"Very good. Technician provided info about fireplace and explained how to properly and safely use."

"As a former home improvement contractor with "15" years of experience, I always told my customers the best way to choose a contractor was by "word of mouth".  Fast forward to the current time-frame, and I have become a fan of Angie's List, since essentially it is a storehouse of customers who have had experiences with the various contractors available.  Since I have the skills necessary to pretty much solve all my own construction problems, I am reluctant to "pay" someone else to handle them.  However, I also realize that sometimes time and circumstance interfere with timely completion of various projects.  Mike Sheehan, the owner of MFS Masonry, answered my query in short order, and visited my home within a mutually convenient time period.  Affable, witty, friendly, and very knowledgeable, Mike surveyed the area, took some quick but accurate measurements, and he wrote me a quote before he left.  I telephoned him at least two more times over the next several days with some other questions, and he answered directly and honestly.  After some brief delays due to the weather, Mike's crew arrived on Thursday, May 8, and raised the old pavers, excavated the underlayment, removed the railroad ties, and demolished the front steps, after verbally insuring  that we had other access to the house. The "4" guys worked a total of "12" hours each, efficiently moving materials without disturbing/damaging the surrounding environs.  During this time Mike was not present onsite for the whole time period, but rather, trusting his able-bodied workers, informed my wife that he would be visiting with other potential customers and provided her with his cell-phone number in case there were any issues.  He returned frequently during the day, both inspecting the site, and conferring with my wife to see once again if there were any concerns.  Friday, May 9 was a carbon-copy of Thursday, but this time the installation of the new pavers was completed, and with adequate pitch to insure proper drainage into an edge-drain installed between the pool deck and the actual patio.  "One" man constructed the entire front steps on his own, insuring that it was both level and square....believe me, I checked!  Rainfall interrupted the last step of the process which was to sweep polymeric sand to lock the patio pavers in place, but Mike's guys returned on Monday, May 12 to complete the job!  Their workmanship is superior, their attitude was professional, friendly and helpful, and the job was completed in a record "2" days, if you discount the weather delay.  The true test of course, is how will wifey like it...because as the saying goes..."Happy Wife, Happy Life!"  Wifey loves it!  Done....

"The price was reasonably priced. The installation went great. The crew was very neat and professional. Great company to work with. I would use them again."

"Frank Bergin and his team of experts installed a paver patio retainer wall, and two sets of steps. The color scheme he suggested was a perfect match for my existing deck and color of my house. The project was estimated to take one week his team finished a one day ahead of schedule. I am more than happy with the finished product."

"Joe does fantastic work. The you can't even tell the section of the patio he repaired is not part of the original work. Good communication and fair pricing. I will definitely hire again."

"Took 3 visits but was well worth the time, attention and patience to get the job done right. First day was inspection and quote for repairs/materials. Work started that day to patch the cement crown that was cracked and channeling water down one side of the chimney eroding bricks. A bowed metal plate on the chimney to shed water between the two flue caps was flattened and sealed with cement so it did not show from the ground and so flies would stop entering into the house thru one of the flues. Crumbling mortar was replaced between bricks and bricks were waterproofed. The chimney was measured and the cap to cover the entire chimney was ordered. The 2nd visit got rained out. The 3rd visit was a good weather day and the cap was assembled, installed and cemented in place. It is amazing how strong the animal guard around the 4 sides of the chimney is. The crew at all times was friendly, courteous & very competent being careful to do the entire project as if it was their home."

"I live in Long Island and I hired ADV CHIMNEY to install my chimney pipe, and they also did the chimney cleaning. A few days ago, strong winds in New York blew off my chimney cap, and a tall employee named Brandon came and fixed it. He was a professional and very friendly. I am very satisfied with the chimney pipe installation and the after-sales service. If you have any questions about chimneys, I recommend contacting ADV CHIMNEY."

"Always great! Brian and his team installed our landscaping 18 years ago and have been upgrading and maintaining it ever since. We highly recommend them."
