In the past, I have used Hynek construction to removed an old AC unit from a brick wall and closed the wall up with matching bricks. Hynek Construction went to two different brickyards to find bricks that would match the existing ones, I knew then, I had found a quality company. This time around, Hynek Construction replaced the window lintels around the building. Hynek Construction offers excellent pricing, great communication, and a clean and professional team. My parents have used them for tuckpointing their home and their neighbors home as well. Top notch company!

I needed to have my chimney tuck-pointed. I’m in the process of selling my home and Hynek Construction was quick to contact me, come out and provide an estimate. They were able to complete the job quickly and during a day that was warm enough to complete the work. Work was completed with an additional add on the same day.

Couldn't be happier. We found Hynek because he was doing work at our neighbors house. I spoke to my neighbor and they were really happy with his work. He came right over and gave us a fair estimate. We had a section of brick that over the years began to fail due to water infiltration. While our house is fairly old he was able to find us a brick that blended well with what we have. His guys were very courteous, clean and fast. I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again and I will hire him again as I'll be needing tuckpointing in the next few years.

I hired this company few months back to replace few of my rotted lintels. I should have know from the first conversation that he was hardly listening to me. After he send me a proposal and assured me if I change all the lintels and tuck point the facade where it is necessary this would solve my problem. This would end up costing me $9,250. I believed him. After his guys showed up and replaced the lintels and than tuck point the facade of the building, in the first rain two of the windows started to leak water right directly behind the new lintels and ruining the freshly done drywall and plaster. at this point for this I spent another $500 for plaster and drywall. I texted him about the leakage he is in his sarcastic way lectured me and said basically it is not his problem. He is done the work that is it. When I persisted and said if he wants the rest of his money he needs to come and take a look. Than he showed up try to convince me water must be trickling down from the third floor way on the other side of the building to the second floor middle windows right behind the lintels!! The miracle was on the way to that long path water did not damaged anything else! I insisted his guys would come with the ladder and take a look. After 15 minutes firm insisting he agreed. While I was away he said they will come on the text. I was away so I did not see what they have done. He never communicated me about this further Upon my return I assume no more water will come and hire painters paid another $800 fix the damage! However today rained hard and freshly painted window wall is ruined again. I text him to fix the problem. I got a nasty note instead of apology! I would not hire Hynek ever again on the base of my experience! He is rude and not a person stands by his work!

Response from Hynek Construction
Owner contacted me regarding strong leak on her renting place. I set up a meeting with the owner next day. She explained, that her budget is $4,000.- and that she is only interested in doing tuckpointing. When I saw the front Elevation, first thing I have noticed was, big damage on all lintels, with major cracks. I have explained to her, that tuckpointing won't fix the problem, all lintels needs to be replaced, because the lintels caused major structure problems and water can go anywhere into the masonry work. During my estimate I have asked to look inside where the damage was, but she said no, it is the law. Owner had signed the contract for $9,250.- included city permit to replace the 10 lintels and tuckpoint major crack. The first day on the job, she was screaming at my guys that they are not suppose to step on any bushes and grass. We also asked for access to electricity and water. She had an issue with that. My guys have called me to ask, if they should continue on the project. I said yes, let's help her. After a week, the project was done. I have sent her the invoice for remaining balance. She responded that she will be in Europe for month and that she will pay me after she comes back. I have received a text from the owner before she went out of town. She had sent me pictures of damaged plaster on second floor inside. I met with the owner next day, once again asking to have a look inside. I have discovered hard damaged on 3rd floor ceiling, which is above from window lintels. When I told her that she has to rebuild parapet wall, she got very angry. All of the damage is behind triple brick wall starting from 3rd floor ceiling. But once again , I sent my guys to fix what customer had ask on second floor, knowing that the water leaking is coming from different part of the building. After her vacation, I received a text saying that I have to finish what I have stared, because there is another leak.The customer wanted me to rebuild her parapet wall free of charge. Customer said the I have made a wrong decision.

After requesting quotes and speaking with several companies, we decided to go with Hynek. Quick to respond, experienced and professional, sent clearly written and fair estimate of costs which included options so we could work within our budget. Super friendly work crew. It was clear they cared about quality work which was evidenced by the beautiful result. They matched the color of the good bricks perfectly. So glad I found them.

Hynek Construction was by far the best experience I’ve had with any contractor. A few weeks ago I need a stone above a window tuck-pointed and re-secured as it had become dislodged. After calling and setting up an appointment for a quote Hynek arrived at the exact time as promised. Shortly thereafter I was given a detailed written quote. After agreeing to the quote, his team arrived at the promised time, quickly assembled the scaffolding, and repaired the stone and mortar. This company is by far the most professional that I’ve ever used. All debris was cleaned, his team was prompt and friendly, and they really knew what they were doing. I also received a final invoice detailing that I’d paid in full a few days after the work was done. From start to finish Hynek Construction sets an extremely high standard that other companies could only hope to achieve. Thanks again and if we ever need anymore masonry work I’ll know who to call!

