It went very well. Kevin Byrd and his crew are gems. This is my 5th time using Kevin. At my old house in Tyler, he 1) repaired an existing brick walkway, 2) installed a paver and stone walk way in the backyard 3) re-leveled an existing brick patio, 4) eleviated drainage issues in the backyard. At my house in Palestine, he laid a beautiful brick pathway 5 years ago and more recently laid a brick patio where the old rotten deck used to be He's 4th generation mason and his workmanship/work ethic is excellent. He probably doesn't need this review because he's always overloaded with jobs, but I want to leave it anyway. I rate his work as A++++ and as a bonus, Kevin is awesome to deal with. He's straightforward and friendly. If you get Kevin to do a job for you, you know it will be done well.
Description of Work: I wanted a large brick-on-sand patio laid.

I called and spoke with Kevin directly about the work I needed done. He swung by that day to look at the job and sent me a quote soon after. He and his men showed up at the agreed time, moved all the patio furniture for us, and got to work. They removed the loose bricks and began mixing the new mortar to match the color of what is original to the house. Once fully removed and cleaned, they re-bricked the chimney. After completing this phase of the work, they cleaned everything up exceptionally well and put back all our patio furniture in its place. Since chimney caps have to be custom ordered so that they'll fit properly, once the crew finished setting the brick they ordered the cap and it was delivered and installed the very next day by more of Kevin's crew. Overall, I was super pleased with the work Kevin and his masonry team did. I will definitely hire them again for any and all of my masonry needs.
Description of Work: After a tree limb knocked the brick loose from the mortar on our chimney, we needed the brick reset, a chimney cap added, and some other minor mortar patched from years of wear.

Re-leveling the brick patio went extremely well, and I was pleased with the job he did to install the all new walkway. He was quick and efficient. His price was reasonable. Kevin and his crew got the job done in 2 days. When Kevin had questions about the installation, he asked me before proceeding. He cares about the work he does.
Description of Work: Kevin Byrd is pretty awesome. I've hired him for five different projects over the last 2 years: He repaired a broken/cracked brick on mortar walkway along with my home's brick porch floor. I had him lay a brick-on-sand sidewalk, I had him assess the cracks in the brick facade of a house I was considering for purchase. He re-pointed the brick on my 1933 home, and finally, most recently, I hired Kevin and his crew to level a brick-on-sand patio (trip hazard) and to install a gravel/concrete walkway at my rental house. Obviously, I think he does very good work aside from just being a nice guy. Plus, I recommend him to all of my friends and other contractors when they say they need a mason. (My friend who used him earlier this year also liked his work. He re-pointed the exterior of her brick house.)

Kevin and his crew did an excellent job. It took them about 2 days. I was so very pleased with the outcome. His crew were knowledgeable, worked quickly, answered all my questions, and were very friendly. There was no mess to clean up when the job was done, and they put caution tape up temporarily to keep people from walking on the pathway until it set. I plan to use Keven again to re-point brick on my new/used house and to lay a brick pathway. Great mason!
Description of Work: Kevin and his crew pulled up and re-laid the bricks from a large portion of the walkway in front of my house that were a trip hazard (very unlevel and cracked). He also re-laid some of the brick that made up the front porch floor. When the brick laying was completed and cured, his crew came back and acid-washed the brick to remove any white hazing on top of the brick from the concrete/mortar used.

From the first time I spoke with Kevin I was impressed with his professional attitude. Although the repair at my house wasn't large, he acted as though it were as important as any major job. The repair was done in a very timely manner and the cost was very reasonable. I would definitely use Kevin again and I will recommend to anyone needing any kind of brick work.

They started the job on August 12th. They had to build a scaffold around the chimney and put down tarps to protect the skylights on the roof and to protect the shrubbery adjacent to the house/chimney. There was a fairly large amount of damaged brick that was cut out and replaced with good brick. The workmanship was very good and you cannot even see where the brick was replaced. They were very good about cleaning up and picking up any pieces of brick that had fallen in the lawn. They then had to wait at least 30 days for the mortar to cure and for the brick to be completely dry before applying a sealant to the entire chimney. The job was completed Sept. 23, 2014. I was very pleased with their work and would certainly recommend them.

Description of Work: Kevin removed the top portion of a brick mailbox facade, replaced the old rusted mailbox, and replaced the top portion matching grout color and lines perfectly. I was not at home when the work occurred, but came home to a new box and not a trace anywhere that any work had been done! Usually a dusty and messy job, but everything was spotless! He also waterproofed the new box to prevent rusting again. Thanks Kevin!

My tenant contacted me giving notice that she had driven her new truck through my retaining wall. Needless to say, the Toyota Tundra faired better than the wall. I immediately looked at Angie's List for a referral. Kevin's name was at the top. Called him. Gave him the low down. The next day, Mrs. Byrd emailed me an estimate. I called Kevin and told him the price was very fair, but that my tenant would not have her funds available until the next month. That was no problem. He had me call him as soon as I was ready. After the funds were made available, he informed me it would be about a 2 week wait. Not bad for Tyler. We are having a construction boom right now. Two days later he called notifying me that he would squeeze me in the next morning. He had the forethought to ask me to notify my tenant so that she could have truck out of the way. The following day Kevin text messaged me pictures of the completed work. His wife promptly thereafter returned the required w9 and funds were released. The whole process was seamless. I never had to be on site, never had to meet with Kevin. Everything was handled for me. 100% satisfaction.

Kevin came by and looked at the problem areas. His wife emailed me the free estimate. Kevin and his coworker covered the floor inside my house with plastic before starting the repair inside the chimney. They both worked to remove the old crumbling down firebox. Kevin then replaced the firebox with new brick and mortar while his coworker worked outside to replace the cleanout door. Before Kevin left, he made sure that I knew and understood how long we needed to wait before lighting a fire and that the first several needed to be small. When they left my chimney looked wonderful and "clean' and all of the debris was carried off. I would use and recommend Kevin Byrd for future jobs.
Description of Work: Rebuild the backside of the firebox in my old chimney and replaced the outside cleanout door.

It was a great experience which is rare when it comes to home repair.
Description of Work: Repaired outer brick wall that fell away from my house. Arrived on time and began working and informed me of everything he was going to do and answered all my questions. He arrived with 2 other guys, 1 constantly cleaned up their mess as it was made while Kevin and the other steadily worked. His communication about the repairs needed was excellent and he returned my calls immediately. I will use Kevin again for any masonry work I need.

He cut out the rows on both sides that needed to be redone, cleaned the brick and relaid so the mantle was lowered as specified. He didn't lose any brick and did a great job. He even matched the existing mortar color almost exactly. Sure I found a cheaper bid, but sometimes you get what you pay for. Next I'm thinking outdoor fireplace.
Description of Work: I have a double-sided fireplace and I needed the brick mantles lowered by 3 rows on both sides so as to give more room to hang large LCD TV's on both sides. Also, I didn't have any extra brick so he needed to salvage EVERY brick.
