"We hired The Masonry Doctor to repair our chimney and are highly satisfied with the completed work. Mr Kanser is a super personable, talented, experienced worker. He gave us a very fair estimate and finished the job under the quoted price. When he left, the site was completely clean with no debris or damage. We definitely recommend The Masonry Doctor for any masonry work and will hire him again for our next project."
"Kevin Koval (President of company) arrived for scheduled initial site review on time (8/29/13). He looked over damage to wall, listened to my concerns, and took photos of site. He discussed some options and said he needed to consult with his mason contractor before he would be able to provide an estimate of repair costs. He said that once mason had chance to review site, I would be contacted with an estimate of cost and time to complete repair. It took several weeks for Mason, Nick Flannery, to call me to schedule his visit for site review. After Mason's site review, it took another few weeks for Kevin to get back to me with cost estimate, $3,200.00, which was $500.00 lower than another company's estimate. I accepted estimate and was told that once he could make arrangements with mason, they would contact me with a schedule for starting work. Nick Flannery arrived the day prior to start day to drop off equipment and supplies. Nick arrived promptly, and excavator operator arrived shortly afterward to begin work. Excavation was completed on first day, and Nick began removing damaged block wall once a reinforcing system had been installed to support upper floor while wall was being repaired. I was very impressed with the level of professionalism Nick displayed while working. but, he was also willing to explain what he was doing, and why, when ever I had any questions. It took three days to complete all the repairs to wall. I was very satisfied with the results. I was very satisfied with the results of the overall project and would not hesitate to call either Adirondack Basement Systems or Nick Flannery in the future for any basement or masonry projects I may have.

A chimney cleaning brick or log can help loosen creosote between professional chimney cleaning appointments. Although they can help keep your chimney cleaner, they are not a substitute for chimney sweeping and are not meant to be used regularly.
Chimney mortar typically lasts 20 to 30 years, depending on its quality, local weather conditions, and maintenance. Over time, exposure to moisture, freezing, and thawing cycles can cause mortar to deteriorate, leading to cracks and gaps. Regular inspections and timely repairs, such as repointing or tuckpointing, can extend the lifespan of chimney mortar by ensuring the structure's integrity.
Choose from an abundance of natural and synthetic options when perfecting your hardscape design. Stone veneer costs a bit less, holds up against the tests of time and weather, and also works best in curves and complex walls.
Natural stone, however, provides an organic look to a lawn while providing just as much strength as veneer. Don't forget you can chat with your mason about other common wall materials like brick, cinderblock, and concrete.
The best tool for drilling into brick or mortar is a rotary hammer drill which is a large hammer drill with low rotation speed and high torque. Regular drills with a hammer function are also excellent tools for drilling into brick when the diameter of the hole is 1/2 inch or less. It might be possible to drill into brick with a standard drill if you’re only drilling a very small hole, but note that masonry work will put a lot of wear on a standard drill, and the tool may not be strong enough to get through brick.
Brick and stone are durable, low-maintenance materials that offer excellent insulation, aesthetic appeal, and can increase property value.
