John was very punctual and professional in assessment of the project. After several weeks of collecting other estimates, we chose John. When we reached out, however, we asked for proof of insurance to be mailed to us. Time went by, and it wasn't received. We reached out again, and this time we got a response, but they didn't have proof of insurance other than a bill - but we decided to move forward. We called back twice to actually schedule the project, and our calls were never returned. We'll move on to another vendor.

John Cooley and his crew did an excellent job on both projects - they look great. They were attentive to detail and did not try to cut corners. Very professional. John also worked with us to keep the price in a reasonable range. And after finishing, their clean up was thorough. Would definitely recommend them.

Great Falls originally built a stone fireplace in my family room. I was so happy with the results that I had them do interior walls of entire man cave basement with carderock stone. Later they built a three-tiered stone patio with retaining walls. The quality of stone work is the best!
Description of Work: Fireplace interior in carderock stock, full basement walls of man cave in carderock stone, 3 level / tiered patio in stone with stone walls. The best stonemasons in the region!

John returned my original call promptly. He came to give an estimate within one day of speaking with me. He repaired all of the brick steps around my home. He noted areas where the bricks had become uneven and leveled those. All of the work was completed within 2 weeks, despite our adding a few more items to his original list. We also had him fix part of our pool where tiles had been falling off. Each day, he left the site clean and very safe. He made sure that the mortar matched what was already in place so that the finished work was unnoticeable. It looked brand new when his team was done. it's nice to see true craftsmanship these days! After a few weeks it rained heavily and I notice that the water was pooling on top of the bricks. He told me that the bricks were slanted back towards our house instead of away from our house. He did not tell me that the pooling of water would occur. We had him come out again and he tore it all up. He charged us again to do it the right way which could of been avoided had he told us the ramifications in the first place.
Description of Work: Repaired 5 sets of brick steps, fixed pool tiles.
