"During his free inspection and estimate, Ian took the time to enlighten us about wood foundations and the problems he saw, one of which we'd ovelooked. During the repairs, Shane and Dominick were equally generous with explanations, and ended each day with a summary of work done and plans for the following day. All were very pleasant to deal with, and made the whole experience as painless as possible. Our county inspector, looking at the work on the problem Ian spotted, said it was lucky we caught it when we did, and assured us we were in good hands. We couldn't have asked for a better experience, and highly recommend this company."

"This job was completed efficiently and professionally. A design specialist came to test and measure every detail for the project. The crew arrived with everything needed for the job. They worked very hard to install Waterguard in the concrete floors inside around the foundation to the sump pump basket. They also installed Geo-lock anchors to support a block wall that was bowed. This company has 36 years in business and provides excellent results and professional customer relations. Call Amer. Wtrwrks for a free estimate. You will not be disappointed. A wise investment of $11,270."

"Nice people, kept me informed and I could tell they knew what they were doing, this wasn’t their first rodeo. Only complaint was despite having a Bobcat on site all day, they never used it to smooth over the dig site and push the unearthed rocks to the side. I’ve been working on that ever since."

"We could not be happier with the outcome of this project! Keenan and his team saved us from a DIY project that we bit off more than we could chew. He came out and gave us a quote less than 24 hours after reaching out to him and was able to get started on the project the following weekend. He was willing to work with the materials we had already purchased saving us the headache of returning everything. When we ran into issues with our pavers he took it upon himself to remedy the issue with the home improvement store the materials were purchased through. Again, going above and beyond what was agreed upon. He was upfront with cost changes as the project progressed and was cognizant on where he could save us money. We would, with not doubt, hire Keenan again."

"We worked with Rick and his colleague for a fairly large project at the lake, including path and stairs to the lake, some riprap work, and paver walkway and patio with fire pit. We appreciated Rickâ s professionalismâ He was great with communication and was very responsive to all forms. He worked to make adjustments to design and other details in a fair manner. His thoughts on design and his approach to problem solving for difficulties in terrain were great and very welcomed. The quality of their work was excellentâ RIck stands by his commitment to quality and this is evidence in his not calling the job complete until he was able to make certain with were fully happy with the results. Also evidence is his commitment to returning this spring to be sure the work stood up over the fall and winter. Given the size of the project and the small size of the crew (2 persons) the time of project was quite long. Also, PureScenery was quite a bit more expensive. However, assuming the quality in workmanship and customer service remains over time, will be worth the extra cost. We strongly recommend PureScenery."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

While painting can certainly change the look of a chimney, you should think twice about giving your brick chimney the old landlord special.

Painting brick is porous, meaning it’s full of tiny holes that can soak up moisture. Those holes also allow it to dry, though. So, when you paint it, you trap any moisture inside, providing an opportunity for mold, mildew, and water damage.

Paint also shows wear faster than naked brick. This means that once you paint a brick surface, you’ll have to keep painting it to maintain a clean look. A paint job is also harder to undo on brick because of its porous nature. Once you paint it, it’s hard to go back without some serious power washing—another added cost.

This is largely dependent on the size and hardness of the rock, but a range of tools might work, including hammers, chisels, rock hammers, sledge hammers, and more. You'll need a jackhammer for the very biggest rock-breaking jobs.

Cobblestone fell out of favor with the advent of motor vehicles. Asphalt and concrete are both much smoother surfaces allowing for a smoother ride. Asphalt is also much cheaper, especially for driveways. However, we didn’t stop using cobblestone altogether, and you can still see it as a decorative option in both homes, in parks, and in pedestrianized areas of cities.

Yes, masonry is more expensive than concrete because the labor is much more involved. With masonry, your expert will build your project from the ground up, one piece at a time, ensuring they use the proper amount of mortar or grout during construction and keeping the project level or plumb. Pouring concrete can also be labor-intensive, but it’s a bit less involved. It requires building a mold, pouring the concrete, and letting it cure. The less intensive labor makes concrete a more affordable option in most cases.

You can hang holiday lights on brick without drilling by using hot glue, outdoor tape, or brick clips for your project. There are plenty of alternatives to consider, so consult a professional Christmas light installer to discuss the best options to preserve your brick exterior.
