Mr. Rother and I met the day before and discussed work to be completed and the cost. He and his son came the next morning and finished up everything before it was dark. Both gentleman were professional and offered plenty of discussion about the work to be completed making me feel very comfortable with the work to be done on my house. He even offered me a discount after examining the chimney while doing the work (damage was not a bad as expected). I appreciated his honesty. I would recommend Rother Masonry to other friends and family.

The Rother Masonry Family Team - Paul and Patrick do a fabulous job in everything they do. I have used them on three projects since 2008. They do first class work. They are fair and honest in all their dealings. They really practice safe procedures in all their projects.The Work Area is returned to better than original state. I will use them for all my masonry jobs in the future. I called them in to do the latest job and they were able to do what I needed in the same week. The temperature is falling in Northeastern Pennsylvania and I need my coal stove on.
Description of Work: Replaced masonry Chimney Sill and repaired Coal Burning Chimney. Repaired and resealed Second Wood Burning Chimney.

They came when they said they would. Worked efficiently and professionally. Cleaned up the area at the end of each day that they were here. Pointed out other issues and included a fix without raising the quoted price. Very nice to work with.

He showed up when he said he would, called back in the time frame given and started the job on the day he said he would. He told me why the stucco cracked and solved the water problem caused by the improper siding installation. The job was done right and he cleaned up every bit of concrete left behind. The house looks great and this should solve the moisture problem in my garage.

Paul called me back the same day I called him. Came out the next morning and gave a quote. Really nice and polite guy. Years of experience and knowledge. My job was relatively small and I realize it would take a couple weeks until Paul could fit me into his schedule. He explained his schedule and did not take a partial payment until he started the job. Not only did he repair the porch but explained why it fell apart and what actions he would take to prevent future issues. The bottom flagstone had to be replace and Paul was able to match it with the other steps. I feel the price was more than fair for the the service and workmanship provided. I would not hesitate to recommend Paul to a friend
Description of Work: Repair front porch. Bottom step was crumbling.

Following the bidding process, Paul notified us as to when he would start the job and that he would be needing water and electric hookups. He arrived early every morning and would not start until after 8:00 a.m. as he was concerned he might wake up the neighbors. He worked carefully and cleaned up at the end of each day. The job took 4 and 1/2 days. His work was excellent and when he was finished his work looked better than the original work!
Description of Work: He removed old concrete caps, formed and poured new concrete caps on an existing brick wall. He fixed the mortar between bricks on the side of the porch and filled in a crack on the concrete porch landing. Also, he removed all job debris.

He came a few times to give estimates and review the work area. Because of freezing temps he couldn't do the work for a few months after he gave me the estimate but he was responsive and showed up each time he told me he would. He did the work he said he would.

Inside he patched cracks in the fireplace stone work both outside and inside, and and cleaned up mold/mildew growth from the excessive moisture that had been leeching in.
