SIVELLS MASONRY INC

Did not return call after leaving repeated messages. I might hire them in the future if they responded to me.

The work began when they said it would, it proceeded as planned. They cleaned up each day, explained what they would do and finished as planned on budget. The men were very courteous and the result is beautiful.

They did a perfect job and I was very happy with their work. They were very nice and I would definitely hire them again. I will recommend them as well.

I don't often write glowing reviews since I have unusually high standards for the work performed on our home. But in the case of the work done by Sivells Masonry I will make an exception. The quality of the work done and the absolute attention to detail were the best I've experienced with any contractor on any home project in the past 40 years. If something wasn't done perfectly the crew tore it out and redid it without being asked to do so. In most of those cases I couldn't even see the imperfections but they were not satisfied. After each day's work they completely cleaned the work area, leaving it as though they had never been there. They kept us informed as to what they were doing and answered all of our questions. I strongly recommend Sivells without hesitation. The work crew of Alex, Mario and Adam were as close to artisans as you will find.

They are top notch. Price was wonderful Highly recommend.

Came with a crew, they knew what they were doing to a 100-year-old house, got it done in jig time. Great work!

He was very responsive, professional, and explained his entire process to us when coming out to estimate. Quick to schedule a meeting and provide a competitive quote. We would have hired him to do the job if a family friend hadn't offered to do it for us. I would contact him in the future for any masonry project.

Scott Sivells and his 3 work companions did an outstanding job. They were very professional in everything that they did. The project took about 5 days to complete. They put up scaffolding the first day and game back every day except when it rained to complete the job. They cleaned up the work space every day after they were done for that day. The workmanship is truly outstanding and my wife and I are very pleased with the results. We would hire them again when and if a need arises. We would also highly recommend them and their work to anyone looking for chimney repairs or other masonry work. In addition to doing a great job for us they were extremely nice people and very easy to work with. I interviewed 5 different chimney repair companies before making my decision. i am very pleased that I picked Sivells Masonry Inc. to do the job. PLEASE SHARE MY REVIEW WITH SCOTT SIVELLS AND THE BAND OF NEIGHBORS, BUT I WOULD APPRECIATE IT IF YOU WOULD NOT INCLUDE MY ADDRESS OR THE PRICE PAID FOR THE PROJECT.

As a follow up to a previous review, Sivells did eventually complete the repair work at my mother's home. They did an excellent job, even doing a few extras at no charge. They were very polite and cleaned up well when finished. My mother is very happy with the work. My main complaint is still the lack of communication. An actual start date had been promised and that day long came and went with no contact. I understand jobs running over but I fail to see why a quick phone call to those waiting is so difficult.

Did not go anywhere! Could never get a quote.If they can"t even give you the courtesy of return call on a quote, I would have serious concerns on their ability to schedule or complete the job or on time

There were some issues with our chimney that needed looked at. I did some research here on Angie's List and found three different providers to get some estimates and suggestions for what repairs are actually needed. The other two providers I chose not to use, gave me an estimate for rebuilding the top of the chimney. They said it wouldn't be worth our time to simply do repair work. I was willing to do so, if that was the opinion of all three, but wasn't going to do it if it was necessary. When Sivells Masonry came to give the estimate, I was very please that he took the time to give options. He did say at one point we should seriously consider rebuilding the top of the chimney, but also stated he could do repair work, hammer in the one block that was protruding due to ice damage and seal everything up so that the leak issues would be resolved. He explained the materials he used, the warranty they offer and gave me an estimate of when the work would be completed, should we choose to use his service. Once we agreed to have the work completed by Sivells, they were very good about following up with us to try and schedule the repair. The weather played a role in getting it completed quickly, but that aside, I feel they did a great job of keeping me informed and completed the work as quickly as possible. They arrived on time, completed the work within the time frame given and were very pleasant and professional. I was so impressed with the work and their demeanor that I recommended them to my mother and they completed work for her as well. When I am ready to have chimney work completed again...they will be my FIRST call.

