"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.

"I am very pleased with the work Joe's Yard Service did on my landscaping. They did the job within 2 days of discussing the work with them and then were done within a day. It looks beautiful and I'll remember them next Spring as well as any other outside jobs I need doing."

"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

Unfortunately, there are many disadvantages to stone houses. They are slow to build and the materials are pricey, both of which balloon the total cost. Stone walls require a more robust foundation, which costs more to install. Running plumbing, electrical, and HVAC through a stone house is much more difficult too, so homeowners need to seriously consider if the aesthetic benefit is worth the cost of building with stone. One of the questions to ask a masonry contractor is if a similar aesthetic can be achieved with another material.

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, or masonry mortar, is mainly used in joints and as parging for stone, brick, or cement construction. Stucco is primarily a surface material used as wall coverings. For maintenance, masonry will need repointing or replacing as damage or land shifting occurs, whereas stucco will need patching or refinishing as it tends to crack over time along with other types of wear-and-tear.

Painted exterior brick does not usually need sealing. Brick is a porous material, so you don’t want to apply a sealant that could trap moisture inside the bricks and cause erosion and structural damage. The risk of moisture-induced damage after sealing is higher in colder climates where trapped moisture can expand if it freezes. On the other hand, it makes sense to seal really old brick or kitchen backsplashes, where moisture from cooking can weaken the brick.

No, using a power sander on brick is not recommended because the force of the sander can destroy brick's fragile outer layer. Even using sandpaper on brick is discouraged because of the damage its abrasiveness can cause.
