We had an excellent experience with Atlantic Masonry installing our new patio in October. The team was knowledgeable and responsive throughout the entire process. Zine is great and took the time to answer questions and clearly knew his craft. The final result came out even better than we expected! Despite the harsh winter we just had, the patio has held up beautifully and still looks great. We're looking forward to warmer weather so we can start using it regularly. I would absolutely recommend Atlantic Masonry to anyone considering a patio or masonry project. read more

It's now about 10 months since Zine came out to meet me. I reached out to him about 5-6 months ago about when his company can do the job right. He said that he was dealing with a family tragedy. I understood that. Now it is months later and I haven't heard back. I'm cool if he took time but I have had to reach out to him every time to get his crew to come do the job right. I don't think I should be chasing him. I'd be OK if he gave me a date for work but he hasn't. I think I hired him Fall 2024. He started work in Spring 2025. I've posted some new photos of issues. I'm posting ones that are easy to see on camera. There are various places where tapping on the stucco returns a hollow knock. Frustrating. read more

Beautiful work and very professional. My granite steps are perfect. It came out better than I expected. read more

Excellent work! We need to replace our old and aging front brick steps and porch. Zine came by and showed us some wonderful granite opotions. We also had a wrough iron raling that was rusty, but which we wanted to fix up and save. He told us how we could easily fix it up ourselves, which we did, and it come our fabulous for only the cost of some spray paint and sandpaper! He ordered the granite and came by to start the job at the agreed upon date. He and his team dismantled the old porch very quickly and the new porch was installed by the end of the day. It had to settle and allow the mortor to dry for a couple of days before it could be walked on. The porch looks stunning and is a vast improvement over our old one. He returned about a week later (the mortar had to dry and settle completely before drilling to make the holes) and reinstalled the iron railing, which is now solidly in place! I couldn't be happier. He and his office staff kept in touch with us during the process of getting is estimate, choosing the granite we wanted, and scheduling the job, and coming back to reinstall the railing. It's been over three years since he completed the job and it still looks like he just finished it! read more

Short story: Absolutely go with Atlantic Masonry & Tile for all hardscaping needs if you're lucky enough to be in their service area. Quoting and Scheduling: Absolutely wonderful experience in getting a quote and scheduling time to walk through the project. Renée and Zine were wonderful and patient in answering all our questions to get this project started. Renée was very communicative, followed up with us to keep things moving smoothly, and sent us plenty of information that helped us make decisions on the project. They weren't the cheapest quote, but were reasonable and we decided their professionalism, excellent communication, and technical skill made the price well worth it. Those feelings turned out to be correct! Work Completion: Guillermo and the crew were amazing. They worked efficiently, checked in with us where needed, and kept the site tidy. The guys were very friendly and we're very impressed with their work. Zine was incredibly knowledgable as our project touched most of our yard including: a complete overhaul of our front yard, replacement of a collapsing retaining wall in the back yard, finishing off a patio in the back. (Not pictured: Adding a couple of steps in our backyard, clearing overgrowth along the side of our house and laying down stone, and installing dry wells at each corner of the house to reroute gutter rainfall.) Zine was personally onsite nearly daily, and he was able to stop by pretty much immediately whenever we had any questions. He was also very flexible in helping us make design decisions as the project moved along. This project fixed so many different problems we were having, and we're thrilled with the outcome. Looking forward to putting in soil and plants in the spring! Thanks again! read more

Called, left a message and NEVER called back, just move on the the next one. that's people today

Atlantic Masonry & Tile keeps their perfect score streak going! Zine and crew recently finished a driveway & wall rehab project for us and the results are amazing. Of the several contractors we had come and give us estimates/proposals, Zine was the only one who offered some creative ideas and solutions to our unique space. After our initial meeting, we had a few other ideas we wanted to get quotes on and communication with Renée to establish the quotes, sign the contract, and set up the schedule was quick, professional, and friendly. We had to have a tree stump in the work area removed by a stump grinding company and the AM&T team was accommodating and adjusted their schedule to help us demo out the space around the tree stump ahead of the full driveway demo job. As others have mentioned, the communication with Zine and Renée was so easy and professional that we had no concerns about this added layer of complexity since we knew they wouldn't leave us hanging. AM&T excavated the retaining wall and area where our stump used to be, built a new retaining wall to blend in with our existing one, added two sets of granite steps as well as a couple long granite steps leading to our backyard, and put a granite cap on the new wall and the old wall. There was a short, ugly concrete wall that we weren't sure what to do with (in the photos, it's the one under the white fence), but AM&T generously added a stone facade. Now this wall adds beauty not just to our backyard and patio but also to our compost/shed area, which used to feel really junky but that we now jokingly refer to as the "sexy compost" area. AM&T also demo'ed our existing concrete driveway and installed a new driveway of beautiful pavers in a lovely pattern (which they helped us select). The new driveway is re-graded so that rainwater runs to the street, and they added a dry well underneath some of the pavers at the end of the driveway to help with drainage. The team that did the job was professional and efficient. Since we were working from home, we got to watch the daily progress and were impressed with their speed and skill. Several of our neighbors complimented their work as the job was in progress and have come back to comment to us about how beautiful the new space looks. Our previous driveway was an eyesore and wasted space but is now an extension of our backyard patio and highlights the landscape garden that we love. Many thanks to Zine, Renée, and the whole crew at Atlantic Masonry & Tile. We love our new driveway and would not hesitate to recommend you to others. In fact, we're already thinking about what project you can help us tackle next! read more

