"Long Hill Masonry renovated our front and rear stoops, which after 65 years were slowly falling apart. My husband and I are Thrilled with how they turned out. Within 2 days of our call, Joe Tavella (Owner) came to our home to give us an estimate. We explained what our ideas were and Joe even added further suggestions to improving the design. Joe, through his expertise and knowledge was able to do what 3 other contractors told us they couldn't do. After knowing this and with a fair quote, we asked Joe when can he start the job. The job was then completed in a very timely manner (in 1 day). Joe and his team were neat reliable, efficient, meticulous and took real pride to producing top quality work. End result...Perfection at it's Best! Beautiful stoops to last a Lifetime! Without hesitation we look forward to having Long Hill Masonry do another project for us. Would highly recommend."

"Hands down the best service I received in a long time. Knowledgeable, Punctual and Reasonable are a few qualities that come to mind. Misael fixed my front steps and also refilled my existing pavers with the right sand that the prior contractor did not do. His attention to detail is on point. He did an excellent job of cleaning up after completing his work, which to me is the biggest selling point for myself. Would highly highly recommend him for your next job!"

Customers say: Terrific value

"Jack Brady and his amazing crew , are the most efficient, hardworking perfectionists that We have hired in 30 yrs! Amazing job, finished in one week on a 7400 square foot basement, consisting of multiple â add onâ foundations. We purchased this home with a dingy, unfinished basement, that was a mess. Under Jackâ s expertise, this crew went above and beyond, examining issues that were outside their projectâ for structure, safety and aesthetic issues. Perfectly neat and clean, â their work and the transformation that resulted, were simply unbelievable! Jack is a caring and concerned contractor, that made sure everything was beyond perfect, added extras and did a report of all items that needed looking into by other professionals, ie, boilers, water heater , oil and gas tanks, plumbing issues, even electric. He is knowledgeable in basically every area of construction and subcontractor issues. I cannot tell you how thrilled we are! ( He even found a fault in an original wall of an old foundation, and had it reinforced, grinders down and properly sealed.. at least 3 different coats of hydrolic cement and seals plus waterproof painting)! Absolutely amazing and a warm, concerned personality, a â helluva guyâ , as we have embraced Jack Brady as a friend. The price was beyond reasonable, and we are so thankful to have chosen â Basement Manâ . You want to chose him to do this type of projectâ I cannot imagine there is ANYONE better to do such amazing and particular work. If I could give 100 stars, I would! Best of the Bestest!"

"Hired to remove concrete slab + grade the land + add top soil and seed Slade is the best! From start to finish he provided us with the best advice for the job and did everything he promised in on time without failure. The price was excellent compared to others. He went above and beyond by digging out old tree roots that was not a part of the scope of work... He takes pride in his work and therefore for him it was a matter of doing it correctly. At the end we were extremely happy with the results. Highly recommended."

"Eddie was great to work with! We had a limited time frame to adhere to town inspections and Eddie and his team knew exactly what we needed and quickly got the job done. The results were great and even the inspector acknowledged the impressive repair. They were able to put a knocked out garage wall back on the foundation and repair the interior dry wall. I would recommend this company for any professional contract work due to their reasonable price, ease to work with and quality of work."

"We are SO happy with Sal and his team. Sal’s price was very reasonable and he communicated with us from start to finish. His team was on time and stayed late each day until the project was completed. Either Sal, his son, or his wife was on site each day. After starting, we asked Sal if he could take down a tree for us and his guys did it right away, leaving no sign of the stump. They did an amazing clean-up when the project was completed - even hauling away clutter and mess that was there before they started! They also returned days after the project was completed to put down grass seed. We LOVE our new patio, walkways, and pool deck - the pavers look beautiful!! We’ve already asked Sal to come back and give us an estimate on masonry work in the front yard!"

"Mr. Torres was great with all the work we had done. We went to his office where we picked out the color stones for our brick steps and paver walkways. He was extremely helpful with suggestions and patterns. In the middle of the job I asked for an estimate for the side of our house for a walkway and he was able to do that as well as the initial work. The price was very fair and we were very happy with it, we had another estimate for the work and it was astronomical. I would definitely recommend this company and I will be going back to him for future work."

"I needed some bricks replaced on the exterior cellar stairs of my home. I also needed a seal coating on my driveway (which was installed last year - poorly - by another company). James, as well as his crew, was a pleasure to work with, start to finish! My driveway looks great, and my stairs are now safe. I would definitely hire them again!"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

When painting brick, each application method has pros and cons. Spraying is much faster but may not penetrate the porous surface of the bricks. Rolling is effective for getting paint into the bricks but doesn't work as well on the mortar. Brushing is very time-consuming and also won't penetrate beyond the surface. For the best results, a combination of spraying and rolling is often recommended. If you use a roller, choose a thick option (at least a half-inch) and ensure the paint gets into all the crevices for even coverage.

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.

Always work with licensed and certified masons in your area when installing a stone wall or even a stone veneer. Just like all home designers, they should provide an impressive portfolio and offer a free estimate for the project. Pick the pro who fits your budget and schedule and, most importantly, helps you realize your landscape vision.

Yes, it is essential to prime or seal a brick fireplace before painting. Brick is a porous and highly absorbent material, so without a primer, paint can seep into the surface, resulting in uneven coverage and allowing the natural brick color to show through. To avoid this, apply one or two coats of a masonry primer. The primer will seal the brick and provide a smooth, uniform layer for the paint to adhere to. Ensure the primer is completely dry before applying the topcoat of paint.

Limewash can be removed from brick, but the method of removal will depend on how long the limewash has been on the brick. If the limewash has fully dried—which happens after about five days—you’ll need to use a diluted muriatic acid mixture to remove it. If there are multiple coats of limewash, you may need to apply the acid mixture several times to fully remove it from the brick.
