Certified/accredited by the BBB, proud member of WAFRP, and vetted on Angie's List. Call us today for a free estimate.

"My basement had wall crack steps, horizontal cracks, bowing issues along with moisture issues. Water would come in the basement regularly. Everything was taken care of by RENEW about 6-7 years ago. They replaced some of the foundation bricks, installed a drainage system, placed reinforcement rods along the walls and installed a sump pump. RENEW also helped me with additional request as the project progressed (removing personal items, etc). On the exterior they added and pitched dirt along with placing decorative rocks. I’m writing this 6-7 years later so I’m sure I’ve left a few things out. Since having the work done, my basement has been dry. THERE IS NO WATER/MOISTURE PROBLEMS AT ALL! RENEW is a family business that takes pride in their work. They are dependable, personable, reasonable with cost and most of all knowledgeable. Most reviews are done relatively close to when the work is performed. My review is years later which should tell anyone reading this, they do excellent work at a reasonable price."

"Where do I begin with this review. I stopped at the West Allis Farmers Market AND the West Allis Car Show where the booth was busy and I waited for a chance to enter for the yeti cooler drawing and an inspection after the flood this summer. The conversations that were happening around the booth from what seemed like employees or friends of employees is what caused me to walk away TWICE. I am not sure what kind of company you'd like to be known for but the conversations I heard were appalling to say the least. But I went to the review page and saw comments from the General Manager when a potential customer had voiced concerns - this is the example your employees follow. They are a product of this type of environment. Sounds like you need to get a handle on your staff from the front desk all the way up to your GM. Sleeping around, moving from department to department. Might want to get a handle on that before you have an STD outbreak on your hands. Id hate to be the significant other or spouse of an employee that works here. And after reading the reviews I'd hate to be a paying customer bullied by a company. I also have a "no soliciting" sign and what was left in my door. Soliciting. But reading reviews I have seen this multiple times being expressed. Education stated it was provided but seems the GM fell short here too."

Roberto Nova Landscaping was established in 2018. I have had a lot of experience working in landscaping but decided in 2018 to start my own business. I have the ability to do anything you need in the lawn services area including planting new trees, removing old ones, edging, brick pathways, mowing and spring and fall cleanup. We even can help you out in the winter with snowplowing! We have even done specialty installations of things like dog yard preparation and fencing. Just give us a call and we will give you a free quote1

"Had them fill in my back yard with soil and then sod to match the level of a new poured concrete patio. Turned out great. The grading is a nice smooth transition from my patio to yard now instead of a 2ft drop. They were very timely, and affordable. Will definately reach out to them again for future projects."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

No, you don’t need to soak the brick before cutting it by hand. In fact, cutting a wet brick can make it harder to see your score lines and may cause the chisel to slip. Soaking is sometimes used with power tools to reduce dust, but for hand-cutting, it’s best to work with dry bricks for better control and visibility.

Costs range from $10 to $30 per square foot, depending on material type and labor.

Two types of masonry are veneer masonry and solid masonry. Veneer masonry is thin brick or stone material attached to the face of a building. With veneer masonry, the walls support the weight of the masonry products rather than the masonry being built on a concrete footing. Solid masonry is a wall or other brick or stone structure built on a concrete footing, and the masonry supports itself.

Some older brick material is extremely hard, making it tough to create a hole. Rather than using a typical wood drill bit, always use a masonry drill bit when drilling into brick. For extremely hard brick, using a power drill with a hammer function may give you better results. The drill bit will heat up as it goes into the extremely hard brick, so you may need to stop after a few minutes and allow the bit to cool before starting to drill again.

Depending on the amount of soot present, you can vacuum some of it using a brush attachment on your vacuum cleaner. Then, remove the leftovers with a mild cleaner, such as dish soap or vinegar mixed with water. Before applying a cleaning solution, saturate the bricks with clean water to prevent the cleaner from penetrating beyond the surface and causing structural damage to the bricks.
