I selected Ben The Mason to repair / rebuild the fire brick inside a fireplace and chose him…read morebecause of his experience. Inside the fireplace, grout had all but disappeared on the back / angled wall and several fire bricks were loose. Timeline of events: Sent an email to Ben with pictures and a description of the problem on a Friday at 3:12 PM. He called me at 5:15 PM that evening asking if he could visit to see the job and offer me an estimate, he came by at 5:44 PM, and after reviewing and carefully describing the work needed to repair, he offered his proposal which I accepted. AND the VERY NEXT DAY, a SATURDAY mind you, he and his son arrived at 8:00 AM and the job was completed by 3:00 PM. So literally WITHIN 24 HOURS Ben The Mason had responded to my request, came by to see the job, offered a quote, and did the repairs. The entire experience exceeded my expectations, and I am very impressed with the service and craftsmanship provided by Ben The Mason. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Ben did a third project for us this week. First, when I call Ben, he picks up the phone and is…read moreusually onsite within a day or two. His response times are amazing. Next up, we have to discuss price. I've done only a handful of projects, so this is hard for me to judge. But, when I see the work and look at the amount of hours he puts in and the quality of the work, it seems extremely fair and I'm guess extremely competitive. If you think a price is too high, discuss it with him. He and you can work something out...or not. I've worked with him three times and will do so again. That leaves quality as next factor. No one is better. He built a patio from huge pavers that have not moved, shifted, cracked, or drained poorly. We get numerous positive comments. Ben is a polite, clean, professional man that gets to it. I do not believe you will find anyone around who is as fast, affordable, and adept. His sons are great too.

All worked well for 2 years,then trouble started.I had water in my basement coming from the well, called someone came the next morning,he pulled the pump out and said it was the pump I will be back or someone will call you. I've called 2 to 3 times a day and left messages to return my call, I'ts been 8 days now and no one has called me from this company. There is a 3 year warranty on this pump, and a lifetime warranty on the job itself. As I said satisfaction with the job in beginning but not now, there is no reason that they don't call me back. If I was you don't hire them for any projects plenty of others out there. Given a ooooo review
