Barry and his team did an excellent job on our water damaged chimneys and tuck pointing. He was prompt, responsive and did a great job for a very fair price. You can tell he really enjoys what he does and it shows in the work he does. I'd feel confident recommending him to anyone for their masonry needs. read more

Barry worked on my mom's giant planter/retaining wall, which we were worried would have to be totally replaced because it was in such bad shape (see the before photo!). He did fantastic work! Very high quality, and he was also a delight to work with - prompt & communicative. Highly recommend Barry! read more

Update to this is I just had my fp flue and furnace flue scoped by camera and a drone put on top of the fp. They (Naperville Fireplace) said the tuckpointing looks good but what I need is a liner for the inside of the flue coming from my furnace and water heater (they are the third people to tell me that). When I asked if they thought the previous leaks in my basement were due to any type of mortar failure on the outside (I already had the bottom of the mortar fixed by ANT Masonry for a minimal cost), they said no--it's probably because you have some failure inside the flue for the furnace and that dampness is coming into the basement. Interesting. I've actually had no dampness in basement since the bottom of the mortar was repaired and the lower brick was tuckpointed. So, on to the chimney liner..... read more

Barry and crew did great work this past summer in repairing my damaged chimney cap and brick chimney after sustaining damage from flying debris during the June 2021 tornado. I contacted him on a Monday, he came out on a Wednesday and the work was done by the same Saturday afternoon approximately 2 weeks after the storm when I'm sure he had several other customers calling for estimates and work to be done. read more

Barry came out with his crew and removed all the mortar between the joints of my front and back porches. They then filled it all back in and it turned out beautiful. I went from having very patchy looking porches with different colored mortar everywhere to having two structures that look brand new. The masons that came to my house were professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. read more

Barry did an awesome job on my house. It's a 100+ year old home so finding replacement brick was impossible. He removed matching brick from an inconspicuous place on our detached garage and used that on the house. (The garage will be torn down and rebuilt soon anyway.) After tuckpointing and replacing brick on the house, the place looks great and is water tight again! Barry was also able to clean up some working but ugly repairs made by the previous owner. read more

Barry was a complete professional. His attention to detail is top shelf. We highly recommend his services.

We had a badly deteriorated brick mailbox that needed to be replaced. Someone else that we tried to contact never even returned our calls, but when I was referred to Barry Cargill and I dropped him an email one Thursday night, I was very pleasantly surprised to hear right back from him that night. By Monday I had a beautiful new mailbox. Barry and his assistant were extremely conscientious about respecting our plants and property from damage, and they left everything absolutely clean at the end of the project. He had an artisan's attention to detail and was passionate about doing things the right way. I would wholeheartedly recommend Barry Cargill Masonry to anyone without hesitation. read more

PROFESSIONAL, EXCELLENT CRAFTSMANSHIP, FAIR PRICE Barry responded promptly to my request for an estimate for brick/mortar tuck pointing of a few areas on a 1920's bungalow. I sent pictures; got his estimate; and he arrived on time the next day - good communications. We discussed the areas needing work and the mortar color that would be a good match, and even identified a couple of additional small areas needing work. The finished project looks great and was less than the estimate. Discussions with Barry demonstrated his professionalism and knowledge of his craft. I highly recommend Barry's masonry company. and would use them again without hesitation. read more

We contacted Barry to do some tuckpointing and brick replacement on our nearly 100yr old chimney. Barry came out the next day to give us a quote, and started working on the chimney that weekend. 10/10 Would Recommend! Barry was extremely professional, and his craftsmanship is on point! Our chimney looks so beautiful, we get random comments on it. We will definitely be contacting Barry with any masonry needs we may have in the future. read more

I can't say enough positive things to emphasize how grateful I am to Barry and his crew for the fine work they did on my crumbling chimney. Barry's was one of five companies I contacted to get an estimate. Two of the companies never showed up for the estimate. Two others came and did a fine job in providing their estimates. I was prepared to hire either one. Then came Barry. I called him just to get one more estimate. He came out the next morning and that was it. Barry's demeaner, the way he fussed over the estimate, wanting to give me several possible fixes, talking to himself, and then to me, and then back to himself. It was obvious that he was trying to make sure that he proposed the best solution. Then took plenty of time explaining to me why he made the recommendation he did. He had the job before he stopped talking. On top of that, he quoted me a very fair price. Barry and his crew were out two days later getting the job done. A tear down and rebrick of 80% of the chimney, plus a new crown. No harm to the flowers that were right below their work area. Perfectly matching brick. Expert craftsmanship. One day tear down, one day brick up, day three for the crown. Done. And done beautifully. I highly recommend Barry and his brick layers. Hey, wasn't that an eighties band. read more
