I agreed to have him do the work on the 29th of September--the total estimate was around $10,000 and I gave him $3,300 up front to start. He started the work on October 7th and completed on the 9th. They called in a sub-contractor, a carpenter, but he ended up messing it up and doing about $10,000 worth of damageand hellip;.this was the 10th. On October 13th, they came out to look at the damage. They contacted their insurance company and that took a few weeks. They gave me a claim number but didn't feel like it was their responsibility and it fell on the carpenter. The front of my house is destroyed, my front door doesn't work, and the front hallway is buckled. He did verbalize that he would do whatever is possible to get this resolved but here it is in November and I haven't heard or gotten anything resolved yet. They haven't been very proactive about contacting me after the problems arose; I've had to do almost all of the reaching out. They originally were $2,000 higher in price than other contractors but they had a good reputation and I thought I would be getting higher quality work.

This job was unfortunately a and quot;do-overand quot; from another contractor whose work we were not happy with. From start to finish, Konrad took care of the job, listened to our concerns and made sure we were pleased with the results. The previous job had been dry-laid bluestone; Konrad was able to use a good portion of stone from that job to wet-lay this walk. We are very happy with our beautiful new walkway. There was excellent communication from Konrad throughout the process and I couldn't have asked for a better, more professional experience. The men on the crew who actually preformed the work were courteous and professional as well. I would definitely use John Cortese Mason Contractors again, and highly recommend this company to my friends and neighbors.

Our chimney was leaking in to our attic and in to an upstairs bedroom. I met with John, received an estimate within 24 hours and once we gave him the go ahead, the work was completed within the week. The job was completed and completely cleaned up within one day. We are delighted with the results!

John Cortese Mason Contractors were very good. We had them do two different jobs for us because we liked what they did on the first job so we hired them again. They were reliable, they came when they said they would come. They did high quality work and they made a huge difference in the appearance of or house. They really improved the curb appeal of our house.
