I didn't end up using this big deal because it turned out to be not such a big deal after all. The provider ended up just taking 99 off the quote which is what I paid for the deal which was supposed to be worth 300. So why bother if I am just paying full-price....

Description of Work
Rebuilt my fireplace chimney from the roofline up, adding additional clay flue pipe to extend the flue to the full height of the chimney. It's hard to evaluate a chimney immediately, since the key virtue one seeks is durability, but I can say that it looks plumb, which is more than many of my neighbors can say. | |Initially, I was quoted $800 or so (I can't quite recall) to repoint the chimney, but when the workmen actually got up the roof to do the work, they found the chimney too far gone to repoint. (They literally pulled it apart by hand -- no tools required -- so there's no question that rebuilding was needed.) A full rebuild, however, requires more time (and a different guy) than a repointing job, so although the chimney could come down on the day when it was to have been pointed, I had to wait most of a week to have the job finished. They initial crew did a good up of covering up their work, but in the intervening time I did have a chimney's worth of bricks stacked up on my roof, which was a little disconcerting. (Fortunately, no windstorms or battling wildlife dislodged anything.) I understand that delays happen, particularly where outdoor works is involved, but I would've appreciated being kept more fully abreast of scheduling developments. Until a call the night before, I was uncertain when they'd be back. Once they did get back to me, though, the job went swimmingly.

It took many attempts and multiple weeks to get him to come out to look at the work. When he came out we were impressed by his level of expertise and he appeared to be trustworthy. He also told us he would email us an estimate for a much larger mason job that we will need to do at some point and he told us he would be out the next week to complete the flashing and fix our stone wall. He never came and both my husband and I tried by phone voicemail and by text to get in touch with him to find out whether we can count on him coming out prior to our roofer coming. We never heard back from him. I will need to get my money back from Angies List.

MJF Masonry did contact/visit me to review the job within a reasonable time. They provided a quote which was also reasonable (and they presented themselves well). However, I have a very old house and my chimneys have a unique design and I decided to work with a mason who had more experience with old chimney designs (one of my two chimneys needed to be taken down completely and rebuilt).

AWFUL! Worst experience I've had in terms of how many attempts I made to communicate w/ vendor. At he responded and we setup a day for him to provide services, he never showed up, and no calls, I just sat around waiting for him. When I called and email asking what happened, it took a few attempts but after several days he replied saying he would come out the next day (which had never been discussed and I wouldn't have been available to be there. He provided no explanation or apology for not showing up at the previous appointment. I gave him several alternative days, he has never replied since 4/20 despite several attempts to call and message him through Angies list. I have wasted so much time w/ this vendor...worst experience. I will think twice about doing another big deal. I love the rating of Angies List and the other vendors have been great, but this was a disaster.

Description of Work
Skim coat a set of cement stairs that was badly deteriorated. It went well once he arrived but he seemed to regret posting a 99.00 deal because he was actually losing money on most of the jobs. He worked for about 2 hours and informed me it was a temporary fix and would only last about a year or two. He was very polite and gave me estimates on some larger jobs I planned on tackling in the future. He did not charge me for materials but he only used one bag of cement for the job, and I feel it was a trade off because he only worked about 2-3 hrs tops.

He came equipped with the right tools, did a beautiful job removing old cement that was washing away with rain. He replaced a solid base of new cement, replaced the step, regretted slate tiles on top level and side level of porch. He did a thorough job.

Mark from MJF Masonry is great. This is the second time using his services. First was at my house in Sutton and more recently he installed a retaining wall at my rental property in Dudley. He was very prompt with the estimate. He showed up on time. Most importantly, he was professional, neat, and the job came out perfect. I highly recommend and only use MJF for my stonework needs.

Mark was very professional. He came out to quote the job the same day I called. His price was very reasonable for the scope of work that was needed to be done. The finished product was just what I wanted. I would highly reccommend Mark and MJF for all your masonry needs. A+ .
