"My project involved the repair of a number of broken bricks that were failing to hold two loose wrought iron railings on my backyard steps. Charles was very responsive to my initial call, and provided a very timely and fair estimate. He and his crew arrived on time and did a phenominal job with the repair. I would highly recommend Carolina Concrete and Brick and would not hesitate to utilize their services in the future."

"I want to recognize three young men who recently completed our basement work through Groundworks: Matt, Taylore, & Gavin. The work was thorough, clearly explained, & the finished product looks excellent. But the biggest positive was the crew. They worked incredibly hard every day on a physically demanding, messy job, yet remained professional, disciplined, & respectful. They took great care of our home, kept debris contained, & cleaned up afterward. Matt took time to explain the full system to us & went above & beyond to help replace insulation that had fallen, even though it wasn't part of the job. Taylore & Gavin were equally helpful, helping us salvage & store shelving materials and remove a few stubborn pieces we couldn't manage ourselves. I'm genuinely impressed by their work ethic, attitude, & pride in doing the job right. I would absolutely recommend Groundworks, but especially these three young men. They represented the company exceptionally well!"

"Tim Lockey was very easy to work with. He was clear about how he could remove my junipers and that he would leave the job with raked dirt. I was very pleased with my experience with Mr. Lockey and his assistant."

"Fast Lane Contracting cleared about 500 square feet of thick forest in our back yard. Robert and Melody are friendly and professional and asked us all along the process what we were wanting and if they were providing that service as we wanted. They truly cared about doing the job exactly as wanted. The price was good, too. I would definitely use them again."

"I wanted to install a patio around my existing screened in porch using pavers. Alex responded very quickly to the project request and was able to come to the house within a day or so to review what I wanted and to provide a quote. He was extremely knowledgeable and explained everything in a clear/concise manner as well as making a couple of suggestions for a more cohesive look. Once scheduled, Alex and team showed up on time, worked throughout each day with only a lunch break, and completed the job within 2 days. The finished patio/rock area is well done and beautiful. I would use Silva Landscapes again and highly recommend them for any project!! Thank you Silva Landscapes!!"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

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.

When painting brick, each application method has distinct advantages and disadvantages. Spraying is significantly faster but may not penetrate deeply beyond the surface layer. Rolling is effective for working paint into the brick's texture but can be less effective on mortar joints. If you opt for a roller, choose a thick nap of at least a half-inch to ensure paint gets into all the crevices for even coverage. Using a brush is generally not recommended as it is very time-consuming and provides poor surface penetration. Ultimately, a combination of spraying followed by back-rolling is often the best strategy for a durable and even finish.

Natural stone is formed in deep layers of the Earth through natural processes over thousands of years. The solid composition formations become massive rock beds, or quarries, from which miners extract them.

The best color to paint a brick fireplace comes down to personal taste. However, neutral colors—like white or gray—will open the space and create a bright modern look, making them popular options. However, choosing a bold color can turn your fireplace into a feature piece that will be the talk of all family gatherings. 

Yes. Black stains are more than an eyesore. Some black stains can pose health concerns, especially for those with asthma, allergies, or other respiratory conditions. Some stains can also damage the brick’s structural integrity, harming the mortar and resulting in more expensive repairs.
