When unforeseen changes had to be made to our project order, they were very thoughtful and so generous to us. They allowed us to set up payments in a way that matched our budget. Their project manager and owner responded to questions, came by to check on the crew's work, gave us design suggestions, and respected our decisions. We felt cared for on this project! The crew was extremely cleanly each day of work. When they left each day, the site was spotless, as if there had been no work. This was the way it was every single day of the project. The project, roof and siding combined, took roughly 5 or six weeks. They were so kind to even install my window boxes at no cost. This company knows how to do the work, but most importantly is very customer focused. That's our biggest takeaway and we would highly recommend for roofing and siding work.

My wife and I decided to have our house painted this summer. When we started, the old paint peeling…read moreand flaking off the old wooden shingle siding, and the trim paint was cracked and rough looking. We initially decided to go with another outfit (who will remain namless...) who ended up cancelling on us the day before they were scheduled to start the work. With the difficulty of finding contractors after the pandemic, we thought we were in real trouble. Then we found Mendez painters and we were saved! Within a day of calling, Florentino came out to inspect the site and emailed us a quote which was shockingly affordable and included all of the details we wanted to see. So, we put down a deposit and they fit us into their (very busy) summer schedule. Florentino and his crew did amazing work on what turned out to be a huge job. They scraped all of the old flaking paint off, getting down to bare wood in many parts. After power washing, they followed up by using a (very high quality) oil-based primer over the entire house which they then sanded smooth and filled in all of the holes/cracks in our siding. Due to the rain, it took a little longer than expected to get the work done, but they made up for lost time by bringing a HUGE, highly experienced crew. They used Sherwin Williams Duration paint on both the siding as well as the trim. Florentino and his crew really went the extra mile, even filling in some large holes in our siding and re-attaching some worn trim at no extra charge. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking to repaint their home.

Mendez Painters have just finished my house in Stoneham. He was highly recommended by several…read morepeople. My house looks brand new! Perhaps even newer than when I bought it 30 years ago! There were holes in the cedar siding from rusted nails, and each of them (and there were many) was filled perfectly. Amazing! The painters and carpenters are meticulous, and I mean METICULOUS.! They are, bar none, the best painters available! I cannot recommend them highly enough. My house looks beautiful! The owner, Florentin, is honest and works diligently, and was quick to answer all of my calls. This was important to me.+ Thank you, Florentin, and all your painters and carpenters! I am totally impressed!

Specifically, he helped us run a pipe from a boiler room through the ceiling and through an outdoor porch, involving some complicated coordination and sealing. He was professional, friendly, on time, and overall just a great person to work with. I would recommend him to everyone and will definitely go back to him in the future. The whole process, which I had already spent a year trying to get done with other contractors and various services, was completed quickly and efficiently. Thanks!

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.

Well, I got a couple of other quotes from others and I knew after that Stan was the right guy for the job. His numbers are very reasonable and I can tell he knew what he was doing.

We have two small kids and were very concerned to be going into winter without railings (we are 33 steps from the street). Jeff was able to squeeze us in before the end of season. Riccardo and his team were out in the freezing temps finishing the railings. Everything came out great; communications were smooth throughout; and cleanup was perfect. I'd highly recommend this company - we plan to use them for home improvement projects in the future.

Working with Masonworks has been a roller coaster. They are very, very good at the masonry aspect,…read morebut we had a negative experience with everything outside of the excellent stone walls and patio they built for us. They have built beautiful flat stone walls for us in our front and back yards. We were very impressed with them after the first job they did for us in our front yard a few years ago, so we did not even look at other companies when we wanted to spruce up our backyard this year. The garden walls they built in the backyard were once again beautiful. However, as a gardener, I was disappointed and frustrated by the following things: - Our contract included 50/50 loam compost for the new garden beds. During the job, we caught them filling the beds with the grass they had pulled up from our old lawn and asked them to stop doing that. - When I went to start planting, I found that the garden beds had only a layer of new soil but that my shovel quickly hit a lot of big rocks and uncovered old soil, debris, and trash. - They completely trampled and destroyed my established perennial garden, which was located in a garden bed above where the new beds were built. They also broke several pavers in a little garden path I had and removed them without replacing them. - They recommended microclover for my lawn and seeded it for us as part of the contract, but it grew in quite spotty despite us maintaining it properly with daily waterings. I contacted them about the first issue and their initial response was to tell me that the stones I was finding were part of the wall construction - this was not the case. They had someone come out to take a look and concluded that the soil did need to be replaced, which they finally did. It is much better now, though I still have found some large stones in it. However, in the process of solving that issue, they caused the second one - many of the perennials that my mother and I had worked to plant over the past four years were totally destroyed. They offered me a credit to compensate for the loss, or the option to have them reinstall new flowers, but by that point I just didn't want them near my garden anymore so accepted the credit. I didn't bother contacting them about the spotty lawn - I threw down some grass seeds yesterday to try and fill in the gaps. While I appreciated that they did eventually take steps to resolve the issues, I found it quite frustrating to have to keep reaching out just to get them to do what they really should have done in the first place. They never did a final walkthrough as I've seen other contractors do. No apology for destroying my garden. They have a Benjamin Franklin quote, "The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten" - I definitely felt some of that bitterness throughout this process. My conclusion is that they are really excellent masons but do not understand or respect gardens. If you hire them, be prepared to have to deal with that.
