Product Description
-- Covers tools and materials, laying block and brick, and more


Amazon.com Review
With this specialty book specifically for those about to embark on a do-it-yourself masonry repair or building project, Kreh, a recognized third-generation master mason, provides all the basics on tools and materials, estimating materials needed for any project, descriptions and diagrams of bond patterns and wall types, fundamentals of laying brick and block, and clear, useful information on masonry repair and restoration for preexisting work. Chimneys, retaining walls, foundations, decorative walks and planters, steps, and all varieties of construction masonry are covered here with excellent diagrams; explanations of terminology, tools, and materials; and photographs that vividly illustrate some of the finer points of masonry work.

Kreh's many years as a teacher of masonry techniques and practices shine through for the reader with no prior knowledge of masonry with clear, easy-to-understand terminology and a step-by-step approach, and his extensive experience and knowledge will open the eyes of longtime professionals with pointers and shortcuts they may not know themselves. This is a thorough, complete guide to masonry for all. --Mark A. Hetts
