"I highly recommend Joshua Brown and Longhorn Stone Masonry. Joshua recently designed and built a brick mailbox for my new home, and I could not be happier with the results. I did not have a specific design in mind, but Joshua immediately put me at ease by telling me to simply show him a picture or describe what I wanted, and he would build it. He provided a detailed proposal, communicated clearly throughout the project, and worked closely with me during the material selection process to ensure I received the best value for my investment. The finished mailbox is beautiful and has greatly enhanced the appearance of my home. Joshua's craftsmanship, professionalism, and commitment to customer satisfaction are outstanding. I would gladly hire him again and highly recommend Longhorn Stone Masonry to anyone needing quality masonry work."

"The brick layers were very knowledgeable and experienced. They corrected an alignment problem I wasn't even aware of. They finished the project in three hours and I was very pleased with the results. They suffered through the rain to keep working. I would highly recommend R&M Masonry for any stone or brick project."

The day the work was done, he came out with the men to make sure they understood what was expected and answered all my questions. The work was done efficiently and I’m am extremely happy with the result. Paul called later to make sure I was happy with the work. I highly recommend them!"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Brick spalling—which refers to the crumbly, flaky, or pitted appearance that can develop over time—is caused by a few different conditions. These include:

  • Climates with constant freeze-thaw cycles

  • Use of non-breathable sealants

  • High-pressure water cleaning

  • Improper installation

While you can’t do anything about the weather, you can preserve your bricks by cleaning them with soapy water and a good old-fashioned scrubbing. Pressure washers may be satisfying to use, but they can eventually wear away the surface of your bricks. If you don’t have advanced-level DIY skills in masonry, you can hire a reputable masonry contractor in your area for your project.

Chimney mortar typically lasts 20 to 30 years, depending on its quality, local weather conditions, and maintenance. Over time, exposure to moisture, freezing, and thawing cycles can cause mortar to deteriorate, leading to cracks and gaps. Regular inspections and timely repairs, such as repointing or tuckpointing, can extend the lifespan of chimney mortar by ensuring the structure's integrity.

Clean regularly, check for cracks, and inspect the chimney annually for safety.

When it comes to how to paint a brick chimney, consider that standard paint can seal in moisture and cause serious chimney problems. Instead, use a vapor-permeable sealant. You’ll first scrub and sand the chimney; then, you can patch any gaps with caulk and apply the sealant. We recommend hiring a pro for this job since it entails working on the roof, which comes with a lot of necessary safety precautions.

Drilling into brick or mortar requires the use of a masonry drill bit. Masonry drill bits appear similar to standard drill bits except for the leading tip of the bit. The tip has a bulky carbide arrow-shaped end slightly larger than the rest of the bit shaft. Standard or high-speed drill bits designed for making holes in wood or metal don’t have the ruggedness or design shape you need to drill into brick. They may not go through the brick at all, and if they do, they’re more likely to overheat, crack, or dull before you finish drilling.