We recently had our fieldstone retaining wall repointed, as well as having a new driveway done and a couple of smaller fieldstone walls built. Everything from start to finish was amazing with Atlantic Masonry & Tile and we are very happy with the final result. We met with Zine for the estimate in less than a week from our initial contact. We were quite impressed with his professionalism and suggestions for the work we wanted done. We had excellent communication from Renee during the whole process and she answered any questions we had very quickly. Alfredo and the entire crew were great! We hardly knew they were here, they kept the disruptions to a minimum, and worked very hard to get the job done within 5 days. We highly recommend Atlantic Masonry & Tile!! read more

Zine and team did a large job at my home and I couldn't be happier. Replaced two long walkways as well as rebuilt a failing raised patio. From the first visit it was nothing but professionalism and quality. Project was completed several days ahead of schedule and right on budget - I had some changes during the project and the team simply incorporated it into the work - no impact on budget. The guys were fantastic, worked extremely hard and took care of my overall property throughout the entire project. Fantastic craftsmanship and attention to detail. They also spent considerable time each day cleaning up so we didn't feel like we are living in a construction zone. Zine puts the project through a thorough inspection several times and ensures that quality is top notch. Whatever you do, call Zine (and Renee), they will get the job done. Communication, quality, punctuality, and excellence are how I describe this experience. I wish all builders/contractors were like this. read more

Zine and crew did an excellent job on our brick walkway today: 1. The team did quality, exacting work. The brick walkway curved around, and the crew cut curves into brick and granite pavers with the concrete saw. Good craftsmanship and attention to detail. 2. Fast: all done in one day, and on the day that they scheduled weeks ago. 3. Courteous and helpful: I asked them to take a look at our slab granite steps which had started to slope. Zine and crew spent an extra hour and repositioned two steps for us, and didn't charge us. They cleaned up immaculately. One of the crew noticed that our kids got a rocket stuck in a tree while playing outside- he got on the truck, shook the tree, and got the rocket down. 4. Reasonably priced. We quoted this around and they were the best quote. Excellent communication with Renee. read more

Great work done with repair on a chimney. Excellent communication and response times.

Atlantic Masonry recently completed a large project at our house that consisted of 2 large retaining walls (interlocking block and mortared fieldstone), large terraced patio (with two additional smaller fieldstone retaining walls), walkway and french drain. Zine and his team were very responsive communicative, knowledgeable, problem solvers, extremely hard working, and friendly. We could not be happier with the work- it is excellent and we are enjoying our transformed outdoor space! We would give more than 5 stars if that were an option and highly recommend to anyone! read more

Love our new patio! Zine and his crew did an awesome job. My first point of contact was via email back in mid-October. His wife Renee quickly got back to me and I met with Zine a few days later. I got my quotes few days later via email. Originally I had three projects in line, but we went only for the patio. Communication is great prior to the installation, especially when I was selecting what pavers for the patio. Renee answered all my questions. Installation for the patio took a few hours and it look awesome. My husband and I were at work when the job was all done. I highly recommend Atlantic Masonry & Tile. Once we got the money for the other projects, I will definitely call on them again! read more

Superior customer service and expertise. I would not use anyone else for my masonry needs. Our patio turned out better than I could have imagined! read more

Under Testimonials on atlanticmasonry.com, you will find many delighted customers talking about owner Zine's professionalism and artistry/craftmanship as well as the awesome organizational skills and responsiveness of his business manager, Renee. I wholeheartedly agree with these reviews, but also want to share some specific experiences we had in our project (two fieldstone retaining walls, a natural stone patio and set of fieldstone/granite steps). The walls and steps came out perfectly. Our requirements for our patio in particular were especially challenging: we wanted a more natural look, with irregular shaped flagstones laid out in a large, curved footprint. Renee sourced the exact stone we wanted (so hard to find) and Zine designed and directed his excellent team (thank you Alfredo, Theo and crew!) in the creation of an intricate, mosaic-like patio that people tell us is gorgeous (we think so too--like something you would find in Europe). If you are looking for exceptionally fine work, we highly recommend Atlantic Masonry. read more

