"Absolutely wonderful! Juan came out on a holiday to look at the project and quote a price. He started the project that week and my stairs are beautiful! He and his crew do excellent work, paying attention to the smallest details! I would highly recommend J&G Masonry - the craftsmanship is outstanding! Juan is a pleasure to work with and kept me informed all along the way."

I found they were very knowledgeable and thorough and definitely looking out for my best interest. I highly recommend this company!!"

"Derek Waters and his crew of newly formed Northern Grey Masonry did a great job putting in a small retaining wall at the side of our house. Their many years of experience was clearly evident. Prompt, courteous and professional all the way. We will be using them again!"

"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."

"Just for EASY BASIC jobs. I had them remove small decorative stones and replaced with new plants/shrubs. They just dug holes and plants. I asked them to put weed barrier down, which I had. They werenâ t doing it, so I went out to water new plants.......then they started to use it!! Good people, price reasonable for the job"

"Can’t say enough good things about 2DD Construction, highly recommend and will hire them again in the future - Eladio and his team redid a retaining wall - which was a big, big job- I had different/other contractors come see the wall but Eladio was responsive, straight forward, knowledgeable, and didn’t just offer patch work or workarounds. Throughout the project they were on schedule, professional, honest and did an excellent job. Mr. Eladio and his team did the work exactly as described, I would highly recommend and plan on working with them in the future."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

A fireplace is, by definition, an enclosed space where you burn wood or other fuel for the purpose of generating light and heat. A firepit burns wood and is much less expensive to build, but they aren’t technically a fireplace as it isn’t enclosed. An outdoor oven—commonly outdoor brick pizza ovens—often uses wood as fuel, but its primary purpose is to cook food, and you’d rarely just burn wood inside them for warmth or aesthetic reasons.

Yes, but used or reclaimed bricks can be more brittle, cracked, or uneven than new bricks, so they’re harder to cut cleanly by hand. For that reason, you should take extra care when scoring and striking, and expect a higher chance of breakage. If a brick feels especially fragile, score deeper before attempting to split it.

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.

Initially, brick staining is not cheaper than painting. However, while it has a higher up-front cost, it may be more cost-effective in the long run. Brick stain can last for 20 years or longer, compared to paint, which usually starts to peel away in three to five years.

Common causes include weather exposure, moisture, and settling. Regular maintenance prevents significant damage.
