"In Aug./Sep. 2019, Rogers Masonry did a tear-down of our decrepit stuccoed chimney, followed by a beautiful brick re-build. The project posed some every unique challenges that Roger handled with a high level of professionalism and diligence. He is exceptionally knowledgeable in all chimney-related matters and provided almost-daily progress reports to document the work his crew was performing. His communication was exemplary, and he was responsive to our questions/concerns, all of which he promptly addressed. We were especially appreciative of the many pictures of the ongoing work that Roger provided throughout the project. We have already had the opportunity to make a referral for Roger and hope to work with him on another chimney project in 2020."

"We are extremely pleased with the work that Hardline Concrete and Masonry completed for us. Jon and Brenda are wonderful to work with and made a point to ensure our needs were met for our project. Their crew was also very kind and professional. The patio that they installed for us is beautiful and the quality of the work appears to be excellent. We are confident that we will be able to enjoy our new patio for many years to come and will definitely hire Hardline Concrete and Masonry for future projects."

"They tuck pointed and repaired brick steps. The price they charged was less than half of the other estimate we received. ( That is not an exaggeration.) The work was excellent and performed on a timely and efficient basis. They promptly returned calls and otherwise communicated with us on a timely basis. We plan on using them for all brick and masonry projects."

"Robert was great to deal with.  He not only supplied the best bid the work was done in a timely manner.  I'm very pleased with the result of the project.  He started on time and worked long days in the heat and completed the project in one week.  He went out of his way to come up with brick that was close to the original as they don't make the original (from the 1950's) anymore.  Robert was thorough and delivered the job at budget within the timeframe we agreed to.

"Extremely impressed by the service provided. They were kind, respectful and efficient. They cleaned up all of their mess. The men that came out to my home were professional and provided complete perfection in their work. We would highly recommend this company. The neighbors were not disrupted and my family was not inconvenienced during the process. The final presentation after their service was performed was absolutely flawless. They were able to transform an extremely hazardous patio into an area where my young children can now play. Our patio was horrible before they arrived. We actually negotiated $2,500 off the selling price of our home because our patio was not level. We have to cross the patio each time we enter the residences from the garage, and it was something that needed immediate attention. We had several companies out to give us quotes and options. We were told that it would be impossible to lift and told that we had to replace completely. Two companies told us they could lift the patio and quoted is five times what we paid MN Concrete... Literally 5 times as much. Minnesota Concrete Lifting had zero trouble completing the job. After they left, even though it was 60 degrees out, my children went outside and set up their little blue pool that they had not been able to use previously on the patio. I could go on and on raving about how satisfied we are. Do not hesitate to hire Minnesota Concrete Lifting. You will not be disappointed.

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."

"Donovan was communicative about the start date and as we approached the actual date they started right on time. Demolition was quick but they still took the time to get it right. Re-building and installation was done well and looks perfect. They communicated any challenges they ran into quickly and provided a pricing impact almost immediately. I arrived home each day was given an update on the progress and was walked through what was to happen the next day. They hit the quoted price almost exactly with additional work needed due to unforeseen issues.
The finished product is beautiful and I would not hesitate to use Kingscapes again or recommend them. Really well done.

Masonry questions, answered by experts

It’s called cobblestone because it’s made of stones that are “cobbed” together. A cob is a term that refers to rounded lumps. Originally, cobblestone streets were made from pebbles and stones gathered from riverbeds that had been rounded over time by the passage of water. The term has nothing to do with a cobbler, which is the term for someone who makes and fixes shoes.

Some older brick material is extremely hard, making it tough to create a hole. Rather than using a typical wood drill bit, always use a masonry drill bit when drilling into brick. For extremely hard brick, using a power drill with a hammer function may give you better results. The drill bit will heat up as it goes into the extremely hard brick, so you may need to stop after a few minutes and allow the bit to cool before starting to drill again.

Brick spalling—which refers to the crumbly, flaky, or pitted appearance that can develop over time—is caused by a few different conditions. These include:

  • Climates with constant freeze-thaw cycles

  • Use of non-breathable sealants

  • High-pressure water cleaning

  • Improper installation

While you can’t do anything about the weather, you can preserve your bricks by cleaning them with soapy water and a good old-fashioned scrubbing. Pressure washers may be satisfying to use, but they can eventually wear away the surface of your bricks. If you don’t have advanced-level DIY skills in masonry, you can hire a reputable masonry contractor in your area for your project.

No, it’s not recommended to attach shutters to brick without drilling. Brick is dense and built to last, so adhesives and shortcut methods don’t usually cut it. Even heavy-duty glue struggles to hold up over time—especially against wind, moisture, and temperature changes. Most no-drill options are made for materials like vinyl or wood, not solid masonry. Skipping the drill might seem easier, but it puts your shutters—and anything below them—at risk. For a secure, lasting install, drilling is the way to go. It takes more effort up front, but the result is safer and more reliable.

In some cases, black stains on brick are caused by organic substances like algae and mold. However, it's more likely that the black spots you're noticing on your bricks come from carbon from vehicle exhaust or soot. Black stains can usually be removed by scrubbing the brick with a brush and masonry cleaner or power washing.
