"**One Year Review: Block by Nick Retaining Wall and Staircase** Listen you get what you pay for! Block by Nick, built a beautiful retaining wall and staircase for my home a year ago. **Professionalism:** From our first meeting, Nick impressed me with his expertise and knowledge on a challenging winding staircase. He listened to my vision and provided valuable insights throughout the project. **Quality of Work:** The craftsmanship is outstanding. The retaining wall is both functional and visually appealing, while the staircase adds practicality and style. **Customer Service:** After a minor issue arose six months later due to heavy rain, Nick responded quickly and fixed it within a week. His commitment to customer satisfaction is commendable. I highly recommend Block by Nick for any hardscaping needs. His work has greatly enhanced my property, and I look forward to future projects with him!"

"Oscar and his crew did an excellent job. We would use them again in a heartbeat. They went the extra mile and even replaced damaged sections of the wood sheathing underneath the roof, which we never would have seen if they cut that corner and didn't do it."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is normal to see some minor hairline cracks in brick or mortar over time, often due to natural foundation settling. However, not all cracks are harmless. You should be concerned and contact a masonry professional for an inspection if you notice cracks that are getting wider or longer, or if new ones keep appearing. Other serious warning signs that can indicate significant structural or foundation damage include large vertical cracks (especially those that widen as they go up), stair-step cracks, L-shaped cracks, and deep horizontal cracks. Factors like temperature changes, moisture, and structural loading can also cause cracks to form or worsen.

Two types of masonry are veneer masonry and solid masonry. Veneer masonry is thin brick or stone material attached to the face of a building. With veneer masonry, the walls support the weight of the masonry products rather than the masonry being built on a concrete footing. Solid masonry is a wall or other brick or stone structure built on a concrete footing, and the masonry supports itself.

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.

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.

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
