"I recently purchased a home in bad need of tuckpointing.  When calling for quotes, Pat was the only one of four masons that I called who came out promptly for a quote.  His quote was reasonable, though not the lowest.  Because of the rainy spring, Pat was delayed from working on my home past his original estimated start date.  When he was able to start the work, however, the job turned out to be worse than he expected.  He had quoted me with the belief that about 10 -15 bricks would need to be removed.  It turned out to be about 40 bricks were removed. However, he repaired it correctly, and only asked if I could reimburse him for the extra materials - no extra labor charge, even though the scope of the repair had about tripled.  He also made suggestions of things I could do to help maintain chimney so problem did not reoccur.  He and his helper were polite and neat.  I would easily hire him again if I needed more masonry work."

"Went great. We asked for some changes to patio shape and Dan did just as we asked. He used wall pavers that he removed from previous retaining walls to repair and add to a retaining wall behind the garage. The patio travertine is gorgeous and the granite edging was well done. His work was done well, quickly and neatly. Repairs were made to lawn from heavy equipment used and it came in beautifully. He gave us great instructions which we followed 😀. He included plans for an adjacent deck which we will be using in the spring. He and his crew worked really hard. Thanks, Dan!"

"They did a great job on the foundation repair adding 8 push piers and successfully moving the foundation back into place. However, in their rush they put a hole in the back of my house with the backhoe and it took them almost 6 months to repair and repaint the damage. I still recommend them since they were the only ones with the correct foundation fix."

"Overall the work quality was good, but they made several mistakes, one being a rather spectacular aesthetic mistake, and the owner of the company refused to take responsibility for fixing these mistakes and wanted more money to fix it. A couple weeks later some of the bricks are falling offâ we will see if they come to fix itâ ¦"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Spalling brick is not uncommon, but it does indicate a serious issue. It can be caused by water damage, an intense freeze-thaw cycle, or something else. Painted bricks can be susceptible to spalling, as the paint doesn’t allow the porous material of the brick to breathe, which can trap moisture. Spalling should always be addressed immediately before more serious structural damage occurs.

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’t have traditional framing.

Dekton is worth the money for homeowners who want a nonporous countertop that resists heat, stains, water, scratches, and UV damage. It comes in a wide array of colors and patterns at various price points to suit different renovation budgets. Dekton is not worth the cost for homeowners who are particularly worried about chipping or cracking.

Yes, concrete is significantly stronger than masonry, especially if the concrete pour includes reinforcements, like steel rebar. Concrete is a uniform material that can withstand compression, sheer force, and tensile force as long as it’s reinforced. Masonry involves the use of mortar or grout to connect individual building materials, like brick, stone, or tile. Mortar and grout are also reasonably strong and resist compression well, but they don’t come close to the strength of poured concrete.

Brick spalling—which refers to the crumbly, flaky, or pitted appearance that can develop over time—is caused by a few different conditions. These include:

  • Climates with constant freeze-thaw cycles

  • Use of non-breathable sealants

  • High-pressure water cleaning

  • Improper installation

While you can’t do anything about the weather, you can preserve your bricks by cleaning them with soapy water and a good old-fashioned scrubbing. Pressure washers may be satisfying to use, but they can eventually wear away the surface of your bricks. If you don’t have advanced-level DIY skills in masonry, you can hire a reputable masonry contractor in your area for your project.
