"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."

"Hecht Masonry repaired the brick half-wall in the front of our home. After driving an hour and 40 minutes to get here, he worked 16 hours to finish the job and it looks great. We appreciated Gavin's courtesy, professionalism and skill and would highly recommend Hecht Masonry."

"This was not an easy job! The granite patio is absolutely beautiful. Some other contractors wouldn't even talk about using that product. Al and team were prompt, professional and competitively priced. When we ran into a minor misunderstanding on finishing work, he made sure I was absolutely happy with the result before he called it a job. I wholeheartedly endorse Goodfellows."

"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."

"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."

"Three stamped concrete patios, one challenging location, and a finished result that exceeded our expectations in every way! We couldn't be happier with the stamped concrete patios and walkways completed by Kali Concrete. From the initial consultation through the final walkthrough, the entire experience was outstanding! Troy and his team were professional, personable, punctual, and clearly took pride in their work. They took the time to explain the process, answer our questions, and make sure every detail was done correctly. The pattern, color, and finish were amazing and looked even better than we had imagined. One of the patios was located in a particularly challenging area of our property, but the crew carefully planned and executed the work with exceptional skill. The layout was thoughtfully designed, the finish work was outstanding, and they took extra time to ensure proper grading, drainage, and a clean overall appearance. The project transformed our outdoor living space!"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

You will repoint over a fraction of the old mortar, but you should scrape away 1/2 to 1 inch of mortar from the joints before repointing. Otherwise, the repointing is only masking the weakened mortar instead of actually replacing it, which could put your chimney at risk of bigger, more expensive damages later on.

When it comes to how to paint a brick chimney, 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.

A mason lays brick or stone together, sometimes with mortar in between the bricks and stones, and sometimes without mortar, also called a dry-stack or surface bonding. Examples of work masons do include:

  • Brick, stone, or cement block houses and buildings

  • Freestanding stone or brick walls

  • Chimneys with wood-burning fireplaces

  • Cement block basement or crawl space walls

It is possible, albeit a lot slower, to break up a rock using water. You would do this by freezing and thawing the water. You could create some initial holes or cracks in the rock, then pour water into the cracks or holes and allow them to freeze (so it's best to do this in winter or in colder climates). Since water expands when it freezes, this puts pressure on the inside of the rock and causes it to crack. You could continue to pour more water in and let it freeze to continue to break up the rock.

Drilling into brick or mortar requires the use of a masonry drill bit. Masonry drill bits appear similar to standard drill bits except for the leading tip of the bit. The tip has a bulky carbide arrow-shaped end slightly larger than the rest of the bit shaft. Standard or high-speed drill bits designed for making holes in wood or metal don’t have the ruggedness or design shape you need to drill into brick. They may not go through the brick at all, and if they do, they’re more likely to overheat, crack, or dull before you finish drilling.
