"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. Stetson's Masonry has added significant value to my homes, turning them into places of beauty and relaxation. If you're in search of a masonry contractor who can turn your dreams into reality with precision, artistry, and a deep passion for their craft, I wholeheartedly recommend Stetson's Masonry. They have not only constructed structures but also created lasting memories and moments of joy for me and my loved ones. Thank you, Stetson's Masonry, for your exceptional work!"

"While hauling the concrete to our backyard, a couple of the guys ran through our neighbor's yard with their machines. However, they quickly corrected that and didn't end up doing too much damage to our neighbor's lawn. They were very conscientious about their work, and only brought in a big crew when necessary. The new patio looks fabulous! By the suggestion of the foreman, we did a colored concrete to match the house and they did an acid stain on the existing pad to tie everything together. Couldn't be happier with the outcome! The whole process was very quick and at the right price, and the extra cost of colored concrete was well worth it! Would definitely recommend Rockhard!"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Yes, limewash on brick can accumulate dust over time. Its porous nature can attract dust particles, especially in environments with high levels of dust or dirt. Additionally, if the limewash surface is left unsealed, it may be more prone to collecting dust. Additionally, incorrectly applied limewash will generate dust. Causes include applying it too thickly instead of thin layers and not allowing enough drying time between layers. Regular maintenance, such as gentle cleaning or dusting, can help mitigate dusty issues.

Chimney mortar typically lasts 20 to 30 years, depending on its quality, local weather conditions, and maintenance. Over time, exposure to moisture, freezing, and thawing cycles can cause mortar to deteriorate, leading to cracks and gaps. Regular inspections and timely repairs, such as repointing or tuckpointing, can extend the lifespan of chimney mortar by ensuring the structure's integrity.

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.

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.

A mason lays brick or stone together, sometimes with mortar in between the bricks and stones, and sometimes without mortar, also called a dry-stack or surface bonding. Examples of work masons do include:

  • Brick, stone, or cement block houses and buildings

  • Freestanding stone or brick walls

  • Chimneys with wood-burning fireplaces

  • Cement block basement or crawl space walls
