Mike was easy to deal with and very responsive. I had a furniture delivery scheduled for the same time he was fixing the walk. He made sure his crew was done with the part the delivery man had to walk on. Work was completed on time and to specifications. Craftsmanship was excellent.

Mike came out promptly as promised. My initial thought was a Paver's stone patio with a certain budget in mind. Mike, being the expert that his is, took the necessary time to educate me on the various options. He gave me estimates on both brick and concrete patio of 440 SQ feet very quickly. When my wife and I agreed on the concrete patio, he and his team were able to schedule it much more quickly than I expected and did it on time and in budget. The patio looks great and has made my backyard usable. At the end of the day, Mike made it incredibly easy to do business with Capital Masonry. He had a great manner and used plain language to tell me exactly what I needed to make the right decision. Going with Mike and Capital Masonry was a no brainer.
Description of Work: When I bought my house, the backyard was a swamp. Just mud and grass. I needed usable patio space.

I got estimates from three companies, and Mike Cadle's of Capital Masonry was very fair -- not the highest and not the lowest. I chose Capital Masonry because of their excellent reviews on our neighborhood NextDoor and on Angie's List. Three masonry workers began work on a Monday and completed the job by Friday of the same week. I could see them working, and they worked very hard from 8:30 to 5 each day, sometimes longer. No laying about. The resulting walls are absolutely beautiful and my yard was left clean.
Description of Work: Demolish and haul existing wooden retaining wall that was failing. Replace this wall with cinder block wall with concrete footing. Install new Fieldstone veneer over all 3 cinder block walls in back yard. Cap all walls with flagstones. Also, demolish small cinder block wall in side yard, regrade area and install fresh sod.

The response from the owner was quick, professional and thoughtful. We were able to schedule an on-site visit during our first contact. The owner of the company came out personally to provide the estimate, which was fair and detailed. Scheduling the repair was easy and the work done was exceptional. I would work with this company again.

The owner of Capital Masonry, Mike Cadle, responded timely to our request for repair work needed to several exterior hardscape areas of our 1950 brick ranch home. We had asked each contractor to submit suggestions / bids that would keep with the existing hardscape "look" and also maintain the quality and longevity of the areas. Mr. Cadle arrived on time and spent a good amount of time walking our property, making suggestions on the best approach to repairing damaged and deteriorating areas of the hardscape to stay within our budget without sacrificing quality or aesthetics. We had had others that only "encouraged" us to completely demolish the areas needing repair and rebuild for tens of thousands of dollars. Others submitted bids to just basically add mortar where needed. While Mr. Cadle's bid was not the least expensive, it was comprehensive, reasonable, timely and aligned most closely with our desire to keep with existing aesthetics and still assure the areas would last another 20 years or more. Mr. Cadle willingly and patiently came out several more times to address other questions we had and make more suggestions. Each of his detailed written estimates were easy to understand and delivered with 24 hrs. The cost of and the date to begin the work was agreed upon, and Mr. Cadle and his team showed up exactly when he said they would for all 3 days it took to complete the job. The crew showed up 8:30a and worked constantly and diligently until 6:30p the first two (and I might add, very hot) days. We had to "force" them to take a break for lunch. The completed the job early afternoon of the 3rd day. Each member of the crew was polite, professional, and conscientious with respect to their work and the cleanliness of the job site. First, they pressure washed all of the areas to be repaired, which made a huge difference in the aesthetics before the work even started. They paid special attention to how the flagstone on the rear patio was laid so that drainage would not be an issue. They worked hard to protect, to the best of their ability, existing landscape to minimize damage. After the work was completed, they pressure washed everything again and - WOW - it looked like we had a brand new walkway, flagstone patio, and stairs in the front and rear of our property! Mr. Cadle called the day after the work was completed to arrange a time that he could meet with us to walk the areas and ensure we were completely satisfied or address any concerns. Everything turned out much better than we had actually anticipated and we are very, very pleased. He did not ask for any money or payment until after the work was completed and we were completely satisfied. I've included before and after pictures of the areas where the work was done. We would not hesitate to and will most certainly call Mr. Cadle / Capital Masonry for all future hardscape projects. Highly, highly recommend this excellent company.
Description of Work: On brick steps, walkway, and wall: removed and replaced deteriorating mortar joints and bricks were needed; removed and hauled wood handicap ramp rear of house and reconstructed brick wall to original elevation using matching brick; extended flagstone patio area rear of house; repaired exterior rear brick/flagstone stairs; pulled up and relaid small brick border that had separated from 2nd rear brick patio area. Removed / replaced several cracked flagstone in rear walkway leading to brick patio area.

Mike visited our home several times to understand our project. He listened to our ideas, made great suggestions for the design and provided quotations promptly even though we made several scope changes prior to agreeing to the contract. Mike executed a beautiful project. Mike used the same crew that did our front patio and we could not be more pleased with the result. His crew leader (Rene) is a true craftsman and my wife and I could not be more pleased with their work. Rene and his team were onsite early and extremely professional. The work site was kept neat and orderly. I highly recommend using Capital Masonry!
Description of Work: Three years ago we hired Capital Masonry to add flagstone to our front porch and add a flagstone entrance patio. We interviewed numerous contractors and felt most comfortable with Mike Cadle, owner of Capital Masonry. They are not the least expensive, however, their work is exceptional. This year we contracted once again with Capital to construct a flagstone patio with two sitting walls from our walkout basement into our backyard.

