"Bernard did a great job pouring a slab for a shed and trenching and installing conduit for future electrical wiring. He was responsive, on time and did good work, following the drawings I had prepared and making changes where necessary. Bernard went above and beyond, stopping by the house and hauling away a pile of garden debris, without me asking just because he was in the area. I would highly recommend Bernard and would hire him again if I had any concrete or masonry needs."

"Serenescapes designed and built a retaining wall and patio in our sloping backyard. The landscaper and his staff were very professional, hard working, and efficient. The work was beautifully done so we and our neighbors are very pleased."

"Only one side of the driveway culvert walls was damaged by a careless driver. When he came to estimate the job, I specifically asked Gavin to be sure to match the mortar to the undamaged wall so that there would be no color difference. The day he came to do the repair job I again asked him about the mortar matching and simply responded that he was using 'X mortar' (I don't remember the name). Just as he was close to finishing up the job I was called away to the hospital on a family emergency but looked at the work before I left and told Gavin I was afraid the mortar wouldn't match but he said it would darken over time so I thought it would be OK. However, when I returned home a few days later I found that several of the cobblestone blocks had not been reset (they were laying loose next to the wall) and the dried mortar now looked almost white....nothing like the sandy color of the undamaged wall. I had paid him in full for the job before I had to quickly leave and between time I spent at Johns Hopkins and less than 24 hours/wk at home for a period of months, I tried to contact the company but to no avail. It has been two years and I'm still waiting for the mortar to darken....this experience was an extreme disappointment."

"I couldn’t be more pleased with their work! JES workers: Johnathan Dominique Ricardo were the best. They worked so hard and were very professional. They were pleasant to talk with and patiently answered all of my questions. They were very clear about what they were doing and why they were doing it. They put a drainage system in my basement and sealed the walls. I wish everyone I had to do work for me had their work ethics. It was a pleasure to watch them work and to see how they all worked together so easily! I am actually going to miss seeing them. They were here 4 days and I really got attached to them. You just don’t see workers like them anymore. I would highly recommend them!!! They were a blessing to me!"

"Bobby and the Fortress Techs were very professional, considerate, and thorough. The difference we feel from the crawl space insulation from before to after is amazing. Within just a day or two that musty smell in the house that was coming from the crawl space was gone! Bobby kept us informed throughout the entire process and finished the project on time. I would highly recommend Fortress Foundations Solutions to everyone; we were extremely satisfied with the outcome and the high quality customer service we received."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

The United States Postal Service (USPS) recommends placing a mailbox 6 inches to 8 inches back from the curb. If your lot is unusual, speak with town authorities or the local post office to determine the correct placement.

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.

When painting brick, each application method has distinct advantages and disadvantages. Spraying is significantly faster but may not penetrate deeply beyond the surface layer. Rolling is effective for working paint into the brick's texture but can be less effective on mortar joints. If you opt for a roller, choose a thick nap of at least a half-inch to ensure paint gets into all the crevices for even coverage. Using a brush is generally not recommended as it is very time-consuming and provides poor surface penetration. Ultimately, a combination of spraying followed by back-rolling is often the best strategy for a durable and even finish.

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.

Cobblestone can be made from many different types of stones but the most common ones, by far, are granite, basalt, limestone, and sandstone.  If you are laying a brick paver patio or other such project, the medium is different. It’s rare, but cobblestone can also be made from marble, slate, jasper, and other types of rock. Technically, you can make cobblestone from almost any type of rock, but if it is weather-resistant and stands the test of time is another question entirely.
