"They quoted a price and we had them do a sight visit so they knew what we had and half way through the project he added cost and would not provide pictures to justify! Also we have a hump in our concrete, left the edges unfinished, one pad is not straight and concrete splashed up the side of our brick/windows/doors. He was nice but poor quality and jacked up the price after the fact!"

"The work done isn't the main problem. I had new cement in the driveway for $7,000 which had no damage to it until Mike's crew came in and damaged the driveway and curb while delivering materials. I am a senior citizen female so I guess he feels he can get away with mistreating a senior. When Mike saw the damage, he blamed it on work the cement company had done. The cement company owner came and looked at it and provided an estimate on repairing it, explaining to him that the people who make the damages are the ones who make the repairs. Mike indicated to me that he would take care of the damage which wasn't the cement company's fault. However, he wouldn't answer the phone when the cement company owner called him so arrange to make the repairs. He never answers my phone calls, and he has changed his email address. He won't take care of the damages because I am a woman alone so he feels he can get away with it. He is not to be trusted whatsoever, unfortunately. I consider him to be a liar and rip off."

Masonry uses units like bricks, cement blocks, and stone with mortar between them. Mortar is generally made of sand and a type of cement. Examples of masonry include the brick or stone on a house, chimney, or freestanding wall. Concrete is a mixture of water, sand, stone aggregate, and other materials, and is poured into forms or moldings. Types of concrete applications include driveways, garage and basement floors, and poured concrete walls in basements and crawl spaces.
The cost of masonry work varies widely depending on the type of masonry along with common cost factors like size, complexity, location, and season. Most exterior masonry work done in freezing temperatures tends to cost more because of the preparation and protection involved to keep the masonry from freezing before the mortar cures properly. The average price ranges per project or square foot for different types of masonry include:
Brick wall (fence, garden wall, etc.): $10–$45 per square foot
Natural stone wall: $40–$110 per square foot
Manufactured stone veneer: $20–$40 per square foot
Brick home exterior: $10–$30 per square foot
Brick siding: $3–$10 per square foot
Stone siding: $35–$50 per square foot
Brick step replacement: $20–$30 per square foot
Brick wall repair: $20–$40 per square foot
Chimney repairs: $160–$750 per project
Tuckpointing: $5–$25 per square foot
A mason lays brick or stone together, sometimes with mortar in between the bricks and stones, and sometimes without mortar, also called a dry-stack or surface bonding. Examples of work masons do include:
Brick, stone, or cement block houses and buildings
Freestanding stone or brick walls
Chimneys with wood-burning fireplaces
Cement block basement or crawl space walls
Masonry work tends to be more expensive because the materials can be costly, such as natural stone and brick. Masonry is also very labor intensive, typically making up 50% or more of the final project cost. In addition, quality masonry work requires years of training and experience, as with any skilled trade.
Two types of masonry are veneer masonry and solid masonry. Veneer masonry is thin brick or stone material attached to the face of a building. With veneer masonry, the walls support the weight of the masonry products rather than the masonry being built on a concrete footing. Solid masonry is a wall or other brick or stone structure built on a concrete footing, and the masonry supports itself.
