"Gary called me within minutes of posting project on site. Met with me the next day (end of June 2023) to go over project. Told me his per square foot rate, which I agreed to. Bragged about how sourced his stone locally and also told me that the stone was included in the quote. Gary said he was 3 weeks out. I agreed to everything. Said he would get me samples the following. Did not hear from him the following week. Called him. He seemed aggravated that I was calling him after he did not respond to my text or phone calls. Said he would call me the next day to tell me when he would show up to do job. Never called and did no hear from him again. Strung me along for a month and then ghosted me. Very unprofessional, rude and would not use him if he was the last mason on earth."

When you pull into your driveway after a long day, you should be pleased by the sight that greets you. If your home isn’t living up to its full potential, turn to the pros at TDL Construction Corporation in Concord, NH. We can update your siding or roofing easily and at a price you can afford. Plus, our siding contractors are full-time employees, so you won’t have to worry about hiring any subcontractors! Call 855-743-4640 now to speak with one of our siding contractors for more information.
"The initial job was to install soffit under the large roof overhang. The roofing is angled. Where the angle edges met there was a 1" gap. The gap leads directly into the attic allowing cold air, insects and small animals in. That was insulated before the soffit installed and sealed over the gap. I had another contractor do my siding and their work was amateurish and poorly done in a number of places. TDL cleaned up the poor workmanship and replaced sections of the gutters damaged by the previous contractor. TDL's repairs were done well and improved the look of the siding errors. Very pleasant to work with. Explained all the changes they were going to make verifying we were completely on the same page. Suggested alterations which turned out great. Paid attention to the details which improved the look and functionality."

Brick or stone tuck pointings FAQs
Minor hairline cracks in mortar are normal as bricks settle over time. However, deep vertical cracks that widen, stair-step cracks, L-shaped cracks, or extensive horizontal fissures may indicate potential foundation issues. Since mortar doesn't last as long as brick—which can endure for over a century with proper maintenance—it's important to have any concerning cracks inspected by a mason to ensure your home's structural integrity.
Cleaning mortar off bricks removes old stains and debris, ensuring that new mortar adheres properly and lasts longer. Eliminating dust, moss, and lichen helps achieve a strong bond during repointing or mortar application. Professionals typically use a wire brush or pressure washer to clean the surfaces, depending on the level of contamination. If bricks are being completely replaced, cleaning the old material isn't necessary.
With proper care, brick walls can last over 100 years. Regular maintenance, such as repointing mortar every 30 to 50 years, helps preserve the wall's durability and appearance. Consistent upkeep and routine inspections ensure your brick wall remains a strong and valuable part of your home for generations.
If you want to avoid the high expenses of full brick wall restoration, installing fiber cement siding is a viable alternative. Fiber cement siding offers lasting durability and low maintenance while enhancing energy efficiency. This option costs $2 to $6 per square foot and, when installed by a professional, protects against water damage and improves your home’s exterior appearance.
