We were selling home and had two other contractors on the roof. Mirelli was flexible enough to work with the other contractors and timely to complete the project on time. The only issue I had was with their billing department. Although I paid immediately, we were sent a request to pay 2 weeks later. I recommend this firm

Thank you for the nice review. It was great working with you. We normally don't take payment before the billing cycle the following week. We took your payment early as a courtesy for your closing and sent out the documentation you needed. Once the billing came to me, I mistakenly sent out the bill. Sorry about that. Thank you for taking the time to post a review for us. It is much appreciated!

They are a little slow to respond to things. They need to do what they said they were going to do, they were supposed to water proof the job on the chimney.

BEWARE if you are using this company to bid on work. Prices are unrealistic.
Description of Work: BUYER BEWARE. I hate giving negative feedback, but have to let people know about the pricing of this company. We were trying to sell our house and they bid $19,500 for the work and said that was the minimum that needed to be done. That caused the deal to fall through. I ended up having the work done for $1300 (1/15th the price!) by another contractor rated A on Angie's list: Taylor's tuckpointing. It is one thing to charge a high price for quality/insured work. It is another thing to be twice as high as the next highest bid and fifteen times higher than what it cost to fix everything in the inspection report. This bid actually cost us the sale of our house as it scared away a first time home buyer. Fortunately we were able to sell it to someone else a few months later after having $1300 of work done.

Response from MIRELLI TUCKPOINTING LLC
Obviously the scope of work on the other bid was not the same as ours. I came out three different times because you wanted us to bid less work than was needed, but I could not minimize the work. The entire two story right wall needed to be tuckpointed solid, not just fill some holes. We would be the ones responsible when the new buyers work doesn't hold up and we would then be re-doing the job at our cost under warranty. You should post the inspection report. You also said in an email when you were first requesting a bid that you didn't want to spend more than $1,500.00. You were already setting the price, which was not realistic for the work needed. There is no way our company could do a quality job that we could warranty and put our name on at that price. We priced what work was NEEDED. Since I was not willing to do, or warranty a job that was not done properly or to my standards, then I guess you feel I deserve an "F" on Angie's List. It also would not be fair to the buyer for me to issue a bid for less work than is really needed. I would rather have an "F" than not do the job correctly. Prices will vary when it comes to a one man company vs. an established company that is insured, pays taxes, has seasoned employees, etc. I don't know how we cost you the sale of your house when you could have simply not used our bid.

First, my phone call was returned the same day. Second, the owner scheduled and came out to give me a quote within 2-3 days. Third, the work was scheduled quickly and the two-man team who came to do the work were pleasant, efficient and professional. They moved and replaced the chair and planters I had on the porch and were glad to answer all my questions about the work involved, time frame for completion, etc.

Excellent. The company promptly called me back and scheduled the work. The workers were very efficient and did an excellent job. I'd definitely give them a thumbs up in every way. One word to folks doing this...it generates a ton of dust, so you might want to warn your neighbors and remove any items nearby (they DO clean up afterwards, but still it's a lot of dust!)
Description of Work: I had the chimney tuckpointed above the roof and spotpointed below as well as repair/replace of the cement cap.

It looks fantastic! There was about a 6-8 week delay, but the company was very good about providing updates on when they could get out to do the work, and I felt they worked hard to fit me in so that the roof could get done in time. It was worth the wait for quality work. Staff was pleasant and clean up was done well.

Several workers came out to take care of numerous issues with my brick work and chimney. They were professional, even throwing down drop cloths to contain the mess. They matched mortar color and brick color very well. When they finished, they even hosed down the work area and my house (there was substantial dust from grinding out old mortar and brick.) They finished the job in one day, and it looks GREAT! My neighbor came over, and I gave him the tour. He also needs work, and he liked the job as well. While I initially thought the bid was a little high, I have seen the work neighbors had done by different (less expensive) companies, and their work was shoddy. Mirelli was recommended to me by a friend, and I read other Angie's List reviews and BBB reviews. I am so glad I went with Mirelli. It's really beautiful work. The coupon did help with such a large job. I will use Mirelli again.

