"We were impressed with the time line and quality of work. The cleanup was another thing but that seems to be a constant thing. At 73 it is hard for me to do much. He left his frames and concrete residue on the grass wich has to be raked up. It isn't a big deal but for me it is another project. Mr. Milligan was very personable and courteous. I would hire him again but would pay closer attention to the cleanup."

"Wow! What a great job Fred and his crew did. From the first meeting until the final touches you couldn't ask for a more professional job. In this day and age it is refreshing to see someone who: 1. Shows up when he says he will be there. 2. Gives you a quote the same day.. didn't have to wait weeks. 3. Is fair and reasonable with the cost. 4. Does the work his says he going to do and more. 5. Makes great recommendations on the design. This company takes great pride in their work. If I need more work done this is where I'm going. I highly recommend you go there to!!!!!"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Solid brick structures can last a century or more, potentially 100 to 150 years with proper maintenance like tuckpointing. Without major repairs, classic red bricks may last 20 to 40 years. Brick veneer siding is also a long-lasting material, with a lifespan ranging from 50 to 100 years, provided it is properly installed and maintained. To maintain brick veneer, you should scrub it annually with a special detergent and a soft-bristled broom. It's also important to inspect the bricks and mortar regularly and hire a masonry contractor for any necessary repairs, such as fixing worn mortar or bowing bricks.

Masonry work tends to be more expensive because the materials can be costly, such as natural stone and brick. Masonry is also very labor intensive, typically making up 50% or more of the final project cost. In addition, quality masonry work requires years of training and experience, as with any skilled trade.

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. Types of concrete applications include driveways, garage and basement floors, and poured concrete walls in basements and crawl spaces.

You should worry about brick wall cracks when they are wide and growing, or in a horizontal or stair-step pattern. Additionally, they may be accompanied by other signs of structural stress. In these cases, a foundation specialist should inspect your home.

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.
