I was interested in having some repair work to my chimney that was showing signs of brick spalling and the top cap had some cracks and appeared to be separating from the chimney. I don’t know much about this repair work so I decided to get quotes based on recommendations and reviews that I found online using Google Maps and Yelp. I selected AB Masonry because Adam had zero negative reviews and the photos that customers shared looked like he did really good work. His estimate was in the middle of the three firms selected. Adam and his assistant removed the cap and reworked the top 4 layers of bricks. He also repaired several spalling bricks throughout the chimney. Once the repairs were complete he also applied a waterproofing to the chimney. As I watched him do this I noticed that he was also applying silicone sealant to the top of the new chimney cap. This surprised me as I had an earlier discussion regarding whether there was need to calk the ceramic flue-to-cap joint as part of the job? He said that it wasn’t necessary because they were similar materials and a good bond would form. When I asked about the sealant he said he was filling cracks in the new cap that had formed. This concerned me and when I eventually looked at the cap it looked worse to me than the original cap that had failed. He said he would stand by his work and warranty that it would not fail for the foreseeable future. One of the other items that I mentioned to him was that we may have interest in eventually selling the house. When I saw the cracks I mentioned that I had concerns that a buyer home inspection may flag the cracks as a chimney issue that needed to be addressed. Adam said there wasn’t anything that needed to be done and he would stand by his work. This is unsatisfactory to me because we paid for a chimney repair and expected it to be without cracks. If I knew this was going to happen I would have not had him do the work. I am disappointed with this chimney rework result and would not recommend Adam based on my experience. I’ve included photos of the before and after rework chimney and cap.
Adam and crew did an excellent job on our patio. They were conscientious, flexible, and worked with integrity. We would hire them again. :)
Adam and his team w/Tyrell and his son Samuel worked tirelessly to bring our vision to life. We made corrections along the way and they came through every time. Thanks Adam!!

I had a chimney that was crumbling and in dire need of help. Adam came out and we talked about the many options. We decided on a great solution and he gave a quote and a timeline. I wasn't in a hurry so we scheduled a about a month out. His crew showed up on the day they said and you can tell Adam is a great guy. Super friendly. His crew was nice and efficient. The end result was exactly what we talked about and exactly how I wanted. In fact I was even a bit surprised it looked so good. The price was fair. Overall I give my whole backing to these guys. Use them . You won't be disappointed.

Adam did a great job refinishing our paver driveway. The driveway is very large. He was able to complete the job within the time frame estimated . I would recommend Adam for paver and landscape work.
