"The overall experience was really good. Scott kept in touch with me via phone and email after our first contact. I got advance notice about when they would be available to do the work, and the day the work was scheduled, they showed up on time. I was given a walk through on everything they needed to do, they gave me some options where decisions needed to be made. The crew was respectful of my property. They were not loud, they cleaned up everything in their work area. I'm satisfied with the finished result, and with the price I was given. I'm building what is basically a free stone retaining wall on one side, and I was even given some tips on how to make that go smoothly! I've very satisfied, and if I need this type of service again, I'm going to call Green Landscaping first."

"From my first phone call to Ryan to discuss my needs to Lane Jack and Michael S doing my work, I have been more than pleased with the service and attention given to me. My project was more complicated than expected (due to the location of my utilities), but they did everything to ensure my foundation repair was correct and did not leave me in a bad situation. The guys were very respectful of my home and toward me as well. I would 100% recommend them to do your foundation repairs."

"Someone hit my brick mailbox and I hired Peace Construction to rebuild it. It only took 1 day to be rebuilt. The bricks for the mailbox matched the exact bricks on my home. It looked better than the one that was damaged. The owner was very professional and extremely easy to work with. I would DEFINITELY recommend Peace Construction for any masonry needs. They are quick and professional. I was very satisfied and the price was exceptionally reasonable."

"Javier Ramos Landscaping LLC did a fantastic job installing the new sprinkler system. The newly laid sod was peeled back and the trenches were all hand dug. Javier put the system under the driveway without the need to cut it. It took Javier and his crew 1 day to complete the sprinkler system. The lawn was back to normal and no sign of the trenching exists. I would highly recommend Javier Ramos Landscaping LLC."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

The best color to paint a brick fireplace comes down to personal taste. However, neutral colors—like white or gray—will open the space and create a bright modern look, making them popular options. However, choosing a bold color can turn your fireplace into a feature piece that will be the talk of all family gatherings. 

A fireplace hearth is a fireproof flooring material that extends out from the base of the fireplace and into the room. Hearths can be made of brick, ceramic, marble, limestone, and more. A hearth serves the purpose of decreasing the fire risk in the area directly around the fireplace. If flying embers hit carpet or wood, they’ll spark and create a fire. But if they hit something like tile or granite, they’ll simply go out.

Yes, concrete is significantly stronger than masonry, especially if the concrete pour includes reinforcements, like steel rebar. Concrete is a uniform material that can withstand compression, sheer force, and tensile force as long as it’s reinforced. Masonry involves the use of mortar or grout to connect individual building materials, like brick, stone, or tile. Mortar and grout are also reasonably strong and resist compression well, but they don’t come close to the strength of poured concrete.

Most of the time, you don’t need to seal brickwork and can save that money for another area of home improvement. But if your brick is cracking or you live in an area with a lot of excess moisture (either in terms of rain or freezes), sealing can extend the lifetime of your home. But, make sure you use a breathable sealant, like siloxane, to allow the moisture to evaporate on its own.

According to the Earthquake Country Alliance—a public and private alliance in California that works to improve earthquake and tsunami readiness—reports that unreinforced masonry, such as stone, bricks, and hollow clay tiles, is more susceptible to earthquake damage. The mortar between bricks isn’t as stable as other building materials and methods.
