"Had a fence and steel frame gate installed July 2023. The gate is monstrously heavy, and they did try to support the weight with a spring loaded wheel at the end. Less than one year later, the gate is almost impossible to close. It sags under its own weight and must be lifted up to reach the latch. I have called and texted several time to get a quote to have the gate repaired. It took a week to get them to send someone to inspect it and give me a quote. They finally sent me a quote, but I have asked multiple times when they could schedule me, and to send a written quote to my email. It has been over a week and I get no response. Today I texted them to see if they would recommend another company to complete the repairs instead. Very bad customer service."

From design to installation to long-term support, we'll create an amazing outdoor living area for you and your family. We've been established in Tarrant County since 1946. We know what works in the often difficult North Texas climate. Call on us for Softscapes, Hardscapes, installations on new properties or to update existing properties. We do organic maintenance programs too. Our minimum installation project size is $4000. Project financing available.
"After the Feb 2021 freeze and multiple dead shrubs, I decided to go with xeriscape this time. Marshall Grain was the only company that responded to my calls and I am not disappointed. Nancy is knowledgeable, easy to work with, and on time. The staff that came to do the work? You could not ask for a better group of guys. Although we are still short a couple of plants everything is spaced out well so no large gaps. They improved the aesthetics by running downspouts underground to a pop-up drain. Certainly not the cheapest landscape company I am sure but, you get what you pay for and for me, it is well worth the money."

"We recently had the pleasure of working with LorVen for a series of home improvement and home decor projects, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, both the husband and wife team were incredibly thorough and patient in walking us through every detail of the project. They took the time to explain each step, making sure we understood what was being done and why — which was especially helpful given our budget constraints. What really stood out was their commitment to delivering quality work while being mindful of costs. They offered several budget-friendly alternatives and even recommended design or material changes that saved us money — in some cases, at a cost to themselves. Their integrity and dedication to doing what’s best for the client is truly rare. They also guided us with thoughtful suggestions aligned with Vastu, helping us make better choices that enhanced the energy and layout of our space. We highly recommend them."

"Workmen showed up on time. Grounded out the old loose mortar, repointed and sealed all the crack. Also did caulking around the windows where needed. I’ll be using them again for my failing retaining wall. "

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.
