Q: Is brick stain permanent?

• <div><p>Staining or painting brick isn&rsquo;t something to do on a whim. Make sure you really want to live with stained brick, because once you apply the stain, it&rsquo;s permanent. Sure, it will fade over time, but you can&rsquo;t restore the brick to its natural tones after applying a stain or paint.</p></div>

Q: How often does brick need to be repointed?

• <div><p>Repointing brick is recommended every 25 to 30 years. Professional repointing can easily last this long if you're following all basic <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/preventive-maintenance-brick-and-stone-exteriors.htm">brick and stone maintenance tips</a>. However, you may find that you need repointing more often if you live in an area that sees harsh weather or if the construction of your home was rushed. Additionally, if you DIY your brick repointing, you&rsquo;re more likely to find that you need additional repointing more often, so every 10 to 15 years might be more appropriate. </p></div>

Q: What is the downside of painting brick?

• <div><p>While painting can certainly change the look of a chimney, you should think twice about giving your brick chimney the old landlord special.</p><p>Painting brick is porous, meaning it&rsquo;s full of tiny holes that can soak up moisture. Those holes also allow it to dry, though. So, when you paint it, you trap any moisture inside, providing an opportunity for mold, mildew, and water damage.</p><p>Paint also shows wear faster than naked brick. This means that once you paint a brick surface, you&rsquo;ll have to keep painting it to maintain a clean look. A paint job is also harder to undo on brick because of its porous nature. Once you paint it, it&rsquo;s hard to go back without some serious power washing&mdash;another added cost.</p></div>

Q: What cleans creosote from brick?

• <div><p>The best way to clean creosote from brick is to hire a professional chimney sweep. However, you can use a creosote log to remove excess buildup between cleanings. You can also clean minor creosote buildup using dish soap or vinegar mixed with water.</p></div>

Excellent experience with Michael and his team. I wanted a new fireplace, so they did it! Built it, tiled it, and installed the hearth stone. I would highly recommend them!

They have been extremely kind and caring from the beginning to the end. With a big warehouse, many options, I highly recommend these folks. They are experts in natural stone. Mr. Beyan, the owner, is personally overseeing the projects and takes care of each and every detail. Highly recommended.

"Unsatisfied with final results of retaining wall project. Documentation to support my experience. When asked why his quote was lower than others, owner reply the larger companies use blocks from quarry. Ok with blocks from Lowes, 2 days completion, but still expected quality work. Subcontractors excellent job on demo and work on front wall. 3rd day, owner solely completed side wall to driveway. Contractors should have finished the job. I was not ok with the side wall design being lower than the lawn. Owner Stephen Q. was verbal aggressive when I asked him to fix it. Neighbors came out. He threaten to remove the wall. Owner explain- property on slope, pay him. Cashiers checks written to owner and not in company's name ($1,900 and $2,200) per owner's request. To fix the misaligned side wall cost est. $2,200 per another contractor. Waiting for est. to fix lawn. Photos taken at a distance are deceiving. Must review up close. Photos attached. Older woman just trying to update my home."
