FITZPATRICK MASONRY

Mr. Ftizpatrick and his team provided a lower cost, attractive alternative to rebuilding our large chimney which was deteriorating and allowing water to leak into the fireplace in our house.  The bricks on our chimney were deteriorating and the chimney was leaking, especially badly during heavy rain.  At times, up to a gallon of water was collected in buckets inside our fireplace.  All other estimates focused on rebuilding the chimney at a cost of  $12,000-$18,000.  Mr. Fitzpatrick suggested covering the chimney with stucco, fixing the top and waterproofing it.  We chose a color which matched the existing brick.  Honestly, I was a bit skeptical about how it would look but financially it was the obvious option.  
The job was well done and looks GREAT!!  I was very happy with the result.  Even better, not a drop of water in our fireplace since the job was completed.  They also replaced a brick window sill and offered another less expensive option to rebuilding a wing wall where the bricks were deteriorating.  Mr. Fitzpatrick and his son were professional, skilled, very pleasant, did a great job and cleaned up.  I would definitely use them again for our masonry issues.

THE WORK DONE WAS EXCELLENT, BUT THE SALESMAN'S SUGGESTIONS ENDED UP COSTING ME MORE MONEY THAN HE SAID IT WOULD SAVE ME. HE SOLD ME A DISCONTINUED BRICK TO MATCH MY EXISTING HOME AND TOLD ME THAT DUE TO THE FACT IT WAS DISCONTINUED IT WOULD SAVE ME MONEY. HE DID MENTION THAT HE MAY NOT HAVE ENOUGH BRICK TO FINISH THE GABLE PORTION WITH THE AMOUNT OF BRICK THAT HE HAD. THIS BECAME THE CASE AND THE ADDED COST OF HAVING TO FRAME OUT THE GABLE AND PUT SIDING ON IT COST ME $1000 MORE THAN I HAD SAVED. LEFT A BAD TASTE IN MY MOUTH.

THEY PROVIDED GOOD SERVICE. THEY CAME IN AND DID THE JOB WHEN THEY SAID THEY WERE GOING TO, AND DID A GOOD JOB.
