Tim Adamson Masonry

Was pleased with all aspects of the work.

Tim was prompt, professional and reasonably priced. Our job was completed within two weeks of requesting a quote.

Tim gave me a bid in June 2015, but he was too busy to do the work for me that year. We agreed he would do the work in the spring or summer of 2016, depending on the weather. The work consisted of repairing the footing and brick on one corner of the garage, rebuilding the chimney from the roof line up, and miscellaneous repairs around the ground level perimeter of the house. Everything was done very well except one spot at the ground level which was a little crooked, but I'm probably the only person who would notice it, so it was not worth making a fuss.

After 3-4 estimates, we selected Tim for the job, in part because of the competitiveness of his estimate, and in part because of his attention to detail (ensuring that the new mortar matched the old mortar, which required mixing some sand with a lighter color mortar, and offering to rebuild the flower box with bricks that matched the rest of the house, since the previous box was a much lighter shade than the rest of the house). Even with these "extras," Tim's bid was on par with the lowest estimate we received, and we felt much more confident in his work. He stopped by prior to starting the project to go over the logistics of where to park his truck and confirm the specifications for the work. In the end, both chimneys are beautiful, and we couldn't be happier with the tuck pointing he performed. It looks great!

He was the low bidder and did a great job.  He was very respectful of the property.  He was very clean.  He was quiet.  He didn't disturb the neighbors.  He asked questions if he needed to.  He was expedient.

Great!  Tim worked quickly, and our steps were finished within 2 wks.  They are absolutely beautiful, and I'm so happy that they're done, at a great price.  I had another bid to do the same job for $21,000 -- so I couldn't believe it when Tim's bid came in under $5000.  He's done work on our neighbor's homes, too, and does great work.  Would definitely use him again, and recommend him to anyone.

He has done work all throughout our area. His prices are phenomenal. I had other quotes come in at around $5,000, and couldn't believe how affordable he is. His work is impeccable. He is an A+ rated provider in my book.

Tim came when he said he would and finished the work in 1 week.  Cleaned the site when done.

Mr. Adamson did an excellent job; the tuck pointing and rebuilding was very well done, the job was finished ahead of schedule, and the work site was cleaned up very neatly after each work day and when the whole job was finished.

After finding Tim's number on Angie's list, I left a message requesting a quote.  He called back within two hours.  Tim is prompt, professional and a good communicator.  He has worked as a mason for many years and quickly gained my confidence that he would do a good job.  His bid was fair and he was able to get us into his schedule within two weeks.  The week the work was performed, it rained on and off. Despite the bad weather, Tim and his helper did an excellent job and even came out on a Saturday (with pouring down rain) to finish the tuckpointing.  After every work session, our back patio was swept very clean. Before Tim left, we asked him to do an estimate on our (above the roof).  We plan on having him do this work in the next 1-2 years. We would recommend Tim to others.

Got a recommendation from a friend that owns property and had used Tim for a chimney. Tim came out, gave a bid and when we were ready to start he scheduled us in. Tim also told us straight away that the bricks were no longer manufactured in the same color as the old ones, but gave us samples of the bricks he was going to use and that matched the closest beforehand so we can get an idea. The bricks we had were in colors not made anymore so he had to find something similar and he did a great job. Our brickwork had 4 or 5 different colors from yellow, orange, red, green and black. So mixing these so it would look authentic could have been a challenge. The new bricks were also of slightly different dimensions so he had to change the design a little bit to achieve the same shape of the chimney, but he managed to do that so it still looks like the chimney has always been there.  He also had to use a special scaffolding due to the location of the chimney and the work took longer for him than he initially had thought. We are very very pleased with the craftsmanship and impressed with the result. We will use Tim again in the future if we have more masonry to do.

Tim was by far the least expensive of five Angies List vendors who gave us bids. He was prompt. He met with the door installer to make sure his work would work with their needs. He recommended an improvement in what I had asked him to do. And, when I asked him to come back to do a little extra work on an unrelated issue, he did so promptly. Finally, he was the only bidder who discussed trying to match the aged look of the old grout. He tinted it and then "washed" it with an acid so it looks exactly like the rest of the wall. I have had two other masons do work on my house, and without question, Tim's work was as good or better and much more reasonable cost-wise. Tim was fantastic. I will be using him again any time I need masonry.

Outstanding. The mason work was outstanding and professionally done. Tim was hard to get a hold of, but the low cost and high quality of the work more than made up for the communication.

We bid with three different contractors - Tim had the best price. Per our request, he cleaned and used as many of the house's original bricks as possible. He also supplied additional bricks that matched the color of our 78 year old house quite well. The construction blends with the rest of the house and the other window box very nicely. Tim kept us up-to-date on his schedule and the project's progress, arrived when he said he would and completed the job on time. His final charge matched the bid exactly. Tim will also be back to tuck-point our house this summer.

Tim is a salt of the earth person - very straight, very professional. We think he's great. He doesn't always return phone calls promptly but he's streets above the alternatives -- a true diamond in the rough. Hire him!

He is a specialist when it comes to working on a chimney. He will totally re-do a chimney. His chimney work is amazing. I recommend him to anyone needing brick work done.

HE CHARGED A FRACTION OF OTHER BIDS AND THE WORK IS BETTER THAN ANY CHIMNEY WE HAVE SEEN IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. IT HAS MADE OUR HOUSE SO MUCH MORE BEAUTIFUL! ALSO, HE WAS INCREADIBLY PROFESSIONAL WHEN HE WAS THERE- HE HOSED OFF THE LAWN EVERY NIGHT AND WAS VERY UNOBTRUSIVE.

UNDERCUT COMPETITORS PRICES BY 1/5! HE DID EXCELLENT WORK AND WAS A VERY HONEST AND DEPENDABLE GUY. WELL DONE WORK AND VERY EASY TO DEAL WITH.

PAID HIM $600 LESS THAN THE LOWEST BID, AND HE DID A BEAUTIFUL JOB. HE DID SUCH A GOOD JOB THAT HE IS GOING TO DO HIS OWN. I HAVE NO COMPLAINTS.
