About us

Dependable Construction Company, Inc. specializes in work dealing with masonry restoration and construction, but we can help you with any project. If we aren't able to do the work, we can recommend a qualified contractor. When you work with Dependable Construction, you will work directly with the owner that started out as a laborer and progressed to tuckpointing and bricklaying. With over 30 years of experience, you can be sure you will be dealing with a qualified company. Sometimes you may have to wait a little longer to get the work done because we do not subcontract the work unless we absolutely have to. It will be worth the wait.

Description of Work: I am providing this company with a good rating because they responded to my inquiry quickly and professionally. I wasn't able to use them because they were booked out for some time, but the fact that they let me know that up front is well appreciated.

Description of Work: I needed part of a brick foundation wall to be repaired. When Joe came to give the estimate, he was very straightforward and clear in what was needed to be done (and, what was not needed to be done as well). He scheduled me within 2 weeks, his guys came in as planned, and they did a great job. I would certainly use them again for masonry work.

Description of Work: I purchased a Big Deal for 4 hours of Masonry Repair from Dependable Construction. Joe came out to take a look and thought that it was something that we could DIY ourselves instead of using his services. I appreciated his honest advice. We took his suggestion and did not redeem the coupon. Since he did not complete the work, we are requesting a refund.

Description of Work: Joe came out to look at fixing my chimney that was a lot wobbly. The chimney needed a complete rebuild. I had purchased a big deal coupon and with that included was given a very competitive price. Joe's team did the work while I was away and I came home to a brand new chimney. The guys cleaned up and you wouldn't have known they were there. I was very pleased and would recommend Dependable Construction.

Response from Dependable Construction
Absolutely not true. Customer bought the four man hour deal from Angie's list for residential work. When the customer called I went out and looked at the work (it was a factory). Customer was not there but I looked at the work anyway. When the customer called me back I told him that the deal was for residential work (it is clearly stated on the coupon). I also told him that there was more work than four man hours, I asked if he would like me to give him an estimate for the rest of the work and that if I got the work I will honor the deal. He said that he wanted to do only the four man hours. I asked the customer if he has any residential property that is masonry, he said yes so I told him I would be more than happy to honor the deal on his residential property but not for the business. The customer declined the offer.

Great!
Description of Work: Great work crew came to do some tuckpointing for our house. They were very thorough, clean, professional and great to have. The crew inspected around the house twice to ensure nothing was missed. I recommend their services and will hire them again for future jobs.

I recieved mulitple quotes for this project. Joe worked with me on price after I communicated what the other vendors were offering. Joe came down to an agreeable price and he spoke good english so we were able to communicate well. Project went well. Joe and his team were punctual, professional and provided quality work. They took care of a couple minor additional items without charging additional money. It was a pleasure to work with this company and I will come back for repear quotes and business.
Description of Work: Dependable spot tuckpointed roughly 10 cracks, repaired stairwells going to garden units, tuckpointed brick landscapes in courtyard, caulked 6 window sills and replaced 2 walls with common brick.

Joe came for an estimate about a month before he started working. He came to do the work and found more tuckpointing that needed to be done and completed all the work and honored his original estimate amount. The job was done very satisfactorily and left the job neat and clean.

We were initially referred to Dependable Construction by family members who were very happy with the firm's tuck pointing work done on their home. We too were very pleased with their performance. All aspects of the contract were completed in a professional and workmanlike manner and at a reasonable and competitive price. Specifically the crew took the time to properly prepare and protect work areas, worked steadily, and left the property in very good condition at the end of the project. Overall we were very satisfied with the quality of the work performed and would be happy to refer them to others as well. A very good choice!
