"“Above and beyond” is the best way to describe the job Art did on my masonry. They were reasonably priced, did exceptional work, finished well ahead of schedule and even did unexpected repairs as part of the job. Also, Art keeps his word which is rare characteristic in this business as I have found. If you want to the best possible service in masonry, call Art!"

"What a wonderful experience! We needed alot of work done on our chimney as well as work on the first floor brick of the exterior of our tudor-style home. It was built back in 1976 and given the steep incline it was very difficult to see exactly how bad it really was unless a scaffold was put up to do the estimate. Once the scaffold was put up to start the work the extent of deterioration was revealed, which was more than anticipated. They alerted us to this but did the additional work. Their work was amazing! Very fine with attention to detail even though their profit had to have been muc less. The selection of brick and mortar that would blend in with the 1976 brick and mortar that was there was outstanding. Price was very fair. I cannot recommend them enough. Not only can you trust them, but you will be so very happy with their skill, expertise and their work product. I would not consider anyone else if future masonry work is ever needed down the road."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

Mortar and thinset both serve the same purpose—tile adhesion—but have different compositions and use-cases. Thinset is heatproof and presents a wide range of possibilities due to the added polymers. Mortar is typically used for bonding stones and brick. Thinset is rarely used outside, while mortar is rarely used inside.

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.

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.

Dekton is worth the money for homeowners who want a nonporous countertop that resists heat, stains, water, scratches, and UV damage. It comes in a wide array of colors and patterns at various price points to suit different renovation budgets. Dekton is not worth the cost for homeowners who are particularly worried about chipping or cracking.

You will repoint over a fraction of the old mortar, but you should scrape away 1/2 to 1 inch of mortar from the joints before repointing. Otherwise, the repointing is only masking the weakened mortar instead of actually replacing it, which could put your chimney at risk of bigger, more expensive damages later on.
