Mr. Layman was very responsive and his guys did a great job on repairing and replacing our front walk and stoop that is all brick pavers. It looks good as new and Mr. Layman even had his guys come back fix a few things we noticed and they did it wonderful. I would recommend them highly. read more

​They do beautiful work and are good to work with. The team's craftsmanship is truly remarkable, and they are incredibly professional, communicative, and reliable. read more

Had bluestone remodel in front of house. Never fulfilled contract but was paid. Stole 5,000.00 crate of the bluestone that was left that we purchased separately. Asked Mr. Layman to either pay for what was taken or bring all back. Would not reply to our phone calls. His business photos are a fake because the address of business is his residence. We had to seal the stone and other things were not completed that was stated in contract. read more

Showed up to do an estimate then disappeared without doing anything. Called me back trying to call someone else and said he needed to come back out a second time to do the estimate. Was also very weird and inappropriate towards me. Would not recommend. read more

Worst contractor ever! Please do not use this guy for any type of brick work. Cost $6300 for my brick porch and it's atrocious. Will have to spend another $6k for someone to fix what Layman said he would correct initially. read more

I can't recommend these folks enough. Rod, the owner, is a super honest and dependable guy. Their work was top notch! They went above and beyond my expectations. It's wonderful to know that there are businesses like Layman Masonry who take pride in their work and treat the customers so well. They essentially turned my ancient brick sidewalk into a brand new walkway! read more

After meeting with the owner Rod Layman, I felt comfortable allowing him to start work on my brick patio and repair the stone work on my house. His workers were courteous, and kind to my dog (haha). I am extremely pleased with the work, and will recommend him to my neighbors. read more

Layman Masonry - Excellent work guys!!! - Masonry/Concrete Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

I can honestly say that I have NEVER been happier with any sort of contractor whom I have hired. From beginning to end, the folks at Rod Layman Masonry have been superior. I received a quote the day I called. (It took about a week for the two other contractors to give me a quote.) After notifying Mr. Layman that we wanted him to do the work, his crew started the next day. They worked diligently and constantly until the job was complete about a week later. The final bill was exactly what he quoted, even though we ended up making things a bit bigger than was the original plan. I should also add that the "clean-up" was just as efficient. The next time I need masonry work done, I will not bother with the bidding process. It will not be necessary read more

Very thorough in their work, performed the work in a timely manner. They weren't sure they could match the brick on the chimney due to age, but I honestly can't tell where the old brick ends and the new brick starts. Cleaned up after themselves as well which I really appreciate. Easy to communicate with. Great job overall! read more

Layman Masonry was wonderful to work with! I requested a quote from them and they came out promptly to provide one (unlike the other three masonry companies I tried). They were even able to complete the work on my chimney (a new crown) the same day! He even worked into the evening to complete the work and I was so thankful to have it done so quickly! read more

If there were a lower star rating, would do so. Awful. Charged me $1250 because he was going to "redo a bunch of bricks on your house.. you might get water damage if I don't." $1250 later... the chimney looks as if this was done as a joke. barb t. read more

Rod, Tom and Steve did a fantastic job re-bricking my fireplace and hearth at a very reasonable firm fixed price which did not change during the project. They left the indoor worksite clean, no cleaning was required on my part afterwards at all. They accomplished the project quickly and professionally making special accommodations for working within the constraints of existing 100 year old structure (re-leveling settled floor and cutting new brick to fit the irregular edges of the existing brick). Finished look was great! And it matched the decor of the house perfectly. Will definitely hire them again for my next masonry project. read more

Layman masonry did close to 20,000.00 for me and I would highly recommend this company to do any size job. The men were very nice and very professional. I was moving and needed stone work, cement work, roofing, Flooring repairs, painting, everything I needed to pass inspections and sale my house. They help me get things done quickly and they were very affordable in their pricing. read more

Rod Layman and his crew just completed three Kentucky Limestone flower -beds for my my home here in lexington. We are very pleased with the workmanship. We used his services a few years ago for the garden in the front yard, and now just completed the back. I called around and had several estimates placed. Although he was not the cheapest, his price was very competitive and we knew the work would be done right. Rod finished before the agreed date and the cleanup was amazing. His crew was very polite and punctual. I would recommend his services to anyone who is looking to make home improvements. read more
