"Robert and Angel came early in the morning and worked all day to repair 80 year old stone pillars and split rail fence that were destroyed by a car driving through it. By the end of the day, it was restored to a fare better condition than it was before and matched to former character and colors. I also learned that Robert is a very skilled stone sculpture artist, and he left his finger prints and impressions on our new stone fence."

"Not really a "brick, stone or block wall - install" but it's the closest I could get with the list. Ripped out 30+ year old brick island at the front of our subdivision, installed a new concrete version & filled with topsoil. The job came in at or under the price quoted & we are very happy with it. I was very impressed with Adrian in regard to his work ethic, desire to please a customer, knowledge, scheduling & ability to get the work done."

"They were very accommodating. The work was originally scheduled for January 2012 and they were able to change their schedule to do the work the day after Christmas. They got everything done that I needed to get done. They did excellent work. They were competitive with everybody else. It is hard to say anything about the quality because they did foundation work and you cannot go in there and see anything."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can paint stone on the exterior of a house. It’s important to properly prep the stone by cleaning off dirt and debris. You’ll want to apply at least two coats of paint to get the most even and complete coverage. Any pinholes or missed spots, however small, can allow moisture to get into the masonry and potentially cause the paint to blister and peel from the stone.

Mortar and thinset both serve the same purpose—tile adhesion—but have different compositions and use-cases. Thinset is heatproof and presents a wide range of possibilities due to the added polymers. Mortar is typically used for bonding stones and brick. Thinset is rarely used outside, while mortar is rarely used inside.

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.

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.

Discoloration ondifferent types of brick can range from harmless to red flag. For example, efflorescence that is caused by a buildup of water-soluble white salt is considered harmless. However, green or greenish-yellow stains are caused by salts that are harmful to brick. Staining can also be caused by rust, corrosion, lime run, soot, algae, or moss.
