I found DiBara on Angie's list. From the time I contacted this company for an estimate, the communication was the best we have dealt with with any concrete/masonry company ever. The prices were fair, so we agreed and reserved a date and time. They were on-time and finished when they said! HUGE for us!!!! They even cleaned up "everything" after they finished and did not disturb our neighbors yard. Thank you! The quality of work was top notch, as well! This company is on it from the beginning to the end of completion. We will continue to use this company for all future needs. Nice people to work with that are true professionals! Highly recommend 100% read more

Highly recommend! I had four contractors opine on my project, one of which I almost started my project with (very relieved I didn't). None of these contractors had me convinced that they knew what they were talking about, aside from my quoted price increasing multiple times. Once I engaged Matt and his team (Edgar, Carlos, Rene, Herf, Amanda, etc), I was instantly blown away by the consistency, transparency, and knowledge the team had. It is clear that their experience exceeds anyone else I considered, with no hidden fees or sudden "findings" that would alter my fee paid. Matt was very impressive in his approach, as he personally provided his assessment, provided different options, and overall made me feel confident in hiring him. I've already referred DiBara to a friend who was seeking his teams services, which to my knowledge, they already engaged in starting their project. HIGHLY recommend, and will not only consider, but will definitely hire them for two more projects. It is clear that they are great at what they do, as I saw that a house not far from me had engaged them as well. read more

Very, very happy with the work that the DiBara team did on our 112-year-old house. Francisco and Jesus were always on time, polite, respectful of our property, did great work, and left the area cleaner than it was when they arrived. Francisco did a walk-through with me every day to show me what they'd done, talk about next steps, and make sure that I was fully up to speed. We had both indoor and outdoor masonry work done, and in both cases they mixed up some little test batches to color match the new work to the old. After a couple of days of drying, it's hard to tell the difference even if you know where to look. Communication was great all the way through. The DiBara family has been in the masonry business for 5 generations, and you can tell that doing good work is a passion for them. Highly recommended. read more

Had a great experience with DiBara Masonry. Needed to get a brick mailbox pillar rebuilt after a truck took it out. Matt came out and spent a decent amount of time looking at what needed to be done. Their quote was fair and they completed the work quickly. I am very happy with the final result. It matches the pillar on the other side of the driveway perfectly. Would definitely use them again and would recommend to anyone. read more

Dibara Masonry - Brand new and matches the other one perfectly. - Masonry/Concrete Near Me - Glendale, California

I went looking for a company that could handle a leak from a 5000 sf deck into our basement. Matt from DiBara recognized immediately the age of the house and identified the area of the leak, but corroborated his opinion by pumping colored air from the basement. Then he sent us John who further investigated the issue and helped formulate and implement an improved solution, Thank you, DiBara, for getting to the root of the problem read more

I read multiple positive reviews of DiBara Masonry online and reached out to them in order to repair a concrete wall in my condo. Ultimately, they got the job, and the company definitely lived up to the reviews. They were communicative, efficient, friendly, and the work came out great. Worth noting that I received one other estimate from another company. DiBara pricing substantially less. When I need more masonry work done, DiBara will be my first and only call. read more

We reached out to the company for quotes at two separate properties located within 10 minutes apart. The sales representative responded and asked very specific questions about the project. She also requested pictures, square footage, and details which we answered promptly. We were told that if we didn't submit the pictures, the VIDEO call will be canceled. Everything was submitted. The Video call was scheduled between 1:00-1:30pm. And was expected to take up to 45 min since they need to demonstrate and discuss tile options, layouts, prices, financing, etc. sales representative called at 1:30pm and asked the same questions that I had already answered which led me to believe that he didn't bother to read my information or it was not given to him. I answered the questions again and before I know it, in less than 1 minute, he hit me with $35k-$45k maybe more because they might need to clear some bushes. I was appalled by the 1 minute presentation. There was no video call and the communication was rather poor and frustrating. To say the least, we received two more quote from other two high quality companies for under $15k for both properties. I will not be recommending or using masonry company for the above reasons. $45k quote pitch call, put together in less then a minute. He was certain that definitely it wouldn't be less but may go higher. read more

I contacted DiBara Masonry for help with a retaining wall project. From the moment I contacted them they were responsive and quickly set up time for me to discuss my project with Matt. Matt walked through my requirements and helped me figure out the best and most cost effective plan to meet my needs. On the day, the team that came out to help were punctual, efficient, their work high quality and they took the time to answer all of my questions. Just a great service all around, would highly recommend! read more

