How long do bricks last?

• <div><p>Most classic red bricks can last 20 to 40 years without major repairs or renovations. If brick is maintained, it can easily last 100 to 150 years. When weighing <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/brick-vs-brick-veneer.htm">brick vs. brick veneer</a>, homeowners are often surprised to learn that even thin veneers can be expected to last 50 to 100 years. </p></div>

Q: Are brick houses more durable?

• <div><p>Modern brick homes have a brick facade over standard framing and sheathing, so the brick offers minimal added structural stability. A home with traditional brick construction is more durable than a stick-built home, as the double-layer brick walls and rebar resist higher lateral wind loads and support heavier loads up top, as well.</p></div>

Q: Do brick houses have framing?

• <div><p>Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don&rsquo;t have traditional framing. </p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between stone veneer and real stone?

• <div><p>Real stone is exactly what it sounds like: It&rsquo;s real stone sourced from the earth without additives. It is durable and unique, but it&rsquo;s difficult to work with because of its weight, challenge in sourcing, and high cost. Stone veneer mimics the look of real stone but is actually engineered with a mixture of Portland cement, natural minerals, and a colorant. While it&rsquo;s more affordable and easier to work with, it&rsquo;s less durable and may appear manufactured to the trained eye.</p></div>

Q: Can you cut patio stones with a circular saw?

• <div><p>Yes, you can cut patio stones with a circular saw. Similar to using an electric grinder, you will need to use a diamond blade as this is the most effective blade for cutting a material like stone. The stone must be wet when using a circular saw to ensure the cut is smooth.</p></div>

Very knowledgeable of the situation, prompt, hard working crew and absolutely solved my problem. This has been an ongoing issue for many, many years with no answers. I now do not use sandbags and I don't have to worry when it rains. Great to have peace of mind.

The crew were very professional and considerate. They took such great care of the plant, lawn, ivy trimming, pruning, mulching and so much more. I feel my plants, trees and the whole huge yard got a lot of love and care which made me so happy and appreciative.

Our 800 foot gravel driveway with many deep potholes, a ridge between the wheel tracks and weeds growing in the edges needed help—badly. We wanted more than just more stone. We wanted a driveway that would look good and last. We got three estimates from three places we knew nothing about and...

Jake came and added an extra gravel parking spot to our driveway. He is very knowledgeable and took the time to explain which materials and sizing would be best for our budget. Even though it was pretty cold out he was still very polite and got the job done quickly!

The third week of March I sent John Henehan an email and pictures of one of the drains and pop-up they installed last year. The winter freeze/thaw cycle had caused the drain to rise above the surface of the ground a bit in several places. John agreed that it may be necessary after an...

"My 450 ft long driveway badly needed to be regraded and needed a solution to the 2-3 seasonal springs that drained and washed and created deep ruts all winter and spring. TSS came and really studied the problems of the driveway, figured out a great multiple pipe drainage solution, regraded, dug out a boulder that was slowly working its way to the surface, installed the pipes. They used larger gravel around the pipes and a thick layer of gravel and dust over everything. Then rolled/compacted it all with a 3 ton roller. All of this in one day. They were very easy to work with, really listened to all of the unique issues the driveway has, carefully dug out peonies that were in the way of one pipe's end. They did a wonderful job and I'm hoping I can hire them to clear a couple of difficult hillsides befor winter too. First time in years that I can ask people to my house and not explain how to get up the driveway! "
