Robert Young is truly a pleasure to work with.  He is professional and easy to collaborate with.  He has a strong team of professionals working for him who are punctual and do an excellent job.  Our kids loved to watch them work and the team let them observe. We are very happy with the result.
Robert is fair and responsive - paying attention to all the details to be sure that the job is done right.  He is extremely honest and makes good on his word.
We would recommend New England Stonemasonry to anyone for large or small projects without hesitation.

Excellent job, outcome was better than I expected. I love the finished product

Working with Robert Young and the team from NES was a real pleasure.  He was recommended by a close friend and we are very happy to have chosen him for the project.  He was punctual, professional and the price for the project was comparable to other quotes we obtained for a blue stone patio.  The work was completed in 1 week and involved removing a fence around the area to enable easy access.  Pea stone and fill removal.  Placement of gravel and sand/finer fill, then the blue stone placement with the fill in  between the stones.
Robert has an excellent eye and made some suggestions regarding the moving of a couple of AC units to extend the space available on the patio which made a big difference in the end.  Also as we required access via our neighbors' driveway he offered to meet with them and offered to repair part of  their driveway and remove some extra fill they had in their backyard for the inconvenience of the project.  Our neighbors were very happy with the results and in the end were minimally inconvenienced.
We cannot stress enough what a pleasure it was to work with this team and we are sure we will be seeking their help for other future home improvement projects.

We are extremely pleased with the results of both of these efforts and have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Robert Young and New England Stone Masonry to anyone who wants to work with a reliable contractor and have a job done properly.  He and his crew  are respectful and meticulous in their work.

I have been very happy with their work.  We will be having them come back for another project.

He was excellent. He was very meticulous and intelligent. We think he is an engineer. They did a wonderful job. The price was fine.

New England Stonemasonry Inc Company did a fantastic job. Our backyard turned out to be excellent. Everything was well taken care of. It was nice. The owner was a perfectionist. He was very attentive to details. He came and supervised practically every aspect of the work. He had very good workers who were also attentive to detail. They worked very well on the plan that was designed by another company. So, both companies worked well together. Basically my yard was a complete disaster and New England Stonemasonry Inc Company did every work that a yard needs. I would use them in the future.

WHAT FOLLOWED WAS TWO DAYS OF PHONE CALLS BADGERING ME FOR AN UP FRONT ADDITIONAL PAYMENT. DURING THESE "DISCUSSIONS" I HAD OFFERED TO PAY FOR SOME OF THE WORK THAT HAD BEEN COMPLETED ALREADY. THESE ITEMS CAME TO $1,900. HE DECLINED THIS OFFER AND INSISTED ON RECEIVING A CHECK THAT DAY FOR $3,000. I DECLINED ON PRINCIPLE. LET'S JUST SAY HIS MEANS OF NEGOTIATION DID NOT LEAVE ME IN AN ACCOMMODATING MOOD. I UNDERSTAND THAT A CONTRACTOR HAS DEADLINES, PAYROLLS, SCHEDULES AND MANY ADDITIONAL PRESSURES. UNFORTUNATELY, ROBERT MADE HIS PROBLEMS MY PROBLEMS. THAT SULLIED THE CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE FOR ME. IT IS IMPORTANT THAT I EMPHASIZE THE WORK WAS COMPLETED, DONE WELL AND I HAVE NO COMPLAINT AS TO THE WORKMANSHIP OF THE FINAL PRODUCT. I WILL GO AS FAR AS TO SAY THIS: IF THE PAYMENT SCHEDULE HAD NEVER BECOME AN ISSUE, I WOULD BE SITTING HERE NOW WRITING A GLOWING REVIEW OF HIS GOOD WORK. UNFORTUNATELY, THAT WAS NOT THE CASE.

THEY DUG DOWN, LAID GRAVEL AND STONEDUST AND INSTALLED PAVER WALKWAY. ROBERT WAS VERY CONSCIENTIOUS OF AN OLD TREE WE HAD AND MADE RECOMMENDATIONS ON HOW TO LAY OUT THE WALK SO AS NOT TO DAMAGE THIS TREE IN ADDITION TO OTHER GREAT DESIGN IDEAS. DESPITE IT BEING THE END OF THE SEASON AND A DEMANDING SCHEDULE ROBERT & HIS TEAM WENT THE EXTRA MILE TO GET OUR PROJECT DONE TO OUR SATISFACTION. HE WASN'T THE LEAST EXPENSIVE BIDDER, BUT WE ARE VERY PLEASED WITH THEIR WORK. JAMES, WHO IS ROBERT'S RIGHT HAND MAN WAS VERY HELPFUL AND KNOWLEDGEABLE.

WE WERE SURPRISED THAT HE ASKED FOR THE BALANCE OF THE COST BEFORE THE WORK WAS COMPLETED (WE REFUSED). WE DID HAVE HIM RETURN TWICE TO ADD ADHESIVE TO STONES THAT WERE LOOSE BEFORE WE PAID THE FINAL AMOUNT.

THEYRE VERY EASY TO WORK WITH, VERY FLEXIBLE, VERY DEDICATED, THE OWNER, ROBERT YOUNG IS VERY HANDS ON AND A PERFECTIONIST. IVE BEEN THRILLED WITH THEIR ATTENTION TO DETAIL. GREAT JOB AS USUAL
