"I had the pleasure of working with Stetson's Masonry on multiple projects, and I can't say enough about the exceptional craftsmanship and professionalism they brought to the table. Stetson's Masonry transformed two of my homes with their stone work, creating a breathtaking indoor fireplace and a captivating outdoor fire pit. The indoor fireplace they built around my electric fireplace is nothing short of a masterpiece. The attention to detail in choosing and arranging the stones, along with the precision in construction, left me speechless. The result is not just a functional element but a work of art that enhances the entire room, radiating warmth and elegance. The outdoor fire pit they designed and built has become the heart of my outdoor living space. Stetson's Masonry didn't just construct a fire pit; they crafted a welcoming oasis that seamlessly blends with the natural surroundings. The stonework is not only visually stunning but also durable, creating a cozy atmosphere for gatherings with family and friends. What truly sets Stetson's Masonry apart is their commitment to excellence. They demonstrated reliability, professionalism, and an unmatched level of skill throughout the entire process. Their communication and collaboration skills made working with them a breeze, and they ensured that my vision was not only realized but exceeded.

"He did an excellent job fixing insufficient grout and correcting several improperly sealed areas in my downstairs walk-in shower, especially around the drain. After the repairs, he sealed the entire shower floor properly. The work was done carefully and professionally, and the shower looks noticeably better and more solid now. Communication was easy, everything was left clean, and it’s clear he takes pride in doing things the right way. I’d happily recommend him to anyone looking for a quality job."

"My project was actually the repair and painting of a large spiral front stairway going into my home. It was in pretty bad shape and the prep work took more time than the painting. Great job...good price and reliable. Jo Ann"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

No, you shouldn’t lay bricks directly on dirt. While it might seem like a shortcut, it leads to a patio that shifts, sinks, and becomes a maintenance headache. Dirt expands, contracts, and erodes—none of which mix well with long-term stability. To build something that lasts, excavate the topsoil, compact a layer of crushed gravel, and add a coarse sand-setting bed. This layered base gives your bricks proper support, allows drainage, and helps block weeds from creeping through. Cutting corners here just means you’ll spend more time—and money—repairing your brick patio later.

Brick spalling—which refers to the crumbly, flaky, or pitted appearance that can develop over time—is caused by a few different conditions. These include:

  • Climates with constant freeze-thaw cycles

  • Use of non-breathable sealants

  • High-pressure water cleaning

  • Improper installation

While you can’t do anything about the weather, you can preserve your bricks by cleaning them with soapy water and a good old-fashioned scrubbing. Pressure washers may be satisfying to use, but they can eventually wear away the surface of your bricks. If you don’t have advanced-level DIY skills in masonry, you can hire a reputable masonry contractor in your area for your project.

Brick is the closest choice when seeking to capture the timeless look of stone with a more practical and budget-friendly option. When comparing stone versus brick siding, the price range of $200,000 to $400,000 for average brick home construction is dramatically lower compared to the cost of building a stone home. If you'd like to keep the stone aesthetic without the cost, stone veneer and manufactured stone are both less expensive than real stone.

Yes, you can paint stone on the exterior of a house. It’s important to properly prep the stone by cleaning off dirt and debris. You’ll want to apply at least two coats of paint to get the most even and complete coverage. Any pinholes or missed spots, however small, can allow moisture to get into the masonry and potentially cause the paint to blister and peel from the stone.

Mortar is a mixture of sand and cement that binds materials, such as bricks, stones, and concrete blocks, together. Think of it as the glue that fills in the gaps between bricks and stones, then seals them in place to prevent damage or deterioration. Mortar also helps spread the load across a wall or structure, keeping cracks and shifting at bay.
