Get matched with top masons in Niles, IL

"I found JC & Son on Angie's List. After seeing that they had all A ratings, I emailed them describing the work I needed done and asking for an estimate. Greg contacted me shortly thereafter and set up a time withing 24 hours to look at the job so he could give me an estimate. He spent about 30 min. with me talking about the work and taking measurements. The estimate was emailed to me the next day after he was certain he could get the essential materials. (He was repairing an old window and wanted to be sure he could match the size and pattern of the blocks). We decided to go ahead with the work, based on the timeliness of Greg's response, the ratings on Angie's list, and his professionalism. Greg told us he would need to wait for the weather to warm up before he could do the work, which was fine with us. True to his word, he contacted me when the weather forecast was favorable and the work was scheduled and completed within a few days of that contact. The crew arrived within minutes of when I was told they'd be there. Greg's brother was one of the men working on the job. He was very friendly and very professional, and listened carefully to what I wanted done. He had the essential materials with him so they were able to proceed without delay. They completed the job within a few hours and even hooked up the dryer vent! The work was very well done and the cleaned up after themselves. I would contact them again for small masonry work. Overall, it was a very satisfying experience.

"Jonathan completely rebuilt our chimney to perfection and we are looking forward to having him do another project for us. Jon was great to work with, great communication, always kept us informed, very friendly and reasonably priced. We highly recommend him!"

"I and my condo building had a great experience with E&B Masonry. We had various leaks through our masonry exterior walls, and E&B were very knowledgeable in diagnosing the problem and how to address it. Their price was very fair for the amount and the quality of their work. They were attentive and thorough during the whole process, even addressing details that I hadn't even thought to ask about."

"Another outstanding job by Olsen. We requested and received a proposal last fall for work to be done. Proposal was easy to understand, covered all work wanted and provided on very timely basis. Early spring they delivered brick samples for our approval and began work a few days later. Work was preformed very quickly, very professionally and of the best quality. They thoroughly cleaned up each day and after completion. We strongly recommend Olsen to everyone needing masonry work. Another satisfied customer, again."

"Scott Chaffee and his team did great work on my brick fence. He was prompt and communicative throughout the process. While I did not solicit a ton of bids for this particular job, Scott's quote was dramatically lower than the other bid I got (less than half). The work was just completed this week and it looks great. I will happily hire Scott again the next time I need masonry work done."

"Can't say enough good things about our experience with AAA-1 Masonry & Tuckpointing. We had two holding walls with brick that was deteriorating. They power washed to identify which bricks needed to be removed and swapped out those bricks with new ones. In addition they replaced the capstones on the two walls with larger capstones to provide the walls more protection from the elements. Everything was sealed and completed flawlessly. The crew was experienced and professional. Since the work was done this summer, our walls don't even get wet from rain! We are so grateful for the expert repair but also the guidance that replacing the capstones would provide more of a long term solution. Highly recommend these guys for your masonry needs."

"I chose touchstone they have very thorough description of what was involve in the job and most interesting was making the grout waterproof. In the description, they basically said that they were going to do the whole thing of the wall and I was not prepared for that and basically that is what they did. The important all four sides and everything worked on and they did over and above what I had expected them to do."

"I just hired Edmar to replace a glass block window in our brick house with a more modern double hung window, and they did a great job! I've also hired them in the past to rebuild our parapet and replace other old windows and the work is always great. They're easy to coordinate schedules with and the quality of work is top notch. I'll definitely be hiring them again for any future masonry projects."

"I had a new cap, the top six courses of brick replaced, and the rest tuck-pointed on my fireplace chimney. The chimney looks new, the worksite looks as though they were never here. Hardworking, respectable guys who would always take time to answer questions. Beautiful work at a very reasonable price. Highly recommended."

"exrtremely professional, polite, friendly, cleaned up afterwards, showed picture of some tiles on roof torn off, hired them to come out next week to fix. brickwork looks fantastic."
