"Solid-filled masonry pier with 24x24x10" footing.
Automatic Vents.
Services were scheduled over 2 weeks, the first week the preparation was done for the footing and some vents were installed. The second visit was to finish the footing and install the last of the crawl space vents."
"Edwin was very knowledgeable and gave us a fair quote. We'd have liked to gotten on his repair schedule sooner than 4 weeks before he had an opening, but completely understand now why it took so long; Mount Valley is a great company to work with! The repair work significantly improved the stability of the foundation, and the very scary settling sounds (from the stress-relief in the attic's rafters) have ceased. The cosmetics of the masonry are visibly also improved, however the foreman did not advise additional lifting of the foundation, (necessary to completely close remaining gaps in the masonry) for concern that damage in other areas could occur. This opinion was reasonable, although the masonry cracks did not completely close. There are still visible mortar gaps; before dismissing the crew, my husband advised the crew not to address mortar because they brought grey mortar, not sand-color needed. I've since asked Mount Valley what they can do for us, and am awaiting their response."

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.
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.
Real stone is exactly what it sounds like: It’s real stone sourced from the earth without additives. It is durable and unique, but it’s difficult to work with because of its weight, challenge in sourcing, and high cost. Stone veneer mimics the look of real stone but is actually engineered with a mixture of Portland cement, natural minerals, and a colorant. While it’s more affordable and easier to work with, it’s less durable and may appear manufactured to the trained eye.
Cobblestone fell out of favor with the advent of motor vehicles. Asphalt and concrete are both much smoother surfaces allowing for a smoother ride. Asphalt is also much cheaper, especially for driveways. However, we didn’t stop using cobblestone altogether, and you can still see it as a decorative option in both homes, in parks, and in pedestrianized areas of cities.
Clean regularly, check for cracks, and inspect the chimney annually for safety.
