Bob was very good to work with during the entire process and did an excellent job. He was easy to reach. He came out quickly to give us an estimate. We suggested repairing the steps. We got quotes from two other contractors that suggested tearing the steps down & rebuilding. We called Bob back to ask about this and he came back to look at the steps to make sure he didn't miss anything. He still felt that repairing would be the better way to go and, after he explained why the bricks were falling off, we felt comfortable going that route. He told us he could come out in two weeks and sure enough, he did. The job took just one day and he came back a few days later to check on how the mortar was setting. He did a great job of cleaning up. The steps are in better shape than we have ever seen them & they may last another 90 years (yes, the house is that old & the steps are original).
Description of Work: Bob Thompson repaired the front steps of our front porch. They have sandstone caps & brick risers and the brick risers were falling apart. They were in very bad shape. Bob repaired the brick risers, reinforced the base at the bottom of the steps, leveled the concrete sidewalk section at the base of the steps and tuck-pointed some other bricks at the sides of our porch.

If all contractors had Bob's work ethic we wouldn't need Angie's List. The first time I called, Bob personally picked up the phone and we scheduled a time for him to come over the next day to review the job. He always showed up on time and was very personable and professional. The end result looks great. Bob cleaned up at the end of each day, even sweeping and mopping the floor, and was careful to use drop cloths on the floor of the common areas he needed to walk through to access the basement.
Description of Work: Removed deteriorated tile block from a wall in the basement and from the lower section of the garage and replaced it with brick. Tuckpointed areas that needed it. Filled a large void between a concrete step and the floor with brick and filled the voids between the back wall of the garage and garage floor with concrete. Also tuckpointed the lower half of the brick garage pillars.

I was pleased with Bob's work. It took about 7 hours of on-site work. He was respectful of my property. He worked alone for much of the job but did have a helper come later in the day. They worked quietly and diligently to get the job done. Bob was also very careful to clean up once the job was done. I have an old house (late 1800's) that, naturally, has some issues. Bob was optimistic about my wall issue which helped reassure me that things weren't as bad as I thought they were.
Description of Work: Bob reinforced two of the basement walls by filling the block cores with cement and a strengthening agent. He also tuckpointed the seams of the wall inside and out.

Bob promptly returned our calls and came and gave a good estimate. He said that he would start two weeks later but, when recent thunderstorms forced water into the home, I called and he and his crew arrived promptly and made all repairs within a couple of days. Bob called and kept us updated as to progress and recommended future repairs/concerns without soliciting for more work.They left the area cleaner than they found it. Very good customer service skills and impressive work ethic. We are very happy with Thompson Masonry.
Description of Work: Multiple areas of our home needed re-pointing (tuck pointing). Bob (owner) and his crew ground out the mortar joints and pointed with color-matched mortar. They also sealed the flashing above our bay (with color-matched sealant) and tuck pointed and cleaned our front stoop.

Who knew we could be so excited about spending money on something no one is going to notice! Bob came out the same day he was called for an estimate, said what he would do, went way beyond what he said he would do and did an overall great job. He and his worker cleaned up totally when they left, and the projects look wonderful. Everyday I go out and look at those chimneys and think how great they look. The caps he put on them add architectural interest to the house and he totally waterproofed all of his work as well. Would most definitely recommend.
Description of Work: Chimneys rebuilt, tuck pointed one side of brick house, rebuilt stone wall and tuck pointed stone on front of house.

Got a response and estimate within days. However, the work didn't get done for awhile due to scheduling and weather issues. The nice part was that Bob didn't just forget about the job. He followed up even after a long delay and performed the work as promised. They did a great job on a pretty weathered chimney, included a sealer on the chimney and were even able to match the old mortar. They followed up after the work was completed and encouraged us to call if we had any problems. Glad I hired them and would do so again. It's nice to work with a company that is so conscientious.
Description of Work: Needed tuckpointing on a weathered chimney which was causing a leak in an upstairs bedroom.

I was very pleased at what he did. It was done well to my satisfaction, and I was glad that I was able to find them to do the work.
Description of Work: There was a crack in the marble surrounding for my outer fireplace. It had been previously poorly patched, which caused the marble to slide out of place. They came in and repaired it very nicely for me.

Mr. Thompson rebuilt the steps to code including pitching the steps so that water drained away from my foundation. He used new brick and built several footers as well as using the flip-side of my existing stone pads that saved me approximately $900. I felt the price while higher than I anticipated was fair as another contractor was going to charge up to $2200 for just a repair that would not have solved the problem.
Description of Work: My set of brick and stone side steps had deteriorated to the point of cracking and allowing water to drain back into the house causing water damage.

Overall, I was really pleased. Bob didn't return my first phone call for an estimate, but the second time I called, he apologized and remembered that he was supposed to call back and came out that same day to do an estimate. He offered to complete the work on the spot, immediately after the estimate, which I took him up on. I had received one other estimate that was over $600 for the work, and Bob completed it for $50, the work was well done, he was very nice, and I felt like I was treated fairly rather than ripped off.
Description of Work: Fixed my front concrete porch. The side of the porch had split the entire length of the porch, and the piece was falling. Bob reinforced and reattached the piece, so that the porch is safe again.

It was a really god experience. I was very pleased with him. He showed up for the estimate for the sun room, and before we even got out to see it, he noticed problems with my chimney. I don't think he was just trying to get more business. I was impressed with his evaluation, and appreciated knowing that the repair was needed before it got too bad. It was a great job that he did for me. He was very pleasant and showed up on time.
Description of Work: They did some cement repair for me. They repaired my chimney and part of the cement on my patio enclosure.

Robert was prompt and friendly, very eager to do the job well. He made an extra effort to obtain the correct bricks. Both he and his assistant took pains to avoid damage to the roof during the demolition and repair process.
Description of Work: They removed top three layers of brick and old cap on our 3-flue chimney and rebuilt it with new bricks that matched the unusual, original bricks. When he found an unanticipated opening under a decorative, false flue; he replaced a rotten, internal plywood shelf with a metal and concrete shelf. He then capped the chimney with a Portland cement and latex mix that should weather well and prevent future water damage to the chimney. He caulked the gap between the chimney and the house. He also sprayed waterproofing (Thompson's of course) on the chimney and brick facing on the front of the house.

They were prompt, worked rapidly and cleaned up very well. My only problem was that they reported they were done so I went up on the roof to inspect the job. It was not complete and required another half hour or so to finish. The end result looks very good, but I was disappointed that I had to find out the work was not complete.

Bob came out and quoted a reasonable price to tuckpoint front steps. I agreed to the price and he promised to come out one week later after he bought white mortar. After our initial meeting, I called him to confirm that the work would be performed on July 11. He never arrived. He later called and left a curt message saying the job was too small and that he wasn't going to come. I had even recommended him to a friend for her chimney work and now he has left me high and dry- completely unprofessional.
Description of Work: Bob was to have tuckpointed and bleached the moss off of our front steps.

Responded quickly to initial phone call. Set up time for repair and called a day early to see if he could start sooner. The work was done in a very neat and orderly manner. Original work only called for leveling the landing step. When rotted fascia board was discovered, he also replaced that section of board.
Description of Work: Raised sandstone landing to pitch water off landing. Tuck pointed underneath. Replaced rotted 2 X 10.
