Second time I have used Wonderland to fix chimneys. Both times excellent. After consulting with them, we decided to rebuild a 50 year old chimney. Wow it makes the house stand out now. Thanks again.

Like the Grimm fairy tale, The Ugly Duckling, Wonderland Masonry transformed a rental into a beautiful Swan. The brick driveway and bluestone walkway/stoop are simply amazing! Thank you to Enrique and crew!

Enrique and his crew have completed 3 separate jobs for me over the last several years. He bid around half of another contractor to repair my cracked and failing chimney cap. He used a drone to inspect it and take up-close photos so we could both see the damage. They did the job perfectly in a day. Then we had a 7' retaining wall completely collapse around the garage that needed to be rebuilt completely. Wonderland was the only contractor I could find who even wanted to bid the job. Again, he gave a fair price and completed a very hard job with his crew and the proper equipment. This summer, they repaired the front stone walkway and stoop - it looks great! They have proven to me to be a quality company, reliable with fair pricing.

We were referred to Enrique and his team at Wonderland for masonry work on our chimney and we couldn’t be happier. They were very reasonable and did fantastic work. Their team found a bit more work that had to be done (replacing the clay flue tiles) and they did that and charged us a very reasonable additional amount. We will need to do redo our walkways in the next couple of years and we can’t wait to work with them again. It’s a no brainer to work with this team.

Enrique and the Wonderland team did a great job. Full chimney & adjoining wall rebuild plus tuckpointing around entire house.

Update: While we got off to a rough start, after Wonderland committed to resolving our communication issue, repairs went smoothly and the work was top notch. June 2024: Wonderland stopped communicating after I informed them I wanted to proceed with the project. I've tried emailing, texting and calling and no response. The start date has come and gone and nada. They were, however, able to promptly cash my deposit check.

We hired Enrique to completely tear down our exterior and interior fireplace/chimney. See below some before and after photos. I 100% recommend using Wonderland Masonry for all your brick needs. The quality of work is top notch, the men are always on time, diligent, hardworking guys. We couldn’t be happier with the work provided. Thank you Enrique! You are the best!
HOW TO CONSTRUCT BRICK PAVER DRIVEWAYS
Our Design & Installation Process
Looking to add brick paved driveway to your backyard? Here's what the process looks like!
- Preparation and Marking
Our team starts by marking out your driveway area to ensure precise dimensions and a gentle slope for effective drainage. This careful planning helps us achieve the ideal layout for your space.
- Excavation
We excavate the designated area, typically to a depth of 8–12 inches, depending on soil and usage. This foundation depth is tailored to ensure stability and durability for years to come.
- Laying the Base
Next, we install a base layer of compacted gravel, followed by a layer of coarse sand. Each layer is compacted to create a solid, stable foundation, minimizing future shifting.
- Edge Restraint Installation
We place edge restraints around the driveway’s perimeter. This crucial step keeps the pavers secure and prevents any spreading or shifting, even with heavy usage.
- Setting the Pavers
We lay each paver carefully, following your chosen pattern. Throughout this process, our team checks for levelness and alignment, adjusting as needed for a seamless look.
- Joint Sand and Compacting
Finally, we sweep polymeric sand into the paver joints and compact the surface to lock everything in place. This final step solidifies the structure, ensuring your driveway remains secure and beautiful.
