"We hired Brick Experts to do several projects at our house in Grapevine: - Stabilize a wing wall that had sunk by a couple of inches - Repair/complete some brick work that was incomplete when we bought the house - Repair several cracks in the mortar joints on our house and on our mailbox - Stabilized the brick work over our garage door (it was sagging and causing cracks in the mortar) David's crew did excellent work across the board. Their attention to detail was excellent, even despite the extremely hot weather (it was 104 degrees one of the days the crew was working!). I also appreciated that David checked in at the job site regularly to make sure the crew was on track, and performing the work properly. Ultimately, the crew did a great job, and for a very reasonable price. Regards, Scott"

"I would definitely recommend Pinnacle Foundation repair. The senior geologist came to measure my garage area where the brick had cracked on the outside. He was very professional and kept me informed each step of the work. The men showed up to do the work on the only 95 degree day in February. I've never seen guys work harder digging the holes for the piers. They worked all day in the heat digging, putting in the piers, and raising the house. Then they poured the concrete and filled in the holes. They smoothed the concrete on the driveway holes, and carried away the extra dirt. They had put down tarps on the grass, so that when they finished, you couldn't see where the piles of dirt had been placed. The supervisor explained everything to me. Then about a week later another engineering company came to check to make sure the garage was level. Also, a plumbing company came to check the underground plumbing to make sure there were no leaks in the drain. Everything went just as they had explained, and I am glad I chose Pinnacle Foundation."

"Blaney Stonework and Landscape in Richardson, Texas is truly a top-notch company for all your stonework needs. We’ve hired them for three separate projects, and each time they delivered outstanding results. The craftsmanship was exceptional—thoughtfully designed and executed with great care. Communication throughout each project was excellent, and everything was completed on time. They also maintained a clean jobsite, which we really appreciated. The final outcomes were absolutely gorgeous and far exceeded our expectations. These projects have significantly enhanced our home’s value and serve as the proverbial "cherry on top" of our curb appeal. Highly recommended!"

"Heath and his crew did a fantastic job! We had a couple of half inch cracks over our garage that were only getting bigger. Heath came out when he said he would and gave us a couple of options. We elected to go with concrete piers. Heath and Katie were excellent at communicating the process and performing the work when they said they would. They were even able to save some of our plants. I honestly didn’t expect for any of them to survive. The results were amazing! I highly recommend them for any foundation repair needs that you may have."

Customers say: True professional

"Great work! We had a loose capstone and an archway where the mortar was falling out. Not only did Alberto and his team fix the capstone and the masonry, they also repaired a previous fix that had been sloppily done. I am very pleased with the final outcome. It matches well with our other brickwork and you would almost not be able to tell anything was done."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Yes, an outdoor fireplace should use fire bricks. Fire bricks are specially designed to withstand high levels of heat and thus won’t crack as easily as regular bricks when exposed to the intense heat inside a fireplace.

Removing paint from brick can have both aesthetic and practical value. Some people prefer the timeless look of bare brick, making it worthwhile to remove old paint layers. Brick also lasts longer when unpainted, as paint traps moisture, causing the brick to deteriorate more quickly. If your brick walls are already in bad shape, stripping the paint off might do more harm than good.

When painting brick, each application method has distinct advantages and disadvantages. Spraying is significantly faster but may not penetrate deeply beyond the surface layer. Rolling is effective for working paint into the brick's texture but can be less effective on mortar joints. If you opt for a roller, choose a thick nap of at least a half-inch to ensure paint gets into all the crevices for even coverage. Using a brush is generally not recommended as it is very time-consuming and provides poor surface penetration. Ultimately, a combination of spraying followed by back-rolling is often the best strategy for a durable and even finish.

While painting can certainly change the look of a chimney, you should think twice about giving your brick chimney the old landlord special.

Painting brick is porous, meaning it’s full of tiny holes that can soak up moisture. Those holes also allow it to dry, though. So, when you paint it, you trap any moisture inside, providing an opportunity for mold, mildew, and water damage.

Paint also shows wear faster than naked brick. This means that once you paint a brick surface, you’ll have to keep painting it to maintain a clean look. A paint job is also harder to undo on brick because of its porous nature. Once you paint it, it’s hard to go back without some serious power washing—another added cost.

On average, a quality exterior brick stain can last between 10 and 20 years, and sometimes even longer. While it will look its best for a minimum of three to five years, its total lifespan depends on several factors. These include the quality and type of stain used, the condition of the brick, and the thoroughness of the surface preparation, such as proper cleaning. Following the manufacturer's application instructions and applying a sealant as a final step is also crucial. The stain's longevity can be affected by your location, climate, and the brick's exposure to harsh weather, high traffic, and other elements. Over time, the stain may begin to fade or look dingy due to weathering, erosion, dirt, and debris. Compared to paint, brick stain generally has a longer lifespan.
