"Maltos Masonry was outstanding. Frank and his crew did a fantastic job on my brick work. They showed careful attention to detail and took the time to do a quality job."
"The stonemason was amazing and transformed an unusable area into a user-friendly access to upper and lower outdoor space. It truly transformed an eye-sore and unstable stone staircase. Forrest was easy to work with, following through with everything we discussed and on the job site daily. Project took a few days longer than expected, but was definitely worth it to get it done properly. Also, start date was extended out considerably, but now that the project is done, we are so happy I can't think anything but positive thoughts about Blaney Stonework! Would definitely use them again and highly recommend."
"Hi Guys: You did a great job. I've been working at getting the plants and yard back in shape. Thanks for the good job at cleaning up. I appreciate that you tried to save some of the plants that were in the way around the edging in the gardens. I've replanted what I could and I think all well be well. The grass is still looking poor, but I think it will come back eventually. Thanks for working to get the rain barrels elevated. They look great and work so much better. I'm so glad you could use all the stone and leftovers, too. I like to recycle and reuse when possible. Don't forget to stop by some day soon to see the finished (well, never quite finished!) product. Bill enjoyed talking to Joe, too. He has good ideas for landscaping and making things work. They are both problems solvers...a good thing to be in life. Thanks so much again. I'm so glad I went with E. Smith Masonry. Joanne J. Durbin 5120 Quail Lake Drive Dallas, TX 75287"

"Luis's team at Arbors and Patios were fantastic. Luis, the owner was incredibly professional, communicated with us regularly and also provided a lot of details to help us make design decisions etc. He has separate teams specializing in carpentry, concrete and masonry respectively. Each team had a team lead who was great to communicate with. They always arrived promptly, completely their work promptly and tidied up after they finished. We are beyond happy with the backyard transformation they did. Our stamped concrete patio and arbor are beautiful. You can tell that Luis and his team take great pride in their work and have great attention to detail. I highly recommend them!"
"This is one of those companies that reminds you of the way business used to operate. Their word is gold and they deliver more than what is expected. I cannot speak highly enough of this company. All facets of work was done to perfection, from irrigation to digging beds and planting. The work was done right, quickly, and professionally and everything was clean when the job was done. Everyone from the owner all the way down the line takes pride in what they are doing. I was so impressed by Pinckard that I have since decided to have them build masonry borders around my front bed, and I have employed them to take care of all of the yard work and maintenance every week.

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).
Yes, it is essential to prime or seal a brick fireplace before painting. Brick is a porous and highly absorbent material, so without a primer, paint can seep into the surface, resulting in uneven coverage and allowing the natural brick color to show through. To avoid this, apply one or two coats of a masonry primer. The primer will seal the brick and provide a smooth, uniform layer for the paint to adhere to. Ensure the primer is completely dry before applying the topcoat of paint.
Spalling brick is not uncommon, but it does indicate a serious issue. It can be caused by water damage, an intense freeze-thaw cycle, or something else. Painted bricks can be susceptible to spalling, as the paint doesn’t allow the porous material of the brick to breathe, which can trap moisture. Spalling should always be addressed immediately before more serious structural damage occurs.
The best way to clean creosote from brick is to hire a professional chimney sweep. However, you can use a creosote log to remove excess buildup between cleanings. You can also clean minor creosote buildup using dish soap or vinegar mixed with water.
Landscape boulders, especially porous stones like sandstone or granite, can crack or break over time. Cracks occur when water seeps into the surface of the stone and freezes. The risk is highest when it rains during the day and temperatures freeze overnight since the moisture has time to penetrate deeper into the rock before expanding.
