He came to visit in no time to look at our need. He was very courteous and helpful. I did not know what I really wanted and he was helpful in suggesting ideas to help. He sent me a quote that was reasonable and after approval, he started with his crew on the work and finished ahead of time. His communication was great and his crew was really friendly. The finished project exceeded our expectations and fit our needs. Thank you very much Jerry and crew. If you have any paving or masonry work, do not hesitate to reach out to Jerry and you will glad you did.

He clearly had a skilled eye and showed his expertise. He also knew Mass code well. Moreover, he was able to give me quotes on prices in real time -- no waiting or nagging for a quote! -- which was a pleasant rarity. He followed up one week later to see if I had any questions without being pushy. Good middle of the road prices for what would likely be high quality work. I'll be calling on them again in the future for any hardscape and masonry needs.

I interviewed a few masonry companies for repairing spalling brick in my basement. Some wanted to…read moreparge the walls, which was not what I wanted. Some quoted me fairly high prices for the repair, but Martin Forde offered me the best, and most reasonable cost for the job. During our interview Martin struck me as a competent, and fair mason and he is responsive by email, which are valuable traits in a contractor. We scheduled the job, and he and his team showed up right on time. The first thing I learned is that Forde masonry may not have a full time staff. Martin definitely came out to my job periodically to deliver materials, but the masons who did the work were actually two latinos who seemed to be day laborers. They were competent, and very polite as I asked questions in my broken Spanish, but that makes accountability a little more difficult. That became a problem when I was in the basement with another contractor, and I saw one of the mason repairing a hole that was two withes thick. He was just repairing the outward face that I could see, but leaving a whole in the second layer. I asked him about it, so he dropped some mortar into the hole, a few bricks, and kept on with his repair. Yes, it visually looks fine and I would not have noticed if I were not watching as the hole was getting closed up, but that is not what I expect when I hire a professional mason to repair my walls. My job is done though, and I hopefully will not need masonry help for a while. Most of the issues I had are easily fixed with a little more attention to detail, and oversight, so I would encourage others to give Martin a chance if you need masonry help.
