"FANTASTIC! Our wooden deck just wasn’t holding up even though it was well maintained. We met Sergio who listened to our needs and utilized his experience to design what we wanted. Shawn put together a proposal that was more than fair and we went forward with the project. Needless to say they exceed our expectations! The work was done on time, the crew was professional and efficient, and the finished product was well worth the expense. If you’re looking for a Five Star Company to do your concrete right, for a fair price, call Shawn at McCune Company LLC! Thank you Shawn & Sergio!!"

"My porch was the main problem the brick literally had started cracking and falling out. The garage had very large openings on both sides of the door. I so afraid critters were going to build nest. Buckeye Masonry repaired my dwelling, in a very timely manner. Very knowledgeable, courteous and went above and beyond I’d what I expected. I’m very happy with the outcome of my house. I wish I had before pictures, I don’t, but I do have some after pictures."

"Had Betts Structural Engineering come and look at the foundation of a house we were in contract on. Josh came out and was professional and informative. He informed us the foundation was failing and explained what needed to be done. He throughly explained everything and told us how we could do it ourselves for much cheaper than a contractor could do it. In the end he saved us from a long and expensive process if we proceeded with the house."

Customers say: True professional

"The project went wonderfully. In June of 2024, Hegedus Hardscapes removed an old 1970’s porch, and installed a beautiful, new Unilock porch with adequate drainage, using adequate pitch and new pipes. The overall look is exceptional, like a European grotto, with a perimeter edged in sandstone. Hegedus Hardscapes is a family business, whose members all work hard, and to a high standard. If you are a picky customer and find it hard to locate an outdoor contractor with standards as high as yours, then, look no further; Hegedus Hardscapes is the company for you!"

"Armondo and his crew replaced two landscaped areas in and around the driveway with concrete. We are extremely pleased with their work and the result. It is exactly what we wanted. If we ever need concrete again we will be calling them."

"The techs did a great job, and once I alerted them to my flower beds directly in front of the porch to be lifted, were very careful not to damage my emerging hostas. I'd definitely recommend Acculevel and already have to my sister for her patio/parking spot."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

No, you shouldn’t lay bricks directly on dirt. While it might seem like a shortcut, it leads to a patio that shifts, sinks, and becomes a maintenance headache. Dirt expands, contracts, and erodes—none of which mix well with long-term stability. To build something that lasts, excavate the topsoil, compact a layer of crushed gravel, and add a coarse sand-setting bed. This layered base gives your bricks proper support, allows drainage, and helps block weeds from creeping through. Cutting corners here just means you’ll spend more time—and money—repairing your brick patio later.

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.

You should clean your home’s brick once per year. This applies to exterior brick, but also to cleaning brick fireplaces. Create a homemade cleaning solution with equal parts vinegar and water. Use a soft-bristle brush to scrub the solution into the face of your brick and remove dirt, algae, and stains. Cleaning will protect brick from damage and boost your home’s curb appeal.

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.

Stone houses used to be much more practical, but with the advent of stronger and cheaper materials like concrete, they aren’t seen as much anymore. There are some parts of the world where it makes sense to build with stone, and they are usually next to a stone quarry. Stone is, however, very weather-resistant, which is why many homes near the sea and on mountains are still built with local stone.
