"Travis went above and beyond on a retaining wall I needed to be repaired. When I first reached out, he assessed the scope of the project, thought about it, then sent out a quote. His quote was competitive, but what struck me the most is his creative approach to the work and willingness to do something "outside of the box". He removed a portion of the wall, used pressure treated lumber to keep cost down, and installed a new side set of stairs in place of the broken wall. He then proceeded to fix the remaining portion of the wall with cement. He went above and beyond to install sod to keep a portion of the dirt intact. I will definitely be reaching out to Travis for other masonry work. Thanks Travis!"

Customers say: Super punctual

"WOW! We called around and got quotes from many masonry pros, and then we heard about Kevin through a friend. He was truly amazing from start to finish! He wanted to learn all about our project, and put together several proposals that would fit our needs & budget. He actually talked us OUT of a couple of unnecessary upgrades that most others were pushing. From design to scheduling to followup, he worked with us to get everything done in a timely and super high quality manner. We couldn't be more happy and we will never use anyone else for such projects. Highly recommended! A+++++++"

"It is with great alacrity and satisfaction that I write this review of Arch Masonry. We undertook some renovations on our house, and the lower section required masonry work. I reached out to Arch Masonry, and Derk promptly contacted me, coming to our home to provide a fair estimate for the job. Derek’s employees were professional and completed the work with great care. We had the front of the house mended, and we were so pleased that we decided to continue the masonry work on the back of the house and the foundation. Derek was timely in his work and offered competitive pricing. I would highly recommend Arch Masonry to anyone seeking high-quality masonry services. Derek embodies professionalism, and I often wish I had the money, land, and resources to build a grand castle in my neighborhood, constructed by Derek’s masonry company. Sincerely, The Mosleys"

"Valter and his crew were prompt, courteous, respectful, and hard-working. Communication was great, and Valter consulted me at every step. His crew flawlessly re-pointed our foundation in several spots, built a new border around our front garden, and laid in a paved walkway. The results were stunning. Valter was direct, honest, and fair in his estimate and pricing. We will definitely work with him again!"

Customers say: Quality work

"It was a real pleasure dealing with the owner and his crew. They did a superb job (not that I went up on the roof to check it up close and personal, but rather relied on the report from my roofer). They priced their job fairly. They came in a timely manner (I was replacing my roof and wanted the job done before the new roof went on). It was a real pleasure working with them."

"JRM was very easy to work with - we did all the project discussion and planning by phone/text using photos and Googlemap images, which saved time. They were able to do the project within 10 days of our initial discussion; the date and price were as quoted and the walkway looks great."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Mortar is a mixture of sand and cement that binds materials, such as bricks, stones, and concrete blocks, together. Think of it as the glue that fills in the gaps between bricks and stones, then seals them in place to prevent damage or deterioration. Mortar also helps spread the load across a wall or structure, keeping cracks and shifting at bay.

Drilling into brick or mortar requires the use of a masonry drill bit. Masonry drill bits appear similar to standard drill bits except for the leading tip of the bit. The tip has a bulky carbide arrow-shaped end slightly larger than the rest of the bit shaft. Standard or high-speed drill bits designed for making holes in wood or metal don’t have the ruggedness or design shape you need to drill into brick. They may not go through the brick at all, and if they do, they’re more likely to overheat, crack, or dull before you finish drilling.

Staining or painting brick isn’t something to do on a whim. Make sure you really want to live with stained brick, because once you apply the stain, it’s permanent. Sure, it will fade over time, but you can’t restore the brick to its natural tones after applying a stain or paint.

Granite is the strongest commercially available stone houses are built from. It’s also more commonly available, which means transport costs aren’t as high because a granite quarry isn’t too far from a build site. Limestone and sandstone are popular materials as well, but they aren’t as strong or weather-resistant as granite.

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.
