"I had an excellent experience with Legacy Supportworks! From start to finish, their customer service was outstanding—friendly, professional, and always willing to answer my questions. Alex, Marshall, and Adania completed my foundation work. They were knowledgeable and efficient, and they took the time to explain every step of the process."

"JB Lawncare and Construction mounted a mantel for me over an electric fireplace. The installation was quick and very professional. They were able to fit me in very quickly on the day I made the inquiry. I will definitely hire them again for any projects that may come up in my home. Thank you so very much!"

"Jose worked long hours in order to complete the project in a timely manner. He put thin brick on a 20 foot high wall in order to match the existing brick on our fireplace and then lime washed all of the brick. The before, and after pictures are dramatically different, and we are very pleased with the finished product."

"I was looking for quotes for a floor for a shed and a driveway for my motorcycle, and R.C.Concrete responded in less than 1/2 an hour! He answered all of my questions and went to check other homes in the area as well as city hall for restrictions. Him and his crew were fast, efficient, and friendly. He even leveled my air conditioner because it was right next to the motorcycle driveway and he was concerned about it sinking into the grass! They went above and beyond! I am a very happy customer!"

"The basement king was a pleasure to work with. His knowledge is unmatched in the Texas area for sure. I received multiple quotes and talked to multiple companies and he was the best. He's passionate about his work and the manner in which it's done. If he says something, it happens. An added benefit was their cleanliness. Usually a job site of this size and complexity is a mess, but not with the basement kings. 10/10!"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Yes, brick houses are better insulated, because the bricks slow down the passage of air from the outside to the inside and vice-versa. This helps to stabilize the internal temperature of the home. When combined with proper residential insulation, brick houses are more efficient and better insulated than other types.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

Brick is the closest choice when seeking to capture the timeless look of stone with a more practical and budget-friendly option. When comparing stone versus brick siding, the price range of $200,000 to $400,000 for average brick home construction is dramatically lower compared to the cost of building a stone home. If you'd like to keep the stone aesthetic without the cost, stone veneer and manufactured stone are both less expensive than real stone.

Rock salt and ice melts contain sodium chloride, aka salt, and are corrosive to metal and concrete. If used frequently over time, it can cause corrosion, discoloration, chipping, and cracking to patios, walkways, and driveways. You can try a rock salt alternative or hire a professional snow removal company instead. 

In some cases, black stains on brick are caused by organic substances like algae and mold. However, it's more likely that the black spots you're noticing on your bricks come from carbon from vehicle exhaust or soot. Black stains can usually be removed by scrubbing the brick with a brush and masonry cleaner or power washing.
