Reading the scorecards

Rating is the live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated the business. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 5.0 from a few people carries less weight than the same score from many. Recency reflects how recently customers are still leaving reviews.

What shapes masonry pricing in San Diego (2026)

No prices are published here. Masonry quotes typically move with the size and height of a wall, the material (brick, block, stone or pavers), the amount of demolition and base preparation, and whether drainage or footings are included. Ask each contractor for a written scope that names the materials.
