"Leo and team replaced our driveway, installed a patio, and built a retaining wall with an enclosed fence. They were on time, worked incredibly hard, and did a great job. He was flexible, understood our needs and overall a very nice guy. Highly recommend."
"Dimitri and his team were outstanding and demonstrated excellent service and professionalism. Before our meeting Dimitri sent me an estimate for the project that was very easy to understand and was available through text or phone call to answer any questions I had. He showed up ready to go on the day that he was scheduled to be there. Dimitri explained in detail what how his proposal was going to be executed. His team were always prompt, courteous and professional to my tenants and family members. Throughout the project he kept in touch via text which was my preferred mode of communication. While working on my house he informed me if any dirties potential problems that may interfere with the substantial investment I was putting into this home improvement project. I was grateful for that information and was able to make the repairs needed. Upon completion of the project I was informed of any additional information I wanted to know for future reference. I would highly recommend Dimitri Painting & Masonry without reservation. Outstanding!"

"I recently had front steps and a landing installed at my door entrance, and I'm thrilled with the results. The combination of veneer and granite not only adds an elegant touch but also ensures durability. The installation was seamless, enhancing both the aesthetic and functionality of my home entrance. Highly satisfied with the craftsmanship and overall quality."
"Quick response time. Accurate estimate. Started work when they said they were going to - finished when they said they were going to. The patio is absolutely beautiful, and the workers were professional and friendly; working harder than ever, even on those horrible hot days. I would recommend this company to anyone who is looking for a job done well."
"A pleasure working with Miguel from start to finish. He came over to measure and give an estimate for the retaining wall in front of my home. Got the estimate later that day, along with pictures of similar projects his company had done. I chose his company and two days later he and his crew showed up on time, removed the old timber wall and installed a concrete block wall. I can't believe how beautiful my yard looks now. Torres Masonry is definitely my go-to for any future projects!"
"Prime installed a drainage system for our backyard to solve a long time erosion issue. Prime did a great job. Everything was on time and professionally done!"
