The best craftsman is the professional masonry contractor. Masonry structures are notable for their beauty, versatility, and ability to survive earthquakes and fire.
Clay brick is the oldest manufactured product and has been used in building construction for more than 6,000 years. Clay brick is only one aspect of masonry. Your masonry contractor works with these mediums: stone, mortar, grout, cements, plasters and stucco, concrete, cast stone, and other earthen material like adobe and terra cotta, as well as various coatings to preserve and protect your installation.
As building technologies go, masonry is often much more expensive than wood construction, but is desirable and is pleasing to the eye. Using stone and brick can make a building look as though it has stood for 200 years. On the opposite foot, concrete can be used for a more modern industrial appearance. Both can be done through the skill and craftsmanship of a quality, experienced masonry contractor.

The Florida peninsula, warmed by surrounding subtropical and tropical waters and cooled by the trade winds, is famous for its pleasant climate, abundant sunshine, and scenery. The NW of Florida is a gently rolling panhandle area, cut into by deep swamps along the Gulf coast. The St. Marys River in the northeast and the Perdido River in the northwest form part of the boundary with Georgia and Alabama. Much of the east coast is shielded from the Atlantic Ocean by narrow sandbars and barrier islands that protect the shallow lagoons, rivers, and bays. Immediately inland, pine and palmetto flatlands stretch from the Georgia border almost to the southern tip of the state. Central Florida abounds in lakes, with Lake Okeechobee being the largest. Florida's SW coast, on the Gulf of Mexico, is dotted with tiny islands, and the Florida Keys, extending south and west from the southern tip of the state, are linked to the mainland by a causeway. Florida is separated from Cuba to the south by the Straits of Florida.
