When I first discovered Justin Epstein Masonry, Justin was active with projects all over town…read more Clearly, he was a mason in demand. I checked out his work and pictures of his projects on justinepsteinmasonry.com. And, that's where I read about his credentials - he's fully insured and has over 10 years of professional experience. So, I called him, and Justin responded quickly to meet with me and go over the details. I had a large, five-step stairway with a landing made of concrete blocks and I wanted it demolished and rebuilt with stone. I wanted granite, and even while our country was facing nationwide shortages, Justin was able to provide the exact stones we discussed. He even took the time to track down additional historic granite stones to add more character to the stairway - more than I thought was possible. His crew's craftsmanship is exceptional. And, I imagine those stairs will be around for 100 years or more, so it's worth it to hire the best. Justin is great to work with because he's smart, honest, and reliable. He is a master of his craft and a true professional. He was able to deliver a great-looking stairway. In fact, they look better than I expected. I highly recommend him and would hire him again.

Throughout the entire process, Justin was extremely responsive and his team was efficient and very detail oriented.

Martin made an appt 4 a Fri afternoon & I was making a decision that wk, so I cancelled a different contractor (electrician), in order 2 move things along. 3). Fri came & went with NO CALL/TEXT/EMAIL WHATSOEVER. Maybe they're gd masonry workers, but their customer services suck bitime. DON'T BOTHER booking an appt w them. Keep looking until u find someone who appreciates that your time is as valuable as theirs. Part 2 - update Now I feel terrible about what I wrote. Life happens & I obviously slipped thru the cracks when your assistant tried 2 reach customers. It's not your fault cuz stuff like that is bound 2 happen. It ended up being me. Guess I was tired of interviewing potential masonry people. Your company had 5 stars & my hopes were up. Wishing your family only the best.

Jerry brings top notch service…read more My condo building had some water leaks in the basement, so we needed to waterproof the basement. Originally, I thought patching the inside of the basement would suffice. I found Complete Paving & Masonry on Yelp, and reached out; Jerry responded very quickly and was able to come by to provide a visual inspection and a quote. He recommended that work needs to be done on the outside in order to fix the inside. We took a walk around the outside and he provided points of what work needed to be done. Essentially, he recommended to dig up the dirt around the foundation; patch and seal the foundation; put in some gravel and then cover it up with dirt. This would help prevent water from leaking through the foundation into the basement/garage. After conversing with my fellow condo neighbor, we hired Jerry's team to do the work. Within a week, they were able to come on site and start the work. It took them 4 days to do the work (original quote was 3-5 days). Jerry and his team did a magnificent job. They went above and beyond the original estimate's work at no extra charge to improve the water flow surrounding the condo. They also did some additional patch work on the outside of the condo. When the job was completed, Jerry walked me through everything his team did and why it was done, so I was able to understand the reason for the work. Jerry is friendly, honest, and provides top notch service. I highly recommend his team for any mason work.

I selected Ben The Mason to repair / rebuild the fire brick inside a fireplace and chose him…read morebecause of his experience. Inside the fireplace, grout had all but disappeared on the back / angled wall and several fire bricks were loose. Timeline of events: Sent an email to Ben with pictures and a description of the problem on a Friday at 3:12 PM. He called me at 5:15 PM that evening asking if he could visit to see the job and offer me an estimate, he came by at 5:44 PM, and after reviewing and carefully describing the work needed to repair, he offered his proposal which I accepted. AND the VERY NEXT DAY, a SATURDAY mind you, he and his son arrived at 8:00 AM and the job was completed by 3:00 PM. So literally WITHIN 24 HOURS Ben The Mason had responded to my request, came by to see the job, offered a quote, and did the repairs. The entire experience exceeded my expectations, and I am very impressed with the service and craftsmanship provided by Ben The Mason. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

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.

It's now about 10 months since Zine came out to meet me. I reached out to him about 5-6 months ago…read moreabout 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.

We just had a great experience working with Eligio to replace an old asphalt driveway on the side…read moreof our house on a sloping retaining wall. Eligio proposed several materials and adjusted them in line with the specific features we were looking for. We wanted a surface that would be both stable under the specific conditions (directly up against the foundation of our house and next to the sloping retaining wall, but also more porous than the asphalt. Eligio and his crew did a meticulous job to make sure the ground was properly regraded to improve water flow away from the house while making the surface more porous (hence the wider spacing between the cobblestones. He also adapted the design so I could have some planting space between the wall and the cobble stone. We were impressed with the crew's diligence and efficiency. Given the particular challenges and materials we were looking for, I consider the price to have been very fair.
