"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. "

"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

Brick houses can last at least 100 years with minimal maintenance. With regular care and attention, including mortar repointing, brick houses can last 500 years or more.

Two types of masonry are veneer masonry and solid masonry. Veneer masonry is thin brick or stone material attached to the face of a building. With veneer masonry, the walls support the weight of the masonry products rather than the masonry being built on a concrete footing. Solid masonry is a wall or other brick or stone structure built on a concrete footing, and the masonry supports itself.

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.

Initially, brick staining is not cheaper than painting. However, while it has a higher up-front cost, it may be more cost-effective in the long run. Brick stain can last for 20 years or longer, compared to paint, which usually starts to peel away in three to five years.

A fireplace is, by definition, an enclosed space where you burn wood or other fuel for the purpose of generating light and heat. A firepit burns wood and is much less expensive to build, but they aren’t technically a fireplace as it isn’t enclosed. An outdoor oven—commonly outdoor brick pizza ovens—often uses wood as fuel, but its primary purpose is to cook food, and you’d rarely just burn wood inside them for warmth or aesthetic reasons.