The entire experience with Hynek was positive. He is clearly a masonry expert and spent a lot of time explaining the work that my home required. We discussed a variety of options and (after a second visit to my property!) came up with a plan that addressed my most urgent needs and one that I could afford. His crew was prompt and efficient and respectful of me, my family, neighbors and yard. Safety was a priority which is very important to me as a trauma care professional. Hynek did not require his men to work on 2 dangerously hot days which also impressed me greatly. The finished work is beautiful. The clean up was exceptional surpassing my expectations. I will recommend Hynek to my fussiest friends and will certainly use him again on my 101 year old 3 flat!

This is our second time working with Hynek and we couldn't be happier. His craftsmanship and is just beautiful- his crew's attention to detail and quality of the work is perfect, which was important since it was the front and side of the house. He had quoted the second phase of the job last year and he took care of every last detail this year. We didn't know exactly what needed to be done but he saw every flaw and made a detailed quote- his estimate came promptly and he followed through. The mortar and bricks used for our 1930s-era house matches beautifully and his crew fixed messy work done by earlier homeowners. The lintel replacement looks strong and perfectly matched (and our previous lintel/mortar repair from last year is still perfect). The crew cleaned each brick individually and took care to match the mortar color. They were fast and efficient and cleaned as they went and left the yard and porch spotless and also explained the details of what they did on the house. I would recommend Hynek to anyone who cares about getting high quality masonry, tuckpointing and lintel repair done!! We would definitely hire him again for any future work. Thanks to Hynek, the house looks better than it did when we bought it!

I was looking for a bricklayer to repair side parapets in a 100-plus-year-old building and fix three roof chimneys that seemed to need repair almost annually. The first quote I received was for lots of piecemeal repair. My second quote was from Hynek Construction. Right away Hynek brought to my attention the difference between repair and rebuild. I had deteriorating common brick on one full parapet and about half-to-3/5 of a second parapet. Plus there were those crumbling chimneys, which had been repaired several times in the past. By the time we had finished the conversation I was ready to commit to full parapet repair and removal of two of the unused chimneys. Haynek also suggested I replace worn-out, cracked clay copings. Like my initial conversation with Hynek, the estimate was very specific - right down to the number of brick courses and number of bricks for each area and specifics on the roof replacement where the chimneys had been. Hynek recommended replacing the common brick with new brick instead of cleaned up, recycled common brick and gave me several samples to choose from. Like other rebuilt parapets I have seen, the new brick sample I chose does not detract from the building. The crew did an excellent job. They carefully blended the new brick into a section of one parapet that had been rebuilt by a previous owner. They also took the time to fix a few small things that were not in the contract. Best of all, they left the property cleaner than it was when they started, were punctual and were respectful of me, my tenants and neighbors who could have easily been inconvenienced by work in the tight gangways. Based on my previous experiences with brick layers, this was nothing short of a small miracle. I believe in getting a job done right the first time and am pleased that I hired Haynek Construction to do just that.
Description of Work: The main job was to replace brick parapet walls on the east and west sides of my 100+-year-old building, including new clay copings, rebuilding one roof chimney and removing two others. The company also rebuilt a brick garage chimney, installed a new flue liner, a new cap and rain hood.

Response from Hynek Construction
On Thursday the 19th it was very rainy day. I had 10 estimates that day. My fourth estimate of the day I was surprisingly early by 20 minutes. I have sent text message to the customer that I’m already here. Most of my clients appreciate when I’m early or on time. I have received a text back from a customer that we agreed to meet at 10:15am. After the rain stooped, I have inspected quickly all the Elevations on building, what needs to be done. At 10:10am it started raining again, so I went to the car a texted the customer asking if he is still coming. At 10:15am someone drove by me fast and parked in the middle of the street and ran around the building. In no time I got call from the customer asking me where I’m at. I told him that I’m sitting in my truck. I went to the back of the property. The second I saw him he started screaming at me and calling me bad names telling me that how is he supposed to know that I am sitting in the truck. So, I turned and left the property. In 15 years in my business, no one ever called me names.

Our old house had deteriorated lintels and also needed some masonry repair around the windows and elsewhere. Hynek stopped by promptly for the estimate and explained the issues. He worked with us to break the big project into stages (lintels had to be removed and new ones installed), which was a huge help to us. His crew did such a professional and beautiful job- they are the best. They were so efficient and fast and cleaned up every last bit of materials it was beautiful workmanship. We were so happy with the work, we are hiring them again!

Hynek came out on time gave us a fair price and did exceptional work. He was very knowledgeable about what we needed done and explained everything in detail to what our options were. We had our driveway completely removed and repoured, our chimney rebuilt and a portion of out home tuckpointed. The Anyway Concrete company that removed our existing driveway and repoured our new one did a excellent job. Overall very pleased with all services done. My neighbor said we have the nicest Chimney in the neighborhood. We will definitely rehire again for any other masonry work needed. Thanks Hynek!

We had the lintel over the front picture window replaces and spot tuckpointing work was done on the chimney and rest of house. I got quotes from 4 well reviewed masons. Hynek was chosen. He was chosen mainly because he provided the fastest and most detailed proposal. The price was very competitive and was able to make minor adjustments to the work plan as needed to match the other proposals. The work was performed as soon as the weather allowed. The 3 man crew was prompt (actually early) on the day of the work, and cleaned up completely when finished. Definitely recommended
