Rod and his team were phenomenal to work with. I have a leaning block wall on my property that needed to be fixed. I received several bids, and each company offered different solutions. Rod's solution made the most sense - he explained everything clearly and thoroughly. From start to finish, he was communicative and fair in pricing. The work he and his team did was top quality. He left the site spotless at the end of each day and kept me apprised to the daily progress. Thank you so much, Rod - it was an absolute pleasure working with you! read more

Ignore any reviews about lack of response. This is a 5 star company. The trades are backlogged this year. Half the places I called didn't call me back and the ones that did took a couple of days. I think it's rather stupid and petty to leave a negative review when no actual work has been performed. Anyway, I came home last Wednesday afternoon to a big hole in my block fence due to an unidentified vehicle that lost control on the wet road. I talked to several contractors and learned that my block size (4x10x16) was discontinued a few years ago and nobody had any, not even suppliers. I was faced with replacing the panel with 4x8x16 block that would not exactly match the rest of the fence. I could live with that and requested quotes. Then Rod called me back and said he had some 4x10x16 block. I texted him a photo and he replied that he had enough block to add to my undamaged blocks to restore the wall. He gave me a price that was in between the prices I was getting for the smaller block. I gave him the job and he scheduled me for today, Thursday, which was fine because other contractors were telling me at least two weeks. Rod and his crew showed up at 5AM (to beat the heat) and were done before 10AM. They did a quality job and I would certainly call upon him for future masonry work. read more

Not sure why this has been reported as closed. I just recently used Rod and his team, and I was very happy and satisfied with their work. We wanted 2-3 extra layers to an existing wall, with stucco. They are true craftsmen, take great pride in their work, and they do an outstanding job. They matched the stucco perfectly, and reinforced the existing wall with rebar for stability to the additional layers. Rod also put caps on the pillars where none previously existed to give the wall a nice finished look. Rod was a very good communicator with when they were able to start, and kept us informed. He was competitive but not cheap -- but if you want cheap, you essentially will get what you pay for. Good luck with that. read more

I have called and left a message on the machine. I'm hoping that they will get back to me.I can't really give stars.but it won't let you write this unless you put one because he hasn't done any work for me. I'm hoping that he will and I'm hoping that he will give me a call and answer his messages Thank you Rob read more

Rod and his crew were fantastic! Part of our block wall was destroyed during the last monsoon. We had Rod come out the next day to give us an estimate on repairing it, and I might add that he arrived very punctually at our appointment time. He was very responsible in keeping in touch with us about questions we had. They started the work the very next day, and again they were right on time. They finished the wall within 2 days, one day ahead of time. The wall looks beautiful. I would recommend Walls By Rod to anyone. David read more

What is not to say? Rod's team was prompt, they are professionals that looked at every single detail and made recommendations along the way that significantly improved my original design. We are so happy and recommend Rod to anyone we know who needs concrete or block wall work. We have an upcoming project and will absolutely be using him again soon! read more

Walls By Rod - Rod and his team did a fantastic job giving us a hip new patio out front of our little ranch house. We highly recommend!!! - Masonry/Concrete Near Me

Let's see.... Rod showed up on time, every time we met. His prices are more than fair. His finished work was exactly as described beforehand, on time and on budget. He actually listened to us and completely understood the challenges of the project. Rod's attention to detail and professionalism exceeded our expectations in every way. Like mentioned in a previous review, he is fully licensed and insured. I would recommend Rod to anyone with a masonry project. read more

This review is far past due. The job was completed sometime in November 2017 but talks had initiated sometime in October. I had purchased the home in September. We purchased a renovated older style home, and when we were going through the motions of the purchase, the first thing we knew we were going to work on was the backyard. The house still had a chain-link fence in the backyard which was along an alley, only security we had were the 14 oleanders blocking the alley from my back yard and pool. I was looking at getting a 6ft, 75LF block wall installed. For a home job like that I was reaching out to many contractors for bids. Rod by far was the most realistic priced sub contractor. I honestly feel bad for anyone who calls everyone but Rod for a bid. When I say Rod's prices are fair I mean they are FAIR. 3x, 4x, even 5x times fair, if you get my drift. Without hesitation I gave the job to Rod and his team. Then a bunch of weird stuff happened, all on my part. But the main thing Rod kept in touch every week for a month until I was ready to go. He even hung around the backyard until the inspector came. Job was done in 3 days. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I'm going to reach out to him again for another bigger job. Its without saying they've earned a loyal customer. read more

Called and left a message over a week ago. No response. Also sent them a message and no response to that either. I read another review that had this same issue, and had hoped it had been resolved. I guess not. Will be taking my business elsewhere. Too bad to, because this company came highly recommended by a good friend of mine. read more

We had a 30 ft block wall put up by Rod and his crew. Rod was fast, efficient and professional. His rates are very competitive. It was a pleasure working with him. Highly recommend! read more

We had a wonderful experience with Rod and his crew. I spoke with Rod on Monday and had a consultation. Due to a job on his calendar rescheduling to the following week, our job ended up being completed by Friday! We had four windows and a column that were brick and needed to be done in stucco, and we also had him build and stucco a mailbox. He finished the job in two days, was very good with communication regarding exactly the finished product we wanted, his crew were polite and efficient, and they left the work site CLEAN. Seeing that we can't paint the stucco until it cures in two weeks, if it currently were the same color as the house, I don't think you would have even known that they were there - which says a lot about their craftsmanship. Rod is so kind, great to work with, and we have future work that we will call on him for again. read more

