"Brad was obviously an expert in masonry. He did the job of repairing and painting our chimney exterior as well as helped troubleshoot our draft issue. Brad also gave us pointers on general upkeep and repair for our property overall. We enjoyed meeting him, too. He was personable, courteous, and thoughtful. We would definitely hire him again."

"We discovered that the hot dry summer of 2011 had done it's damage on our house and one corner of the house was definitely lower than the rest of the house. This led to doors not shutting and windows leaking. When we did get a small rain in October we had a flood come under the seal plate at the front of our house and through the house toward the low corner. After Brown Foundation investigated the extent of the foundation slope we understood the importance of getting the house leveled. Brown recommended several outside piers and two inside piers under our masonry fireplace and also mud jacking the sunken living room in order to stabilize the slab after the foundation was leveled. The only negative was one that Brown had no control over and that was there were more people like me in 2011 than in most years and we had to wait for more than a month to fit into their schedule. We were able to get in on a first available list sooner than they quoted, which helped us finish before Christmas. Brown did what they quoted and the crews were very knowledgeable and courteous. I would use Brown again."

Solid brick structures can last a century or more, potentially 100 to 150 years with proper maintenance like tuckpointing. Without major repairs, classic red bricks may last 20 to 40 years. Brick veneer siding is also a long-lasting material, with a lifespan ranging from 50 to 100 years, provided it is properly installed and maintained. To maintain brick veneer, you should scrub it annually with a special detergent and a soft-bristled broom. It's also important to inspect the bricks and mortar regularly and hire a masonry contractor for any necessary repairs, such as fixing worn mortar or bowing bricks.
Yes! Hot glue is an excellent—and temporary—way to spread holiday cheer with Christmas lights without damaging your brick exterior.
A fireplace hearth is a fireproof flooring material that extends out from the base of the fireplace and into the room. Hearths can be made of brick, ceramic, marble, limestone, and more. A hearth serves the purpose of decreasing the fire risk in the area directly around the fireplace. If flying embers hit carpet or wood, they’ll spark and create a fire. But if they hit something like tile or granite, they’ll simply go out.
Masonry work tends to be more expensive because the materials can be costly, such as natural stone and brick. Masonry is also very labor intensive, typically making up 50% or more of the final project cost. In addition, quality masonry work requires years of training and experience, as with any skilled trade.
A mason lays brick or stone together, sometimes with mortar in between the bricks and stones, and sometimes without mortar, also called a dry-stack or surface bonding. Examples of work masons do include:
Brick, stone, or cement block houses and buildings
