"Excellent. Mike was responsive, prompt, and understood the scope of the project. I believe that his price was reasonable. I had contacted several masons in addition to Mike. Some never called me back, one told me that he was booked for several months out, and another drove to the property & inspected the issue and then never sent me a quote. I was very pleased with Mike's work and his understanding of my needs. His crew even worked on the weekend to complete the job. The job was significant enough to span several days."

"Kevin upgraded the brick steps of my South Philadelphia rowhouse by installing bluestone treads and landings. He did a terrific job using quality materials and tools, thoroughly cleaned up afterwards, was reliable and communicative, and charged a reasonable price for a challenging job. I highly recommend KMJ Masonry and would not hesitate to call on them again."

"We could not be more pleased with the work of M&M Landscaping. Malecas (owner) was so easy to work with through the entire process. He showed up for an estimate took measurements, and actually followed up on his estimate. A rare occurrence being we had roughly 6 other contractors come out for estimates with a total of two getting me an actual estimate for the project. Once the project started M&M was punctual, and professional. Malecas, by far, the easiest contractor to work with and his responsiveness deserves a better grade than highest I could give him (A). The patio looks incredible which is a testament to Malecas and his team's attention to detail and craftsmanship. The work site was clean during the job and after hours they left it as clean as it was before they arrived. We were trying to work existing materials into new materials but the difference between old and new was too noticeable for us. M&M was patient while we looked at new pavers and wanted us to find what would make the project look great. We did, and they made it pop. I am so pleased at our decision, their craftsmanship, and our backyard. I can not recommend M&M Landscaping highly enough. Malecas, please don't get too busy that you forget about the other projects we discussed. Great work! Rainy day with the pictures, but wet or dry looks great."

"Contacted Color Stamp Concrete to request an estimate.  They worked around my schedule to meet with me and not only provided me an estimate but also design recommendations.  Their estimate was very reasonable and as i have done business with this company for my first patio with no issues i decided to use them again.  Upon receipt of my permits they were able to begin work within 3 days for setup and including one day for bad weather was able to pour and stamp within 3 days.  They knew all the requirements and specifications for a hot tub installation and was included in the estimate and was applied flawlessly.  Next day first coat of sealant was applied.  At the end of that day Color Samp Concrete met with me to finalize payments and upon their review of the patio they decided that another coat of sealant was required and returned the next day to apply.  Was very impressed with the work and with how well it matched my previous patio.  Fred Bloss, whom i worked with for the entire project was very responsive and informative through all steps of the process.  I will recommend Color Stamp Concrete to my friends and colleagues and will use them again for my future concrete needs."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Yes, masonry is more expensive than concrete because the labor is much more involved. With masonry, your expert will build your project from the ground up, one piece at a time, ensuring they use the proper amount of mortar or grout during construction and keeping the project level or plumb. Pouring concrete can also be labor-intensive, but it’s a bit less involved. It requires building a mold, pouring the concrete, and letting it cure. The less intensive labor makes concrete a more affordable option in most cases.

Mortar, or masonry mortar, is mainly used in joints and as parging for stone, brick, or cement construction. Stucco is primarily a surface material used as wall coverings. For maintenance, masonry will need repointing or replacing as damage or land shifting occurs, whereas stucco will need patching or refinishing as it tends to crack over time along with other types of wear-and-tear.

Yes, concrete is significantly stronger than masonry, especially if the concrete pour includes reinforcements, like steel rebar. Concrete is a uniform material that can withstand compression, sheer force, and tensile force as long as it’s reinforced. Masonry involves the use of mortar or grout to connect individual building materials, like brick, stone, or tile. Mortar and grout are also reasonably strong and resist compression well, but they don’t come close to the strength of poured concrete.

A traditional German schmear uses mortar, making it unsuitable for adherence to painted surfaces. Professionals recommend removing any existing paint before applying mortar. However, you can rough up the painted surface and clean it to test if the mortar will stick. Remember that the underlying paint's texture and color may affect the schmear's final appearance—so starting with a bare brick wall will ensure the ideal finish.

In most cases, painting your brick house is a fine idea that can open up new aesthetic possibilities. However, the paint can slightly shorten the life span of brick, especially if moisture gets trapped underneath the paint layer. Once you paint, you’ll have to keep up with maintenance to avoid flaking and blisters.