I sent an e-mail on 9/16 thru Angie's list to get an estimate on some brick work. I was never contacted by this company.

Absolutely no response from him.

The contractor was thorough, punctual, and friendly. He explained the pros and cons of doing the work (complete replacement vs. patch). It took a while to get the work scheduled due to delays on a previous site, but once it was on the schedule the job was done promptly. Everything was cleaned up in the front yard after each day's work. Neighbors stopped by and commented on the job and asked for the contractor's contact information. The next time we need concrete work done we will call Sivell's Masonry right away, and may not even bother with second quotes.

We had a chimney that leaked and caused damage to the firebox. They had to replace 42 rows of brick on the large chimney and several rows on the small furnace chimney. ( I had two other bids and those companies did not quote the small chimney damage because they didn't even look at the smaller chimney). They added a new masonry cap and caulked the flashing around the chimneys. Mr. Sivell and I walked around the house and he pointed out areas that needed tuck pointing to seal the house. On completion of the job, I could not tell the new from the old brick because Sivell's had secured matching brick and tinted the mortar to match the aged and weathered mortar. If I had not seen the demo, I would not have believed the matching results. I was so afraid that the new construction would be obvious but this was not the case with these professionals. Chimneys and brick look great! I did have some damage to the flowers underneath the work area but don't know how that could have been avoided. I waited to file the review because I wanted to see if the chimney was repaired and I am happy to say yes. We had several fires in our new firebox this winter.

I believe the company specializes in small masonry repair and work. The workers were great and I've had no problems with them.

Scott returned my phone call and was able to meet me at the time we discussed. He prepared and returned a quote to me in a timely manner. I notified him that he won my bid and we scheduled a time for him to do the work. Scott and his son arrived on time the day of work, did professional work, were more than courteous to not only me but the other contractors working on the house and finished on time. What more can you ask for? Over all, Scott was timely, professional, and did not try to upsell me on anything I dont need. I would (and already have) recommended them and would definitely use them again in the future.

Quote requested for repairs and never heard from contractor.

How disappointing! Scott came and spent a lot of time at our house. He seemed very knowledgeable and was very thorough. He said that he would e-mail me a quote early the next week. I never heard anything back for 2 weeks, then received a phone message stating that they thought they had the wrong e-mail and would I please call to confirm my e-mail address. I called and spoke to a very nice woman who took my correct info and promised that an estimate would come that night by e-mail. Have never heard anything back, either by e-mail or by phone.

I didn't go.. He never returned my call.

He was a bit later coming than we had hoped, but once they got started, they did and excellent job of rebuilding a chimney that had been crumbling away. This included the brickwork, the flashing, and the coating of the finished chimney. They also were so kind as to help the 94 year-old lady of the house with straightening up a garden statue.

I contacted this firm for repairs to our loading dock block work. I never received any response.

I contacted this firm because of the reviews. How they every got so many positive reviews I'll never know. I telephoned twice never a courtesy of a return call. If your too busy to accept new work at least telephone back to say so. Don't waste your time dealing with these people.

We called this provider because they had many positive reviews. I truly do not understand how they got these reviews if they ignore phone messages like this. I would be very uneasy ever using this company. I notice that there are other people who had this same experience. I understand people being busy. But my initial phone call was 5 weeks ago and we have heard nothing.

I have the same complaint as another reviewer. Someone came to my house on Thursday (6/06) to look at the work. The person took notes, took photos, and told me that he would email me the estimate that night. I called the following Tuesday (6/11) to say that I never received the estimate. Another week has passed and I didn't hear back from anyone so I followed up with an email asking for the estimate (6/18). In the end I never received a response - no phone call, no email, no estimate. In the meantime I've gotten estimates from three other Angie's List A-rated masonry companies. I'm just glad to know I'm not the only one this has happened to.
