This book shows how to design, build and repair masonry like an expert, with the latest techniques and materials, step-by-step directions, safety advice and hundreds of colour illustrations. Basic techniques are described for working with mortar, making repairs to brick, mending concrete, attaching fastening and removing stains. A section on building with concrete discusses what can go wrong and why, with sage advice on preparing for the project, forms, pouring and finishing, footings and making adobe. Thorough coverage of masonry repairs and maintenance is also included, plus useful tips and special tricks of the trade.
John Kelsey is former editor in chief of Fine Woodworking magazine, the author of Furniture Projects for the Deck and Lawn and Kid Crafts: Woodworking and the editorial director for Fox Chapel Publishing.
