First and most importantly, they did exactly what they said they would do from calling back, coming out to provide a quote, to completing the chimney rebuild. I would highly recommend TCB Masonry. If all contractors had the same professionalism and integrity contractors would not have a bad name. Otto leads by example and treated our home as if it were his own.

Every time they went to the truck, which was several times throughout the process, they removed their boots. They protected the work area with tarps. We were so impressed! They explained what they were doing as they completed the job. We can't say enough about how professional, yet very personable they were. They completed the job, gave us a great tutorial about how to operate the new unit, and cleaned up behind them. They even installed the new fireplace doors!!! We highly recommend this company, and if they let you request, make sure you ask for Keith and Edgar!!! We love our new gas fireplace, and can't thank them enough!! Two very happy customers!!!

We had a fireplace that was unused since buying the house. We've never had a "gas starter"…read morefireplace before and didn't want to burn the place down. I looked around at vendors and liked what I saw about High Rise Chimney so made an appointment with Maggie, who was wonderful. First impression was a good one as one of the owners came out himself! Matt was excellent. No pushy sales pitches, no trying to downplay anything, and frankly shocked me by saying the fireplace was fine and usable but needed some exterior work in the future (again, no pushing). We talked about making it gas only and he talked me through that as well. Best of all, he showed us now the thing even works and gave advise on using it. Fantastic! Absolutely one of the best visits ever. I will be using them for all future needs. Thanks Maggie and Matt!

Perfect work from Reyes Masonry! The brick wall under my bay window was separating from my house. I…read moreknow this job was a tedious pain in the a**. The wall is curved, has a random/sparse color pattern and a different sill. My impossible to match bricks also had to be salvaged. Roberto was quick to give me a fair estimate and work me into his busy schedule. He and his crew came on time, were super nice, worked through two days of rain and wind, salvaged my bricks! and did a great job. They also did some repointing in a few spots. He even came back to caulk later as soon as the weather was appropriate. All the work looks original. I have no concerns about the durability. I would, without hesitation, recommend Reyes Masonry to anyone and use them again.

Recent rains that found their way into our basement through leaking windows motivated me to deal…read morewith the problem. I considered replacing them with glass block. And, doing the job myself. Although, I am quite handy I knew a professional was needed to tackle a project of this magnitude. So the next step was finding a reputable masonry contractor. Searching for any home improvement company can be quite daunting. I asked around at work with no success. So, Google was the next step. Many show up in the search but all of them have no reviews, Yelp or any others. Literally, I closed my eyes and picked one. This was quite a gamble but I needed this job done. So I called Al Menting Mason Contractor. He came out a few days later to give me a quote. The cost seemed reasonable so I scheduled the job. He was really busy so it would be a couple weeks out before he could do it. The fact that he was busy indicated that he was probably reputable. A week later his skilled masons came out and did the windows. Four, maybe five hours later they were done. The finished product looked professionally done along with a through clean up. This contractor comes highly recommended in all aspects of the process. A side note; post reviews on home repairs so others have some place to start.

Within a few days Al jr. came out and told us that about 10% of the chimney needed to be tuck pointed, the price was fair so we scheduled. Due to a back log of work due to rain Al said they were 3-4 weeks out and would call the day before work was to begin. About 4 weeks later we got the call and the crew of guys arrived the next day. The chimney was repaired and waterproofed in a few hours, pictures were taken and showed to is before they left. I will use them in the future if needed.
