"Throughly amazed with the quality of work these gentlemen did on our home. They were extremely hard workers that returned my phone calls, showed up to work when they said they would and cleaned up the work area each day. You donâ t find many younger people with this work ethic any more. Would highly recommend them and will use them again!"

"Dalton drove out to the ranch outside Rapid City, SD several times to take care of the shower and the kitchen sink. My mom is 90 years old. Dalton not only fixed everything, he also was so kind and courteous to my mom. When mom mentioned the roof had a hole in it. He climbed up and took pictures. He then recommended another employee to come out and fix the roof. I could not have asked for a nicer, professional and kind person to come all the way out to the ranch to take care of my MOM. I highly recommend Loyal Plumbing Heating and Cooling for all your household needs and fixing. Thank you."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Do not use super glue to hang lights on brick unless you want your lights up year-round. Hot glue is a better choice because it’s easily removable with a small amount of rubbing alcohol. Super glue is very hard to remove, and you could tear off parts of the brick in the removal process.

A traditional German schmear uses mortar, making it unsuitable for adherence to painted surfaces. Professionals recommend removing any existing paint before applying mortar. However, you can rough up the painted surface and clean it to test if the mortar will stick. Remember that the underlying paint's texture and color may affect the schmear's final appearance—so starting with a bare brick wall will ensure the ideal finish.

No, you don’t need to soak the brick before cutting it by hand. In fact, cutting a wet brick can make it harder to see your score lines and may cause the chisel to slip. Soaking is sometimes used with power tools to reduce dust, but for hand-cutting, it’s best to work with dry bricks for better control and visibility.

The cost to install or replace brick or stone siding generally ranges from $10 to $50 per square foot. The final price depends on several factors, including the specific material type, local labor rates, and any necessary preparation work, such as removing old siding. For example, different types of stone have varying costs per square foot: natural stone ($4.50–$35), stone veneer ($11–$13), faux stone ($6–$9), and cultured or manufactured stone ($5–$8).

Not all cracks in brick indicate foundation problems. For instance, small hairline cracks can occur as a new construction settles. However, larger cracks are often a sign of a more severe issue. Indicators of a potential foundation problem include long horizontal cracks, "stair-step" cracks, vertical cracks that appear indoors, or any crack that widens at the top. Other signs of structural damage to look for are uneven floors and doors or windows that stick. These issues could be caused by problems with the soil beneath the home or an overgrown tree.
