Jake was very responsive, down-to-earth and reasonable with his prices. He showed up on time, worked with me extensively with different options and seemed to have my best interests in mind. Gave me several tips to save money, many of which cost him work but put a dollar back into my pocket. I referred him twice, both clients were extremely satisfied with his work.
Description of Work: Supplied estimates for tuckpointing the entire house, bricking in some doors, bricklaying a garage and cutting a hole in the fireplace for a double-sided unit

Description of Work: Tuckpointed entire front of house. Jake had by far the best price of several estimates and does great work. He is very passionate about what he does. Sometimes difficult to get a hold of due to his schedule, but if you aren't in a hurry he is worth the wait. Would definitely use again for future masonry needs

We highly recommend Atek Tuckpointing! We have used them for 3 large jobs on our home over the last 5 years and have been pleased each time with the quality of work, service, and price. Atek is a small company and Jake (owner) takes pride in his work, his small crew, and ensuring your satisfaction. He is patient in answering questions (we always have a lot of them), he is quick to address and resolve any concerns/questions during the project that you bring up, and a job is never complete unless it meets his standard of quality. When we initially hired Atek, we had no clue what tuckpointing was or anything about the process. We had just bought our first brick home and knew it needed some attention. It is a 2-story, full brick house. After interviewing 9 tuckpointing companies, we chose Atek because of their approach, references, and quote (not high, not low, but very reasonable). Please see below for each of the projects they have completed for us. We will continue to work with Atek in the future and absolutely recommend them!
Description of Work: We have used Atek for 3 large projects on our 2-story, full brick home over the last 5 years: Project 1: Tuckpoint entire front of house and historically clean the brick, tuckpoint parapet walls around the house, spot-point back of house. We were not planning to originally clean the front of the house, but after talking with Jake, we were convinced. There is not a day that goes by that we regret that decision. It was an incredible transformation - we thought our bricks were a really really dark red/brown. They turned out to be beautiful array of colors. We love looking at the front of our house. We are also super picky and have extremely high standards. The tuckpointing is precise, clean, and it looks great. Project 2: Tuckpoint the inside of the basement walls. We have a boulder/masonry/rock foundation in our basement. Our basement is dry, but we were getting moisture coming through the walls. We had Jake and his team come in, grind out all the old mortar (which was practically crumbling in places), re-mortar and then apply 2 coats of drylock to doubly ensure moisture would stay out. It looked awesome when they were done! It has been 2 years and everything is still great! Project 3: Tuckpoint West side of house, tuckpoint foundation around entire house, apply stone facade on front foundation. Jake suggested a while back that we consider applying a stone facade to the foundation on the front of the house. We were unsure at first, but are incredibly happy with the outcome! It looks awesome!
