OLDE TYME MASONRY INC

THE PROJECT WAS DONE ON TIME AND IN A PROFESSIONAL MANNER.

Mr. Castronova was punctual and accomplished what I needed repaired.He does have a tendency to become talkative and dominate the conversation but I was able to overlook the issue and work with him. I'am glad I did. I would hire him again.

It took a long time because we had a lot of storms and he could not work in the rain. The chimney was very tall ontop of a 2 1/2 story . First he had to build a tall scaffold, climb up it and work in the extreme heat we had in the early summer. He also drove to Chicago for special brick to match the house. He insisted on strong, good brick and showed me the difference in the bricks. He was very particular about what he used and who he had helped him. I could hear him yelling at his worker when everything was not exactly he way he wanted it. I was in the house, he was outside. I was very impressed by his perfectionism.
His work was very, very good. He gave me a detailed contract and the insurance adjuster was impressed at how spot on the contract was. I was impressed by his workmanship. He was also very neat and cleaned up after himself every day.
He responded to my call the same day I called him telling him about the leaking into my bedroom. He couldn't do the work right away because he was on another job, but he covered up what he could so it would not leak till he could get to it.
As I said, I would easily hire him again if needed. He was easy to have around, he explained everything and was a real and quot;professionaland quot; and only had good workers help him. His name is Paul Castranova.
I contracted with the person who did the carpet cleaning to come and carpet clean the whole house starting next week. I will write a review of his work when it is done. I contracted him because I liked the way he cleaned the bedroom carpet.

They did very good work. They specialize in old houses. They do very good brick work.
