"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

No, using a power sander on brick is not recommended because the force of the sander can destroy brick's fragile outer layer. Even using sandpaper on brick is discouraged because of the damage its abrasiveness can cause.

Yes, it is normal to see some minor hairline cracks in brick or mortar over time, often due to natural foundation settling. However, not all cracks are harmless. You should be concerned and contact a masonry professional for an inspection if you notice cracks that are getting wider or longer, or if new ones keep appearing. Other serious warning signs that can indicate significant structural or foundation damage include large vertical cracks (especially those that widen as they go up), stair-step cracks, L-shaped cracks, and deep horizontal cracks. Factors like temperature changes, moisture, and structural loading can also cause cracks to form or worsen.

Removing paint from brick can have both aesthetic and practical value. Some people prefer the timeless look of bare brick, making it worthwhile to remove old paint layers. Brick also lasts longer when unpainted, as paint traps moisture, causing the brick to deteriorate more quickly. If your brick walls are already in bad shape, stripping the paint off might do more harm than good.

You will repoint over a fraction of the old mortar, but you should scrape away 1/2 to 1 inch of mortar from the joints before repointing. Otherwise, the repointing is only masking the weakened mortar instead of actually replacing it, which could put your chimney at risk of bigger, more expensive damages later on.

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.
