"My first experience with masonry repair, so all I can tell you is that the end result of filling holes and skim-coating of the wall base in my garage looks very nice. Randy and his crew were professional and easy to talk to, answering all my questions. They were very considerate of surrounding areas, including the driveway. I made an extra request as they were getting ready to leave and Randy and the crew completed my request with no problems/issues (although it was a Saturday and I'm sure they wanted to start their weekends)."

"Other companies quoted me much higher rates and one completely failed to get the job done. MMT were complete professionals, a pleasure to deal with, prompt, and skilled. Iâ ll be relying on them for all chimney and masonry projects and would recommend them to anyone."

"Although we had quite a long wait because he was on vacation, we were very impressed with the engineer who came to our home to determine what needed to be done and put together our quote. Unfortunately, that was the last good impression we had and the last time we saw an actual employee of Adirondack Basement. 

Keeping in mind that this job didn't involve installing a brand new egress window, but rather replacing an existing one and simply deepening the outside window well, we were a bit shocked at the pricing. Given that we were paying a "Cadillac" price we were surprised to receive "Chevy" level service from a subcontractor rather than an Adirondack Basement employee.   We were particularly disappointed that neither the engineer nor any other Adirondack Basement employee visited the site during or after the installation to confirm that it was done according to the engineer's specs. In fact, the subcontractor made a change to the specs to save time (and presumably money for himself) and the engineer never knew or approved that change.

While we understood that Adirondack Basement would not "finish" the window trim etc and we were comfortable doing that ourselves, we were again disappointed that the subcontractor left the window well completely uninsulated and essentially open to the elements. Only after we pressed him, did he grudgingly add a can of spray insulation. 

We expressed our disappointment to Adirondack Basement and were given a modest price concession but we feel that the price we paid still far exceeded the quality of the services provided. "

"Eldi has now completed two different projects at my home. A large, stone paver project around a pool and a landscape stone wall across my front yard. They were very responsive to our messages and arrived at the agreed time. Pricing was fair as well. Work looks great. I will definitely hire again"

"I can?t thank Ali?s Landscaping & Property Services enough for the amazing job they did with my junk removal. As an elderly person, the whole process felt overwhelming, but Ali made everything so easy and stress-free from start to finish. They were hardworking, respectful, and handled everything quickly and carefully. They showed up on time, worked incredibly hard, and made sure I didn?t have to lift a finger. It?s hard to find people these days who truly care about helping others, but you can tell they genuinely care about their customers. My property looks so much better now, and I?m beyond grateful for their help. I highly recommend Ali?s Landscaping & Property Services to anyone needing junk removal or property services done right!"

Masonry FAQs, answered by experts

You can use a regular drill to make pilot holes for gutter brackets in the wooden fascia board around the top of your house, but it’s not the best tool for brick. Instead, you’ll need a heavy-duty power tool like a hammer drill with a carbide tip bit.

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.

Not all cracks in brick indicate foundation problems. For instance, small hairline cracks can occur as a new construction settles. However, larger cracks are often a sign of a more severe issue. Indicators of a potential foundation problem include long horizontal cracks, "stair-step" cracks, vertical cracks that appear indoors, or any crack that widens at the top. Other signs of structural damage to look for are uneven floors and doors or windows that stick. These issues could be caused by problems with the soil beneath the home or an overgrown tree.

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.

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.
