Our front porch on our 1939 home had a fascia of brick that was loose and falling off. The…read moreflagstone on top had begun to crack apart without enough support under it. After I removed it, I found that most of the block support behind that was also loose or missing. I put in a call to several contractors for quotes. Brickworks was the first to respond and came up with an innovative repair plan. All others immediately said the whole porch would need replaced at almost 2x Brickworks quote. Decided to take a chance and was quite pleased. They repaired the structure, installed new fascia brick and were able to salvage some flagstone pieces to repair the surface of the porch. Everything was coated with waterproofing. However, when they were done they did an amazing cleanup and even repaired and seeded a few sq ft of damaged grass and reinstalled mulch around the porch. You would never have known that they were there except for the fact that the porch looked amazing. This work was done last year. It weathered great during the winter. I've always meant to post a review but never got around to it. I'd get a guilty feeling every time I'd see their trailer. Today I couldn't take it any more and just had to post. Would recommend them without reservation!

We went with AGC in part because my husband's former company had used them previously. When we called we expected a wait before they would do the work, but they must have piggybacked us with another job in the area as they completed the new driveway within 2 weeks of our call. Andrew and the crew were quick and efficient. Our sprinkler guy also paid them a compliment, as when he saw the new driveway he expected there would be necessary repairs when they turned on the system, but everything was fine.

Overall the porch looks nice but it wasn't worth the hassle we had to put up with to get it done. Very disappointing because we really liked the guys that did the work; they were very friendly and worked quickly and efficiently, and we had hoped to use them for future projects. We understand that stuff happens, concrete is a science, and we were told immediately that the problem would be fixed to our satisfaction. We didn't appreciate having to fight for months to make that actually happen.

Like other reviewers here, I found Greg to be very likable, responsive and enthusiastic while he…read morewas bidding for my business. I decided to give this young upstart a chance and had Pro-Active perform some very extensive masonry work on my home in June totaling over $10,000. The job was scheduled a few weeks out and once it had begun, his crew worked pretty hard to get it all completed in a few days time. Greg did a great job securing some reclaimed brick which closely matched the existing split face brick on my 2 chimneys which needed rebuilding. Greg was very proud of his extensive knowledge on color matching mortar, however I was NOT impressed with the way the tuck pointing mortar color turned out on my mortar joints. He said it would lighten up and blend in better after it 'weathers' for a few months and if not, he would come back and re-do that work. The last part of the job was to remove and replace two front window sills. The limestone was measured and cut correctly however, after they packed up and left, I noticed one of the sills was not aligned properly and not quite flush with the house. Greg said that was an easy fix and that he would come back and re-set the sill. That was 5 months ago !! Any respectable contractor addresses customer concerns and issues before, during and after the job. Like other reviewers here have experienced, Greg will not respond to phone calls or text messages once he has your money. Such a shame - a simple one hour fix would have certainly changed my opinion. It's too late in the season to do any outside masonry work due to freezing risk and I now have a window sill that can't be sealed (aluminum trim) and will probably leak snow and water throughout the winter. Successful business owners stand behind their work, respond to their clients and take reasonable measures to assure their customers are satisfied. Greg clearly does not subscribe to these business principles as he exhibited none of these characteristics with me. I surmise that Pro-Active Masonry will not succeed - just another 'take the money and run' company. Does anyone know of a reputable mason I can get to come out and fix Greg's shoddy workmanship ??

We had a damper that was damaged and costing us a lot in inefficient heating/cooling and even worked hard to get that closed for us in the meantime while we wait to get our full chimney repaired/ new damper installed.

So that really helped lower my guard knowing he has physically done a lot of this labor before and could tell me what to expect. I appreciate him a lot!

Josh was friendly, professional and knowledgeable and answered all our questions and provided a reasonable quote. Not only did we need a new driveway but we also decided on replacing the sidewalk and adding a back yard patio. Juan, the owner and his entire crew were so friendly and professional and really take pride in their work. October 28,2024 was tear out day and November 1, 2024 was pouring the concrete day. Everything went as scheduled and looks really great and definitely added value and curb appeal to our home. We can't wait to get back out there and fill in the surrounding areas with dirt and grass seed and finally get to use our stored patio furnishings. If you need concrete work PLEASE give them a call and I'm sure you will not be disappointed. UPDATED 11/17/2024 two weeks after my initial review. I emailed Juan the owner of 4WAY cement twice now since pouring our driveway on 11/1/2024 regarding the concrete sealer. He said he was going to seal the new driveway on Tuesday 11/5/2024 and both my emails have gone unanswered and the driveway still not sealed as of 11/17/2024. I may be dropping a star or two if our driveway isn't sealed by month's end. Stay tuned!

Accountability matters to Mike, his crew is pictured on the website. Many local construction companies have high employee turnover and will hire subcontractors without proper vetting, training, and oversight. He does not use high-pressure sales tactics and will not try to sell you something you do not need. His business approach is truly customer-oriented and makes for a pleasant experience.