We highly recommend Atlantic Masonry & Tile for all your stonework or tile needs. We had Zine build a retaining walls for us and loved his work so much that we also hired him to do a concrete walkway with the stairs on the back of the house. Zine is more than a stonemason, he is an artist and works carefully to place each stone where it fits best. He does not hurry and clearly takes pride in his stonework, which reflects meticulous attention to detail. This is the guy for the job, you will not be sorry!" read more

We hired Zine and crew to repoint and clean our brick chimeny and install a chimney cap. They did good work, very clean and looks great. I was all set to go with a chimney cleaning and specialty service and thought to call Zine and Renee to see if Atlantic did chimney work (we were very happy with them when they did our new patio and front walk) and we were happy to find out they could help us! They were also less expensive than quotes we received from our chimney sweep and what a neighbor paid for similar work. read more

Recently completed a project to re-do our front porch and walkway with a combination of granite and pavers. I can't speak highly enough about Zine, Renee, and the team at Atlantic Masonry. They were professional, responsive, listened to our vision, helped us think through ideas, and ultimately delivered in a timeframe that exceeded our expectations. THANK YOU! read more

We hired Atlantic Masonary to replace our front steps, rear steps and front and side walks and cannot say enough about the work that was done. The work performed by Zine and his crew was excellent. They pay attention to detail, take great pride in the work they do, and want make sure the customer is satisfied. Atlantic is very a professional outfit to do business with. They will provide a detailed estimate and contract, obtain permit, arrange timely inspections, and ensure the work conforms to code. But most of all is the outcome of their work is high quality, beautiful to look at, and solid workmanship. My wife and could not be more pleased and would highly recommend Atlantic Masonary. read more

We couldn't be happier to have found Atlantic Masonry & Tile. Zine did an amazing job on our patio. His professionalism and work quality is incomparable. After a bad experience we had with a contractor that didn't take pride in his work and left us with a hack job, Zine came to rescue us!! His work is remarkable, he repaired to perfection all the things that were wrong and made it look beautiful. He is a perfectionist, an artist in masonry and I regret we didn't find him before. Zine gave us a beautiful patio, my kids and I now have a safe and amazing space to play and enjoy thanks to him. We have recommended him to friends and family and will definitely be using him for many more jobs in the future. I must also mention his wife Renee, she is very professional, courteous, knowledgable,and extremely detailed. They were both a pleasure to deal with. read more

Hired Atlantic to put a patio in my backyard. The estimate was on par with other companies but what set them apart was how easy it was to communicate with them before and during the process. They did it all in two days(90 degree heat by the way) and were extremely professional and friendly. The patio came out great. Highly recommend this company. read more

Requested a quote about a month ago, Renee said they would be up the next week to take a look. It's been a month; I sent a follow-up email to see when this would be done this past week, didn't hear anything back. Was putting off contacting others due to a great set of reviews here...moving on. read more

We used Atlantic Masonry for some much needed repairs to our front steps at our home in West Roxbury a few weeks ago. They came out quickly to evaluate the job and give an estimate, then scheduled an appointment for a few days later. The work was excellent, and the price was reasonable. They even made additional repairs at a very low price while they were on site. I would highly recommend them to anyone. read more

Fantastic experience! Zine and his crew just completed our patio, and we couldn't be happier. The work quality is amazing, and they were a pleasure to work with. His wife Renee is wonderful-she kept us informed throughout the whole project and helped us pick out beautiful tile. They showed up when expected, completed the work on time, cleaned up everything, and worked with us to stay within our budget. Just a great experience. read more

Over the past 40 years I have worked with numerous contractors of all types, and the best of them I'd rate 3 stars---if I could give Atlantic Masonry 20 stars in this review I would! I interviewed a number of contractors for my retaining wall project and received so much contradictory and questionable info I was in despair-- until Zine arrived. He listens and communicates so well, made excellent suggestions that enhanced the project, and quoted a great price for a very aesthetically appealing option. He lost no time getting permits, and he and his crew were on time, on schedule every day. They were incredibly hard workers, always pleasant, and neatened things up at the end of each workday. They also took on several painting and carpentry projects that needed doing surrounding the wall completely outside their original scope so that I didn't have to go find another contractor to do them. A shout out must also go to Zine's wife Renee, who took care of everything on the office end so efficiently . The finished retaining walls far exceeded my expectations: beautiful, really first class work. I enthusiastically recommend Atlantic Masonry & Tile-- Zine, you are the best!!! read more

