've since hired Yellow Rose for a small concrete job at another home. Great guys, many years of experience, enjoyable to work with."

"I am a licensed structural engineer, and I hired Russ because it was very clear that he knows what he is doing. He properly sized and reinforced new concrete foundations and masonry piers. And, to his credit, he would not build new foundations on saturated soil because soil is weaker when wet - Russ waited until the soil was dry enough to safely build on, to make sure things went right. Russ made sure I was satisfied throughout the entire process. He maintained communication with me so I could plan accordingly for the work to happen. His crew was mindful, professional and courteous. They cleaned up after their work, patched a minor issue with a duct that was in their way, and warned me to close my windows when they needed to sawcut masonry blocks, to prevent dust and noise in the house. His son was part of the team at my house each day and is equally committed to the work. Russ was on site for all 3 of the days required to finish my work, and he came out again at the end to discuss the results and give me my invoice. My single word of caution to other customers is just to be aware that simply because of Russ' expertise, he is busy with other jobs, at least in summer 2016. He will work with you to determine priority and your job will get done, and done RIGHT, but you may need to be a little patient due to his other jobs or weather. Talk with him about this if you are concerned about timeline. I hired him in spring/summer so other work is probably at a maximum during this time. All in all, I would absolutely hire him again and have already recommended to a friend. Russ is committed to making you happy, and his rate was much better than the competition."

"Foundation Systems did a great job. Job started as waterproofing basement but when portion of drywall was removed we discovered problems with foundation walls. They came up with a plan to strengthen & straighten walls as much as possible. Their crew did a great job. Would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone with waterproofing issues."

"Erie Homes completed a basement waterproofing for us on 11/20/23. We were impressed and pleased by the professionalism and communication at every phase of the project. Brandon expertly explained the Erie Homes waterproofing system, sump pumps, materials, and warranty and provided us with a quote and pricing details. Having being burned by projects in the past, we came back with a long list of questions and conditions. Brandon answered every single one, made sure that we were completely satisfied with the terms, and added our notes to the contract. Project manager Gage and the team that came to our home was quick and professional. They periodically filled us in on the progress and communicated any changes or concerns. When the project was completed, they walked us through and made sure we were happy with the work before leaving. Since finishing, we have had several rainy weeks and a completely dry basement. Based on the product, work, and customer service, we will be highly recommending Erie Homes to anyone needing basement or waterproofing work."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

When painting brick, each application method has pros and cons. Spraying is much faster but may not penetrate the porous surface of the bricks. Rolling is effective for getting paint into the bricks but doesn't work as well on the mortar. Brushing is very time-consuming and also won't penetrate beyond the surface. For the best results, a combination of spraying and rolling is often recommended. If you use a roller, choose a thick option (at least a half-inch) and ensure the paint gets into all the crevices for even coverage.

Landscape boulders, especially porous stones like sandstone or granite, can crack or break over time. Cracks occur when water seeps into the surface of the stone and freezes. The risk is highest when it rains during the day and temperatures freeze overnight since the moisture has time to penetrate deeper into the rock before expanding.

Yes, but used or reclaimed bricks can be more brittle, cracked, or uneven than new bricks, so they’re harder to cut cleanly by hand. For that reason, you should take extra care when scoring and striking, and expect a higher chance of breakage. If a brick feels especially fragile, score deeper before attempting to split it.

Drilling into brick doesn’t have to be a dangerous project if you prep and approach it with the right tools and techniques, but it does come with risks if it’s not done correctly. It can lead to significant issues, such as damaging the brick or affecting the wall’s structural integrity. Applying too much force can crack or chip the brick, while incorrect placement might compromise its load-bearing strength. 

Removing paint from brick can have both aesthetic and practical value. Some people prefer the timeless look of bare brick, making it worthwhile to remove old paint layers. Brick also lasts longer when unpainted, as paint traps moisture, causing the brick to deteriorate more quickly. If your brick walls are already in bad shape, stripping the paint off might do more harm than good.
