He then took a little longer to complete the job to ensure that it was done correctly and to my liking. I'm very happy with his meticulous and detail-oriented work; plan to employ him on additional projects - a 200 old brick house will provide many such projects. Best details: along with refurbishing the old wrought iron railings so they look sharp, he applied an aggregate coating that was a good match to the old stair color, plus several layers of epoxy to stabilize the stairs and make them winter-safe.

A five star rating does not even begin to encompass the immense gratitude and appreciation I have…read morefor Tyshawn and Walley Masonry Service. Let me start by saying: When I found out that I would need to replace the old, rotten hardwoods throughout half of my house, the task seemed insurmountable. Not only did I need to rip out those old floors, but there was seventy five year old mastic attached to the concrete prohibiting me from pouring the concrete I wanted onto my floors. I came to Walley Masonry for help, to see if there was anything we could do. Tyshawn, without batting an eye, said he could get it done. From a personal standpoint, Tyshawn is an upstanding individual. He respected me and my wishes for the project, and treated the project as if it was his own home he was working on. Not only that, but as all things are in construction, there were several hurdles in our way when removing the mastic, as it was extremely stubborn. Even with remedy after remedy not working, Tyshawn never gave up on making sure the job was done correctly. From a business perspective, Tyshawn is hardworking, committed, and dedicated to the project he is working on. He put in long hours, working well into the night, to get the project done. Whether it be from staying late stripping the mastic off the concrete, pouring the concrete, or making sure to take the extra time to pay fine attention to the details that otherwise may have been missed, Tyshawn made sure that the job was not only done, but that it was done right. You will see in the photos the complete night and day difference between what I started with, and what Tyshawn helped me create. I appreciate him, and would fully support and endorse hiring him for whatever masonry needs you may have!

From the owner: My goal is not just that you're happy with the work I do for your house, but that you'll be happy…read moreto have me there. My skill set is broad, and my attention to detail is bordering on obsessive. Installing, repairing, building, if I can't do something for you, I'll be straight forward about it, but I probably can. Some more specific examples are: chimney repointing and poured concrete crown repair and replacement, roof repair, brick patio repair, non-structural masonry walls, general plumbing, general electrical, sheetrocking, painting, fixture repair or install, general woodwork, etc. I'm particularly useful for finding solutions to weird problems. Can't figure out how to fix (insert whatever)? Be happy to have a look. I clean up thoroughly, including between consecutive days. It's something I feel like I shouldn't have to say, but it is worth mentioning. And, I price fairly. Look forward to hearing how I can help.

To…read moregive a little background: I had called a different business first, and they told me that they would get to me eventually. I waited 3 weeks and nothing was done. I finally started looking for a new business and saw lots of signs around my neighborhood for Black Magic. I am so happy I called them. I was called right back, was given an estimate and my driveway was sealed 2 days later. My driveway was edged, weeds were removed, dirt and debris was blown away, and then seal coated BY HAND (not sprayed). He was very friendly and professional and did a fantastic job. The price was great. I will definitely use them again.
