"I am extremely satisfied with the patio J&R installed. Rafeal and Joel were easy to work with and the entire crew was courteous, hard working and dedicated to quality. They even worked until 6p on a Friday, making sure the job was completed on-time and at the agreed upon price. What more could you ask for in a contractor? I recommend them whole heartedly."

"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

The best tool for drilling into brick or mortar is a rotary hammer drill which is a large hammer drill with low rotation speed and high torque. Regular drills with a hammer function are also excellent tools for drilling into brick when the diameter of the hole is 1/2 inch or less. It might be possible to drill into brick with a standard drill if you’re only drilling a very small hole, but note that masonry work will put a lot of wear on a standard drill, and the tool may not be strong enough to get through brick.

Choose from an abundance of natural and synthetic options when perfecting your hardscape design. Stone veneer costs a bit less, holds up against the tests of time and weather, and also works best in curves and complex walls.

Natural stone, however, provides an organic look to a lawn while providing just as much strength as veneer. Don't forget you can chat with your mason about other common wall materials like brick, cinderblock, and concrete.

You should generally drill into the mortar joints when installing shutters on brick. Mortar is softer, which makes drilling easier and puts less strain on your tools. It also lowers the risk of cracking a brick—something that’s a lot harder to fix. Mortar holds fasteners well enough for standard shutters, and if you ever need to patch the holes later, it’s a much simpler job than dealing with damaged brick. Just keep in mind that if your mortar joints are too thin or the hardware calls for brick anchoring, you'll need to check the manufacturer’s recommendations and adjust accordingly.

You can use adhesive strips to hang lights on brick—just make sure you get outdoor mounting tape and not just any old double-sided tape for your project.

To stain brick, you should use a product specifically formulated for brick, concrete, or other masonry surfaces. These stains are designed to penetrate the porous surface of the brick and bond with it. This is different from paint, which sits on the surface and is prone to peeling, flaking, and trapping moisture that can cause damage. Water-based brick stains are often recommended because they are easy to apply, even for DIYers, and they allow the brick to breathe. Avoid using regular paint on brick, as it will not adhere properly and can lead to future maintenance problems.
