"Alex responded promptly to my request for an estimate and was able to provide me with one immediately after evaluating the site and job we wanted done. I thought the price was fair and in line with the other estimates, his responsiveness was top notch and he was almost immediately available. Once we agreed on hiring him, he and his team were able to start within the same week. We had an excellent experience throughout the process and he was able to quickly and fairly address any changes to the original plans. The guys were always right on time, incredibly efficient, and left the work area very clean every day after they were done. We have spent more time the last two weeks on our back patio than we have on our deck in any given year. He gave us an estimate on a Tuesday, we hired him the following Monday, they started on Saturday, and finished on Wednesday. I wish I had more work for them to do, and would certainly recommend Alex Masonry."

"So glad we hired Bolani Masonry to install our bluestone patio. Antonio and his crew were wonderful! Their work was professional and artistic. They showed up on time, worked full days, did not interrupt the job for another one, and were great at communicating what to expect as well as collaborating on design. Plus, the whole crew was a pleasure to work with--friendly gentlemen with a terrific work ethic. All that, and a reasonable price."

"I called Luis and 2 other contactor's for a small but essential sheetrock job inside our home and demolish and installation of new stairs outside. Well let me tell you Luis came to my house shortly after I called him and he gave me an estimate right away. A few days later I spoke with him and ask him if he could come and perform the sheetrock job next Thursday or Friday because timing was critical. He assured me that he could accommodate me with no worries. Well, Thursday came and he patched up my ceiling wonderfully. He did a very nice job on the sheetrock ceiling ($700). The next day he set up a 3 man crew to demolish my stairs and create a masterpiece new steps. He told us you will be able to walk up these steps with your eyes closed. He adjusted for the drainage and used part of the old stairs as a retaining wall. When the new steps were finished they were stunning and my wife loves them (1,800). We will definitely use Luis and his crew again for our future projects. He is very good."

"Frank Moretti is highly professional, courteous and responsive to the customer's needs. It took less than a day for his super qualified team to plant magnificent landscaping on my property. They were meticulous and detail oriented - down to the last decorative stone they nestled between the gorgeous shrubs. I have hired Frank to do extensive masonry work on my driveway and walkways. He is reliable and trustworthy, answering all my phone calls and texts and scheduling work in a timely manner. I will rely on Moretti for all my outdoor landscaping and masonry needs - I need look no further for perfection and commitment."

"I had the pleasure of working with Manny on my blue stone patio, and I couldn't be happier with the results! Manny is everything you would want in a professional mason—punctual, knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and highly trustworthy. His skill and attention to detail truly show in the quality of his work. The patio turned out beautifully and I was so impressed that I’ve already asked him to do another project for me. If you're looking for someone who’s reliable and takes pride in their craft, Manny is the one to call"

"In just a few days, Moretti transformed our unsightly & broken bluestone walkway into a beautiful and welcoming paver entryway. Frank (the owner) worked with us to select colors that complemented our home's existing stone, and to design a warm and elegant layout. My wife and I loved how it came out and we would certainly use his team again for other asphalt, stonework and landscaping projects."

"i have done a lot of work in my house with other contractors, the experience with rr paving is the best i ever experienced, they started and they finished exactly the way they told me, no surprises, they went way above their way to accommodate me.

Masonry questions, answered by experts

The best tool for drilling into brick or mortar is a rotary hammer drill which is a large hammer drill with low rotation speed and high torque. Regular drills with a hammer function are also excellent tools for drilling into brick when the diameter of the hole is 1/2 inch or less. It might be possible to drill into brick with a standard drill if you’re only drilling a very small hole, but note that masonry work will put a lot of wear on a standard drill, and the tool may not be strong enough to get through brick.

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.

When painting brick, each application method has distinct advantages and disadvantages. Spraying is significantly faster but may not penetrate deeply beyond the surface layer. Rolling is effective for working paint into the brick's texture but can be less effective on mortar joints. If you opt for a roller, choose a thick nap of at least a half-inch to ensure paint gets into all the crevices for even coverage. Using a brush is generally not recommended as it is very time-consuming and provides poor surface penetration. Ultimately, a combination of spraying followed by back-rolling is often the best strategy for a durable and even finish.

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.

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.