Matt, Edgar and Fabian have been great to work with. They did a very professional job on the exterior of my building and the interior making it water proof. They stuck to the budget and with Rebecca's help arranged payment in a timely manner. They are a very organized company. I appreciate working with professionals who get the job done on time. Sincerely, Dr. LeRoy Perry read more

A tree fell and destroyed our concrete wall! DiBara Masonry responded quickly with an assessment and estimate. Their work was outstanding and customer service was stellar! I highly recommend this company! read more

We had a great experience with Dibara Masonry. We are very happy with our new steps and concrete wall. Everyone was friendly and professional. The quality of work was top of the line and done in timely manner. We will definitely call on this company again for other projects. Highly recommend!!! read more

I spent several weeks trying to find a company to do work on our driveway. The slope of the driveway scraped the bottom or our two Tesla's. We needed to protect the bottom of the vehicles as that is where the batteries were. After having several companies respond and a couple coming out to look at the driveway, each of them quoted over $5,000 to redo the whole driveway. Finally, Matt came to the house and said that it would be a shame to redo the whole driveway, as the driveway was inlaid with "old" brick which was very expensive. He suggested that we would shave down the cement by a couple of inches and that might do the job. It certainly did. Dibara Masonry saved us thousands of dollars, they were prompt, courteous and clean. We were extremely happy with the job done. I would certainly use them again. read more

The concrete around my pool was done in the 70's and for the most part held up. The diving board area had issues and over time a chunk of the concrete broke off. We had DiBara Masonry fill in the whole where the diving board once was and repair the concrete. The hardest part was finding bricks that had broken off. It took a few days but they located the bricks and were able to make them look exactly the same. They were very professional, thorough and clean. I would recommend them to anyone that needs pro masonry work. They really are the best in a sea of average. Dan M read more

DiBara Masonry rebuilt a portion of our retaining wall, removed old concrete, poured new concrete and took care of any touch ups and minor issues they came across. John and Gobino were very professional and great to work with. Their work looks perfect and they managed the project and their time so well. Organized and on time dumpster, porta potty, cement truck delivery/pickup, and workers arrived early every day. This experience is one of the best we've had with contractors/construction work. read more

A great company with great people at all levels, freindly on the phone and amazing work. My second time using them and I would recommend them to anyone that needs any work related to concrete and walls. When you work with DiBara you know that the work will get done and it will stand the test of time, once again thanks read more

Dibara Masonry - Replaced a 50 year old wall, Im sure this new one will last another 50. - Masonry/Concrete Near Me - Glendale, California

Excellent work. I got multiple quotes for a job requiring about 3.5 yards of concrete work, and DiBara was the low bid. The work they did was extremely good, the crew (Edgar and Carlos coordinating, Eddie and others working) was professional and easy to get along with. They had some really good ideas along the way which I incorporated into the job. I will definitely use them again, and will recommend them to friends and family. read more

I own a small apartment bldg with brick walls around two front patios, with ficus hedges on the outside. The brick walls are really old and have been cracking and coming apart in places, and I wanted to see if there was any way to save them, rather than having to demolish them and rebuild and most likely lose all the ficus hedges. Because of all the great reviews on Yelp, I contacted DiBara Masonry and met with Matt. He and his engineer were able to figure out a way to reinforce and repair the walls, while replacing some of the bricks as needed. It wasn't inexpensive, but much much less than if the whole thing had to be demolished and rebuilt. And his crews were able to do it in just a few weeks, without causing any major inconveniences for the tenants. These guys are total pros. I'm very pleased with their work and wouldn't hesitate to use them again if necessary. They're worth every penny. Highly recommended! read more

