Mr. Mirelli came by the day after we called him. He was extremely professional and gave us a fair bid. We only chose another contractor because he had done work with us in the past but will definitely consider Mr. Mirelli for jobs in the future.

John and his crew were punctual, friendly, thorough and very professional. Everything was done as promised. They even threw in a free waterproofing of one of my other chimneys. This is very rare in the field of tuck pointing.

Excellent service from the original phone call through the completion of the job. Calls returned promptly. Estimate performed in a timely fashion. I had to have the repairs done ASAP and they worked me into their schedule. When the job took less time than they anticipated, they did some additional needed repairs and tuckpointing at no additional charge. Crew was very pleasant and unusually neat. Clean up was excellent and job looks great. Based on my experience, my realtor has added Mirelli Tuckpointing to his list of masons.
Description of Work: Repaired brick and stone on inside of old coal cellar. Also did a small amount of spot tuckpointing on exterior of house.

They were very professional. They were on time and worked diligently all day. They did their best to clean up their work, but this is a very messy job! I was very nervous about how much grit and sand would get inside my house, and somehow they managed to keep it to a minimum. I am very pleased with the quality of the work they did. It looks fantastic.
Description of Work: We hired Mirelli Tuckpointing repair the brick work in various spots all around our house. They worked on the garage area, the chimney area (both inside and out) and in other areas needing tuckpointing everywhere around the house.

The owner, John Mirelli, was very nice & responsive. They gave a bid the day after I called and then completed the job the day after I decided to go with them. They did a good job and cleaned up afterwards. I only came home to find a sign in my front yard and a clean, well tuckpointed front porch. This was a good experience.
Description of Work: Full re-tuckpointing job on my front porch. They quoted for spot tuckpointing, but when they came to do the work, they decided it was best to fully redo, and they honored original price. They were considerably higher than the other bids I received, but their record (both on BBB and Angie's) was impeccable. They're a union, fully insured, and no deposit is required upfront. I own a 80 year old house and expect to use them again for the walls of my house.

Response from MIRELLI TUCKPOINTING LLC
WE ARE VERY PLEASED TO HEAR THAT YOU ARE HAPPY WITH OUR WORK! WE GAVE YOU A BID TO DO THE SPOTPOINTING, BUT ALSO TO RELAY ABOUT 25 BRICKS THAT WERE BULDGING. MAYBE THAT WAS SOME OF THE PRICE DIFFERENCE. WE ALSO HAVE FOUND THAT SOME COMPANIES DO NOT CARRY INSURANCE OR PAY THE TAXES, SO THEY CAN PRICE THEIR WORK CHEAPER. WE ARE PRICE COMPETATIVE WITH OTHER LEGITIMATE COMPANIES. SORRY FOR THE MISCOMMUNICATION, BUT WE ARE A NON-UNION COMPANY. WE HAVE LONG TIME EMPLOYEES WHO WE PAY COMPARABLE TO UNION WAGES. WE LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING FOR YOU AGAIN IN THE FUTURE! SINCERELY, JOHN MIRELLI

This job was a textbook example of exceptional customer service. I received a written quote within 3 days of my first call, and after accepting the contract, the work was scheduled and completed within 48 hours. The owner did the work himself, and the workmanship appears excellent. I'm sure there are other tuckpointers that cost less, but the overall experience, e.g., customer service & quality, makes these guys a great value.
Description of Work: Tuckpointed and repaired two chimneys that were in desperate shape.

Worker arrived on time, and did an excellent job of repairing the masonry, so that it looks much better aesthetically. He took away the concrete which had fallen out, and we are very satisfied with the company.
Description of Work: Repaired/replaced an old masonry repair to area where a retaining wall met the back of our brick building. This had previously been poorly repaired, and eventually the concrete just fell out.

My house is 40 years old with a courtyard wall. The chimney and the courtyard wall were especially full of loose mortar. John Mirelli came the day after I called and gave me a reasonable estimate. His crew came the next working day after I agreed to the work. The work was excellent and clean up was very neat. John called the next day to ask if all the work was satisfactory because I was at work when they did the work. I recommended him to my neighbor and she was equally satisfied.
Description of Work: Removed loose mortar from entire house and chimney and tuck pointed the same area.

IMPRESSED-PROFESSIONAL-THOROUGH-WELL MANNERED-TIMELY-GREAT CLEAN UP-PERFECT CAULK & MORTAR COLOR MATCH. A bad experience with a previous contractor brought me to Angie's List and Mirelli Tuckpointing. John provided a thorough and reasonably priced bid last November and did not require a down payment. (An invoice would be mailed on completion.) As soon as weather permitted, they were on the job. A crew of 2 plus a supervisor arrived early and stayed until completed. They were prompt in returning to do 2 overlooked areas. I was impressed when I asked about some additional (not bid) areas ''inside'' in the basement. John said they would be taken care of without additional cost and they were. My house looks like new. The mortar was matched so well that you can't even tell where the settlement cracks were. They did a marvelous job cleaning up.
Description of Work: Caulked all windows, doors and patio area, opened joints and settlement cracks from around the house and spot pointed same. Patched spalding and cracked cement on the foundation walls and the back door steps.

