I was "low balled" and "high balled" by these guys from $750 to $2,500 and they were only going to patch things up. NO SALE!
The lesson to be learned is this: If you have a masonry job - get a mason. There is no substitute.
Due to the diligence and detail oriented mindset of Chris and Ed, I got a terrific job that enhanced my home's value. The work was very difficult because all those mortar joints have to be ground out by hand, and replaced with color matched mortar that looks "normal" and consistent with the house.
The main chimney now looks brand new, which is saying something because it was a unique white brick and it is the first thing you see when you approach the house. The utility chimney in the back of the house(for the oil heat) was also in bad shape. Chris had to use stronger and stronger cleaning agents to get the tenacious soot off of the red bricks, eventually resorting to an acid etch solution.
In addition, they always cleaned up before they left for the day. This is important for a homeowner's safety and peace of mind. It means the employer and employees care about your property. NO cursing, NO loud talking or radio blasting. Professional from start to finish and that is how I like doing business.
I called some outfits to get quotes and had a good response and decided on Chris Speidel of Corner Stone Gardens. We reviewed my needs and wants and with his input put together a preliminary proposal. I had accepted that tentatively until some further thought and input, mostly from Chris, developed an enhancement that would increase the results more than the first plan. I accepted the idea and we scheduled the job. I was greeted that day on time by Chris and his assistant and they started that was it except for me taking a peek at the progress. A few hours later Chris asked for me to take a look at the finished product.
I did and it was perfect.
Cannot get better than that.
