I’m planning a trip around New Jersey and have become interested in some of the older homes and historic properties in the area. It made me wonder how owners usually deal with aging brick, stone walls, patios, and other exterior work, especially on older properties that are exposed to winter weather. For anyone who owns or manages a property there, do you normally handle small repairs yourself, or is it better to bring in Masonry contractors in New Jersey for inspections and larger repairs? I’d be interested to hear what other property owners recommend.
