"Highly recommend NGL Pavingstone. Holly provided a detailed bid so no surprises with cost. She brought samples of materials to the house and kept in contact throughout the entire installation. Manual and his crew did a fantastic job, they showed up on time everyday, worked efficiently, and were easy to communicate with. They completed installation of approximately 90ft long (in three sections) x 4ft at highest point retaining wall, 10 ft pathway and steps in a week. They did a beautiful job dealing with elevation changes in the yard."

"John removed our old cracked and broken driveway and hauled away all debris. He was meticulous in his preparation and laid crushed gravel and rebar. Come the day of the concrete pour he showed his expertise in working on the cement and created an awesome final product. His professionalism and fair price would make me want to recommend him to my friends and family."

"It was A+++ service from quote to finish. We had stairs and walkways and patio paved. Michael was most helpful in helping us choose excellent design choices and Danny, Alain and Martin ( the crew) were wonderful. Martin is a master craftsman with unusual attention to detail and design. The project started and finished in expected time. We were consulted every step to ensure we were happy. I strongly recommend lifestyle pavers. Fair price, wonderful people and excellent workmanship."

"I am extremely happy with with Wu Construction! From start to finish it has been a very pleasant experience. First, I send a frantic email after heavy rains to which I received a quick and reassuring reply - on the weekend! Next Greg came out to quote, provided a good price and was able to get the work scheduled for me on the spot for only a week later. Thanks Greg! Today the technicians arrived right on time, were very professional and did an amazing job. I kept peaking outside to see what was happening and I could tell they were executing the work with great care and attention. The quality of the work exceeded my expectations. Also it was discovered midday that more work was needed than originally thought when one of my downspouts was unearthed full of roots. I appreciate that they were able to accommodate the additional work and still complete everything in one day!"

"American Rose Garden did a excellent job. I would highly recommend them. Tad is a great communicator and I was always informed of what was going on and what was coming next. I have used American Rose Garden for 10 years . Not only does he do my personal residence but he does the landscaping on all my rental properties. I would not use anybody else."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Mortar and thinset both serve the same purpose—tile adhesion—but have different compositions and use-cases. Thinset is heatproof and presents a wide range of possibilities due to the added polymers. Mortar is typically used for bonding stones and brick. Thinset is rarely used outside, while mortar is rarely used inside.

If you’re attempting to mix and pour your own mortar, expect to pay between $5 to $10 for an 80-pound bag of mix. The cost to repair mortar, however, can range from $300 to $500 for a 20-square-foot wall. The larger the area and the more extensive the repair, the higher the cost.

Yes, masonry is more expensive than concrete because the labor is much more involved. With masonry, your expert will build your project from the ground up, one piece at a time, ensuring they use the proper amount of mortar or grout during construction and keeping the project level or plumb. Pouring concrete can also be labor-intensive, but it’s a bit less involved. It requires building a mold, pouring the concrete, and letting it cure. The less intensive labor makes concrete a more affordable option in most cases.

Granite is the strongest commercially available stone houses are built from. It’s also more commonly available, which means transport costs aren’t as high because a granite quarry isn’t too far from a build site. Limestone and sandstone are popular materials as well, but they aren’t as strong or weather-resistant as granite.

The white stains you see on your bricks are likely efflorescence, which is salt and lime buildup. To remove efflorescence stains, simply brush them away with a stiff brush. For larger, more stubborn stains, scrub the stains with a water-detergent solution.