This is an opinion of the way they have treated me, a prospective customer. Admittedly, this review is about seeking to do business with them, not about the quality of their work; I didn't use them for my project. Perhaps the most challenging experience I've ever had with any construction trade during the planning/bidding process and I've been building projects for 40 years. Their arrogance is astounding. First of all, they didn't respond to the first inquiry that I made through HomeAdvisor; I gave them the benefit of the doubt and after about 10 days called their office directly. The office manager explained that I would need to send photos in order to set up a phone consultation with their owner. It was a Friday, and she asked if a particular 15 minute window on Tuesday would work for me. I blocked out the time -- essentially my lunch hour; he called after the 15 minute window after I sent a reminder to the office. He sounded like a nice enough guy, but his swagger was palpable over the phone: "If you're looking for a bargain, that's not us." I had sent comprehensive plans and photos, and it seemed that he had barely looked at them. His reviews caused me to overlook this attitude. His parting words were "my office will call you to set up a time for me to come look at the job." I just wanted a bid, so I looked forward to his office calling. The next day (at about the same time) I reached out and got the same office manager -- "Oh, I was just getting ready to call you" -- who explained that Matt was available on next Monday afternoon. Monday didn't work for me. I don't know about you, but I'm used to saying to customers "What's best for you." She also then sprang on me, that there is a $97 consultation fee for an in person walk through, to get a bid. Seriously? I spent the time drawing plans and writing job notes (all of which were sent) because I want to waste your time getting you out here to bid? After I spoke to her, I heard from Matt, the owner. To be fair, he said that he would indeed come to my home without charging the $97 fee. That was right after he asked me what my hourly rate was and that he'd send me a check for the time wasted; I found that somewhat condescending, and not even relevant. He did say "What can I do to make this right," and went on to say that his process of bidding requires an hour travel round trip travel, an hour walking the job and making recommendations, and two hours preparing the bid. I'm sorry...isn't that your job? Further, Matt told me that he would be "the most qualified contractor to ever walk your property." Not "among the most," not "one of the best," not "a really thoughtful craftsman." "The most qualified." What's best for me was to part ways. You decide, you may not be as thin-skinned as I am. But I will tell you that when you work with a trade contractor (or anybody for that matter) who thinks their are in a league of their own, their stuff doesn't stink -- when there is a problem or an unanticipated bump in the road during the job, which often happens, its' my opinion that it will be your problem not theirs. Despite not doing business with them, I wish them the best, and expect that they will mellow with age. Business must be good right now for them but that won't necessarily always be the case. A little bit of humility goes a long way. read more

Work involved putting stone veneer on the surface of my interior brick fireplace. The person who did the actual work was John, with 40 yrs. experience, plus he is a Master Mason! The work done was excellent!! John was easy to relate to and communicate with. He was very professional and top notch. Also, the main office was easy to communicate with and was effective in the process. I would easily use them again if the need arises. read more

We called Di Bara to match and repair brickwork in our condo courtyard. They called back right away, were thorough with outlining fees and services and documented everything down to the bricks that would be replaced and the mortar colors for each position. They even took a video that our HOA loved and approved. The work was excellent and we would gladly use them again. Highly recommend! read more

I recently hired Dibara Masonry to build a small(ish) cinder block wall (26' x 42") to help separate my side yard from my neighbors driveway. From start to finish, they were excellent to work with. Matt (the owner) was super helpful and informative when he came out to look at the job. Carlos and Edgar were always friendly and responded quickly to any questions I had about the project. And John (the builder) did an excellent job in the constriction and always left the site clean each day. They knocked it out, start to finish, in three days. I would highly recommend them and will definitely use them for any future masonry jobs. read more

In my experience with Dibara Masonry replacing/rebuilding a retaining wall, everyone involved has been very professional, communicative and they set accurate expectations. From Matt DiBara's visit for a very competitive estimate to the project manager scheduling the project to the actual workers performing the physical labor, I was very pleased with their interaction with me and the final work product. Matt not only explained my options and the associated costs but he also created a video demonstrating how the work would be performed. The men performing the work were very friendly and they left the work area clean. The whole project was completed in a timely manner and I am very happy with the result. I would be happy to recommend them and I would rehire them for future projects should the need arise. read more

I have worked in the property management field for many years now and finding DiBara Masonry years ago was one of the luckier finds I have had. Matt and his staff always give me great prices and the work is always spot on. I have had them do jobs from easy concrete pours to big city permitted projects and both have always been done the right way. I highly recommend DiBara for all of your concrete projects. read more

Although I decided to postpone my project, working with Matt at DiBara Masonry was a pleasure from start to finish. Finding contractors with honesty and integrity these days is very difficult. Matt was the epitome of both and went out of his way to provide me with as much information as possible regarding my project. I highly recommend giving DiBara Masonry a call if you are considering a masonry and/or construction project. You will be pleased you did. read more

Matt and Mateo are great. Very quick service and call back. Estimate was provided for $97 but it goes to the work if you decide to proceed. We received a very competitive bid and they were very quick at responding to inquiries and getting us the needed details. Professional, license and bonded. read more

