We contacted Bruno's after getting proposals from nearly ten masonry contractors. (Several were listed on Angie's List -two had Angie's coupon offers but refused to honor them, both stating that Angie's had posted the coupons without their knowledge or consent.) Bruno's was referred to us by two different friends who had used them & been happy with their work. The owner, Mike Bruno, was very nice, seemed really honest and showed us many pictures of outstanding work that they had done. He sent a worker (with 25 years experience) out to tuckpoint our single-flue chimney the next business day after we contracted with them. A couple of days later we called them with a small concern and they came out immediately to correct the issue. As we weren't home during this second visit, they called us to make sure we were happy with the additional work (which was done at no additional charge.) Bruno's fees were mid-range price-wise as far as the other proposals we had gotten, but they are perfectionists and will stand behind their work. Mike showed us a picture of a job they had done where they couldn't get brick to match (due to unavailability) and they used WHITE brick, then stained the brick various colors so that it would match perfectly. Very impressive. Anyway, we are very happy with their work and would definitely recommend them to our friends.
Description of Work: We contacted them to do tuckpointing on our single-flue chimney. They repaired four feet (instead of the usual three) and applied crown seal on the cap.

It was a horrible experience.
Description of Work: I called Bruno's to make an appointment for an estimate on my apartment building approximately on 8/8/11. I wanted a rep to meet me and my husband at the building in the afternoon--anytime after 2:30p. I was told that this was impossible. All of their field guys work in the morning. They have a system whereas they go to the property and take digital pictures and call the customer back to give and discuss the quote. I was told this process would be completed within 2-3 days. Time past and I did not here from this company. I followed up and was told someone will be going on that side of town tomorrow and he will be giving you a call. No call. I called again, and was told that the secretary will be calling me back with a status--that didn't happen. I called agin and was told that the rep who had my order was downtown getting permits for other jobs and I was list on his itineray and therefore he would definitely get to me tomorrow. No call and still waiting. I call once more and was told someone will definitely call me back. I then was asked do you still want the estimate done? This made me think that I am not ever going to hear from this company for what ever reason, they do not want to do business with me. I just wish they would tell me in the beginning instead of wasting my time and phone cost. This is terrible business tactics. I have to go into the hospital on 9/14/11 and I want to get this work settled. Thanks for nothing!

We appreciated the quick response to our call and the professionalism of the company. The company has a good reputation here in our township and we would probably call them again to ask them to bid on a project.
Description of Work: We received a quote for $3000 to build the brick-enclosed mailbox and a matching column on the otherside of the driveway. We decided that was more money than we wanted to put into a brick mailbox.

Once the tear-off of the old roof started we learned from the roofer that there were significant masonry problems. Our roofer had two preferred subcontractors they used in the past and I asked if they wouldn't mind if we asked Bruno's to also provide us a quote. Dick was able to come out the same day when I called them. Of the three quotes, Bruno's was more than 50% less than the other quotes. Fortunately, Bruno's approach was to leave intact the old bricks that were in good condition, where the other two contractors quotes were based on complete removal of all the old brick regardless of the integrity of the old brick. Bruno's was here the day after the quote, doing the work the next morning, so that the roofing work could continue. We did have a contractor v. contractor concern over leaving the old brick that was easily settled when our roofer decided to call the roofing material mfg who warranties the overall work and he also approved the work that Bruno's was doing. Bruno's even used more brick per the quote they did not charge us for.
Description of Work: When have used Bruno's three or four times as needed for our building masonry over the past 3 or 4 years. The last time was in conjunction with a roofing job in the late spring of '08. When we did the roof tear off we learned we had masonry problems that needed to be taken care of quickly so that the roofing work could continue. We hired Bruno's to do the tuckpointing on our roof.

I found Bruno's on Angie's List and from their reviews I decided to email them with a request for a quote on my job. I had asked them to call on my cell phone. In less than 15 minutes I received a call from my wife wanting to know when I was going to tell her that we were having a quote done on the house. Glenn Velasquez from Bruno's received the email message from his office and was in the area, so he just stopped by. He was very professional while my wife gave me "expletive" for not telling her he was coming. Glenn was able to get all the info he needed for the quote and I had it 2 days later in writing explaining everything they were to do and the price of $495.00 which I thought was an absolute bargain. Glenn arrived with Steve who preformed the work, at the time that they had promised and finished in less than 2 hours. Please note that this was a small job, but they did an excellent job and I would use them again in a Heart Beat. In fact I gave Glenn 3 leads in my neighborhood where I had spotted the same problem that I was having. Thanks Angie for having this service. I'm sure this job saved me the cost of the membership.

Their work seemed to be adequate. It is not something that is easy for me to judge. I know that a lot of people around here use this company which is why I picked them. Overall, I am satisfied with them.
Description of Work: They tuck pointed around the water heater in the basement and inside my garage they fixed two large walls. They took a few days to complete everything.
