"I had been dealing with an uneven garage floor for several years and consulted multiple companies, but most either quoted very high prices or couldn’t handle the job properly. TJ and his assistant, Miky, from Walking 4 LLC, carefully assessed the situation, explained everything clearly, and offered several options with pros and cons. Their honest recommendations helped us make a confident decision. We chose to redo part of the garage floor to level it. TJ provided a clear plan, and the pricing was very reasonable. The work was completed with excellent craftsmanship and a professional finish. The results were impressive—so much so that my neighbor hired TJ on the spot. He also went the extra mile by replacing and adjusting the garage door seals to ensure a proper fit. I highly recommend Walking 4 LLC for concrete work. Their professionalism, honesty, and quality are outstanding."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Always work with licensed and certified masons in your area when installing a stone wall or even a stone veneer. Just like all home designers, they should provide an impressive portfolio and offer a free estimate for the project. Pick the pro who fits your budget and schedule and, most importantly, helps you realize your landscape vision.

Mortar, or masonry mortar, is mainly used in joints and as parging for stone, brick, or cement construction. Stucco is primarily a surface material used as wall coverings. For maintenance, masonry will need repointing or replacing as damage or land shifting occurs, whereas stucco will need patching or refinishing as it tends to crack over time along with other types of wear-and-tear.

Yes, it is normal to see some minor hairline cracks in brick or mortar over time, often due to natural foundation settling. However, not all cracks are harmless. You should be concerned and contact a masonry professional for an inspection if you notice cracks that are getting wider or longer, or if new ones keep appearing. Other serious warning signs that can indicate significant structural or foundation damage include large vertical cracks (especially those that widen as they go up), stair-step cracks, L-shaped cracks, and deep horizontal cracks. Factors like temperature changes, moisture, and structural loading can also cause cracks to form or worsen.

Unfortunately, there are many disadvantages to stone houses. They are slow to build and the materials are pricey, both of which balloon the total cost. Stone walls require a more robust foundation, which costs more to install. Running plumbing, electrical, and HVAC through a stone house is much more difficult too, so homeowners need to seriously consider if the aesthetic benefit is worth the cost of building with stone. One of the questions to ask a masonry contractor is if a similar aesthetic can be achieved with another material.

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.
