"The owner Robert worked with us to design the patio, listened to our concerns and made modifications along the way. The crew, led by Angel, worked very hard and were very professional. The patio turns out really beautiful. Robert sticks to the original estimate although we changed the straight line to a curved line in some areas. We added a lot more sitting benches which were quoted by length and was honored. A couple of extra natural stone pieces were added at the end, which added "character" to the patio (although unplanned), and I appreciate the creativity."

"Alan did a great job. We had bluestone stepping stones added to a pathway, River stones placed around a pavilion and completed with mulch. He was dependable, honest and was easy to work with. We highly recommend Landmark Design Landscaping. They do excellent work."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Yes, staining a brick home can increase a home’s value, assuming your pro does a good job and you keep up with maintenance tasks. Staining brick is a much better way to increase a home’s value than painting brick, as the latter can cause chipping, warping, and bubbling. Brick stain, on the other hand, gets absorbed by the surface, so it can still breathe. 

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.

Professionally done brick repointing can last 20 to 30 years, sometimes longer. However, the exact lifespan depends on several factors, including the quality of the mortar, the skill of the mason, and exposure to weather. If you live in an area with harsh weather or frequent freeze-thaw cycles, you may need to repoint more often. Repointing that is done as a DIY project may only last 10 to 15 years. It's time to repoint when you notice signs of mortar failure, such as crumbling or missing mortar, holes, or vines growing between the bricks. Regular inspections can help you catch these issues early.

Common causes include weather exposure, moisture, and settling. Regular maintenance prevents significant damage.

You can purchase from many brick manufacturers and distributors via their websites, where you can also get estimates based on the quantity you need. You’ll find bricks at your local home improvement stores as well, though they won’t have as much of a variety to choose from. As for antique bricks, secondary selling websites like eBay can be a great resource.
