Customers say: Quick response

"Davis Foundation was amazing. Mr Davis did exactly what was in my contract and so much more. He and his crew were professional in every way. They came when I called without hesitation about things I thought were related to my foundation but wasn't. I was very on edge with the whole process. But he put my fear to rest. My work was done in January which was a very rainy cold month. It took roughly 6 weeks because it rained so much. They continued to show up everyday that it did't rain. I never had to call. Mr Davis cares about the quality of his work and most of all his customers. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was done right. GREAT EXPERIENCE"

"Just as in any project you should understand what you are getting into with the people you hire and the contract you sign. My final bill came to $11,000 which was about $7,000 over the "average" advertised by the company. in all fairness I did request additional work not included in the initial quote of $8,000 (still double the average). Once the work started the crew kept me informed on the progress and were on the job everyday until the job was complete. The only thing that remains is rebuilding the bricks that separated when the foundation was lifted. This is one of the possibilities spelled out in the contract and is my responsibility. The thing that I regret most is buying a house where Yazoo clay is evident in the first place."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Brick and stone are durable, low-maintenance materials for siding and walls that offer excellent insulation, aesthetic appeal, and can increase property value.

Yes! Hot glue is an excellent—and temporary—way to spread holiday cheer with Christmas lights without damaging your brick exterior.

Real stone is exactly what it sounds like: It’s real stone sourced from the earth without additives. It is durable and unique, but it’s difficult to work with because of its weight, challenge in sourcing, and high cost. Stone veneer mimics the look of real stone but is actually engineered with a mixture of Portland cement, natural minerals, and a colorant. While it’s more affordable and easier to work with, it’s less durable and may appear manufactured to the trained eye.

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.

You should generally drill into the mortar joints when installing shutters on brick. Mortar is softer, which makes drilling easier and puts less strain on your tools. It also lowers the risk of cracking a brick—something that’s a lot harder to fix. Mortar holds fasteners well enough for standard shutters, and if you ever need to patch the holes later, it’s a much simpler job than dealing with damaged brick. Just keep in mind that if your mortar joints are too thin or the hardware calls for brick anchoring, you'll need to check the manufacturer’s recommendations and adjust accordingly.
