Can you pressure wash the paint off brick?

• <div><p>Yes, technically, you can pressure wash the paint off of brick. However, you run a much greater risk of damaging the brick and causing serious problems. If you go this route, you’ll still need to carefully choose and apply a chemical paint stripper before washing, following all instructions on the product packaging. Set your power washer to a low pressure to avoid damage.</p></div>

How do you paint a brick chimney?

• <div><p>When it comes to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-paint-brick-home-exteriors.htm">how to paint a brick chimney</a>, consider that standard paint can seal in moisture and cause serious chimney problems. Instead, use a vapor-permeable sealant. You’ll first scrub and sand the chimney; then, you can patch any gaps with caulk and apply the sealant. We recommend hiring a pro for this job since it entails working on the roof, which comes with a lot of necessary safety precautions.</p></div>

Q: Is cobblestone a real rock?

• <div><p>Cobblestone is not a type of rock but a term for a mosaic or rock laid down as a surface. It used to be made from the closest available stone but now can be made from nearly any hard rock, as machining has made shaping the stone much easier and cheaper. </p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between masonry and concrete?

• <div><p>Masonry uses units like bricks, cement blocks, and stone with mortar between them. Mortar is generally made of sand and a type of cement. Examples of masonry include the brick or stone on a house, chimney, or freestanding wall. Concrete is a mixture of water, sand, stone aggregate, and other materials, and is poured into forms or moldings. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-concrete.htm">Types of concrete</a> applications include driveways, garage and basement floors, and poured concrete walls in basements and crawl spaces.</p></div>

Q: Can I reuse a brick after cutting it by hand?

• <div><p>Yes, as long as the cut is clean and the brick remains structurally sound, you can reuse it. Reusing brick is especially common for landscaping, edging, and small masonry repairs. Just make sure to file down any sharp edges before handling or installing it.</p></div>

Andrew Dollar was great. He went above and beyond our expectations. He even cleaned our stepping stones to the front door and the storage building in our backyard. He was even able to get some cooking oil stains on our concrete driveway. We couldn’t ask for anything better!!

First time working with (concrete) stone stack. We are unfamiliar with what is involved and are pleased with the result. May want to consider some sealer on the "stone" to help protect it from chipping, as that is the risk you take for going the less expensive route than real stone. Built two...
