"I HIGHLY recommend Virginia Foundation Solutions.They explained in details, that we could understand, exactly what we would need and how it would be accomplished. They even explained why we wouldn't need more (or less) work than they were recommending. Detailed prior to the work what we would need to do as well in preparation. (which was very little) Their communications are stellar.From start to finish with the delivery of the warranty packet. They made sure several times that we knew we could call at any time during the process if we had any concerns or questions of any kind. We dealt mainly with Andy, Josh and Danny. The work was completed ahead of schedule and was inspected regularly by the production manager, Josh throughout the process. We found it very easy to work with everyone as they were very friendly and accommodating, and we were comfortable with everything and everyone we had contact with. They are true to their word and very trustworthy Again, I am so glad we chose this company to do our work and highly recommend them. Thank you VFS for making such an intrusive repair so much easier to get through!"

"You couldn't have a better crew & business to do this installation for you. All the installers worked as a fabulous team. Radames, Gary, Chris A & A-Shawn on the dig out & sump pump installation was during the hottest days of the year. Never stopped or complained. The discharge line had to go through the brick of my house & under my sidewalk, Gary, James & Josh finished out as good as it gets to doing the masonry work. Anytime you call the office (Cindy, Katie, Mikki & Christa,) it seems as if your the most important customer they have, never on hold or inattentive to your questions & needs. Also an A+ to the electricians Vinnie & his assistant, just a great job."

"I asked JES to inspect our foundation to determine if we had a foundation or drywall issue. Ben did a thorough evaluation and told me that we did not have a foundation problem. I appreciate his honesty and would recommend JES."

"Dave and George are great, they kept us informed and were extremely responsive. My husband and I were not in total agreement on where and what type of fence to install. JB Property Development provided several estimates without any complaints. George told me several times "we will do it any way you want." We started with wood and switched to vinyl, it turned out beautiful"

"The process went very smoothly.  There were several teams that worked on my project.  The initial workers removed all of the old insulation and trash left under the house during construction, and cleaned the joists.  Later a perimeter drain system was installed, and the final job was to insulate the foundation perimeter and install the vapor barrier.  

All the work was done in a professional manner and the workers were all very courteous.  They were on time and on budget."

Open vents in the foundation walls allow outside air and moisture to infiltrate the crawl space, increasing the relative humidity and allowing mold spores to thrive inside.
Spray foam application in progress on warehouse walls.
The dirt floor is exposed, which will allow the moisture from the earth to rise uncontested into the crawl space, adding to the increase in relative humidity.

"I needed stucco repair work on an old chimney (and other spots). Grady was meticulous and thoughtful on what approaches and materials would work. Throughout the project they allocated sufficient time for each treatment to cure and inspected the work before proceeding to the next step. Grady started the project with no money down and only required ongoing payments for materials until the project was well underway. The final payment was due only after they did a final inspection. Total project cost was also below other bids."

"My wife and I have dealt with many contractors over the last 30 years and Mr. Hipp is, by far, the absolute best of the best. If you need any masonry worked performed, call Chuck Hipp or you are making a huge mistake! My wife and I are perfectionists and difficult to please and Mr. Hipp greatly exceeded our expectations. His work is nothing short of perfection, a rating of A++. We had issues with a brick veneer wall that arose from faulty construction. It was so badly damaged that Nationwide, our insurance company of 25 + years, refused to renew our homeowner’s insurance unless the wall was repaired with very short notice. My sister had masonry work performed by Mr. Hipp and we admired his superb craftsmanship. I contacted Mr. Hipp, explained our situation, and he came out late the same day on Saturday to assess the situation and provide us with his recommendation. We were very impressed with his knowledge and professionalism and we hired him. Due to the urgency of our situation, Mr. Hipp reprioritized his schedule and began work within a couple days, without a signed contract or any deposit! I contacted an engineer that works for Nationwide and shared with him Mr. Hipp’s proposal. The engineer informed me he was well aware of Mr. Hipp’s reputation and stated that whatever he did would greatly exceed the requirements of Nationwide. The new wall and surrounding area is absolute perfection. It blends in so well with the rest of the masonry work that you cannot tell a repair was performed. Mr. Hipp also repaired some sloppy masonry work performed by another local firm whom I won’t mention here which now looks exceptional, build us a beautiful new brick mailbox, and repaired our brick walkways and chimney. The flashing on our roof had to be repaired after the wall was built. I called a reputable roofing company who stated they were backed up 3-4 weeks. I informed Mr. Hipp and he called the same company and they repaired the roof the next day as a favor to him! Chuck Hipp is a man of integrity and the absolute best in his craft. He’s also a wonderful, caring person that you can trust explicitly. We have never met anyone quite like him."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Initially, brick staining is not cheaper than painting. However, while it has a higher up-front cost, it may be more cost-effective in the long run. Brick stain can last for 20 years or longer, compared to paint, which usually starts to peel away in three to five years.

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.

The cost of masonry work varies widely depending on the type of masonry along with common cost factors like size, complexity, location, and season. Most exterior masonry work done in freezing temperatures tends to cost more because of the preparation and protection involved to keep the masonry from freezing before the mortar cures properly. The average price ranges per project or square foot for different types of masonry include:

  • Brick wall (fence, garden wall, etc.): $10–$45 per square foot

  • Natural stone wall: $40–$110 per square foot

  • Manufactured stone veneer: $20–$40 per square foot

  • Brick home exterior: $10–$30 per square foot

  • Brick siding: $3–$10 per square foot

  • Stone siding: $35–$50 per square foot

  • Brick step replacement: $20–$30 per square foot

  • Brick wall repair: $20–$40 per square foot

  • Chimney repairs: $160–$750 per project

  • Tuckpointing: $5–$25 per square foot

Cobblestone is not a type of rock but a term for a mosaic or rock laid down as a surface. It used to be made from the closest available stone but now can be made from nearly any hard rock, as machining has made shaping the stone much easier and cheaper.

This is largely dependent on the size and hardness of the rock, but a range of tools might work, including hammers, chisels, rock hammers, sledge hammers, and more. You'll need a jackhammer for the very biggest rock-breaking jobs.
