"NVS just completed my patio paver project on our new house. Over the years I have hired many contractors for various projects. I place these guys at the top of my list. I can't say enough about the professional service, attention to detail, communication, and finish product. I couldn't be happier with my results. Martin, the owner, was involved every step of the way. His crew was outstanding, and the finished product beautiful. If hardscape is what your looking for, at a very fair price, with professional people and results, look no farther than Next Vision Services."

"I discovered mold in my crawlspace and contacted a few contractors to bid mold mitigation. HydroHelp911 was the only one that showed up on time and actually called 15 minutes prior to confirm we were still expecting them. Their estimator (Danny) was professional, thorough and answered all of our questions. Later on that night (as promised) their quote was emailed to me. My wife and I decided to hire them to remove old insulation, perform mold mitigation, install a vapor barrier and install new insulation. Danny explained up front that they were about 6 weeks out from being able to start the work. I appreciated his honesty. About 4 weeks later we started to get updates from their office manager Kyla with estimated start dates. They started within 1 day of their original start date estimated 6 weeks earlier. Their crew showed up on time, prepared and went right to work. They did a great job and cleaned up when they were done. These days it is almost impossible to find a company tht shows up when they say they will, performs the work as discribed and follows through on all their promises. I would Highly recommend HydroHelp 911."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

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.

Handbuilt masonry fireplaces are likely what comes to mind when we think about curling up by the fire at the end of the day. But bricks in the firebox and chimney tend to be heavy, which is not ideal for homes with weak or damaged foundations.

Prefabricated fireboxes come with a full flue and chimney system, significantly reducing the price and installation time. However, if you need to replace the panels down the line, you are locked into the same model or something very similar.

No, you shouldn’t lay bricks directly on dirt. While it might seem like a shortcut, it leads to a patio that shifts, sinks, and becomes a maintenance headache. Dirt expands, contracts, and erodes—none of which mix well with long-term stability. To build something that lasts, excavate the topsoil, compact a layer of crushed gravel, and add a coarse sand-setting bed. This layered base gives your bricks proper support, allows drainage, and helps block weeds from creeping through. Cutting corners here just means you’ll spend more time—and money—repairing your brick patio later.

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.

If your old bricks are in decent condition and you have the space to store them where they’ll be protected from the elements, keeping old bricks is often worthwhile. You’d spend anywhere from $70 to a few hundred dollars to have them removed from your property, in which case you won’t be able to use them for future projects. Holding on to old bricks in good condition means you can use them later for other DIY projects, potentially saving yourself some money on disposal and new materials down the road.
