We had quite a large project that we did with Evanston Masonry. Our century-old brick needed…read moreconsiderable work, with all the mortar being ground out and redone, as well as new lintels, several rows of replaced brick (where previous homeowners had done the wrong thing, resulting in whole rows sagging and collapsing the top of the window), and even a chimney rebuild. From quote to start was more than a year (due to other constraints), and once started the project took several weeks with a lot of scheduling nuances and coordination with other things. Eric and his team did a fantastic job throughout. The crew was friendly and respectful and their work was and is impeccable. Eric was over-the-top communicative both before, during, and after the project. All little issues were resolved immediately, often going above and beyond. We were particularly impressed with how well Eric and his team worked with the older brick, which requires special care and mortar. Even *matching* old brick is quite hard because the size is different from modern brick and there aren't many companies which make it, meaning color options are quite limited. Eric did a fantastic job and I think most people would struggle to pick out the new from the old. Highly recommend for any masonry work.

Star Tuckpointing is incredible! Voytek and Peter are extremely knowledgeable, whether it's a 100+ old home or newer construction. Their work from initial communication through final completion is flawless. A few examples from the past: They cleaned limestone sills beautifully, replaced old exterior bricks and tuck pointed our110 yr old home. These projects were completed quite a while ago and still after many years, it looks like it was done last week. Recently, they fixed loosened bluestone treads on rear stairs. It's perfect! Voytek and Peter take pride in everything they do. Their craftsmanship is impeccable. They are professional, honest and an absolute pleasure to work with. Highly recommend Star Tuckpointing!!

They demolished the steps, poured new ones along with a new walkway, and got a perfect shape. They also replaced my house's unusually deep limestone door sill. * They redid my railings, extending them to match the slightly higher layout and also repainting them so i didn't have to get all-new ones. Very friendly, professional, and a good value overall.
