on our customer's requirements. We do many door installations and replacements
of rusted hollow metal frames. Openings can be made through existing walls to
accommodate your needs. CONCRETE

concrete needs. We also stamp, stain, color and do exposed aggregate finishes,

We work with large enough crews to get the job done right the first time. We have
many references from satisfied customers on file, give us a call and we will be
happy to show them to you.
CHIMNEY Most contractors can build new
chimneys, unfortunately, not always correctly. We use many pieces and types of
equipment to provide protection for landscape, roofs, siding, windows and interiors.
We can tuckpoint joints, seal masonry and cap cracks or we can rebuild any interior
or exterior areas that are beyond minor repairs with materials of excellent quality
and matchability. TUCKPOINTING Tuckpointing
usually consists of removing loose and deteriorated mortar to a depth of ½ to
¾ inch and filling joints including any joints weathered to greater depths. Cement,
lime and sand along with bonding and coloring additives are used to approximate
existing conditions. WATERPROOFING
All masonry materials, when exposed to moisture conditions, will absorb moisture.
Some materials are more porous than others. When all joints in brick or stone
are properly installed or repaired and water penetration is still a problem a
clear seal may solve the problem. We use sealers that have proven to be effective
in many applications. | |
