"I had quite a bit of cleaning up to do after the contractor left. I did call With a concern about a clogged drain on the outside due to a lot of masonry material gathering in the drain. I didn t get a call back And ended up taking care of it myself."

"Wonderful job all around. We hired Mike to complete a considerable project that ' was originally supposed to only encompass reparing and covering a 100 year old front porch with flagstone. We ended up expanding the project to add several patio areas, including an outdoor fire pit area. Mike is so knowledgeable and the quality of his work is excellent. He walked us through the project and suggested design options to help save money. Mike and his employees were professional, polite, and very skilled. We love our new front porch and outdoor entertaining areas. I would recommend Classic Masonry without hesitation."

"Our foundation was seriously compromised due to water intrusion. Steve responded quickly and gave us an estimate at a great price. He was knowledgeable and informative. Dan and his team repaired our foundation, installed a drainage system and pump, as well as a vapor barrier. Our basement has been dry and free of mold since. The project was completed in a matter of days. I couldn’t believe how quickly they worked. I recommend the gurus to everyone who needs basement repairs. Thank you again!!!"

"They did the job very well. I would not be able to tell where the wall was fixed if it wasn't for the different color of the wall. They also offered to paint the wall after it was all done but we did not have any paint to do so. They also kept the area they worked on clean and took measures to keep it clean from the start. Very professional. Would do business with them in the future."

"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"

"Outdoor Assets did a great job. We needed a concrete slab for our garage and the owner educated me on the process. They completed the concrete slab before the necessary completion date and were able to work with our budget, as well. The company was highly organized, very professional and always cleaned up their work area at the end of the day. I would highly recommend using Outdoor Assets for any concrete and masonry work!"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Spalling brick is not uncommon, but it does indicate a serious issue. It can be caused by water damage, an intense freeze-thaw cycle, or something else. Painted bricks can be susceptible to spalling, as the paint doesn’t allow the porous material of the brick to breathe, which can trap moisture. Spalling should always be addressed immediately before more serious structural damage occurs.

On average, a quality exterior brick stain can last between 10 and 20 years, and sometimes even longer. While it will look its best for a minimum of three to five years, its total lifespan depends on several factors. These include the quality and type of stain used, the condition of the brick, and the thoroughness of the surface preparation, such as proper cleaning. Following the manufacturer's application instructions and applying a sealant as a final step is also crucial. The stain's longevity can be affected by your location, climate, and the brick's exposure to harsh weather, high traffic, and other elements. Over time, the stain may begin to fade or look dingy due to weathering, erosion, dirt, and debris. Compared to paint, brick stain generally has a longer lifespan.

Modern brick homes have a brick facade over standard framing and sheathing, so the brick offers minimal added structural stability. A home with traditional brick construction is more durable than a stick-built home, as the double-layer brick walls and rebar resist higher lateral wind loads and support heavier loads up top, as well.

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.

The white stains you see on your bricks are likely efflorescence, which is salt and lime buildup. To remove efflorescence stains, simply brush them away with a stiff brush. For larger, more stubborn stains, scrub the stains with a water-detergent solution.
