Q: Is Dekton worth the money?

• <div><p>Dekton is worth the money for homeowners who want a nonporous countertop that resists heat, stains, water, scratches, and UV damage. It comes in a wide array of colors and patterns at various price points to suit different renovation budgets. Dekton is not worth the cost for homeowners who are particularly worried about chipping or cracking.</p></div>

Q: Can I cut used or reclaimed bricks?

• <div><p>Yes, but used or reclaimed bricks can be more brittle, cracked, or uneven than new bricks, so they&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: How much does masonry work cost?

• <div><p>The cost of masonry work varies widely depending on the type of masonry along with common cost factors like size, complexity, location, and season. Most exterior masonry work done in freezing temperatures tends to cost more because of the preparation and protection involved to keep the masonry from freezing before the mortar cures properly. The average price ranges per project or square foot for different types of masonry include:</p><ul><li><p>Brick wall (fence, garden wall, etc.): $10&ndash;$45 per square foot</p></li><li><p>Natural stone wall: $40&ndash;$110 per square foot</p></li><li><p>Manufactured stone veneer: $20&ndash;$40 per square foot</p></li><li><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-would-it-cost-remove-old-brick-and-brick-house.htm">Brick home exterior</a>: $10&ndash;$30 per square foot</p></li><li><p>Brick siding: $3&ndash;$10 per square foot</p></li><li><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/stone-siding-cost.htm">Stone siding</a>: $35&ndash;$50 per square foot</p></li><li><p>Brick step replacement: $20&ndash;$30 per square foot</p></li><li><p>Brick wall repair: $20&ndash;$40 per square foot</p></li><li><p>Chimney repairs: $160&ndash;$750 per project</p></li><li><p>Tuckpointing: $5&ndash;$25 per square foot</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Does staining brick increase home value?

• <div><p>Yes, staining a brick home can increase a home&rsquo;s value, assuming your pro does a good job and you keep up with maintenance tasks. Staining brick is a much better way to increase a home&rsquo;s value than painting brick, as the latter can cause chipping, warping, and bubbling. Brick stain, on the other hand, gets absorbed by the surface, so it can still breathe. </p></div>

Q: Can it be dangerous to cut stone as a beginner?

• <div><p>Cutting stone comes with a number of safety hazards. First and foremost, if you&rsquo;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&rsquo;t wear proper ear protection; similarly, you need to wear eye protection to keep debris from irritating your eyes.</p><p>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.</p><p>To avoid injury, we recommend hiring a stone-cutting professional, rather than attempting this job yourself.</p></div>
