"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.

"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

Yes, you can cut patio stones with a circular saw. Similar to using an electric grinder, you will need to use a diamond blade as this is the most effective blade for cutting a material like stone. The stone must be wet when using a circular saw to ensure the cut is smooth.

Masonry work tends to be more expensive because the materials can be costly, such as natural stone and brick. Masonry is also very labor intensive, typically making up 50% or more of the final project cost. In addition, quality masonry work requires years of training and experience, as with any skilled trade.

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

Do not use super glue to hang lights on brick unless you want your lights up year-round. Hot glue is a better choice because it’s easily removable with a small amount of rubbing alcohol. Super glue is very hard to remove, and you could tear off parts of the brick in the removal process.

A traditional German schmear uses mortar, making it unsuitable for adherence to painted surfaces. Professionals recommend removing any existing paint before applying mortar. However, you can rough up the painted surface and clean it to test if the mortar will stick. Remember that the underlying paint's texture and color may affect the schmear's final appearance—so starting with a bare brick wall will ensure the ideal finish.
