We were very concerned about getting our house tuck pointed. We had seen many bad jobs in our area, and really wanted a superior job. We wanted to preserve the outline and integrity of the individual bricks. DL listened to what we wanted. We looked at the tuck pointing he had done on his own house, and were very impressed with his work. He gave us an estimate far below the others we had received. He showed up on time, cleaned up the area, and was done in 3 days! Most importantly, he did an amazing job on our bricks. He really cares about his work - a true craftsman in every way. We are thrilled with the result - our house does not have that "just tuck pointed" look at all. We strongly recommend him.
Description of Work: We had the front of our house tuck pointed - all face brick.

The overall job was done in a professional manner. The price was very reasonable. Danny arrived a little early and completed the job in a reasonable amount of time. He was very professional. I was very satisfied with his work. I would hire him again!
Description of Work: The original job consisted of Filling in holes, cracks and missing mortar that were grinded and tuckpointed. This was near my gutters and on one side of house. When they arrived and per my request, DL Construction also filled additional cracks and the joint where common bricks meet the face bricks from the bottom to the top that were grinded and tuckpointed. In addition, DL construction replaced 2 chipped bricks with 2 new bricks.

We have used DL Construction before and are very pleased with their work. Danny does excellent work! He takes pride in his work, which is a rare quality these days.
Description of Work: We needed outside caulking done where the sidewalk meets the house. We also needed some mortar repaired on our brick home. This was a small job but Danny was more than happy to do it.

The work was fantastic, and we were given options on price that related to how closely we wanted to match the existing decorative finish. Even with the more expensive facade, it was affordable and quality work.
Description of Work: Removed old air conditioner from an exterior wall and bricked in the aperture.

He did superior work. You can’t tell it is not the original. He did a lot of work for a very reasonable price. I would recommend him to anybody and they would be satisfied. He explains everything. He is easy to talk to and work with.
Description of Work: He did some tuck pointing work. He repaired the chimney as well. He mortared the lentils to seal them. He made sure that no water would get in through the windows, doorways, or stairs.

Danny did a very professional job! He was honest up front about being unsure about how much success he would have in grinding out the joints in the wall that were covered in tar. As a result he offered two proposals--one if he encountered problems and another if he didn't. It turned out that he was able to grind out the joints completely. In addition, while working, he discovered other problem areas adjacent to the wall, and he repaired those, too. Clean-up was very thorough! In addition, Danny and his office manager are good communicators--in writing, on the phone, and in person. There was never any doubt in my mind what was going to happen, or when, or how. I'm VERY pleased recommend DL without qualifications.
Description of Work: DL tuckpointed and repaired a problem wall on my roof that is the probable cause of water leaking in my house. One side of the wall had been coated in tar many years ago, complicating the repair.

We are very happy with the final product, and we highly recommend Danny. We contacted a number of contractors, including those on Angie's List. Unlike most other contractors, Danny and Ali took the time to talk with us about our project. Others just blindly sent a proposal on what they felt was necessary. We were timely given an estimate via email, and references were provided upon request. We took the opportunity to look at Danny's work in person, and his tuckpointing work, from job to job (4), was consistent and of high quality. The job was started a few days earlier than estimated, and he stayed on the job until complete. Each day he prepped and cleaned the work areas. He is a one man crew, and works harder than any other worker we have hired. He came at 8:00 and worked until he finished a phase of job (one night at 7:30). The work met our expectations, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to family, friends and Angie's members.
Description of Work: We hired Danny to repair crumbling mortar and cracks between the brick and mortar, and to chemically clean our chimney and north walls. All the horizontal and vertical mortar joints were cut out about 3/4" and there was absolutely no damage to the bricks. Danny then meticulously placed the mortar in the joints by layering, compacting and tooling the joints flush. No joints were missed and the color is consistent. The re pointing was incredibly clean and the finished walls/chimney needed little cleaning. The chemical cleaning amazingly restored our chimney and walls to like new condition.

They were a pleasure to work with. I received five estimates for this job and they were the second lowest. They were recommended by a friend that used them for multiple jobs. They brought photographs and referrals when they gave me the quote and all contracts were sent via email so I had everything in writing. They left the worksite very clean and the work looks fantastic.
Description of Work: Rebuilt chimney from middle of second story to top. Damaged bricks/ bricks with mineral deposits replaced. The mortar was ground out and all was tuck pointed. Chimney was chemically cleaned and a new chimney cap was poured.
