"Our house needed strata lock piers. The rep Ivan did an excellent job of Explaining and planning the job. The crew, Mark , Danny and Alfred installed the strata lock piers. They are a skilled, efficient and very hardworking crew. We highly recommend foundation support specialist."
"They did an excellent job. Very informative about what they were doing. Helped us decide what we wanted done. Very good cleanup. Took care of yard decorations and put them back when they were done."
"Anthony, John and Jay were excellent. I was amazed when a crack in my tile (caused from the foundation shifting) came together after the lift! I highly recommend Baird. Everyone you come in contact with are true professionals."
"My pier and beam house was built around the end of WW2 and the bathroom looked like it had been there. I had foundation issues due to old water damage and the floor felt like it was on the verge of collapse. The foundation was done relatively quick and raised the bathroom 1.5 inches. A few cracks but nothing a little putty and paint couldn't fix. They were in and out in about 3 days and you wouldn't even know they were there with the way they respectfully took care of everything. Next was the bathroom remodel. The bathroom had to go down to the studs and the frame. All supports were reinforced and pipes replaced. To help assist with expediting this, have a list of everything you want ahead of time and start ordering asap. Supply lines are still not the best and was able to swap some materials out to comparable on the shelf replacements. Keep the concept in mind but be flexible with the details and you won't be disappointed. This stalled completion by a week but overall was completed in a little over 3 weeks. The house does not shake the pictures when you walk thru it now and the bathroom sparkles and shines vs being a scary place to walk into. I highly recommend Hercules Foundation and Home Remodeling. Allen Alexander is a warm individual to work with and put me at ease to face the challenges ahead. The pricing was very fair for the amount of work that was done. Felix and Mike the storyteller made the foundation work feel like it was a walk in the park. Rodger the carpenter was with me every step of the way on the bathroom and wrangling the ordering and the trades teams like a boxing champion. Dave the tile master was cutting edge with his impromptu design. They were all very pleasant to work with, very professional and highly skilled at what they do and they do it well. Respectful of working in your home and kept it clean like if they were working in their own home. If you are interested in having this type of work done, I would highly recommend talking with these folks as you are gathering your bids. Every time I walk by my new bathroom, I stop and smile."
"Systems pavers installed a beautiful paver patio in our backyard. The process was extremely organized, from the detailed consultation with Jeremy, to the office process with Mary Mae, online portal, the crew members and project managers. Despite an uncovered hick-up (unknown previously covered e-gress window), the crew found a resolution and made us feel at ease. Highly recommend System Pavers."

"We are very pleased with the results. Our home is a story and a half and approximately 3,200 square feet. Allen came and provided a written quote and explained what needed to be done in great detail. He was very professional in his presentation and the written quote explained everything that would be covered, and what was not included. On August 4th Adam and his crew showed up to begin the work. Adam, like Allen, was very professional in his conduct and his crew was very courteous and stayed busy. Our home required 50 new pillars and I was amazed at the speed and neatness these guys used in digging the holes. The job was completed in less than a week and during that time Adam gave me an update each day explaining what was going on, what we could expect, and where they were in the process. Parts of the home had to be raised over 7 inches and when they were done we had no damage to the plumbing. There were areas in the brick where the mortar was cracked and they took time to fill in these areas so that you could not see that there ever was a crack.

If you want to make your home eco-friendly, enjoy low maintenance, and love the fact that its looks will take people’s breath away (and not because they were trying to blow your house down), then a modern brick home is right for you. You can hire a mason to get the building process started for your brick home.
But if you’re not fond of the color and don’t want to deal with the process of repointing or other repairs, consider going with vinyl or wood. These materials offer a lower cost. While they tend to require more maintenance, they don’t cost nearly the same as exterior brick house repair.
This is largely dependent on the size and hardness of the rock, but a range of tools might work, including hammers, chisels, rock hammers, sledge hammers, and more. You'll need a jackhammer for the very biggest rock-breaking jobs.
A well-made brick wall can last up to 100 years if maintained properly, which includes regularly repairing the mortar every 30 to 50 years. If your brick wall is under 30 years old and is already showing signs of repair, it may be due to poor brickwork and installation. Extreme weather conditions can also accelerate a brick wall’s life span (especially the exterior of a house).
Common causes include weather exposure, moisture, and settling. Regular maintenance prevents significant damage.
Yes, it is usually possible to repair a damaged brick mailbox. A professional brick mason or masonry contractor can perform the repairs. They can assess the damage, provide an estimate, and help you determine if the repair is worthwhile based on the mailbox's value and the extent of the damage. The repair process may involve sourcing replacement bricks and mortar. Damaged bricks can be cut out and replaced, or the mortar joints can be cut out and retucked. It's important to note that the new mortar may differ in color from the original. If the mailbox insert itself is damaged, it can typically be cut out and replaced as well. If your brick mailbox has been completely destroyed, you should check with your local building code enforcement office before rebuilding, as some areas do not allow brick mailboxes due to the potential hazard they pose to drivers.
