"An estimator came to the house for an egress window install. They provided a written estimate including work on a crack in the foundation. I was to call them in a few weeks to schedule the work. When I called I was informed the phone number was not active. I tried email and text with no reply. This appears to be a scam operation?"

"Our 30 yr old brick patio had seen its better days and we were ready for a makeover. So I went on Angie?s list and found E K Masonry. Made a call to Eljon and he came to our home, reviewed the area and gave us not just an estimate but ideas as well to help us decide on a final product. After a few days deciding and looking over a Cambridge catalogue he provided us we decided to go with Eljon and never so glad we did. Eljon and his Crew are very cordial, friendly, down to earth and polite. The day they started they wasted no time getting down to it. They worked like ?killer bees? and in 2 days they had our 30 yr old brick patio turned into a beautiful paver haven. My wife and I both were lost for words. It?s just an awesome makeover and we couldn?t be happier with it AND the cost. I highly recommend them! E K Masonry will definitely be our ?One Stop Company? for all our future masonry/paver projects. My only regret is I was unable to give them 10+ stars!"

Cracks in brick mortar are expected after 20 to 30 years. Mortar doesn’t last nearly as long as brick, which can last hundreds of years with proper upkeep. For safety and the most cost-efficient solution, have a professional mason inspect cracks in brickwork. Most of the time, it’s cheaper to fix it early than wait until the problem gets worse.
Whether you need to clean bricks before repairing them depends on the problem. If they're dirty or growing moss and lichen and you're doing a simple repair job like repointing the mortar, cleaning the bricks is probably a good idea before attempting repair. However, if you remove the bricks to replace them with new ones, there's little point in cleaning the old ones.
You can prevent bricks from damage by properly grading your property and ensuring it slopes away from your house, regularly cleaning your gutters, and ensuring trees aren't growing too close to the walls and putting pressure on them with their roots. Also, regularly check the pipework that is affixed to the brick for leaks. Every decade or two, when the mortar is crumbling, get it repointed or tuckpointed to prevent further damage.
