"Masonry is an art and skill that is just timeless. And the guys at SF Restoration are masters at this craft. We have a 98 year old home with an all brick exterior that had never been tuckpointed or power washed. Jason and Billy came out and powerwashed it first and they were able to get the original brick color back. Then our 3 main gentlemen: Justin, Nigel, and Rylan did the tuckpointing. They did an amazing job! I can't say enough about these guys. Plus they were very friendly and professional. If you need tuckpointing, etc done on your house, hire SF Restoration! They are the best!"

"I needed a concrete slab poured and finished with short notice and specific needs. B&G answered the call and out performed all of my expectations. The finish on the concrete floor in particular was impressive to say the least. I couldn’t be happier with the finished product and the professionalism exhibited during the process was a breath of fresh air —pleasant, honest, confident and personable. Experiences like this renew my faith in America. Thank you Bobby, Glenn and crew."

"My attic was lacking in insulation and my crawl space was a mess. Reed’s worked and fixed both. Workers were wonderful and polite to answer all my questions I am so thankful for the fact that they came and helped me. I really don’t know what I would have done without their help. I would recommend them to everyone that has these problems. And I have recommended them to friends and family. My electric bill greatly reduced. Thank you so much thank you thank you"

Masonry FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can limewash surfaces other than brick. Plaster, stone, stucco, and concrete can all also be limewashed. Any porous surface that will absorb the wash is a good candidate for limewash, although it won’t help much with waterproofing. If you choose to limewash over paint, you’ll need to prep before applying it to avoid a powdery, chalky finish. Shiny surfaces like metal or glass can’t absorb limewash, so it’s not suited for these.

Mortar, or masonry mortar, is mainly used in joints and as parging for stone, brick, or cement construction. Stucco is primarily a surface material used as wall coverings. For maintenance, masonry will need repointing or replacing as damage or land shifting occurs, whereas stucco will need patching or refinishing as it tends to crack over time along with other types of wear-and-tear.

A mason lays brick or stone together, sometimes with mortar in between the bricks and stones, and sometimes without mortar, also called a dry-stack or surface bonding. Examples of work masons do include:

  • Brick, stone, or cement block houses and buildings

  • Freestanding stone or brick walls

  • Chimneys with wood-burning fireplaces

  • Cement block basement or crawl space walls

You should use cement for a chimney crown. The purpose of the chimney crown is to protect the mortar below from water damage and the effects of weather. For this reason, chimney crowns should only be made using cement. When repairing a crown, use caulks and sealants designed for cement repair rather than mortar repair.

You will repoint over a fraction of the old mortar, but you should scrape away 1/2 to 1 inch of mortar from the joints before repointing. Otherwise, the repointing is only masking the weakened mortar instead of actually replacing it, which could put your chimney at risk of bigger, more expensive damages later on.
