"Excellent work from start to finish. My father was a mason, so I know great work when I see it. First, they brought in a tear-down team to remove the chimney down to the first-floor roof level of our two-story house. After which, they rebuilt the chimney to original height installing approximately 900 new bricks using a new Type N mortar. They installed a new 5" thick concrete crown with a 2" drip edge and an expansion joint. They replaced all accessible sections of fireplace clay flue tile extending 4" - 6" above the concrete crown. Installed new stainless steel chimney cap. Installed 2 sets of new step and counter flashing. Installed 2 sets of new ice water shields and shingles as needed. Cleaned and weather sealed chimney entirely upon completion. After the chimney rebuild was done, the Mason, Seth, and his crew cleaned the work site, to include the whole driveway. They are a very efficient and thorough team. I understand that they like to leave the customer's house and yard as clean or better than they find it."

"Clark was very helpful and knowledgeable. Very professional and laid dropcloths from door to fireplace. I had a great experience even though I didnâ t hire to repair the flue. Estimate was pricey but I believe the work would have been excellent."

"Robert was very authentic with his recommendations on timing and cost for the projects. He worked with us to develop a proposal that met our needs and was open to changes along the way. The team that he put together was very professional and respectful of the property. They kept us updated of progress and cleaned up nicely after the work was done. We love our new backyard!"

"That was good! I don't believe that there were any additional costs beyond the big deal amount. It was painless and pretty routine. I used the fireplace after that, I just hadn't used it for a while. I did it more as a precautionary thing. I got scheduled right away when I called."

"This is a 90 year old house and the valve was original equipment. It had to be replaced but only from below by cutting a hole in the basement ceiling. Even then, the valve was built into the joists and the area to work in was about 6x10 inches and all overhead. Ben worked on this replacement for hours and he worked unbelievably hard. It was frustrating work, but I never heard him call out in anger (of course I was not with him at all times:)). He may be the ONLY tradesman capable and willing to take on a job like this in this area. He has an encyclopedic knowledge of all things fireplace. Price is very fair. Without a doubt, he is The Man.
