Rustic Brick and Stone

I went to their location and told the man I wanted some used brick. He sold me a pallet of used brick and was even able to tell me where it came from -- one of the old hotels on K Street which had been torn down. They delivered it to my home and placed the pallet in the driveway.

I needed stone to reface my fireplace, which had dark green marble on it. Very outdated and not at all to my taste. I tried two masons on Angie's List but neither of them seemed capable of sustaining a conversation or returning calls. I went to Rustic Brick to buy stone and also to ask if they could recommend a mason. Bryan at Rustic Brick was extremely helpful, patient, and attentive. I feel that I got a good price on quartzite stone panels and travertine stone for the hearth. Bryan placed the order and was on the spot to let me know when it came in. He also recommended a mason, Joe Porto, Jr. of Topline Masonry and coordinated with Joe to pick it up. Meanwhile, Joe came out to my house, gave me an estimate, and performed the work quickly and efficiently a couple of weeks after I placed my order with Rustic. Joe even came back on a Sunday to effect a couple of very small repairs. The cost of 10 square feet of quartzite panels and 11 square feet of travertine was $180. Joe charged $600 for his work, which was excellent and took all of a morning. I really can't say enough good things about Rustic and Joe Porto.

I wrote a review on Rustic Brick in June, commenting on their great customer service. We've been to their business several times since then, looking at different pavers and stone and asking tons more questions. Bryan was always helpful and patient. Not sure I would have been, as many times as we went back! Because it was so pleasant to work with them - plus they have a great choice of brick and stone - we did purchase our paving stone from them when we did our front walk. We used Belgard Urbana Stone and quot;Autumnand quot; - and it looks amazing. Bryan also recommended someone to do the work - Burton Tile (916-289-7734) - and we went with them. Burt and his guys were awesome. They listened to our ideas and came up with a plan for our walkway that is beautiful. Our walkway is everything I had been wanting for a long time - it's a composite of all of the ideas in my head plus my pictures copied off of Pinterest! I would absolutely recommend using Rustic Brick if you're going to do any kind of home improvement project. They have the pavers and stone plus their showroom has wood stoves and even some home decorating items. Can't go wrong with them! Also highly recommend Burton Tile - you won't go wrong with them, either.
