"I don't have enough superlatives to describe the excellent job Tecton Stoneworks did on this difficult and complicated job. Aaron Utter came out himself to do the estimate and was on the job site 3 of the 4 times I dropped by to see the progress. They started work within days of my accepting the bid, did everything they said they would and more. They finished on time and cleaned everything perfectly. I've dealt with many contractors through one new home build and two renovated homes. This was the easiest and most professional crew I've dealt with ever! My one hundred and one year old home is ready for another one hundred years and I have no doubt that the brickwork done by Tecton will stand the test of time."

"Blaney Stonework and Landscape in Richardson, Texas is truly a top-notch company for all your stonework needs. We’ve hired them for three separate projects, and each time they delivered outstanding results. The craftsmanship was exceptional—thoughtfully designed and executed with great care. Communication throughout each project was excellent, and everything was completed on time. They also maintained a clean jobsite, which we really appreciated. The final outcomes were absolutely gorgeous and far exceeded our expectations. These projects have significantly enhanced our home’s value and serve as the proverbial "cherry on top" of our curb appeal. Highly recommended!"

"I contacted Pinnacle because I was seeing some minor issues with my foundation and wanted to get an expert opinion. Justin came out and did a thorough inspection and was able to answer all my questions. It turns out we did not need foundation work but Justin recommended other things such as gutters for our home. He also scheduled a follow-up up visit in 6 months to make sure everything was still ok. Even though I cannot comment on Pinnacle's foundation work, I give them 5 stars based on my experience with Justin."

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.

When painting brick, each application method has pros and cons. Spraying is much faster but may not penetrate the porous surface of the bricks. Rolling is effective for getting paint into the bricks but doesn't work as well on the mortar. Brushing is very time-consuming and also won't penetrate beyond the surface. For the best results, a combination of spraying and rolling is often recommended. If you use a roller, choose a thick option (at least a half-inch) and ensure the paint gets into all the crevices for even coverage.

You can turn a red brick white through a process called whitewashing. Whitewash isn’t a stain but rather is made from water and white latex paint. Adding more water to the mix will make the solution look lighter when applied, and adding more paint will make it look more white.

They offer durability, aesthetic appeal, and resistance to weathering compared to concrete or asphalt.

While painting can certainly change the look of a chimney, you should think twice about giving your brick chimney the old landlord special.

Painting brick is porous, meaning it’s full of tiny holes that can soak up moisture. Those holes also allow it to dry, though. So, when you paint it, you trap any moisture inside, providing an opportunity for mold, mildew, and water damage.

Paint also shows wear faster than naked brick. This means that once you paint a brick surface, you’ll have to keep painting it to maintain a clean look. A paint job is also harder to undo on brick because of its porous nature. Once you paint it, it’s hard to go back without some serious power washing—another added cost.
