Pawel came out and priced it our worst case scenario (as requested) to include the veneer and retaining wall. Once we started and saw the retaining wall was intact, he adjusted the price down accordingly. He communicated with me the entire way, giving his opinion and how it would look if we do it this way or that. He wasn't pushy at all, with the exception of the retaining wall adjustment, the price never changed. I've been in construction and facilities all my career, I had Zero issues with Pawel, never thought he was trying to take advantage of me and now have him redoing my back patio which is pavers.

In addition, he provides a ton of valuable experience and advice to anything related to your property. I had Joe extend my patio, change the grading behind my detached garage, install direct downspout drains to my retention basin, etc. Joe has also provided contacts for numerous other services I needed e.g. plumber, carpenter, pest control, etc. I suggest anyone looking to switch landscapers... go with Joe at Green Concepts.

Star Tuckpointing was recommended to me by a friend, and I'm glad I chose them. They were…read morestraightforward, honest, and fairly priced from start to finish. They took the time to explain exactly what work needed to be done, why it was necessary, and answered all of my questions, including advice on future masonry projects around my property. Communication was excellent, with clear expectations on timing, scope, and duration of the work. Most importantly, the quality of the finished work was outstanding. Highly recommend. 10/10. Peter and Voytek are the absolute best.

We've been working with Voytek and Peter at Star for 20 years and cannot say enough good things…read moreabout them! True professionals, very knowledgable, and also responsive and communicative. They take the time to thoroughly explain the options and provide a transparent and accurate quote up front, and they do excellent quality work for a very fair price. They have done many repairs for us over the years (stairs, re-caulking balcony, tuckpointing, re-sealing portions of the building) and recently (three years ago) did a complete tuckpoint/masonry repair/seal on our building, a three-story condominium. It is always a pleasure to work with them--they come when they say they are going to come, do the high quality work that they promise, and stand by their work after it is done! Would not hesitate to call them about any masonry issue. Very highly recommend Star!

We had quite a large project that we did with Evanston Masonry. Our century-old brick needed…read moreconsiderable work, with all the mortar being ground out and redone, as well as new lintels, several rows of replaced brick (where previous homeowners had done the wrong thing, resulting in whole rows sagging and collapsing the top of the window), and even a chimney rebuild. From quote to start was more than a year (due to other constraints), and once started the project took several weeks with a lot of scheduling nuances and coordination with other things. Eric and his team did a fantastic job throughout. The crew was friendly and respectful and their work was and is impeccable. Eric was over-the-top communicative both before, during, and after the project. All little issues were resolved immediately, often going above and beyond. We were particularly impressed with how well Eric and his team worked with the older brick, which requires special care and mortar. Even *matching* old brick is quite hard because the size is different from modern brick and there aren't many companies which make it, meaning color options are quite limited. Eric did a fantastic job and I think most people would struggle to pick out the new from the old. Highly recommend for any masonry work.

I would not hire them again. My patio is fairly new. Before they came it was sealed properly…read more After they came it fell apart after 6 mo. They'll tell you every excuse in the book, saying the patio has too much shade, poor drainage, etc. But the fact is, it was sealed and fine until they came, resealed/sanded it and then it was a disaster. Now I have to get it redone properly again. What a waste of money that was. Do not listen to the excuses they provide. They will reply here and it's 100% a lie. They would not come and redo it for me. So I will never recommend this place to anyone. Poor craftsmanship on their part. And they would not resolve it, so not a trustworthy business. Come with the excuses. Adios. https://youtu.be/e7CbCTkfPxE - view of the shoddy craftsmanship applied to my entire patio. The whole thing looks like this now and did after 6 mo of them redoing the patio. Before this, I never had problems to this degree, period. Nothing even close to this state. My entire patio has sun hitting it, there's no excuses here. There's guards along the edge to keep plants from penetrating it, always has been. They'll throw every excuse at the book while other contractors will just make it right, even if they have to redo such a poor job that did not hold up even for a year.

They demolished the steps, poured new ones along with a new walkway, and got a perfect shape.

Very friendly, professional, and a good value overall.
