Masonman

Spoke to him on the phone for a quote a while back ago. He was incredibly rude.

George did some stone work on the front of my house that was old and out dated. Now with the stone he picked and his great craftsmanship the front of my house looks fantastic. Thank you George.

I asked George to come and look at our chimney, which needed repointing and for the cap to be replaced. While he was here, I pointed out some other repointing, decayed brick and mortar cracks around the outside of my house that needed repairs. He quoted us for those, plus a total chimney rebuild. He came out and did the mortar work first, but after we saw the finished results, we told him that we would not be using him for the chimney.We were very upset. The pictures tell the story, but the long and short of it is that our completely grey flagstone walkway now has blotches of brown mortar in it. The brown mortar was also used to repoint some brickwork on the house (patching grey mortar), as well as patch some of the bricks (which are red, not brown). When it was first done I thought it was probably just a matter of waiting for the mortar to dry and then the colour would match, but that was not the case. Basically everything that was repaired now screams out ‘REPAIRED!!!’. We told him that we were very unhappy with the work, but there was no offer to do anything about it. I’m going to have to grind many of the repairs out and do them again myself.

I called George concerning some brick spalling which had occurred on my mother's home in Burlington, as well as to ask him about mortor deterioration on her front steps. George promptly went to my mother's house, inspected both areas of concern and phoned me back immediately with his report. Now I was expecting a work estimate of somewhere between one to two thousand dollars. You can imagine my surprise when he told me that the spalling was quite slight and required no work on his part. As for the motor issue, he explained that, in Ontario's climate, mortor is not recommended to fill gaps between hardscape pavers. Rather, polymeric sand (invented by Techniseal) is the preferred material, and I should hire a hardscaping company if I wanted to improve the appearance of the front steps. Otherwise, they too could be left as is.It is seldom that one encounters such frankness and honesty from a business whose interests are not served by declining work deemed to be unnecessary. George took the time to inspect my mother's house, call me with a report, and then went away with nothing to show for it. In my brief contact with George I found him to be forthright, upright and diligent. He seems to me to be the kind of guy I would want working on my property should the need ever arise. Thanks George for your advice!

Great people to deal with made the whole process of getting the old brick on my house updated to a beautiful stone. I am so happy with how my house looks from the curb now. You can definitely trust and be confident that you will get quality trustworthy work from Mason man

I contacted George to fix the bricks at the front of my house as they had pulled out of line because of a bent garage door frame. I sent George numerous pictures showing him the issue and explaining that the work needed to be done prior to a new garage door frame being installed next week. What I got was not of reasonable quality and the job was not completed properly. They filled the crack without realigning the bricks which makes it now impossible to install a straight garage door frame. If you are looking for professionalism I suggest another mason, he was less then helpful when I called to explain my dissatisfaction. He claimed I was at fault for not asking the proper questions and that my house was not worth the investment to repair and he then hung up on me.

The sill outside my patio door had broken away pulling some brickwork with it. I had found the Mason Man via Google and gave George a call. He was very prompt in assessing the damage and letting me know that it was no problem to fix. George and his helper Patrick arrived on the agreed day and promptly and professionally completed the work. They were respectful to my property, cleaning up thoroughly on completion. The work performed was thorough and professional. George also suggested how the problem can be prevented in future. All in all a job well done.

The Mason Man just recently has done two jobs at our place within the last two months. Both jobs were done to 100% satisfaction and very professional. Workmanship is beyond what we expected and they are polite and courteous. The site was cleaned up each day and we would highly recommend them to anyone!
