TK Mason,LLC

Excellent experience. Very detailed estimate with photos showing what was to be done & materials involved. Price was reasonable. TK Mason's employees showed on time, we're utterly professional, and maintained a safe work site. They took care not to damage any property and cleaned up after each day. I would highly recommend them.

I had a fantastic experience with TK Masson. They recently repaired the steps leading to my front door, and the results are outstanding. The team was professional, punctual, and clearly skilled at their craft. They took the time to explain the work that needed to be done and completed the project efficiently, with great attention to detail. My steps look better than ever sturdy, safe, and beautifully finished. I highly recommend them to anyone needing masonry work done right!

Update: Kyle contacted me the next day as he hadn't been made aware previously of the incident. He was very apologetic and offered to replace the damaged wood piece outside but I declined as I did not think that was necessary for the small area. He did come and wipe down the interior window trim with a sponge/solution which seems to have helped with the smoke smell. Hired TK Mason to perform some tuckpointing on the front of our house. I was happy with the estimate and scheduling process; price seemed fair. Time will tell as far as how the repairs hold up. There was a decent sized drip left on one area. During torching the flame apparently caught the siding and wasn't noticed. I was sitting inside and smelled something burning and then noticed smoke coming in the living room window. I ran outside, they poured some water on and thankfully the damage wasn't worse, but I shudder to think about what could've happened had I not been home for an unplanned sick day. The entire house including the basement smelled like smoke... after washing the curtains and having the windows open for hours in 20-something weather it's finally mostly normal. However the wood trim and drywall in that area of the living room reeks and will likely need to be repainted or replaced. Unfortunately based on this experience I cannot in good conscience recommend this business.

Excellent company and very responsive!

Nice people, excellent work!

Extremely well.

I think they're good.

My job was reconstruction of a large home chimney after a section of its field stone cladding crashed to the ground. The field stone cladding on the chimney is part of a 70 year old house that is field stone, plaster, and cypress wood paneling—a large “English cottage. This hard-working chimney vents not only the heating system but three large wood-burning fireplaces. It’s original construction, like the rest of the house, was to the highest standard as we learned when we finally got a look at the chimney’s interior tile which had been assumed in four work quotes to need replacing but was found to be in perfect condition (being twice as thick as tile generally used in construction today). While it was important to identify the underlying problem and repair it, I was a nervous wreck thinking about the importance of a superb cosmetic result if the integrity of a beautiful house were to be maintained. In addition to diagnostic error about the source of the moisture that was damaging the field stone, four contractors insisted that the only way to rebuild the chimney was to take it down and rebuild it from scratch. Only Tony was comfortable with the option of retaining the sturdy sections of the fieldstone (with new tuck pointing) and, using the old stones and re-grinding mortar to restore the rest. My idea was that preserving existing stone work would maximize the match of the chimney to the facade of the house. I can imagine, however, that contractors feared that a two-part chimney would not match to itself —which would be worse than a chimney that did not match to the house. That Tony was calm about technical challenges was part of what inspired my confidence in his expertise- and he happily delivered on it. T In contrast to Tony’s precise, pragmatic, (and frugal) approach, I felt other quotes were overly speculative, imprecise and cost-adding. I see two aspects to this: Pragmatic sequencing of work. We tackled the masonry repair first which had no drawbacks and had two advantages. It reduced the potential that further sections of the cladding might collapse —including potential harm of falling rocks (large and heavy). The rocks had already damaged shingles and the oak railings of a sun deck—and could endanger humans. Once Tony’s scaffolding was up and the condition of the chimney could be visually investigated, he worked collaboratively with a heating contractor (who does chimney linings) to diagnosis the problem— which was exterior not a problem with the lining. 2) Confidence in skill adequate to the cosmetic goal. I cynically suspect that doing everything (as in new construction) indicates either lack of confidence or, perhaps, motivation, to be parsimonious. Working with Tony was aa pleasure. He kept me apprised daily of progress. The work proceeded without any interruptions except for bad weather days. Each day I enjoyed close-up photos. I was particularly fascinated to see the reconstructed chimney before the last mortaring. In the end, I got the chimney I hoped for— the chimney is itself coherent (old and “new”) and blends well with the house. There is a new concrete cap on the chimney that overhangs slightly to protect against moisture. On Tony’s business letterhead *used for his quote and his invoice) is a logo that is hard to see except when enlarged on a monitor. I laughed because inset into the logo is a field stone chimney such as my job called for. Perfect. I’m wondering if buyers get their own customized stationary! I enthusiastically recommend this contractor for the easy jobs—and for the hard ones and to serve both high standards and value for money.

Verry well - on time - informative as what was beeing done and why - provided estimates as to the needed work before being the project - always cleaned up at the end of the day.

Very well. We were even provided with before and after pictures! Everything is sealed perfectly.

Tony and his assistant were prompt, courteous and determined to make sure I was happy with the work done. I appreciated having all my questions patiently answered. I am confident that if any problems would arise (I am confident that this will not be the case) Tony would respond promptly.

Very good communication as far as getting back to us. He was one of the only Mason's who returned our call. Easy to communicate with via text messaging. The problem was however that he relied on our measurements of the window and the type of cinder block and didn't come out to do an estimate himself. When he came to do the work he had the wrong size block and not enough. Ended up leaving a hole in the wall, where we could see directly outside from the basement. We were left to figure out how to block the hole to prevent rodents or water from getting into the basement. We were having a patio installed and they said they could fix the issue so this hole was short term, but disappointed that he felt this work was complete and well done. Although the job was quick, his thoroughness was lacking.

Well, he provided an inspection and written estimate for work to be completed.

Good good ok

We were on vacation when our job came up on the schedule, but we had water and electric available outside, so they were able to proceed. When we arrived home a day later and inspected the work, it was beautifully done and everything was cleaned up. I would certainly recommend TK Mason to my friends!

I had a good experience with TK Mason, but I am admittedly uneducated to know whether it was done well or not. The tuck pointing was done very thoroughly, we were very happy with it. TK Mason was the only one of 3 contractors we received quotes from who provided the option of having flashing and weep holes for replacement lintels, something that the internet claims is important (so take that for what it's worth), and even then the pricing was far lower than either of the other contractors. The work was conducted over 2 days, and we received notice a couple of days in advance that they would be available to work on the house. They also did a little bit of caulking at the threshold of the house at no additional charge.

It went very well! TK Mason did an excellent job repairing our concrete porch. The cap (which sat atop of the concrete blocks) was crumbling and broken and had become an eyesore. We did receive several quotes from other masons and his quote was mid-range. Tony showed up the next day to give us a quote and also gave us options on the stone he would use to repair our porch. He provided us with references and was prompt and professional throughout the whole process. We would highly recommend him to anyone needing a mason.

Toni and his helper are the best ,they were professional from start to finish ,answer any question i had and they did what they suppose to do. His quote was the best compare to other contractors and quality A+. I highly recommend TK Mason with no hesitation .
