"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!"

"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!"

"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!"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Some older brick material is extremely hard, making it tough to create a hole. Rather than using a typical wood drill bit, always use a masonry drill bit when drilling into brick. For extremely hard brick, using a power drill with a hammer function may give you better results. The drill bit will heat up as it goes into the extremely hard brick, so you may need to stop after a few minutes and allow the bit to cool before starting to drill again.

Use fire bricks for a brick pizza oven. These bricks are typically used for fireplaces and chimneys as they can withstand high temperatures from heat sources. If you attempt to use any other kind of bricks, it’s likely that this material will crack from such high heat exposure in the best case—and potentially explode and cause serious harm in the worst case.

Costs range from $3,500 to $15,000, depending on material, labor, and design complexity.

Common causes include weather exposure, moisture, and settling. Regular maintenance prevents significant damage.

You can use normal bricks as cladding for a concrete or clay pizza oven or as a base underneath one. Fire bricks or solid clay bricks are necessary for an outdoor pizza oven’s floor, and you can use clay bricks for the rest of the oven.
