"Mark Funk and his team were excellent. Mark always clearly communicated with us when he/his team would be at our house and what work needed to get done that day. His team was very professional. They repointed our 100+ year old stone house, replaced 7 window lintels, capped our chimneys, and even fixed parts of our tiled roof. They took their time exactly matching the mortar color and texture to our existing mortar. Mark even made sure the hardness of the replacement mortar matched ours to ensure it will not crack in the short term. They fixed many cracked stones and now they look as good as new! Their price was very reasonable given the sheer amount of work our house needed. We did price compare with several other stone masons and Mark was the only one who correctly realized our lintels were completely wrecked (it was very visible). Everyone else we got estimates from wanted to shove cement-- not even mortar-- into the cracks and call it a day. Mark and his team definitely know what they are doing and do it professionally. We often get comments from walkers about how nice our house looks now."

"Rick and his crew were just what I was looking for. I had questions about replacing my home roof with metal and Rick answered them all along with a few suggestions that I hadn't thought of. He came to my home on the day the supplies were being delivered to be sure everything was correct and direct the driver where to put them. The workers were reliable, (at the work site at 6am everyday), friendly, and most importantly skillful. I love my new roof and have been getting calls and comments from neighbors and friends who drive by. I would surely recommend RMS Contractors to anyone looking for a new roof!"

"John and his crew were professional answered all my questions and explained it fully. They were careful of my ceramic tile that was put down less than a year ago. When taking out the old wall they dealt with rows of glass bottles, door hinges and chisels and let us know that these obstacles took extra time.. While working on the foundation they had to deal with alot of rain. My front yard was a mess from the machinery. When they were finished they leveled out the track marks, the only thing I need to do is add grass seed"

"Advanced Basement Solutions were very professional, personable and worked quickly. They were reasonably priced after I had multiple astronomical quotes and felt defeated, they reassured me that there are still great companies that wonâ t rack up the rates. I appreciated the fact that they explained the process and kept me updated with the progress. I would recommend their services to all."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

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.

The size of your pizza oven will determine the number of bricks necessary to build it. So the bigger your pizza oven, the more fire bricks you’ll need to purchase. Keep in mind that fire bricks cost about $3 each.

No, you don’t need to soak the brick before cutting it by hand. In fact, cutting a wet brick can make it harder to see your score lines and may cause the chisel to slip. Soaking is sometimes used with power tools to reduce dust, but for hand-cutting, it’s best to work with dry bricks for better control and visibility.

Costs range from $3,500 to $15,000, depending on material, labor, and design complexity.

Cutting stone comes with a number of safety hazards. First and foremost, if you’re not comfortable with the equipment required to cut stone, including blades and grinders, you could easily injure yourself. The heavy machinery also poses a risk to your ears if you don’t wear proper ear protection; similarly, you need to wear eye protection to keep debris from irritating your eyes.

However, the biggest risk from cutting stone comes from the stone dust. When breathed in, stone dust can be a huge hazard to your lungs. Always wear a face mask when cutting stone to prevent inhaling stone dust, and thoroughly clean the work area when you are finished.

To avoid injury, we recommend hiring a stone-cutting professional, rather than attempting this job yourself.
