Ask a Pro How to restore brick THE
ENEMIES OF MASONRY AND MORTAR—AGE, WATER, FOUNDATION SETTLEMENT, TREES AND BUSHES—CAN BE FOILED BY SPECIALISTS I Cracked brick walls must be repaired to prevent water penetration. The right mortar is the key to successful repair. Brick Restoration’s patented synthetic mortar is flexible and moves with settlement. I Unsecured walls (brick that has broken free from the ties) are an integrity issue. Brick Restoration’s patented wall fastening system fixes the problem without rebuilding. I Damaged walls often require new bricks. Brick Restoration has rare bricks, a network to other brick yards and a laboratory that “clones” impossible-to-find bricks. I Finding the source of a leak is the biggest, most difficult issue. Brick Restoration has developed a system that addresses the root cause. I Stains are a persistent problem. Masonry can simply become dirty. Brick Restoration returns it to its original, stain-free beauty. I Brick Restoration repairs leaning or stained chimneys and repairs damaged components (flue cap, metal cap, fire box).
Serving Houston, the Gulf coast and North Texas, Brick Restoration, Inc. accepts jobs of any size, exterior and interior. The company’s artisans use a combination of 21st century proprietary products, Old World craftsmanship and meticulous artistry to restore masonry to its original beauty.
JUST LIKE NEW START
OUT THE NEW YEAR WITH A NEW LOOK—RENEW AND REVITALIZE YOUR BRICK, MASONRY AND MORTAR Robert Zumeta, president, Brick Restoration, Inc. “When I first came to this area from Cuba, it was clear to me that not many people knew how to restore brick facades. So I started this business in which we restore all types of masonry. Damage to brick and masonry wall happens for any number of reasons. Sometimes there’s an accident, maybe a storm. Or it might just be the passage of time—after about 30 years, it is normal to see wear-and-tear with brick. “The mortar used in the repair work is very important. Most mortar is made of sand and cement, but we mix our own acrylic-based mortar that

withstands the weather by expanding with rising temperatures and also moves as the house settles.
Rober t Zumeta and the staf f of Brick Restoration
“With brick restoration, it is essential to address structural issues first, but sometimes the repair work is simply cosmetic. Either way, Brick Restoration has skilled technicians who are dedicated to doing the best work in the industry.”

Ask a Pro How to buy at auction S MART P EOPLE B UY AT A UCTIONS … …while having fun, saving money and finding something totally unique. Why? I It’s fun. Auctions are for those people who have special feelings about the things they surround themselves with. If you like the furnishings of your home to make you feel joyous, then you’ll like Gallery Auctions. I Auctions are easy. Look for an auction house where the atmosphere is casual and comfortable. If you’re a first-timer at Gallery Auctions, you’re invited to come and watch. Don’t buy until you are ready. When you find something you like, you’ll find several options on how to buy: absentee bids, phone bids, shopping on the Web site or participating in the live auction. I There’s a whole lot more than antiques. Gallery Auctions is also a resource for new furniture, straight off the showroom floor at High Point, N.C. Additionally, Vice President Jonathan Goodling has spent the past few years developing relationships around the world for mid-century modern pieces, a look that is very today.
For 24 years, Vines has been the go-to auctioneer in Houston. In addition to her work at Gallery Auctions, she conducts auctions at charity events such as Houston Children’s Charity, Houston Astros Wives, the Heart Ball and Star of Hope and many others.
AN ALTERNATE SHOPPING OPPORTUNITY: GALLERY AUCTIONS Vikki Vines, owner-auctioneer, Gallery Auctions, Inc. recently spent some time in New Orleans where she was treated to a site tour of two parade costume providers, legends since the 1930s. “There were masks, boas, bolts of fabric — from theatrical cloth to Italian wool. Ever ything was lovingly preser ved,” she says. “And I did it all with an eye towards bringing it to Houston.” “This is only one example of the extraordinar y items

In some par ts of the countr y, people grow up going to auctions — it’s par t of their regular shopping routine. But in Houston, only a fraction of the people take advantage of what we have to offer. You could really surprise yourself and end up with far more than you thought you would.”

Ask a Pro How to plan a home theater WANT TO WATCH MOVIES IN A THEATER ROOM? START BY SETTING THE MOOD AND BUDGET I Identify the room or area for your home theater. I Use a custom home theater company for planning, equipment and advice. I Decide on the room’s purpose. Will it include a pool table or other items? I Determine the budget. Theater rooms can cost from $10,000 to $20,000 for the most basic equipment and furnishings. I Get the room’s measurements and layout before you shop. I Decide on audio/speaker placement. Should you hear sound in other rooms? I Decide on lighting. The room will need to be fairly dark. How will you adjust this? I Do you want to see or conceal the audio/video equipment. I Do you want one remote to control all aspects of the room? I Allow 30–45 days to deliver and install equipment. Furniture can take longer.
Leather Shoppes began selling leather furniture 22 years ago and for the past 10 years expanded into custom home theater.

Ask a Pro Prepare for an elevator T HE
MECHANICS OF OWNING A RESIDENTIAL ELEVATOR — MADE EASY I Elevators can come in many sizes, from a one-person cab to 15 square feet, depending on your needs and space requirements. I The manufacturer is critical. Marchal/ Stevenson Elevator Co. works with Inclinator Company of America one of the major names in the industry. I Choosing the proper drive system is an essential step in selecting the ideal elevator for your specific situation. There are many options available and each work best under different job conditions. Rely on an expert like Marchal/Stevenson Elevator to guide you through the process. I A glass shaft outside the house? The wood species for the interior of the cab?

Ask a Pro How to buy a rug R UG EXPERTS M EHDI A BEDI , P H .D., AND LISA SLAPPEY, PH.D., OFFER THESE TIPS : I Begin with the rug, and design the room around it. I Measure your room for minimum and maximum rug sizes. I Think of the colors you can and cannot use. I Set a realistic budget. I Make an appointment to view rugs so the seller can give you full attention. I Develop a working relationship with a rug expert. I Familiarize yourself with the marketplace. I Educate yourself by taking a course on rugs. I Be sure the seller will be available to help you in the future. Avoid going-out-of-business sales, auctions, and Internet sales. I Ask about return and trade-in policies. I Be prepared to take several rugs home on approval before you buy.

PRIDE OF OWNERSHIP OWNING
A PERSIAN RUG IS A DELIGHT ; BUYING ONE DOESN’T HAVE TO BE A HASSLE Mehdi Abedi, Ph.D., and Lisa Slappey, Ph.D., Co-owners, Pride of Persia Rug Co. “A handwoven rug can turn a house into a home. Many buyers, though, are daunted by selecting rugs. Much of that fear has to do with the reputation of the rug market as arbitrary, confusing, deceptive and full of pushy salespeople. Find a rug expert you can trust. Be patient. Before you buy, learn enough about rugs to find out what you like and what works in your home. The choices may seem overwhelming, but you can focus on rugs with real potential by determining your size, color, design and budget requirements.
Lisa Slappey, Ph.D., and Mehdi Abedi, Ph.D., Pride of Persia Rug Co.
“Beginning with the rug can simplify the design process for your room. The rug should be an anchor piece. With the rug as the starting point, selecting colors and patterns for the walls and upholstery becomes much easier. If you don’t have the luxury of building up from the rug, take a swatch of fabric, a pillow or a paint chip along with your measurements when you look for rugs.”