After interviewing a couple of different companies, DiBara seemed to be the best fit for our nearly 100 year old brick tudor home tuck pointing work. There were a few minor communication issues however, Sam and Matt and their entire team went above and beyond to ensure the work was completed to our liking. I am very satisfied with the work but want to call out their exceptional customer service! Thank you DiBara for helping make our home look great...especially for its age. If you need quality concrete or masonry work done, this is the company! read more

Background: I had a block wall that had been knocked down by the sanitation dept. Insurance was willing to pay for a replacement only. Situation: The DiBara project consultant kept trying to upsell me an upgraded version of the wall. After several calls and emails back and forth, he finally sent an estimate for replacement work only. Result: Once we had an agreement, Chayan and Jose showed up THE NEXT DAY and did a MAGNIFICENT job repairing the wall. Honestly, you cannot tell it was ever damaged. And the cleanup let the space better than it had been before the wall was damaged. Conclusion: I highly recommend DiBara services. They truly have an outstanding work ethic. read more

The wall around our 20 year old tree had cracked and broken in several places, pushed out by roots and an expanding trunk. I figured it couldn't be repaired and we'd have to cut down the tree. But the Dibara team came up with a solution and the wall looks great now. I'm impressed!! Every step of this process went smoothly from the initial evaluation to the finished product. Every worker was top notch. I highly recommend Dibara Masonry. read more

I contracted Dibara masonry for a couple projects at my job, one was repaving a driveway after gas line repair, the other was repairing a wire lath and concrete ceiling. Both jobs came out great. The gravel match in the driveway came out as close as can be hoped for when repairing 40 year old concrete with tiny pebbles in it, and the ceiling came out nice and smooth and flat, a difficult thing to do upside down. The company was professional, documented everything, got started on the project within a week after performing a walk thru of the job site, and were able to finish each project in a day or 2. I would recommend Dibara masonry to friends or family as well as contract thru them again at my place of work. read more

There was a big gap in the stone fence bordering our neighbor's property. DiBara did an absolutely seamless job filling it in. My neighbor said he could barely tell that there ever had been a gap! Plus, they stayed with their estimate even when the job turned out to be a bit more complicated. Highly recommended! read more

I recently contacted DiBara Masonry for work on lifting foundation on the side of my house. The walk thru and the work performed was on time and professionally done. I'm very impressed with the work and recommendations. The service, value and quality was great! This was the 3rd time I've contracted with DiBara and would absolutely contact them again if needed. read more

DiBara Masonry just completed our job of repairing retaining walls. There were many cracks that could have destroyed the walls. The job was done quickly and efficiently with a crew large enough to complete it in 4 days. The crew was professional, always stopped to explain what they were doing, and hard working in 95-degree heat. I would not hesitate to recommend DiBara for masonry work. Their price was very reasonable for all the repairs. read more

What a remarkable company! DiBara Masonry excels at communication from the first contact. They have just completed their 3rd and 4th projects for me - repair of a retaining wall broken by a 200 year old California Live Oak and rebuild of a 75 year old planter. They are incredibly efficient, professional and personable throughout the process. Their pricing, work ethic, professionalism and end product are superb. I cannot endorse this company strongly enough. Teri B. read more

Level of interaction: Phone and at-home estimate. Wonderful representative, Paul. I was also able to talk personally to the owner, Matt. Both really know their stuff. They were prompt and gave me a lot of insight into my repair project and a firm estimate of the cost. I do trust this company to do the job right, I just can't afford it! Note that there is a consultation fee for at-home estimates. read more

When someone ran a red light and crashed into our permitter entryway, my neighbor suggested I contact DiBara. Although we did not end up going with Dibara, we found them to be very professional and courteous. Upon scheduling our paid consultation, Matt DiBara, who clearly cares for his clients, came out to our home not once but twice to provide us with different design options. DiBara also referred hardscape design expert and a company that specializes in iron works. Matt and DiBara are responsive, know their trade, and clearly care for their customers. If we have gone with DiBara, I am confident they would have done an excellent job in helping us repair our damaged entryway. read more

This review is loooong overdue. I found DiBara Masonry on Yelp. They had so many good reviews I decided to go with them. I'm so so so happy I did! Their work is OUTSTANDING period!

You will not be disappointed with this company. They do business right!!! Thank you Alex for handling the job you were beyond professional. read more

Professional, skilled, and prompt. I needed help patching a hole in the cement in my driveway and resetting stones. They assessed the job, gave me a fair quote, and completed it quickly and securely. They compacted the dirt in the hole, filled it with roadgrade aggregate, laid down rebar, poured cement, and then laid the stones on top. Looks beautiful and will hold up for many years. read more
