"Disciple Masonry did a fantastic job replacing my worm bricks and pointing other bricks on my home. Nathan thoroughly explained the entire process and completion so I fully understood. The job was done meticulously and the end result truly matched the new bricks with the older bricks exactly the way I wanted them to. Thanks again Nathan! I would recommend Disciple Masonry for all of your masonry needs."

"We needed repairs to the brick foundation in our basement and had used Mendoza Stone Masonry before with great results. John called us within hours and was at the house the next day. He inspected the job, gave us a good price, and scheduled us for the following week. The work was done today, and we could not be happier. They went above and beyond, resetting and repairing the wall from end to end and at the chimney. They cleaned up and moved all the stuff back against the wall for us. They were friendly and efficient, and they did excellent work. I highly recommend Mendoza Stone Masonry!"

"Absolutely beautiful work. The only snag was that there were delays to the schedule at each step. I believed each explanation, I think between employee shortages, supply chain problems and COVID closings this year was really hard on schedules. I would call these guys again for paving or cement work. They left our yard better than they found it."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Yes, you can do German schmear on stone. You can account for the more textured and rough surface of stone by using a large paintbrush instead of a putty knife. A brush allows you to drag mortar across the stone to get it into all the cracks and crevices. However, a brush will cover more of the surface, so you may need a wet sponge to scrub excess mortar and expose more of your stone.

The best tool for drilling into brick or mortar is a rotary hammer drill which is a large hammer drill with low rotation speed and high torque. Regular drills with a hammer function are also excellent tools for drilling into brick when the diameter of the hole is 1/2 inch or less. It might be possible to drill into brick with a standard drill if you’re only drilling a very small hole, but note that masonry work will put a lot of wear on a standard drill, and the tool may not be strong enough to get through brick.

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.
