"It has been over a year since Tommy completely transformed our back yard. He rebuilt and added to a huge 75' x 10' retaining wall, then put in a gorgeous paver patio, front steps, and a walking path. Finally he stuccoed the entire lower level of our house. This was a massive project that he and his crew completed ahead of schedule. Tommy and his crew were always on time and worked diligently all day long, no matter how terrible the weather was. We trusted him with all his suggestions and advice, and he proved to be extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of this multi-faceted project. The end result of his hard work exceeded our very high expectations. If you are looking for someone who provides top-notch work and is a pleasure to deal with every day, choose Masonry by Tommy based in Lodi, NJ. They will leave you as impressed and grateful as we are!"

"This was a big job The project took around 10 days. At first we were going to just do the front steps but were talked into doing the pathway as well. We are glad we did. We also had him re-point and repair the brick masonry along the base of the house. The final look is beautiful. Very professional job. Masonry work is top-notch."

"Thiago and his crew were absolutely amazing. From the first meeting through completion Thiago was a professional and a gentleman. Gave great suggestions and was open to our ideas as well. His quote was substantially lower than others we received and the work was top notch. His crew started when he said they would and did not miss a day until the job was complete. We are completely satisfied and would highly recommend Classical Pavers. I can confirm that all the positive reviews his company receives online are accurate. Thanks Thiago!"

"I recently hired Champion Construction to repair my damaged brick mailbox, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. From the beginning, Arjan was professional, responsive, and easy to work with. He came out promptly to assess the damage, gave me a fair and transparent quote, and scheduled the repair quickly. The quality of the work was excellent. Arjan and his team did a fantastic job! The repair was done efficiently, and they left the area clean and tidy afterward. It’s refreshing to work with a company that takes pride in their craftsmanship and values customer satisfaction. If you’re looking for dependable masonry work, I highly recommend Champion Construction. Thank you, Arjan, for a job well done!"

"From the same day estimate, to the scheduling in one week, to the completion everyone was a complete professional and gentleman. After talking with them is was obvious how honest and hard working they were. They actually touched up a couple if other (masonry) spots for me for no additional charge, to which I tipped them appreciatively. I highly recommend Gold Medal."

"I was pleased with the work on my tall retaining wall. The stucco was in poor condition and needed replacement. First Choice removed the old stucco and repaired the wall with new mesh and stucco. They were thorough and worked hard to finish in a week. I got regular videos on the progress each day. The site was immaculate when they were done and my wall was beautiful again."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, staining a brick home can increase a home’s value, assuming your pro does a good job and you keep up with maintenance tasks. Staining brick is a much better way to increase a home’s value than painting brick, as the latter can cause chipping, warping, and bubbling. Brick stain, on the other hand, gets absorbed by the surface, so it can still breathe. 

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 you want to make your home eco-friendly, enjoy low maintenance, and love the fact that its looks will take people’s breath away (and not because they were trying to blow your house down), then a modern brick home is right for you. You can hire a mason to get the building process started for your brick home.

But if you’re not fond of the color and don’t want to deal with the process of repointing or other repairs, consider going with vinyl or wood. These materials offer a lower cost. While they tend to require more maintenance, they don’t cost nearly the same as exterior brick house repair.

You should generally drill into the mortar joints when installing shutters on brick. Mortar is softer, which makes drilling easier and puts less strain on your tools. It also lowers the risk of cracking a brick—something that’s a lot harder to fix. Mortar holds fasteners well enough for standard shutters, and if you ever need to patch the holes later, it’s a much simpler job than dealing with damaged brick. Just keep in mind that if your mortar joints are too thin or the hardware calls for brick anchoring, you'll need to check the manufacturer’s recommendations and adjust accordingly.
