"Affordable pavers does a great job. I have hired them twice for two different houses and both times they provided great results. I would not hesitate to hire them for a third time if the need arises. I would highly recommend them for pavers or fire pits with gas hookups as they completed for me the second time around. Great work! Call Jose, you will not be disappointed!"

"Retained the services for some major repairs on our shopping mall fences. In the middle of the contract, we had a truck mow down a section of fencing. Tony immediately added this extra work not included in our contract without adding any further costs. Honest, personable and reliable is my recommendation for this company. Out of 3 estimates they were the lowest bid and able to do the work immediately verses the other two who had a 2 month wait."

"Mr Perez was great to work with. He showed me pictures of similar projects he had already completed to give me a better idea of what he would build which was great. Very well thought out project and good attention to detail. Crew showed up early in the mornings, and the whole 75ft retaining wall, fence, and gate was completed in 3 days! Very pleased with the quality"

"This company fulfilled its responsibility without actually completing the work, demonstrating the character of the business. I had a schedule of tasks to complete, but due to a medical issue, the project had to be cancelled. Tim took charge of my situation by processing my refund and offering a prayer, which helped me during a difficult time. I told Tim, as a Vietnam veteran, that I would welcome him into my foxhole anytime. Tim rose to the occasion, and for that, I want to thank him. Sincerely, John"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

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.

While painting can certainly change the look of a chimney, you should think twice about giving your brick chimney the old landlord special.

Painting brick is porous, meaning it’s full of tiny holes that can soak up moisture. Those holes also allow it to dry, though. So, when you paint it, you trap any moisture inside, providing an opportunity for mold, mildew, and water damage.

Paint also shows wear faster than naked brick. This means that once you paint a brick surface, you’ll have to keep painting it to maintain a clean look. A paint job is also harder to undo on brick because of its porous nature. Once you paint it, it’s hard to go back without some serious power washing—another added cost.

Fireclay is a type of clay but it is a type of clay that, because of its chemical composition, can be fired at a much higher temperature than other clays. This results in a denser and more heat-resistant final material. Because of the high percentage of a mineral called kaolin, fireclay sinks are smoother and more durable than other clay types.

When it comes to how to paint a brick chimney, consider that standard paint can seal in moisture and cause serious chimney problems. Instead, use a vapor-permeable sealant. You’ll first scrub and sand the chimney; then, you can patch any gaps with caulk and apply the sealant. We recommend hiring a pro for this job since it entails working on the roof, which comes with a lot of necessary safety precautions.

Whether you’re installing brick siding over a traditionally-framed home or you’re using genuine brick construction to build, the biggest downside of a brick house is the higher cost you’ll pay for the materials and labor. Real brick construction also means your home build will take longer, as it’s more time-consuming to construct brick walls than it is to frame out your home.
