"Lenny was quick to come to look the job over. He was reasonable with his estimate and offered me a quick date to do the job. He and his helper showed up on time and worked straight through the day until they completed the job. They cleaned up after themselves and I would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone who needs masonry work done. Good all around job!"

"The F&B crew was great. They showed up when they were supposed to, worked hard all day, and did beautiful work. Jessy helped me find the perfect materials for my jobs. She made sure that every last detail was taken care of. She really went the extra mile to make sure that I was completely satisfied with their work. I would strongly recommend F&B Masonry to anyone looking to have stone work done at their home or business."

Customers say: Terrific value

"Randazzo Masonry did a fantastic job with the masonry on my backyard. I thought I was going to have to tear up a lot and fully replace it to “make it right”. But Stephen Randazzo walked me through what he would do to fix it and convinced me it was the right move. The job is complete and the outcome exceeded my expectations. Super professional, easy to communicate with. Got the job done quickly, cleanly and professionally. Would hire again."

"In 2010, we changed our beat-up deck to a new patio and used Napolitano Brothers for the upgrade. The patio came out better than expected and completed within 1 1/2 weeks (despite several days of rain storms). In 2016, we decided to expand our patio to include a bar/cooking area for grilling and a fire-pit to enjoy the cooler days. Without a doubt, we returned to Napolitano Brothers and they did a fabulous job. The work was seemless (as if we had the work done in 2010) and completed within about a week's time. Both jobs worked out perfectly and my wife and I highly recommend Napolitano Brothers. They have decades of experience and don't overbook jobs so they complete timely and with precision."

"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!"

"This was a professional job from start to finish. Channel drain project. Every aspect was done correctly. Slade explained, gave me my options, and then showed up as scheduled to do the job. He takes a lot of pride in his work. He used concrete to set the drains in place to make sure they will not shift over time. He was careful about the pitch of the drains. Left a neat work site. I have no doubt the installation will last a long time. Works very well. Worth every dollar. No need to look any further. 5 stars."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

While painting can certainly change the look of a chimney, you should think twice about giving your brick chimney the old landlord special.

Painting brick is porous, meaning it’s full of tiny holes that can soak up moisture. Those holes also allow it to dry, though. So, when you paint it, you trap any moisture inside, providing an opportunity for mold, mildew, and water damage.

Paint also shows wear faster than naked brick. This means that once you paint a brick surface, you’ll have to keep painting it to maintain a clean look. A paint job is also harder to undo on brick because of its porous nature. Once you paint it, it’s hard to go back without some serious power washing—another added cost.

Cobblestone fell out of favor with the advent of motor vehicles. Asphalt and concrete are both much smoother surfaces allowing for a smoother ride. Asphalt is also much cheaper, especially for driveways. However, we didn’t stop using cobblestone altogether, and you can still see it as a decorative option in both homes, in parks, and in pedestrianized areas of cities.

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.

Cobblestone can be made from many different types of stones but the most common ones, by far, are granite, basalt, limestone, and sandstone.  If you are laying a brick paver patio or other such project, the medium is different. It’s rare, but cobblestone can also be made from marble, slate, jasper, and other types of rock. Technically, you can make cobblestone from almost any type of rock, but if it is weather-resistant and stands the test of time is another question entirely.

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.
