"In addition to laying out stone work for our front and back yards, Jed and his crew also did a lot of landscaping--removing lots of shrubs and other existing plants and putting in all new plants and trees. We had him rework stone work in the front yard and put in a stone patio and walk ways as well as a drip irrigation system in the back yard. It all came out so beautifully. We provided the overall design, Jed make several very good suggestions that we incorporated. We did most of the plant selection and he worked on getting the best prices for the majority of the plants. His crew were all very hard working, polite, professional, neat and respectful of our property. They worked fast and efficiently with a high level of quality to their work. The end result is FANTASTIC. We love how the yards look now and once all the plants are fully grown, it's going to be really lush--with a good number of the plants being drought resistant. I will say that Jed/Eco Concepts is in high demand. He was able to work our relatively small project in between much larger projects, which was fine by us as we really wanted him to do the job based on the reviews we read of his work. We were willing to wait til he had an opening and it was well worth the wait. Jed is a really nice guy, very easy to work with, has good contacts and resources for materials. I highly recommend Eco Concepts for landscaping and stone work."

"We highly recommend Cal Green Remodeling and mainly Shay! We originally hired him for our kitchen and master bathroom project. Shay had awesome ideas and he did a stunning job, much more beyond our expectations! After the kitchen project was completed… we decided to have him continue and to also remodel our two bathrooms, some structural changes to the ceiling and installing new roof, raising the ceiling (in 12”) at the entry, completely modernizing our living room by opening walls, removing old flooring, removing old rock fireplace and replacing with modern, classic tile. Exquisite. We developed a trusting relationship with Shay and his team of workers and craftsmen. They helped us with design ideas and helped us stay within our budgets, and were honest when they felt they could not accommodate. They gained our trust and respect. We recommend them with confidence and look forward to using them in future projects!"

Most professional brick step replacements require three to five working days to complete. The process begins with demolition of existing structures, followed by foundation preparation, brick installation, and finishing touches.
Weather conditions, project complexity, and the contractor's schedule can all influence the timeline. Simpler projects with fewer steps may finish more quickly, while elaborate designs or unexpected structural issues could extend the process by several days.
Spring and fall provide ideal conditions for masonry work, with moderate temperatures that allow proper mortar curing. Summer installations may require special precautions to prevent materials from drying too quickly in extreme heat, while winter projects face challenges in freezing conditions that can compromise mortar integrity.
Beyond weather considerations, scheduling during a mason's less busy season might result in more attentive service and potentially better pricing.
Permit requirements vary significantly by location. Many municipalities require permits for structural changes to entrances, especially if you're modifying the size, configuration, or adding features like railings.
The permitting process involves submitting plans, paying a permit fee, and scheduling inspections. Professional contractors often handle these requirements as part of their service. Check with your local building department before beginning work to avoid potential fines or complications.
Maintaining brick steps involves regular sweeping to remove debris, prompt cleaning of spills or stains, and annual inspection of mortar joints for signs of deterioration. During winter, use calcium chloride-based ice melt products rather than rock salt, which can damage brick surfaces.
Avoid high-pressure washing, which may erode mortar joints over time. With proper care and occasional maintenance like repointing (replacing deteriorated mortar), quality brick steps can last decades before requiring significant repairs.
