  1. What a Masonry Contractor Can Do for Your Boring Concrete Floor If you have a plain, uninspiring pool area, or perhaps you are tired of that gravel driveway, then it is time to talk to a masonry contractor. These professionals do more than merely pour cement or concrete into a space. In fact, many of them are talented artist who can take a boring, uninviting space and turn it into beautiful works of art. Their years of experience and knowledge allow them to know exactly how to take that basic space and make it an eye catching area. So, what exactly does a masonry contractor do?
