"Chris Inch and his co-worker, I think his name is Alex did an excellent job in repointing chimney, making masonry repairs on side of my duplex in city that required stucco repairs, caulking, repaired front porch steps. They just went the extra mile - rehung my exterior shutter and found a piece so that it could be rehung. Friendly yet very professional. They know what they are doing. I would not hesitate to hire them again. All A's except one B and that was because I got a quote back in November, and I responded with more questions but then I never heard back. Out of the blue, I get a call in January and they are ready to do my work. Very responsive once on the scene. But again, excellent job. I also think the price was very reasonable."

"J&E Masonry completed a stone wall repair as well as a small concrete entrance repair for me, both with outstanding effort in all aspects related. Time to come out after initial contact, view desired work and provide an estimate was remarkable. Start dates were provided and time frames for completion maintained. Work was meticulous and cleanup exceptional. Thank you Edgar and Micheal-recommend without reservation."

"At times, it is difficult to get a response from a contractor. Not only was Bansaz Construction responsive, but I also received an estimate the same day they visited to assess the project. Once the materials were in stock, the job (retaining wall) was completed in a timely manner. As some of the other reviews indicate, the team is neat, courteous, professional and clean up the job site daily. I am looking forward to have Bansaz Construction perform another retaining wall project for me in Spring 2021."

"Masonworx Construction did an excellent job repairing my front steps, which were out of code, and fixing damaged mortar joints on my front landing. Jason was professional, knowledgeable, and thorough throughout the process. The finished work looks great and gives me much more confidence in the safety and condition of the entrance to my home."

"Smith Waterproofing did a great job. I got a number of quotes from different companies. The good folks at Smith Waterproofing were the most professional and reasonable of the group. They were very responsive to my questions. They also did precisely what they said the would do, when they said they would do it, and for the price they said they would do it for. I highly recommend you get a quote from Smith Waterproofing. When you do, you'll decide to hire them to do the work, especially if you've compared them to other companies."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

If you’re attempting to mix and pour your own mortar, expect to pay between $5 to $10 for an 80-pound bag of mix. The cost to repair mortar, however, can range from $300 to $500 for a 20-square-foot wall. The larger the area and the more extensive the repair, the higher the cost.

Brick stain doesn’t peel or chip and is much more durable than painting. That’s because the staining is absorbed into the brick instead of lingering on the surface as paint does. The color retains even under extreme weather conditions. Therefore, brick stain will save you a lot of time and cost on maintenance in the long run.

Yes, as long as the cut is clean and the brick remains structurally sound, you can reuse it. Reusing brick is especially common for landscaping, edging, and small masonry repairs. Just make sure to file down any sharp edges before handling or installing it.

A traditional rectangular brick that is used for siding, brick walks, and pathways is 8 inches long by 4 inches wide. If you are shopping for fire bricks, the standard dimension is typically 9 inches long by 4.5 inches wide.

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.
