"Ebuka and Tyler did a great job. They fixed work that had been done before but had started to sink again. It all looks better than it did before they fixed it. Thanks for the great job, Susan Moore"

Most recently, demolition and home restoral have been a current focus due to the ill-effects of Hurricane Harvey. As professionals, we offer accurate estimates (insurance grade), and work closely with our clients to match our expertise to their vision of a better home.

"The contract sent out a crew to remove the old roof. That crew completed that in 1 day. The contract didn't get a roofing crew out for about a week after. I ended up raining & causing interior damage. The roofers installed the new roof but it was horrible! It was very very poor work. The contract said he was going to fix a few problems & wanted to get the balance of the roof job. We questioned why he didn't @ less replace the fascia before doing the roof & that's when it turned. The contract wanted to get paid for the roof job before he did anything else. After going back & forth about the poor roof job, the contractor agreed to return the deposit because he admitted that it was a poor job. He wrote up a agreement to repay the deposit but has yet to do so. After several calls, he stated he is out of business & will pay a little @ a time, when he get some money."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Brick can increase the value of your home depending on the type of masonry materials used. Homes generally have a higher resale value when they have brick siding, and brick is also easier to maintain (and lasts longer) than other types of siding, which can motivate buyers to make an offer.

Just keep in mind, however, that although brick can up the asking price when you sell your house, the cost to brick a house is also more expensive than other typical siding costs—so you’ll invest more in the project.

On average, a well-built brick mailbox can last between 30 and 100 years. The insert that holds mail inside the mailbox may last 15 to 25 years before it needs to be replaced. If a mailbox needs to be fixed due to damage, make sure you know who to hire for brick repair.

A mason lays brick or stone together, sometimes with mortar in between the bricks and stones, and sometimes without mortar, also called a dry-stack or surface bonding. Examples of work masons do include:

  • Brick, stone, or cement block houses and buildings

  • Freestanding stone or brick walls

  • Chimneys with wood-burning fireplaces

  • Cement block basement or crawl space walls

Stone veneer siding is approximately four times less expensive than stone because it's made of concrete and aggregates instead of natural stone. But veneer looks like real stone, is easier to install, and acts as a great, durable siding option. 

You may not need a hammer drill if you’re planning on drilling one or two very small diameter holes in brick. For holes with a diameter of 3/16-inch or less, a regular drill with a masonry bit can do the job. However, the bit will heat up quickly, and the process will take significantly longer than with a hammer drill. Prepare to cool your drill bit down in a bucket of water more often.
