"Called for free estimate and Alex responded. He gave me the options for repair and did not pressure me into a decuson. He let me make the choice. The communication was excellent. A crew of 8 showed up and worked all day completing the project. They were polite and cleaned up after the job was completed. I checked around and found their estimates to be the best with about the same guarantees. This was a very pleasant experience. Now my doors don't gap and close nicely. Thanks Groundworks."

"Before August 12, 2024, Angi connected me with Rubio Landscape & Maintenance to install my sprinkler system. He asked for 3 payments and promised me it would be completed in 2 weeks. I paid him the initial deposit of 12,175 on 09/02/2025, 2nd payment of $,6087.50 on September 11, and the third and final payment when the job is completed. He has not completed the job, and he started calling me while I was on vacation, asking for money. He wants me to go to the bank to pay him before the job is completed. He was obnoxious and disrespectful. He is so impolite. No manners. He did not complete the job until Oct. 6, 2025. I found defects in the work, like the sump pump was not installed properly. The machine was loosely connected to the post. It was so loose it rattled when windy. I was afraid it was going to fall off and create a hazard. He would not fix it, so my handyman and I reinforced and put additional screws and bolted the pump."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

A traditional rectangular brick that is used for siding, brick walks, and pathways is 8 inches long by 4 inches wide. If you are shopping for fire bricks, the standard dimension is typically 9 inches long by 4.5 inches wide.

For most masonry cleaning jobs, you should use a masonry sponge and a gentle cleaner like dish soap, vinegar, or a dedicated fireplace or masonry cleaner. Harsher bleach-based or ammonia cleaning agents should only be used if necessary and never mixed together.

It is possible, albeit a lot slower, to break up a rock using water. You would do this by freezing and thawing the water. You could create some initial holes or cracks in the rock, then pour water into the cracks or holes and allow them to freeze (so it's best to do this in winter or in colder climates). Since water expands when it freezes, this puts pressure on the inside of the rock and causes it to crack. You could continue to pour more water in and let it freeze to continue to break up the rock.

Yes, an outdoor fireplace should use fire bricks. Fire bricks are specially designed to withstand high levels of heat and thus won’t crack as easily as regular bricks when exposed to the intense heat inside a fireplace.

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.