These guys did an amazing job refinishing my flower bed, steps, patio and foundation. It was all old, cracking, and terrible looking, but they made everything brand new. Zine and Renee were great to work with - excellent communicators and friendly. Thanks Renee and Zine! read more

They just finished a big job in my basement-- repointing all of the fieldstone foundation and then putting on a waterproofing product. Zine and his men are amazing!! I am so happy with the work they did-- super professional, great communication, reliable, and honest. They went above and beyond and truly were one of the best companies I've ever worked with. read more

I had Atlantic Masonry redo my entire backyard in brick and blue-stone. Through our the entire process they were friendly, punctual and a total pleasure to work with. The whole team Renee, Zine & Mohammad was great and did the most fantastic job! I cannot recommend them highly enough. read more

Zine and Renee were awesome to work with. Came and gave me a quote, then arranged to be here to do the work and actually turned up and did it on the day they said they would (I know such a rare thing in these parts). Happily accommodated minor changes at my request and the price was really good. They sparged the foundations, repaired a step, re-pointed another stairway and chimney and added a chimney cap. Very happy I chose to use them and am recommending them to my friends. read more

Very smooth process from beginning to end. They do impeccable work and they do everything they can to make the process easy for you. Won't use anyone else for this type of work in the future. read more

We have used Atlantic Masonry and Tile twice. Once in 2016 to repoint our basement, and again this past fall in 2018 to do our driveway and a retaining wall. Zine and Renee are wonderful to work with, and the crew is a very hardworking group that cares about the work they are doing. Whenever an issue arose, Zine is always available to come and ensure everything is up to a high standard of quality. These guys think very creatively about a solution, offer reasonable prices, and they operate as true partners. read more

My husband and I found Atlantic Masonry & Tile online after a search of masons in our area. After meeting with a few, we made the easy decision to hire Zine (principal of the firm) to repair the stone/concrete walkway in front of our house. He and Renee (office manager & wife) were easy to work with and prompt with responses to our inquiries. The work was done within a week of our initial meeting and repaired to look like new. Zine is a craftsman. He spends the required time and goes to great length to lay each stone in the precise spot. His attention to detail and work ethic are clear when you see the end result. On top of being highly skilled as a mason, he is courteous, friendly and arrived on time. When rain delayed him a half day, he was clear in communicating the new timeline to us and followed through as he had indicated. We are very happy with our decision to work with Zine and Atlantic Masonry & Tile. We will certainly call them for any projects we may have in the future and would recommend him to anyone in a heart beat. Thank you Zine and Renee! read more

These folks are knowledgeable, fair and reasonable in their pricing and the work is outstanding! Some of the things you look for in hiring Masons, include good materials, knowledge, experience, no varying from the original plan, staying on budget and a clean working area after they leave. Zine and his crew meet all these 100%. I would highly recommend their work! read more

Zine and his crew did a good job. Thorough and complete. No problems. Good quality hands-on experience workmanship!

Punctual, communicates ahead of time and do a solid job. Zine gave a competitive quote for a repointing job that took two days. His guys are careful and thorough, all we could ask for. read more

Atlantic continues to maintain a perfect 5 on 5 score. That's because Zine and Renee are such thorough professionals and take pride in their work and care deeply about their customers. We recently hired Zine and team to repoint our chimney and also repair the front steps. Renee, the office manager, was outstanding in her communication - prompt, clear and very responsive. Zine was extremely personable in his interaction and very knowledgeable and thoughtful in his work assessment. Also, unless he was right in the middle of a job, Zine picked up all my calls on the first few rings (such a huge plus for the client). Atlantic provided a detailed quote and their pricing was transparent and reasonable. The quality of work was excellent. Due to oversight (and quite possibly because it was late in the evening and dark when the crew was wrapping up their work), a little bit of the work on the steps was left incomplete. Next morning, when I noticed, I called Zine and sent him pictures. He got a member of his crew to come and complete the work very promptly. Zine's crew also did a bit of additional work for us at no extra cost! I would have absolutely no hesitation in hiring them for my next masonry project and recommending them to others. read more

Zine and his team were great. They did walkway and stairs for us. Great design and execution. It was a great pleasure to work with him throughout the whole process. We would highly recommend him to our friends for similar work. read more

Our brick front steps were in need of repair after the epic winter we endured, and decided to go with Atlantic Masonry after getting several estimates. Zine and Renee were great to work with and were both friendly and professional. The work was done promptly, very well, and with limited interruption to our family. Zine and his team were able to salvage most of our existing bricks, keeping our costs down. Best of all, we have a functioning entryway into our home roughly a week after calling for an estimate. read more
