Excellent! On time, friendly, professional, made sure I got exactly what I wanted. Followed a picture I had texted him and it turned out exactly like the picture. Would definitely hire again and recommend him highly to anyone needing brickwork.

This contractor arrived at the job site on time and promptly set-up and began work. During the demolition it became apparent the crew leader misunderstood the job, and correcting that resulted in sugninficant additional charge to me as the customer with no acknowledgement by the contractor that they had a role in the miscommunication, I.e., the cost of the mistake was entirely shifted from the contractor to me. This should have been a shared issue. Once corrected the project moved forward well. Clean up of the job site was pretty limited with lots of debris left behind for me to clean. And I also ended up patching some of the mortar where daylight was shining through, indicating gaps.

It went very well! The team was punctual, didn't waste any time, worked very hard, were very friendly, and did a great job for a very reasonable price! No question that we made the right decision to go with them, and no way we could have done this 10+ ton job ourselves!

I contacted Michael and he was quick to return my call. He got the details and then went and purchased all the material and dropped it off at my house. Due to the weather, the construction was postponed by a day. He completed the mailbox in one day and then came back a few days later to acid wash it. He made sure all of the debris from the old mailbox was cleaned and hauled away. I would recommend him if you need a brick mailbox built or rebuilt.

Service was fabulous. Michael was very responsive, quick with an estimate, very punctual in answering questions and thorough. He also saved me a trip to Lowe's and picked-up the mailbox for me for installation. One of the best subcontractors I've ever used. The work looked awesome! Since I live out of town he took the time to text me pictures of the finished project, too.

I contacted Michael for a estimate and he showed up, wrote down the info and gave me a estimate within 24 hours. I had some bricks on the front of my home that did not match the rest of the house and were very uneven and just made my home look bad. They showed up exactly when they said they would. The were very professional and answered all of my questions. They tore out the old bricks and put the new ones in all in one day. It was about 425 bricks or so. They cleaned up the whole area and hauled off the old brick. They did a fantastic job.The new, matching bricks make my home look beautiful. I am so happy to have it done right!! I would definitely recommend them to everyone. I have other jobs for my home and business and they will be doing the work. It's nice to finally find a brick mason company I can call and I know it will be done right the first time.

Did not use service vendor due to unresponsiveness.
Description of Work: Called for an estimate, he said he would come in roughly 2weeks. After a month, he never showed so I texted him to remind him. He said he would get to me in a day or two. I heard nothing. So I found another vendor.

Response from Michael's Masonry
I would like to start by saying I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. It is unusual for me to not follow through with my customers. That particular week I had several events arise that needed my immediate attention, in the confusion it must have slipped my mind. Again I apologize. *If reading this review please take the time to read my other reviews and you will find that I am efficient and take pride in my work.

Michael came by late in the afternoon as scheduled and gave his opinion on the scope of the work and an estimate of the labor costs to repair the fireplace. Since he did not know how many bricks would be salvageable, he said he would only charge the actual costs of the materials used and would provide me with a receipt for the those materials.We agreed on the price and terms then set a time for him to do the work. The following morning, Michael and a helper arrived on time and ready for work. When they started tearing out the firebricks, it was necessary to increase the scope of work since some of the bricks were looser than expected. Michael did not charge additional labor, and he and his helper were on the job for a total of.six hours! When the job was completed, Michael presented me with his bill which was for the amount we had previously agreed upon. He also gave me the receipt for the materials which I added to the labor. Before they left, they cleaned up the work areas, both inside the house and in the yard where they had been cutting the bricks.Michael then gave me instructions on how to "cure" the mortar before using the fireplace.
Description of Work: Relined an almost 70 year old fireplace by replacing six firebricks and cleaning and reusing the remainder of the old, but good firebricks. Repaired and repointed the mortar joints where they were damaged or missing.

Mr. Williams was very responsive when we called. Provided a detailed estimate in less than 24 hours that was reasonable for work that needed to be done. From time we contacted Mr. Williams to the completion of the project was one week. This included buying the necessary supplies, delivering to our home, and scheduling the construction to include removing all the old masonry bricks. Very personable individual, prompt and courteous. Will hire again if we need further masonry work. Highly recommended!

My neighbor accidentally hit my brick mailbox with his vehicle, completely destroying it. After searching hours and hours for a masonry contractor, I decided to give Angie's List a try. Within seconds, I was able to find an A rated masonry contractor in my area. Michael, from Michael's Masonry, was very prompt, professional, and extremely competitive on his price. Within two days of calling him, he completely rebuilt my mailbox - making it even better than the original one that was destroyed. The best part - he was almost 1/2 the price of comparable contractors. With Michael's permission, I created a time-lapse video of his beautiful work. You can see for yourself the quality of his work here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ecTIHDhxQUgand feature=youtu.be

Michael's Masonry was a bit hard to contact. He did come by and leave an estimate. After I chose him to do the job, I selected the brick at a local company and Michael's Masonary did the rest. The mailbox was well built and the site was left clean and neat. I felt the price was a bit high, but the work was done well and finished that day.

First of all, Michael was very responsive and took the time one evening to come by the house and walk around with me for an estimate. He seemed very knowledgeable and prudent about how to go about fixing the problems in the best way, and he was very organized when he got out his papers to give me copies of his insurance and business license, which I requested. I made an appointment, but I originally had to reschedule because it had poured rain all day before the appointment, and it was raining then, too; I thought it was a bad idea to seal up the gaps in the wall when there was probably plenty of moisture inside it. Michael agreed, and said he would call me after the next couple of days of clear, sunny, dry weather for it to air out. I assumed I would probably have to call him to get him out to the house again, but I was pleasantly surprised when he called without my prompting to arrange to come out the following day. He and his assistant were on time and began work right away. They spent most of the day (8-11am, then lunch break, then another three hours) at the house, and he used the same type (but a richer mixture) of white mortar to bind the joints after he grinded out the old crumbled mortar, so that it would still adhere after drying. The color is almost identical, but just fresher, newer without the patina of age on it. They also grooved the mortar joints to make it look the same as the rest of the wall. The angled brick window sill was by far the most impressive-looking repair--one can't even tell that the bricks and mortar are new replacements. It looks perfect. The filled gaps--even as wide as they were, look great, too. Even better, Michael went around the house filling any other little holes or cracks that he saw since he was already out there with the fresh, wet mortar--repairing a huge gap around a pipe that came out of the house from the water heater and that someone had tried to fill with poor-quality foam insulation decades ago, for example. Other than the fact that some of the normal-width grooves were not as polished and shapely-clean as the old mason's (and I'm really picky and detail-oriented, which is why I put a B instead of an A--I would have put B+!), I was thoroughly impressed with their work and thought it well worth the $350, especially since they had to work in the blazing sun on the apex of a steep roof to repair the chimney, among other things. I will definitely use Michael's Masonry again, and I highly recommend them. They are excellent workers, courteous, professional, and reasonably priced.
Description of Work: Michael and an assistant repaired the step cracks and missing/crumbling bricks in my 1938 house. There were at least three significant cracks/gaps that ran from the gables down many feet each from settling in the foundation over time, and the corner bricks from the central chimney at the top of a steep roof and some window sill bricks were missing.

Michael came when he said he would at 5 PM after finishing another job and got right to it. He also repaired a large crack between the bricks around the corner - above and beyond at no additional cost. No need to go anywhere else for masonry work.
