"Mr. Higgins is professional, respectful, honest and efficient. He provided me an honest assessment of my current chimney situation with multiple options to repair and improve the situation. My family and I have been pleased with all the additional services such as fall/spring clean up, masonry work etc. Mr Higgins communicates to his customers and is easy to get ahold of. He returns phone calls promptly and is very reasonable. I recommend this company to anyone for household needs."

"Dan is personable, friendly and professional. He came on time. When he said he would, and apologized for having to reschedule for 2 days later due to the weather, which of course was not his fault! He did a great job repairing my chimney and cleaned up after himself. The chimney looks great. I will definitely call him the next time I need work done. He also does power washing! I highly recommend Clark Masonry!"

"It was a two week project. Both walls were torn down and a lot of dirt and sand was removed and relocated to even out a slope in my yard. The walls were reconfigured and replaced with block walls. The larger wall was reconfigured to allow for a new patio to be built on top of it. New block steps were installed going up the hill adjacent to the wall. A tremedous amount of work was done in very hot weather. Everyone was pleasant and professional and a lot of time was spent on making sure it was right. We are very happy with the end result and it looks beautiful. The patio adds a lot extra outdoor space and the regraded yard makes it more usable."

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had Adirondack Basement Systems come to our home to lift our foundation, and we could not have been happier with the experience. Mikey, the foreman, and Justin, the installer, were absolutely fabulous from start to finish. Both were professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly efficient. They took the time to make sure the job was done right, kept us informed throughout the process, and made what could have been a stressful home repair feel completely manageable. It is so refreshing to have a crew come into your home who clearly takes pride in their work and also genuinely cares about the customer experience. Mikey and Justin represented Adirondack Basement Systems exceptionally well. We would absolutely recommend both of them, as well as Adirondack Basement Systems, to anyone needing foundation or basement work. Five stars all around. Thank you, Mikey and Justin, for such a positive experience!"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Europe is a continent made of many individual countries with a history of city life. In these cities, dirt roads were unsanitary and often shifted. The Ancient Romans started laying cobblestone streets in the 3rd century, which became an iconic feature of European cities. The durable and practical paving material proved to be extremely weather-resistant.

Do not use super glue to hang lights on brick unless you want your lights up year-round. Hot glue is a better choice because it’s easily removable with a small amount of rubbing alcohol. Super glue is very hard to remove, and you could tear off parts of the brick in the removal process.

Drilling into brick or mortar requires the use of a masonry drill bit. Masonry drill bits appear similar to standard drill bits except for the leading tip of the bit. The tip has a bulky carbide arrow-shaped end slightly larger than the rest of the bit shaft. Standard or high-speed drill bits designed for making holes in wood or metal don’t have the ruggedness or design shape you need to drill into brick. They may not go through the brick at all, and if they do, they’re more likely to overheat, crack, or dull before you finish drilling.

To stain brick, you should use a product specifically formulated for brick, concrete, or other masonry surfaces. These stains are designed to penetrate the porous surface of the brick and bond with it. This is different from paint, which sits on the surface and is prone to peeling, flaking, and trapping moisture that can cause damage. Water-based brick stains are often recommended because they are easy to apply, even for DIYers, and they allow the brick to breathe. Avoid using regular paint on brick, as it will not adhere properly and can lead to future maintenance problems.

Spalling brick is not uncommon, but it does indicate a serious issue. It can be caused by water damage, an intense freeze-thaw cycle, or something else. Painted bricks can be susceptible to spalling, as the paint doesn’t allow the porous material of the brick to breathe, which can trap moisture. Spalling should always be addressed immediately before more serious structural damage occurs.
