"It went extremely well they delivered exactly what we had envisioned for our patio. Came everyday until the job was done. We’ve never had a project completed this smoothly and in the timely fashion. I would highly recommend J&G Masonry to my friends/colleagues and will be utilizing them for future work."

"I can't recommend Worthley Masonry enough. I first hired Worthley Masonry to rebuild ~30' of a retaining wall that was bowing out and falling apart. They took the wall down, added proper drainage, straightened the wall, and then rebuilt it using the stones that were originally there to match the rest of the retaining walls on my property. They did such a great job on the retaining wall that I hired them to re-do my ugly poured cement walkway. They added steps to make it safer, set it at a proper gradient for drainage, and created a beautiful design using pavers and edging stones I had picked out. Communication was top notch and they answered all of my questions and explained why they were doing things the way they were. I couldn't be happier with how my retaining wall and front walkway turned out. Travis (the owner) is extremely hard working and completely honest about everything he does. He's easy to talk to and is extremely proud of his work and it shows. He puts the time and effort into his work as if it was his own home. We gave him creative freedom with our walkway and it looks amazing. I'd hire him again for any stone work I needed done in the future."

"I contacted Kevin for a quote on a Thursday, sent him some pictures and dimensions, he gave me a quote, and Friday morning he and his team were at my house starting the project. They demo'ed all the brick and hauled it away and began the first stages of the concrete slab (smoothing out the loam, adding drainage rocks, putting up the forms). Concrete truck came on Monday morning, and the whole thing was done by Monday afternoon. Despite it being "just" a concrete slab, it looks incredible; Kevin absolutely takes pride in his work and makes sure you're happy with all aspects of the project before he calls it done. This was the easiest and fastest home improvement project I've ever had done. I would hire him again in an instant, and I would recommend him to anyone who needs masonry work done. Highly recommended!"

"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"

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."

"They have a drone that took excellent photos before and after the job. The The job was to replace the chimney stack from the roof up. The chimney looks great. Unfortunately they delayed the work day 3 times, blaming each other for miscommunication. The day they finally showed up (over a month later) they requested an extra $1,800.00 blaming the other partner for under estimating the job. I regret not telling him to take his scaffolding down and leave. Nice enough guys but that was not right."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Unfortunately, there are many disadvantages to stone houses. They are slow to build and the materials are pricey, both of which balloon the total cost. Stone walls require a more robust foundation, which costs more to install. Running plumbing, electrical, and HVAC through a stone house is much more difficult too, so homeowners need to seriously consider if the aesthetic benefit is worth the cost of building with stone. One of the questions to ask a masonry contractor is if a similar aesthetic can be achieved with another material.

You can use normal bricks as cladding for a concrete or clay pizza oven or as a base underneath one. Fire bricks or solid clay bricks are necessary for an outdoor pizza oven’s floor, and you can use clay bricks for the rest of the oven.

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.

Professionally done brick repointing can last 20 to 30 years, sometimes longer. However, the exact lifespan depends on several factors, including the quality of the mortar, the skill of the mason, and exposure to weather. If you live in an area with harsh weather or frequent freeze-thaw cycles, you may need to repoint more often. Repointing that is done as a DIY project may only last 10 to 15 years. It's time to repoint when you notice signs of mortar failure, such as crumbling or missing mortar, holes, or vines growing between the bricks. Regular inspections can help you catch these issues early.

You should clean your home’s brick once per year. This applies to exterior brick, but also to cleaning brick fireplaces. Create a homemade cleaning solution with equal parts vinegar and water. Use a soft-bristle brush to scrub the solution into the face of your brick and remove dirt, algae, and stains. Cleaning will protect brick from damage and boost your home’s curb appeal.
