We had an outstanding experience with Mr. Brown…read more Stone Masonry. He completely rebuilt our crumbling chimney using beautiful brickwork that truly looks like a work of art. His craftsmanship and attention to detail exceeded our expectations, especially at such a reasonable price. From the start, he was professional and reliable--he came out quickly to assess the project, provided a clear and fair estimate, and stuck to that exact price. The work was completed promptly, and he made sure everything was cleaned up thoroughly when the job was done. Most importantly, he did exactly what he said he would do--and did it exceptionally well. We are extremely happy with the results and wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to our friends and anyone looking for high-quality masonry work.

I called Dave at Quality Masonry randomly from an online search. He came out promptly and gave me an estimate. He also was able to jump right in and get the job done before my impending inspection! He and his crew did an amazing job, making the foundation look new again and even bricking in an old broken out window and filling a gap behind my concrete step at no extra charge. His estimate matched what I paid to the dollar and it was done in half a day! He even bought matching mulch to cover the dust he left in my flower beds! Foundation inspection passed with flying colors thanks to Dave and his team! Could not recommend more highly!

His pricing was great and fair the entire way. When onsite it felt like we've been friends for years. He has great ideas and also offers concrete solutions that we're excited to look into. All in all we will definitely work again in the future. Even if someone can beat his price, his value is worth it.

I contracted with this company to remove original brick from the front area of my house and to…read morereplace it with contemporary stone. There are numerous areas that look substandard, but the part that is most problematic is the area in which stones have completely fallen off. This is a zero-traffic area of my porch, so there is no reason stones should be falling off. Upon reaching out to inquire about the warranty, as it has only been 2 years since the work was performed, and sharing several photos of the fallen stones, I was informed that they only warranty their work for 1 year. Well, thousands of dollars and only 2 years later, I did not expect for stones to independently fall off my house. Now, I have to pay another masonry company to fix Millikan's error.

In 92 when the housing market exploded in Kankakee County I started my own business had it for seven years. My wife owned half after my divorce I couldn't afford to buy my ex- wife half out. So we sold out. Then Rudy hired me and I hope I helped him with a few things. But he always made sure to keep me busy even though some cold winters . Rudy Bauer is a hard working man and treats his customers well. He goes the extra mile to make sure they are satisfied. So I would recommend him as FIVE STAR CONTRACTOR

She informed me the rep would be Marcus who called me later to confirm appt however there was a time discrepancy...rep stated 9a and he said all he had was 3p. I took the 3 tho I wanted an earlier appt. Before the date I received an email confirming the 9a time. I informed Marcus and he said it was a system glitch. Hmmm ok. He arrived on time for my appt which was 7/24/24. He took his time measuring, answering concerns, using contractor language I didn't know about. I had a couple of issues with the work protocol. A prior contractor informed me he would be replacing entire sections for the same price vs Nomach wanted to work around them for the same price. He went to his truck and wrote out proposals which took about 1 hour. I know my house needs a good tuckpointing job but on one side it's just a few areas, the other side needs a little more attention and the garage needs sum tlc all around the bottom 1/2 but $24,609.24 is outrageous to me. The prior contractor wanted the same. I understand they may be qualified to do the job but that is a good chunk of my income to pay for a job. I get why my neighbors and others do it the cheaper route. People have $25k just laying around? We talked about other jobs too like replacing my door frame in my garage, said he had to consult with someone else; adding gutters to my garage, replacing wood - $5,222.11.....should have used the other guy 2 years ago who said he would do the same for $2100; replacing 5 concrete stairs and not the landing - $9,717....another guy said $10k 2 remove everything and rebuild.
