WE ONLY PROVIDE FLOORING REMOVAL, NO INSTALLATION. We provide 99.7% dust free tile, wood, slate and any other masonry removal. We eliminate the carcinogenic crystallin silica dust that is caused when removing these surfaces without our patented equipment. Before you get your new floor, let us remove your old floor and avoid the extra cleaning costs, time and labor required to clean-up dust. It can cost thousands, because it gets everywhere, in drawers, on curtains, walls, and ceilings. Take it from someone who has been there and done that; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYeeSJ6VzSE&t=5s

"Truly amazing. I must admit that I was a little skeptical about total dust fee, however that is exactly what it is. We came home after having all our slate tile floors removed, I tried to find dust in all the usual places, window ledges, countertops and shelves, I could find no dust, truly nothing! To say the least I was impressed, I would highly recommend their services. Jake"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Most of the time, you don’t need to seal brickwork and can save that money for another area of home improvement. But if your brick is cracking or you live in an area with a lot of excess moisture (either in terms of rain or freezes), sealing can extend the lifetime of your home. But, make sure you use a breathable sealant, like siloxane, to allow the moisture to evaporate on its own.

You should generally drill into the mortar joints when installing shutters on brick. Mortar is softer, which makes drilling easier and puts less strain on your tools. It also lowers the risk of cracking a brick—something that’s a lot harder to fix. Mortar holds fasteners well enough for standard shutters, and if you ever need to patch the holes later, it’s a much simpler job than dealing with damaged brick. Just keep in mind that if your mortar joints are too thin or the hardware calls for brick anchoring, you'll need to check the manufacturer’s recommendations and adjust accordingly.

Stone veneer siding is approximately four times less expensive than stone because it's made of concrete and aggregates instead of natural stone. But veneer looks like real stone, is easier to install, and acts as a great, durable siding option. 

Europe is a continent made of many individual countries with a history of city life. In these cities, dirt roads were unsanitary and often shifted. The Ancient Romans started laying cobblestone streets in the 3rd century, which became an iconic feature of European cities. The durable and practical paving material proved to be extremely weather-resistant.

Mortar and thinset both serve the same purpose—tile adhesion—but have different compositions and use-cases. Thinset is heatproof and presents a wide range of possibilities due to the added polymers. Mortar is typically used for bonding stones and brick. Thinset is rarely used outside, while mortar is rarely used inside.
