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.

Ben did a third project for us this week. First, when I call Ben, he picks up the phone and is…read moreusually onsite within a day or two. His response times are amazing. Next up, we have to discuss price. I've done only a handful of projects, so this is hard for me to judge. But, when I see the work and look at the amount of hours he puts in and the quality of the work, it seems extremely fair and I'm guess extremely competitive. If you think a price is too high, discuss it with him. He and you can work something out...or not. I've worked with him three times and will do so again. That leaves quality as next factor. No one is better. He built a patio from huge pavers that have not moved, shifted, cracked, or drained poorly. We get numerous positive comments. Ben is a polite, clean, professional man that gets to it. I do not believe you will find anyone around who is as fast, affordable, and adept. His sons are great too.

Edgar and sons took 3 trees from our yard Monday this week and I must say I am totally impressed!…read moreAll three guys showed up at 7am and worked hard til 4pm taking 3 huge 80-100 foot trees. Due to the lack of daylight, they had to come back Tuesday to finish, grinding the stumps and cleaning up. They worked very well together and efficiently. The price was great for all they did! I would highly recommend them and will use them again in the future!

Eber was very interested in making sure all the details were understood between the two of us and he checked in with me a couple times to make certain I was happy along the way. His estimate was very fair and reasonable. Better than most. I'd hire him again in a heartbeat.

We found Dan on Yelp when we did a search for someone who could do patios near Lynnfield. We hired…read morehim to renovate the side of our home from a concrete slab (which was falling apart and looked terrible) to a cobblestone style patio. He quickly gave us a very reasonable estimate and provided us with lots of info regarding our options and how we could customize it. He worked hard (in humid weather and rain!) and his crew was always polite. The end product is exactly what we wanted. In fact, better than what we expected because he added custom extras like a curved cut-out area where I could plant a garden. We're in love with our new patio. I would recommend him to anyone needing work done on their home and wanting a true professional with extremely reasonable rates.

Dan is a great guy, very honest, very responsive and great to work with.

Everything came out amazing and was better than we expected. I will definitely use Dan again in the future and cannot recommend him enough! Overall Great Experience! -Rob Beverly, MA