We recently converted a gas fireplace back to a wood burning fireplace. At the time we had a new fireplace lock-top damper installed by another company. After the new damper was installed and we began to use our fireplace, we noticed that our chimney was very wet on the inside after a rain. After having the mortar work done there is still a tiny bit of moisture after a rain, but I am waiting on them to seal it in the next few weeks. The owner did the estimate and was very pleasant. The actual workers were very courteous and careful. They did a great job of cleanup. I would hire them again.
Description of Work: Removed loose & deteriorated mortar joints from stone chimney with diamond grinder. Spot point those areas. Match mortar as close as possible. Repaired the cap, sealed the flashing & cleanup work. Sealed chimney with siloxine silicone sealer 30 days later.

I FOUND WORKING WITH MIRELLI TUCKPOINTING TO BE A PLEASANT EXPERIENCE. I RECEIVED A QUICK ESTIMATE, AND A BID COMPARABLE TO 2 OTHER COMPANIES. ONCE I DECIDED TO GO WITH MIRELLI, THEY MADE AN APPOINTMENT, AND ARRIVED ON TIME, AND FINISHED QUICKLY. THEY LEFT THE WORK AREA NEAT, AND CLEAN, AND EVEN PATCHED A COUPLE SPOTS THAT I DIDN'T ASK THEM TO DO.
Description of Work: THEY RE-TUCKPOINTED 6 1/2' X 8 1/2' SECTION OF STONE FOUNDATION INSIDE MY BASEMENT, CAULKED AROUND A DOOR FRAME.
JOHN MIRELLI PERSONALLY VISITED ME ON SITE, REVIEWED THE SITUATION, AND DESCRIBED THE REPAIRS NEEDED. THIS WAS FOLLOWED WITH A BID DETAILING THE WORK TO BE DONE. A SKILLED CREW OF WORKERS PERFORMED WORK IN A COMPETENT AND THOROUGH MANNER WITHIN 2 WEEKS AFTER BID ACCEPTANCE. CREW CLEANED UP ROOF AND SITE TO MY SATISFACTION. EVEN THOUGH MIRELLI'S BID WAS NOT THE LOWEST PRICE, IT WAS THE MOST PROFESSIONAL AND I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO RECOMMEND THE FIRM TO ANYONE ELSE.
Description of Work: REMOVED ALL MORTAR JOINTS IN CHIMNEY ABOVE ROOF LINE WITH DIAMOND BLADE GRINDER. TUCKPOINT WITH WATER-PROOF CEMENT MATCHING EXISTING CEMENT COLOR. PERFORM SAME WORK OF ''SPOT-POINTING'' CHIMNEY AS REQUIRED BELOW ROOF LINE. REPAIR CHIMNEY CAP. ALSO REPLACE BROKEN GROUT IN BASEMENT WHERE STEEL BEAMS MEET CONCRETE WALLS.

Update: We have learned that the work they did was substandard and we must now pay to have it redone. Original Review: THEY DID GOOD WORK [we now understand that this was not true.] HOWEVER, TO BE TRULY PROFESSIONAL AND TOP NOTCH, THEY REALLY NEED TO WORK ON COMMUNICATION AND RELIABILITY. THEY DIDN'T RETURN PHONE CALLS ALL THAT WELL AND TWICE, WHEN HEAT PROHIBITED THEM FROM DOING THE WORK, THEY DIDN'T BOTHER TO CALL TO TELL US THEY WEREN'T COMING AND WHEN THEY WOULD RESCHEDULE. WE HAD TO CALL THEM EACH TIME, EVEN AFTER THEY PROMISED THEY WOULD KEEP IN TOUCH. THAT'S WHY THEY GET ''D: FOR RESPONSIVENESS AND PUNCTUALITY, AND ''C'' FOR PROFESSIONALISM. HAVING SAID THAT, ONCE WE GOT PAST THAT, THE WORK THEY DID APPEARS TO BE WELL DONE AND THE JOB SITE WAS LEFT CLEAN, THUS THE TWO ''A'' RATINGS. [ I have reduced the A ratings to F]
Description of Work: THEY TUCKPOINTED AND REPAIRED OUR BRICK CHIMNEY. Update: We have learned from two tuckpointers (both top-rated by Angie's list) that the work they did was "terrible". We now must spend thousands to do the work again. I am furious.

WE CAME OUT AND DID THE WORK AROUND THE POOL DECKING ASAP, AS REQUESTED BECAUSE THE MEMBER FELT IT COULD BE A HAZARD. WE TOLD THEM WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO DO THE REST OF THE WORK ON A SECOND PROPOSAL THE FOLLOWING WEEK. DUE TO THE RAIN, IT DID TAKE ONE MORE WEEK TO START THE WORK ON THE SECOND PROPOSAL.

THE PRICE WAS RIGHT, BUT THE ESTIMATE HAD 2 AREAS THAT WERE MIXED UP AND WHEN I CALLED TO QUESTION IF THE PRICE WOULD CHANGE ACCORDING TO HOW IT SHOULD BE, I NEVER RECEIVED A PHONE CALL BACK. I CALLED THE OFFICE ONCE EACH WEEK FOR 3 WEEKS TO DISCUSS THE ESTIMATE AND NEVER HEARD BACK FROM THE COMPANY. I STILL HAVE NOT HEARD BACK FROM THIS COMPANY. I SPOKE WITH THE SECRETARY EACH TIME, BUT NEVER RECEIVED A CALL BACK. AFTER 3 WEEKS OF NO RESPONSE, I CHOSE ANOTHER VENDOR TO COMPLETE THE WORK.
