MANNY AND HIS Cree were absolutely the best! I will be using them again for all future projects that I may need in the future and recommend them 100%. They’re professional and always kept me up to date on the work being done.

MJ Castano did a great job on my stoop and walkway. He was professional, courteous, and efficient. He used high-quality materials and delivered the project on time and on budget. The new stoop and walkway look amazing. I highly recommend him.

In my last review, I stated that I didn't hire MJCastano but would if needed. Well, I did and am thrilled with the results. All work was expertly completed with care and attention to detail. Manny is an "old-school" craftsman performing expert work and quality service. Nicely done!

Although we didn't have a need to hire MJ Castano for this project based on his own recommendation, the service was prompt, friendly and professional. The inspection was done and it was determined that work was not needed at this time. It's obvious that this contractor has many years of experience and is honest and ethical. If needed, I would have hired Mr. Castano.

I am so happy to have found Manny! He’s extremely knowledgeable and experienced working with stone and has an eye for what looks good as well as what is structurally secure and correct. The work came out beautifully and will last for years to come. He’s very professional and even gave me advice on other house maintenance issues!
Description of Work: Front of house bluestone walkway completely reset and Belgian block border also completely reset. Also fixed and smoothed out deep cracks in my concrete garage floor.

MJ Castano is a talented mason. I am so happy with the work he did for us. We will enjoy the steps and walkway for many years to come. The work was done impeccably. He finished on time and on budget and created exactly what I wanted. I highly recommend him for any stonework you have. Would hire him again and would recommend him to anyone in Westchester County.

MJ Castano is a consummate professional. I could not be happier with my new front steps and walkway! He finished the job on time and on budget. In fact, he even put in a drainage pipe to help redirect storm water away from the steps so they last for years to come. I would hire Manny for all of my masonry projects without hesitation and recommend him to anyone needing this type of work. His estimate was competitive with others and he was a real pleasure to work with. Look no further. This is your guy.

Work was done well and what was done looks good. The spacing between the blocks is less than the original which looks better but this resulted in the need for more blocks. I purchased additional blocks so that they could complete the border on one side but the other side is borderless. The job was supposed to have the walkway look the same once completed. Also, the material used in between the blocks has come out and popped up in places. I texted a couple of times to have it fixed but to no avail

Response from Mjcastano Contracting Corp
Unfortunitly this client has mistaken me for another contractor. I have never done work at this address. I stand by all the work we do and return all phone calls and emails. If this client would like to get in touch with me my name is Manny and my number is 914-736-1065

Manny was terrific - a real standout. He completed each job beautifully, on time, and at a very reasonable cost. He diagnosed the particulars of what we needed and delivered 100%. He explained what he was doing and why, and he was a total pleasure to have around. After the first job, we needed a path to be reset. Manny made room in his schedule and again delivered an outstanding job at a very good price. Thank you, Manny!
Description of Work: We needed a chimney flue repaired and a wall repaired and re-plastered. We had a second job done too - relevelling a pathway. We are now considering a patio, and if we do it we'll call Manny.

Great. There was some things which became obvious once the work stated, for example the old patio and the new addition had been poorly attached. Manuel fixed that as well as the poor drainage in front of the porch and brought it all up to code
Description of Work: We had our patio repointed and our front porch updated. Manuel was able to save a lot of the existing tiles and also found good matches for those which needed replacing

Went fantastic, Manny and his crew were always on time neat and cleaned up everyday. I have used this contractor before and will definitely use again. He informs you the right way to get your project done and tells you why it has to be that way. He checks with you if there are any questions . Extremely meticulous on how his job turns out. Check out the pictures below to see how beautiful my walkway and stoop look.

MJ Castano Contracting did an superb job on the wall in my driveway. They are trustworthy and professional. They explained the correct way to do the repair was to install wire for reinforcement because the block was not in good condition. Very satisfied with the repair and the price was fair. I would definitely recommend this company to perform any masonry work!

Manny was fantastic! I had my chimney repaired 2 and a half years prior and got ripped off. So when I was able to afford to repair it again I got 3 estimates all for $2500 dollars! They all assured me that the cracking of the stucco will not happen again. A friend of mine said she had a great mason and gave me Manny's number. So I called, enjoyed speaking with him and looking forward to his estimate. Well to my surprise his estimate was $2000 dollars more then the other 3! I liked him so much I called and asked if he could come back and discuss the job. I came straight out and said I really like you can you explain why your $2000 higher then 3 other estimates? He said of course, do you have a ladder. So I gave him the ladder and he climbed to the top. He knocked on the chimney and said do you hear this and I replied yep sounds hollow. He climbed down the chimney and while coming down he kept knocking on the chimney and said keep listening, finally the hollow sound stopped. I said so what does that mean? He replied I am going to knock the chimney down 10 feet and rebuild it and then stucco the whole chimney. The other guys are going to do what the first guy did, chip off the stucco and re stucco it and in 6 months it will happen again. Needless to say Manny rebuilt my chimney and 5 years later still beautiful! It pays to ask why if someone is higher and not to always go with the less expensive contractor. Manny and his crew were early everyday for work and stayed late to finish the job on the promised date. I will definitely use this provider again!