This was the second time I used Walls By Rod, this time for a much larger job. I was looking to have a view fence put in around the perimeter of my front yard. Rod was near the lowest bid and based on my experience with him on the last project I didn't hesitate to give him the job. I had a very specific style in mind involving the look of the iron and block and Rod absolutely nailed it. Its been about a month since everything has been done and I can't count how many times I've gotten compliments from the neighbors or people walking by, with a few even asking specifically who did the work. Couldn't be happier with how it turned out. read more

Not very professional. Did not send quote until reminded. Citing a family emergency. Kept calling late at night. Tired to change quote adding removal of existing fence for additional fee. Hung up in a range when told we chose someone else. read more

Contacted for a quote. We talked on the phone a few times and agreed for Rod to visit the property for a better estimate. I felt very good about this company, after talking to Mary and Rod As a matter of fact, I was hoping to award the fence project to them.two weeks later and couple emails trying to reach out, I just receive an email mentioning that they haven't visit the property. I was delayed two weeks, since I wanted to give them a fair chance at submitting their quote. Review is not on the quality of their work, but on the lack of professionalism and poor management. Suggestion, If schedule is to busy to accommodate new customer, decline business. read more

Rod did great work for a damaged block wall. Fast and easy communication. Professional and the area was very clean when he and his team was done. He was able to match the old bricks identically which saved me from having to paint. Attention to detail and gave me some tips on other projects that I had. Overall great experience and highly recommend! read more

Rod is an amazing craftsman. He recently built a retaining wall at my daughter's home in Cave Creek. The work was excellent. Rod and his crew arrived early in the morning with an array of masonry tools. They were very hardworking, meticulous and competent. Rod is fully licensed and insured. I wholeheartedly recommend his services without reservation. read more

Requested a quote via Yelp, it is 6 days later and never heard back. So much for his 100% response rate. If you're not interested, at least have the courtesy to say so. read more

Today was the second time I've had the pleasure of working with Rod. The first time was when someone ran their car through my block wall and Rod came out to fix it. This time I had a tree that grew into the wall and knocked some blocks loose. Both times Rod came out, assessed and explained the situation and what needed to be done to fix it and provided an estimate. After hiring him to fix the wall he provided an accurate time frame for work to be done. Rod will take the time to explain everything to you and answer any and all of your questions that you may have. If you need a mason, give him a call. read more

Rod & his team were great to work with. The job ended up being worse than expected. They finished a day early, worked around our crazy schedules & left our yard spotless. Rod was very friendly & fair. We highly recommend his work. read more

Rod and his team did a fantastic job on my privacy wall. Rod is very personable and easy to work with. I'm very particular with whom I hire (as I do most work myself); and I would hire him again without question. Thanks again! read more

I called Rod based on all the great reviews he had. He answered his phone right away and seemed eager to come out and take a look at the wall we needed built. Since it was the Friday before Father's Day weekend he said he could be out on Monday afternoon, and would give me a call that day to let me know what time. Since he does his own block he wanted to make sure his current jobs were taken care of. Which I thought was reasonable. Come that Monday...nothing. I did not hear from him at all. We will be looking for someone else. read more

This review is way long in coming, but honestly can't say enough good things about working with Rod. He and his team came and pulled down 1 (12") section of concrete not the footing, and built 3 new 12" sections literally in one day. The work looks amazing, clean and stable. They were always right on time and great with communication. And with all of that, a erally affordable price. Thanks Rod! read more

Couldn't even get the guy to show up despite repeated attempts. Forced to go elsewhere despite his "great rating".

Rod is great to work with! We received multiple bids and his was the lowest to add 2 rows to the top of our existing block wall and stucco. His crew was very professional and FAST! In the end, we have a great looking wall and you can barely tell that it was an add-on since he color matched the blocks and mortar. The crew also meticulously cleaned up and left the site looking better than they found it. This company is top notch and we will definitely use them again. read more

I can't say enough good things about Rod and his crew. He promptly got out to my house to give me a quote on replacing my wood fence with a block one. After hiring him, he gave me an honest time frame and stuck to it. He was in constant communication with me throughout the process. He takes pride in his work and I shows. The wall was up in a two days and looks great! read more

Called Rod based on his Yelp reviews to replace an old rotten wood fence between my house and my neighbors house. He came out and gave me a bid. He showed up at the time he said he would and gave me a verbal quote but said he would email me as well. I got the email a couple days later and it was the same as his verbal quote. We went with him and he was able to get me in the next week. Rod and his crew showed up early (5am) and got to work. They were very professional and kept the yard clean and even boarded up a hole in a wood fence so my dogs wouldn't get out. Rod was on site the entire time and was a true professional. He even made sure my neighbor was ok with the early start time and the look of the wall on BOTH sides. He did such a great job with the wall I had him pour a slab for a new shed. If you want quality craftsmanship, professional crew, and reasonable prices...call Rod. read more

Rod and his crew did a fantastic job for us! We had them do two jobs at the same time, stucco over a block wall along the back of our property and build a low scalloped brick and stone wall across the front of our house. The design of the front wall was unique and we weren't sure it could be done. Rod listened to our requests and turned our dream into a reality. We have a 1934 house and I was concerned that the wall would look too "new". Rod concentrated on my concerns and the wall goes with the house perfectly with that "old world" charm that I was looking for. His crew was great, here early every morning and worked more than a full day, every day. They were always very nice, cleaned up every day before they left, and had terrific work ethics. Rod worked with them every day, putting in a lot of time to make sure we were happy with the results. He went out of his way to communicate, checked with us several times before starting the project, and checked with us every day during the entire process. The job was finished within the quoted time and budget and we were thrilled with the results of both projects. Rod and his crew were definitely the best contractors we have ever used. read more
