"From the first quote to the final walkthrough, everything was professional and straightforward. The owner, Joe Haumann, listened carefully to what I wanted, provided clear options, and gave a fair, detailed estimate with no hidden surprises. The crew showed up on time every day, worked efficiently, and treated my property with real respect—keeping the site clean and minimizing any disruption. Their craftsmanship is top-notch: the brick and stone work is precise, beautiful, and built to last. You can tell they take pride in what they do. They finished the project right on schedule, communicated clearly throughout, and even handled a couple of small adjustments without any hassle or extra cost. If you’re looking for reliable, skilled masons who deliver high-quality results and great customer service, I highly recommend Brick-Tec. I’ll definitely be calling them again for any future work! Thanks again to the whole team—you guys rock!"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can do German schmear on stone. You can account for the more textured and rough surface of stone by using a large paintbrush instead of a putty knife. A brush allows you to drag mortar across the stone to get it into all the cracks and crevices. However, a brush will cover more of the surface, so you may need a wet sponge to scrub excess mortar and expose more of your stone.

It’s called cobblestone because it’s made of stones that are “cobbed” together. A cob is a term that refers to rounded lumps. Originally, cobblestone streets were made from pebbles and stones gathered from riverbeds that had been rounded over time by the passage of water. The term has nothing to do with a cobbler, which is the term for someone who makes and fixes shoes.

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.

A mason lays brick or stone together, sometimes with mortar in between the bricks and stones, and sometimes without mortar, also called a dry-stack or surface bonding. Examples of work masons do include:

  • Brick, stone, or cement block houses and buildings

  • Freestanding stone or brick walls

  • Chimneys with wood-burning fireplaces

  • Cement block basement or crawl space walls

Yes, depending on the type of pavers you have, you may need a specific type of sealant. For example, concrete pavers will bond differently than clay pavers or faux stone pavers and will demand a different type of sealer. If you’re unsure of the material and what type of sealant you need, you can contact the company that laid your pavers down for you.
