We also therm edged 2 inch true blue stone for the mantels and seating .
We finished off the counter door with a BBQ guys stainless steel door.
We then stained the ashlar stamp we installed with a water stain from proline and sealed the slab and walkways.

We started out with a picture of this area for the sandset paver patio .we then inserted the patio into the picture Before we did the patio...yes..we installed the picture of the patio before we did it. we are one of the few mason companies that can actually let you see what it will look like Before we do it.we can do this with brick stone OR interlocking pavers.
Here we cleaned up the old retainer wall and repaired a huge break in the wall, we then installed eldorado stone with chiseled edge cap stone on top of walls. we also redesigned the staircase and added a new wall that would hold a new iron railing.
We removed the old concrete driveway and installed a rock base compacted then installed the permeable sand pavers from Willamette greystone in a herring bone pattern and ribbon on the boarders. We then installed a new Celtic stone wall from mutual materials on each side of the driveway with cap stones.
we also did the house next door and will be getting new pictures of it when all the plantings are done..It has a radius staircase in the back with saw tooth masonry in wall inside saddle walls on a radius with saddles steps through out the wall with brick paver walkways in herringbone pattern throughout the back yard and side with stone set pavers surrounding a pond. we also install a color concrete broom finish driveway with shadow colorings in the concrete.

We brick veneered this home with some unique ideas.
The home had originally been designed for wood siding with wood blocks installed at the second floor levels.
We removed the wood blocks and designed the masonry to project out far enough to allow for airspace and still support the upper masonry.
We incorporated Combinations of saw tooth and headers and dental block design that really came out nice with a triangle of projected headers and herring bone design in the center on the upper gable areas.
Randy McKee masonry has been doing brick veneers for over 24 years, we design and build from concrete foundations for walls to the brick, stone, and concrete patios to the brick and stone veneers. from you standard masonry to your personal unique custom design.

Staircases and Patios
Here we started out installing a sand set paver patio, but the ground was clay and would absorb the water, the more rock we installed the more it sunk.
So we installed a rat slab base and mortar set the patio, we use a special technique to keep the patio pavers at a acceptable level so when we lay the pavers they are all smooth to the surface.
we then sanded the surface with a polymer sand that locks into the joints so you don't track sand into your home or have problems with sand blowing out of the joint work while cleaning.

Backyard patio with firepit & BBQ grill
This backyard patio was installed with a sand set concrete paver system from belgard, We also used the old step and added a new one to it and overlayed the old concrete with the pavers. we installed a concrete footing for the bench for the block base then veneered the block with coronado stone.Please check out the rest of the project here
Final Mock up
Here we removed the cobble stone in the back ground and kept part of the concrete panel work for the base..we tied it all together with the new concrete base and overlaid the new base with variegated bluestone , this bluestone had a very nice brown vein in it that really set it off . With the tight 3/4 to 1" joint work in a medium black help the blending of the joint work to not set if off to much. we also added the brick bench and tied into the wall where there was once a brick staircase into the flower bed area above. you can see more on this patio by clicking here

Oregonbrick Inc
Here the customer had a basic fireplace and pizza oven design we had general idea to work from, we then designed it to make the pizza oven and the outdoor fireplace each stand out on there own even thought they are side by side. The fire box of the pizza oven was going to be a 36 inch round oven but felt the oven would be to small for a fire and the pizza. it would work but it would be very cramped, so we designed a oven that was rectangle and gradually rounded in until I was able to close the top . This will allow the best of both worlds , one of heating it and the other with the added space of a barrel type oven laid sideways for extra space. the oven will heat like a round oven and the new 1850 degree ceramic blankets will hold the heat in along with the 2 inch thick thermal floor with firebrick on top.

Have a tight area where you want to be able to get
down from above to a lower part of your yard but
don't have enough room for a straight
staircase?..well we can fix those staircase problems
in those tight areas.
This Radius staircase allowed for a nice transition down to the
new stamp concrete patio area.
the staircase was only 8 feet to the far side , this even allowed for
room to walk along the back side of the yard to work on the grape
vines without stepping out into the staircase.
The Retainer walls were built i block with the customer planing to
rock the surface himself at a later date.
we capped the wall with a mud sill cap,
This wall was poured solid with rebar through out to hold back the dirt.
we poured the footing with the sand finish concrete parameter then poured the stamp concrete and
water stained the surface, then finished it off with a acrylic sealer.
