"Used ALB construction to repair my sidewalk. They contacted me immediately and came the next day to give me an estimate. When I hired them, they gave me a day that they would show up, and they did! The work was done well. The crew was really polite and professional. The sidewalk looks great. All in all, it was a joy to work with this company."

"Profine Construction is terrific. Eric was extremely responsive and attentive from our original estimate through completion of our project. He provided alternatives to either repair or rebuild the brick steps in the front of our home, while offering advice but making clear that he would take care of us either way. We ended up rebuilding and the steps and railing seamlessly match our home, including a difficult to match brick and pattern. The job was done right and we would absolutely work with Profine again."

"I had a great experience with Black Rock Exteriors, LLC. They were professional, honest, and really took the time to make sure the job was done right. The quality of the work was excellent, and they treated my home with care as if it were their own. It’s hard to find reliable contractors, but I’d definitely recommend them to anyone needing roofing or masonry work. They repaired my asphalt shingle roof, and it looks fantastic."

"I used HomeAdvisor to find a licensed professional for my masonry project. Three contractors responded but Grand NJ Construction stood out as superior. Tony promptly traveled quite a distance to look at the job. His quote came in lower than the other two quotes. But it wasn't just the price that was appealing. He had some creative ideas to make my project look cosmetically great. It was a repair job so I wasn't expecting it look like anything special. But in the end, it really did. Tony made an effort to ensure the project was beautiful, secure and that my property was spotless upon completion."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Stone houses used to be much more practical, but with the advent of stronger and cheaper materials like concrete, they aren’t seen as much anymore. There are some parts of the world where it makes sense to build with stone, and they are usually next to a stone quarry. Stone is, however, very weather-resistant, which is why many homes near the sea and on mountains are still built with local stone.

Yes, brick should be clean before staining to ensure the best results. Dirt, dust, mold, mildew, and other substances on the brick can prevent the stain from properly adhering to it. Thoroughly cleaning the brick allows the stain to penetrate and bond to the surface more effectively. Cleaning typically involves using a pressure washer or a stiff brush with mild detergent. However, stubborn residue may require a specialized masonry cleaner.

The material you use depends on how hard-wearing your steps need to be and what you want them to look like. The most common stone for exterior steps is bluestone. It’s hard-wearing and durable, and bluestone steps cost between $15 and $30 per linear foot. Limestone is also a popular option and is mid-range, costing $25 to $50 per linear foot. You should always consider the specific requirements of your project before ordering any materials.

You should clean your home’s brick once per year. This applies to exterior brick, but also to cleaning brick fireplaces. Create a homemade cleaning solution with equal parts vinegar and water. Use a soft-bristle brush to scrub the solution into the face of your brick and remove dirt, algae, and stains. Cleaning will protect brick from damage and boost your home’s curb appeal.

Drilling into brick or mortar requires the use of a masonry drill bit. Masonry drill bits appear similar to standard drill bits except for the leading tip of the bit. The tip has a bulky carbide arrow-shaped end slightly larger than the rest of the bit shaft. Standard or high-speed drill bits designed for making holes in wood or metal don’t have the ruggedness or design shape you need to drill into brick. They may not go through the brick at all, and if they do, they’re more likely to overheat, crack, or dull before you finish drilling.
