Customers say: True professional

"Excellent service by a team of professionals. Our foundation needed repair and it was done quickly and efficiently. The crew of Chase, Logan and John worked non-stop until the job was done. We liked the work so much that we had an additional chimney repair done while they were on-site. Very happy with the results. I would hire Absolute Masonry again if I need masonry work in the future."

"No one likes to spend hard earned dollars to raise concrete. Our case was no different. Mark and Nick were great. Hardworking. Willing to address our concerns. that were not specifically spelled out as well as they should have been by Tyler, our adjuster. We had documented all conversations and Mark made the corrections as needed. No surprise overages. Thank you."

"Randy, did a great job. The various cracks in the brick mortar of our outside two-story garage wall had worried us for some time. He was professional and thorough and cleaned up after as if he wasn't even there. The brick looks great again. We highly recommend Unique Masonry."

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.

If your old bricks are in decent condition and you have the space to store them where they’ll be protected from the elements, keeping old bricks is often worthwhile. You’d spend anywhere from $70 to a few hundred dollars to have them removed from your property, in which case you won’t be able to use them for future projects. Holding on to old bricks in good condition means you can use them later for other DIY projects, potentially saving yourself some money on disposal and new materials down the road.

Costs range from $3,500 to $15,000, depending on material, labor, and design complexity.

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. Types of concrete applications include driveways, garage and basement floors, and poured concrete walls in basements and crawl spaces.

Certain towns and homeowner associations (HOAs) ban brick mailboxes because of the risk of obstruction. They are sometimes only permitted in cases where four or more homes share a mailbox. Homeowners may need to obtain special permits in some locations. One of the top masonry contractor hiring tips is to ask a local pro if they can show you examples of recent work that meets local code regulations.