I called for an estimate on tuckpointing. John Mirelli came out, and I received an estimate the next day. They tuckpointed one end of house and repaired a settlement crack in the bricks. Also added some weep holes. They were professional, courteous and did a great job. Would definitely recommend them to others.

My husband called their office to set up an appointment for an estimate concerning some masonry repair work and a front steps rebuild. He was told by the receptionist of this 25-year old masonry contractor that she wasn't sure if Granite City (right across the river from St. Louis) was in their service area and that she would have to check with Mr. Mirelli to verify. After taking my husband's details, she stated they would contact him to let him know. My husband, having some experience with contractors and their gerrymandered service areas and some contractors predilections for not responding to requests for estimates in areas they would prefer not to work in,, asked for an response from the company within 48 hours so we could continue our search for another contractor. He was assured he would be contacted by the next business day and would not "be left hanging". Needless to say we did not hear from the Mirellis and were indeed "left hanging."

I received a notification from Angie's List that our company had a new review. I am very surprised because I have already left a message on the phone number provided stating that John said he does not service Illinois. I even provided a referral for you. Illinois is not one of the areas listed on Angie's List that we serve. I hope you received my message and will reconsider this review. Thank you and best of luck with your project! Cindy Mirelli

They came out while I was away at a convention. In fact, they called to set things up while I was at the convention. I explained that the gate to the back yard was locked and I would not be able to open it for them if they came while I was away, but that turned out to be no problem. They just used ladders to go over it and did tuckpointing over the whole house wherever it was needed. By the time I got home, they were done and gone and had cleaned everything up beautifully. They did a great job. I was very pleased. The only sign that they had even been there was the slightest bit of red dust in a few places (I had to look hard for it) and the presence of fresh, solid mortar between the bricks. I couldn't have been more pleased. I had only the slightest of complaints regarding their getting back to me whenever I called with questions and to set things up. Before the work was done, I called on a couple of occasions and left messages and it took a second call to get an answer. That's the reason for the "B" rating on responsiveness, but even so, they did respond and, again, I was very pleased with their work. I have been a little slow about posting this review. I nearly forgot to do it, but I rely heavily on reviews by Angie's List members, and I want to do my part as well, so while I had a few minutes this morning, I thought it was time, I also have had six months to gauge how well the tuckpointing has helped to keep moisture to a minimum inside on my plaster walls. I have had a lot of efflorescence from that moisture, but it appears that the work has nearly stopped that as well. Now it's time to get the plaster fixed!

It went very well. The building was in dire need of tuck pointing! The crew showed up in mass and got the job done in three days. They left no mess outside. It was amazing. I would however suggest that they remind the customer to have all windows, etc closed as the resulting dust inside the first floor unit was pretty severe. Now let me say one more amazing thing about Mirelli. I had a structural engineer inspect two brick pillars that supported the back porches and the engineer said they were fine. I asked Mirelli to spot tuck point the pillars. After Mirelli tested the brick pillars I was told that they were not structurally sound. I was very concerned about this so I called the engineering firm again and asked for the original engineer to come out and inspect it again. Well lo and behold this time the structural engineer said the pillars were not safe. The engineer also said that when he was leaving the office to inspect the pillars again he asked a seasoned co-worker what he thought and the response was "If Mirelli says the pillars aren't safe then they aren't safe." If it had not been for the expertise and high ethics of John Mirelli I would have proceeded with the false belief that the porches were safe. Someone could have been severely hurt using those porches or God forbid worse! I am profoundly grateful to the Mirelli crew and John Mirelli for keeping my family safe. Thank you. Thank you. With gratitude, Michelle

I received a prompt & professional bid within a week of contacting Mirelli Tuck-pointing.They scheduled my job into theirs which took about 3 weeks. I was pleased with their promptness. The day they did the work the two gentlemen that came were very professional, polite, & understanding of my requests. They did an excellent job from start to finish. I thought sure I would have to clean up a mess left behind but to my surprise & pleasure there was none. I would/will have Mirelli back when the need arises & will share my great experience with friends & neighbors. What a great company to do business with. Thank You!