Capital Masonry did an excellent job in rebuilding a planter adjacent our front steps as well as repairing, cleaning and repointing the brick entrance to our home. Since a close match to the existing brick on the planter could not be found, his crew removed the old mortar in order to reuse a lot of the brick. They were also able to closely match the existing brick on the sidewalk. Mike Cadle, the owner, was very responsive to our request for an estimate and questions that we had about the job. The work was professionally completed on time and with no surprises.

Mr. Cadle, the owner, quickly identified the problem, proposed a solution and gave me an estimate the same day. He also moved the job up to a high priority because of the rainy forecast, and the work was done very quickly, tested and completed within a few days. I actually hired Capital Masonry to do two other jobs for me. I greatly appreciate their high level of professionalism, and find both management and workers to be knowledgeable, thorough and friendly. I recommend them without reservation.
Description of Work: Mortar needed to be ground out and replaced in 5-6 rows of brick on the side of my two-story house, built in 1940. The condition of the mortar had deteriorated to the point that rain was leaking - actually it was now pouring - into my house via a beam placed in the external wall when I renovated my kitchen some years ago. I had trouble sporadically, and had replaced the roof, repaired attic gables and tried many other remedies - not knowing what the root problem was.

I was very impressed at the high quality work done by Mike Cadle group, I first got an estimate of work and price (along with several other companies) CAPITAL MASONRY has a good reputation and I used them years ago. The estimate went well, Mike gave me professional advice and gave me an estimate quickly. I added on a few extras, also was able to get A.L. discount coupon. Work completed and looks great, hoping it will last for a number of years.

We had one other company that was going to do bricks and they were going to charge us $12,000. This company offered us River Rocks for $6000. My wife wanted that so that's what we went with. It was half as much as the first estimate we had so I would say an A (for price). It was different product and they did it in 2 days for half the price.

Not only did his team show up incredibly professionally equipped...they were kind and prepared for work. The team was also honest, to the point where I, as the homeowner, left the area for over 8 hours, did not lock the doors (because they were working in the garage, and everyone needs to use a bathroom!?) and returned to pre-locked doors and an immaculate home as I left it. I had tools galore standing out, and like I suspected there was not only nothing missing...I could not tell if they were even in the building. I would recommend without a doubt. Mike is great, along with his crew...honestly the most professional masons I have dealt with ever!

Ms. [Member Name Removed], I'm very sorry that we were unable to meet your expectations. Repairs to existing concrete cannot be as precise or seamless as new concrete work. This repair was offered due to your limited budget, replacement was recommended. It was completed by a professional cement finisher with 20 years of experience. We have attempted to satisfy your concerns multiple times. We have also offered to remove our repair work but you have declined. Please inform me if there is anything else I can do to help. Regards, Mike Cadle Capital Masonry

During the air con installation, the H/AC company discovered they couldn't remove the stones after all -- Capital Masonry came to the rescue, sending someone within an hour (!!) to solve the problem. Then Capital Masonry came back (as originally contracted) to put things back in order. I couldn't be more pleased.
Description of Work: I needed stone repair after an new air conditioner was installed.
I'd contracted with Capital Masonry two years ago to install a flagstone walkway, and was most impressed with Mike Cadle's expertise and that of his crew. I didn't even bother calling anyone else when I decided to do the remaining masonry work. The crew began with the brick work, and the match that they achieved is so perfect that it's impossible to tell the new from the old--no mean feat when it comes to antique bricks. they were able to salvage many of the old bricks in the original retaining wall to use in the new one, which directly abuts the brick foundation wall in the carport. Again, it's impossible to tell where the old stops and the new begins. The aggregate concrete driveway is beautiful, and quite thick. The crew has worked together for years, and it shows: they're very organized and coordinated, highly efficient and meticulous in their craftsmanship. They even returned after the job was completed because they wanted to clean the driveway again.

Went very well with excellent result. Mike Cadle and 2 man crew were very professional and did a great job. Mike had originally under estimated the square feet of the job and upon completion, didn't request to be paid for the additional work. Since we were very pleased with the work we offered and paid for the additional flag stone needed. We defintely would use Capital Masonary and highly recommend them.
Description of Work: Relevel and install Sunset Buff flagstone over existing concrete front stoop, walkway and side patio.
I cannot say enough about how great our experience was with Mike Cadle and his crew. First, Mike was the only mason we contacted who suggested a much lower cost option to repair the chimney and his pricing was fair for the entire project. Then the craftsmanship of his crew is outstanding. The walkway, porch, and wall are stunning and transform the front of the house. They were professional and worked relatively quickly. Finally, there was a misunderstanding regarding the project that was entirely at my end, but Mike was patient and professional in explaining it to me. I would highly recommend Capital Masonry for any masonry project.
