"Quick respsonse to inquiry. Mr. Holt is upfront about working a short day, but completed my project within a week. My flagstone patio looks like new, also cleaned, pointed, and sealed brick pavers bordering drive and sidewalk. Reasonable price for work. I have already reccomended him to friends who have been looking for masonry repair for as long as I dis."

"Nicolas and his crew were wonderful to work with and did an amazing job, we are extremely pleased with how this project turned out. Yes, it takes awhile to get on his schedule - because he is in demand. Yes, it seems expensive - but not when considering the amount of work performed, the specific skills involved, the weather conditions, and the cost of supplies and labor. Nicolas and his team helped change my do-it-yourself brick pathway that tree roots had upheaved and which drained toward our deck, into a professional looking walkway with proper drainage. They removed and reused the bricks to create level and more functional storage areas. They put another pathway and stone steps into the slope down to the patio, which is now also finished with pavers. Nicolas was attentive to details and added requests, and guarantees their work and that you will be happy with it. We would recommend them and use them again without hesitation."

"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."

"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

In Durham, repair is usually more cost-effective if less than a third of the masonry is affected and the foundation is solid. However, widespread water damage or ongoing settling may require full replacement for long-term durability. Historic neighborhoods often favor repairs to preserve original stonework. If repair costs approach the majority of replacement, investing in new masonry work is often the better choice.

Helpful?

Your Durham home is ideal for masonry work if the foundation is stable, drainage is effective, and existing brick or stonework shows only minor wear. Homes built before 1980 or those reflecting Durham’s historic styles often benefit from brick repair or patio installation. Address any signs of foundation settling, poor drainage, or invasive tree roots before starting new masonry projects.

Helpful?

In Durham, small brick repair jobs may take just a few days, while patio installations or medium stonework projects typically last one to two weeks. Larger undertakings, like driveway construction or major structural repairs, can extend over several weeks. Weather delays, permit processing, and contractor schedules often affect timelines, especially during Durham’s busy spring and fall home improvement seasons.

Helpful?

When tackling masonry work in Durham, begin projects early to avoid peak heat and humidity, and watch for sudden summer storms. Use stable scaffolding on uneven ground, wear dust masks to minimize allergen exposure, and ensure proper ventilation when mixing mortar. Always follow local building codes, respect neighborhood noise restrictions, and keep first aid supplies accessible for everyone’s safety during stonework or brick repair.

Helpful?

In Durham, homeowners often overlook the impact of clay soil on masonry foundations, leading to settling issues. Failing to install proper drainage, using the wrong mortar mix for local weather, and starting brick repair projects during the wet season are frequent errors. Ignoring the need for permits and not accounting for freeze-thaw cycles can also reduce the durability of stonework and patios.
