September light does something kind to a Taylor brick ranch — it warms the face of the house and, at the same time, shows every joint that has started to open. Tee's Landscaping & Masonry Repairs works both sides of that view: repointing brick and block, resetting front steps and walkway pieces that Michigan freeze-and-thaw has shifted, and rebuilding the low walls that hold a bed in place. The other half of the job is the green one — mowing, trimming, edging and the cleanups that keep a yard from swallowing its own hardscape. Masonry rewards patience, because a joint packed right will outlast the person who packed it. Between the two trades, a front yard and the front of the house end up telling the same story.
