"Joe and his crew were amazing from start to finish! I recently purchased a home that had a very unfinished yard and Masonry Hardscapes turned it into a dream come true with my new paver patio! As a first time solo homeowner, I was unsure of exactly what I wanted but Joe was extremely patient and knowledgeable and was very considerate of my budget with all his suggestions! The crew is extremely polite, quiet, and NEAT! All in all this was an amazing experience and I would HIGHLY recommend! I will definitely be calling Masonry Hardscapes for future projects!"

"I had a DOT Violation and needed the sidewalk replaced.

I did my homework before I went with Luigi.  He wasn't the most expensive nor was he the cheapest. 
His price was fair and he did the right thing.  He didn't try to take shortcuts or shortchange me.  I've seen my fair share of shady contractors in the past.

Luigi was there every step of the way.
He was courteous, professional and he took care of the work with pride.  It has been over 4.5 months since his work is completed.  My DOT violation has been dismissed and my concrete looks great.

I'm really happy that I chose him and will definitely look forward to hiring him for future concrete/masonry services.

"I love my backyard! John Starkie drew up the landscape design plans and kept me informed before, during and after planting. All work was completed in only 2 days including a repair to my patio pavers. He is passionate and educated about what he does and makes sure you know how to maintain your landscape. Johns crew removed a tree stump for free just to improve the look of the project. All work exceeded my expectation!!!"

Customers say: Super punctual

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Long Island Mason and Concrete, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, their team was professional, reliable, and incredibly efficient. They showed up on time, communicated clearly throughout the entire process, and completed the job faster than I expected without sacrificing quality. What really stood out was their attention to detail and craftsmanship. The finished work looks amazing, and you can tell they take real pride in what they do. On top of that, their pricing was very fair and competitive—great value for the level of service and quality you receive. If you’re looking for a masonry and concrete company that delivers excellent work, stays on schedule, and treats customers with respect, I highly recommend Long Island Mason and Concrete. I will definitely be using them again for future projects!"

"Carmine is a great, honest guy that did an amazing job repairing my foundation wall. I had an old window buried underground that was not properly sealed and leaking water to the basement. Carmine and his team carefully removed the old window and old bricks then properly sealed with concrete blocks and cement. He gave me a fantastic price and finished the job quickly. He also suggested to add an exterior French drain which he installed in a few hours as a secondary defense to remove water from the foundation. I highly recommend Carmine and plan to hire him again for some additional projects."

Customers say: Quality work

"Pete was very professional. He re pointed all the mortar on my slate walkway. He completed the job, on time and on estimate. He was very upfront about the mess it would create and warned me ahead of time to move cars etc. When the workers were done, they cleaned up. The work was done approx 6 months ago and shows no signs of poor workmanship."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Mortar and thinset both serve the same purpose—tile adhesion—but have different compositions and use-cases. Thinset is heatproof and presents a wide range of possibilities due to the added polymers. Mortar is typically used for bonding stones and brick. Thinset is rarely used outside, while mortar is rarely used inside.

It is possible, albeit a lot slower, to break up a rock using water. You would do this by freezing and thawing the water. You could create some initial holes or cracks in the rock, then pour water into the cracks or holes and allow them to freeze (so it's best to do this in winter or in colder climates). Since water expands when it freezes, this puts pressure on the inside of the rock and causes it to crack. You could continue to pour more water in and let it freeze to continue to break up the rock.

Yes, it is usually possible to repair a damaged brick mailbox. A professional brick mason or masonry contractor can perform the repairs. They can assess the damage, provide an estimate, and help you determine if the repair is worthwhile based on the mailbox's value and the extent of the damage. The repair process may involve sourcing replacement bricks and mortar. Damaged bricks can be cut out and replaced, or the mortar joints can be cut out and retucked. It's important to note that the new mortar may differ in color from the original. If the mailbox insert itself is damaged, it can typically be cut out and replaced as well. If your brick mailbox has been completely destroyed, you should check with your local building code enforcement office before rebuilding, as some areas do not allow brick mailboxes due to the potential hazard they pose to drivers.

A well-made brick wall can last up to 100 years if maintained properly, which includes regularly repairing the mortar every 30 to 50 years. If your brick wall is under 30 years old and is already showing signs of repair, it may be due to poor brickwork and installation. Extreme weather conditions can also accelerate a brick wall’s life span (especially the exterior of a house).

Choosing the right paint color for your brick house can be a daunting task. A great strategy is to find painted brick houses that you like and try to replicate the look by researching their colors or asking the homeowners for the specific paint color code.

If you're looking for specific ideas, several colors work well on brick. Different shades of white, such as off-white or cream-white, can create a modern, timeless, and classic look that is unlikely to go out of style. For a more contemporary aesthetic, you might consider a matte black tone. Other popular choices include gray, blue, and sage green.
