"Zac and Cornell were professional and were happy to answer any questions and show us what they were doing and how the wall would be repaired. They left our basement very clean and even removed a wasp nest! The repair was done in one day and both Zac and Cornell made us feel very confident in their work skills."

"We set up an appointment with Rick to get an estimate on some work we needed completed on our basement. Rick was honest with us and told us he wouldn't be able to handle the project. After he left, he called us back because he had looked up the name and number of a company that the thought could help us. I would recommend this company based on their honesty and willingness to help even if they aren't going to profit from the project."

"Cutt Construction was great to us. We have a awesome looking kitchen with great appliances and his crew came when they said, had the project in hand, finished early and kept us informed all they way. Cutt Construction was a value add for my family and made the difference between not having a usable house and having one that works. We give this company first consideration with every project now."

"George and his company were very prompt and professional. He offered great advice on what was needed and he gave a very honest assessment of what needed to be done and how I could save money without sacrificing quality or the integrity of the finished product. These are qualities you don’t see much anymore when profit is the priority. Do yourself a big favor and use George and his team at M&W Excavating. I highly recommend them.9"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

The exact cost of bricks depends on the type and size of the bricks you use for your project. Generally, standard clay bricks cost between $350 and $850 for a thousand bricks, or an average of $550. Brick veneer costs around the same for materials but is easier to install than solid bricks, so you’ll save on labor by choosing this option.

Brick can increase the value of your home depending on the type of masonry materials used. Homes generally have a higher resale value when they have brick siding, and brick is also easier to maintain (and lasts longer) than other types of siding, which can motivate buyers to make an offer.

Just keep in mind, however, that although brick can up the asking price when you sell your house, the cost to brick a house is also more expensive than other typical siding costs—so you’ll invest more in the project.

Mortar is a mixture of sand and cement that binds materials, such as bricks, stones, and concrete blocks, together. Think of it as the glue that fills in the gaps between bricks and stones, then seals them in place to prevent damage or deterioration. Mortar also helps spread the load across a wall or structure, keeping cracks and shifting at bay.

Yes, brick can breathe through limewash. Limewash is a breathable coating made from natural lime and water, allowing moisture to pass through while providing a protective layer. Unlike synthetic paints or sealants, which can trap moisture within the brick and lead to issues like mold, limewash allows the brick to maintain its natural breathability. This characteristic makes limewash an ideal choice for historic structures where preserving the integrity of the brick is essential.

Cutting stone comes with a number of safety hazards. First and foremost, if you’re not comfortable with the equipment required to cut stone, including blades and grinders, you could easily injure yourself. The heavy machinery also poses a risk to your ears if you don’t wear proper ear protection; similarly, you need to wear eye protection to keep debris from irritating your eyes.

However, the biggest risk from cutting stone comes from the stone dust. When breathed in, stone dust can be a huge hazard to your lungs. Always wear a face mask when cutting stone to prevent inhaling stone dust, and thoroughly clean the work area when you are finished.

To avoid injury, we recommend hiring a stone-cutting professional, rather than attempting this job yourself.
