It took several months before they got to me, because they are quite busy, but I was not in a big hurry. They did an excellent job; it looks great! They re-used my brick and did a good job of matching the mortar. They removed the whole area around the cracks, cleaned it up, and then re-assembled it. They also redid some brickwork under a downspout and that looks nice as well. They put new molding and lintel around the garage.

Great work

Mr. Cantrell undertook a difficult project for me....the total repair and rehab of serious vandalized home with many problems. He did a great job in all aspects of this project. The result was that we were able to sell this home in days at its listing price.

Jerred contacted me and scheduled the work after I made the initial call to him. Arrived promptly and completed the work in a timely manner. The quality of the work is excellent as well as the costs associated with the repairs being very reasonable. We will definitely call on Cantrell Construction again for other repair and building needs.

Cantrell Contracting LLC The company preformed a variety of task in accomplishing our renovation/repair. There were leaks in the lower level of our home. Correcting this problem required both interior and exterior work, including removing trim from interior windows, removing three sets of triple casement windows. These are very heavy double pane, wood windows with aluminum clad outside. Four men were required to accomplish this task safely. The windows were not installed properly originally and required carpentry work to re-frame and square windows. The windows now operate properly! We had not been able to open some of these windows for years. Drywall replacement and refinishing was also required as well as trim replacement. Problems with the leaks around the windows required exterior work as well. The outer wall was removed down to the studs to check for damage. Inferior work was also found here. Sheathing was removed and replaced. Wall was sealed with ty-vek. Windows on upper level and double doors on lower level were sealed. New lintels were placed above the lower doors for more support. Finally the outer wall was replaced. Work was done in a timely manner. Workmen were polite and answered all of my questions. They did a good job of protecting our deck and cleaning up work site when finished.

Everything went very smoothly. The project included a lot of interior work (reframing, drywall, etc), as well as exterior work (new roofing, siding, etc). The small addition that they added to our roofline blends in flawlessly. We are very pleased!!
Description of Work
Jerred does it again!! I initially reviewed Cantrell Contracting in January for brick work they had done on another home we had. This time, we had them out to do a bigger project that included cutting open our roof and raising the roofline to allow more headroom for a staircase that was added after an addition was previously added to our home. I would not have trusted anyone else to do the work, but his meticulousness calmed my fears.

Mr. Cantrell does excellent work. However, he is very unreliable. It took numerous phone calls and several weeks to get him to come out perform the work. When he finally did show up, he did a good job and completed the job in a timely manner. I asked him to provide estimates for additional home repairs that I estimate were going to total in the $10k range. Even after multiple phone calls he never showed up to provide the estimate. After 4 months, I guess it's time to give up on him.

Excellent. They did an awesome job. They matched new brick with old brick. You can't tell that any work was ever done. Jared was very professional, showed up on time, and finished within a reasonable time.

This project went really smoothly. Jared and Josh arrived promptly, worked quickly, and did quality work. You can't even tell that the exterior door has been bricked over. He took extra time to make everything match up with the existing brick, even meticulously cutting out some old brick to make the pieces meld better.
Description of Work
Jared and Josh did two projects for us. The first was bricking in an exterior door, insulating the wall where the previous door was, and sheetrocking over that. The second was tearing down a wall between two closets to make one large closet, sheetrocking and framing over the door on the other closet to close it off, and adding a light fixture to the new closet.

I had some foundation work done on my house. The foundation problems had caused several problems with the brick veneer including cracks and uneven brickwork (a section under one window had bulged out a little). Masonscapes was recommended by the company that did the foundation work. Jerred came out and gave me a estimate and described how he would repair the several spots that needed it. He finished the work on time and was very professional. I was very pleased with his work as my brickwork looked "good as new" It has now been 3 years and it still looks good.

In selling our house the home inspector found some minor problems. Mr Cantrell came out, gave me a quick quote and scheduled for this week Monday or Tuesday. It rained over the weekend so he could not make it Monday so he showed on Tuesday. He and his team showed up, went right to work, completed their work very efficiently and was spot on with his quote. No unpleasant surprises and professional.

The contact person’s name is Jarad Cantrell. The job they did went very well. I was extremely pleased with the quality of their work. The estimate process with them was a good experience and also with their advice. I found their reputation to be good on Angie’s list because the others had used them and had given me positive feedback about the good quality of work by this company. Their price was probably about average but for the work that they did, it was good. Others might not consider it as good but from what I got out of them, I thought I got my money’s worth. I will use their services again in the future and I’m actually thinking about that.

I used Masonscapes LLC. I last used their services about two or three weeks ago. They did some brick work for me. They filled in an old window and they also dug out the crawl space entry and replaced it with brick work.

Owner Jared Cantrell was the foreman on the job and was very prompt, communicative, and skilled. His crew worked liked beavers, and did an excellent job on this extensive repair. The new brick work was indistinguishable from the original from some 40 years ago. Did good clean up. When we replaced a window a few weeks later, he came back and did a very complicated fitting job because the window opening was out of plumb. Again excellent work.

Repaired major cracks in the brick walls of my house. Repaired brick front steps. Had to cut many bricks, use scaffolding. Good value.

Other local Pros in your area
I have been in the home building business in the Huntsville AL area for the past 15 years. I have always noticed the need to control humidity and mold issues in home design. Designing crawlspaces with foundation vents used to be code and all builders had to abide by the code. Fortunately the codes have changed. I see the need for unvented, conditioned crawlspaces in the Huntsville area. Not only does a conditioned crawlspace allow for the control of mold growth but also allows for the most energy efficient crawlspace possible. I have joined the Crawlspace Doctor team to gain their knowledge and for the support of an expanding Corporation.
