Interlocking Rear Patio/Stairs, Front Walkway & Stairs, Driveway Border

We hired Thane to remove an existing rear wooden deck and replace it with a 10 x 26 patio and steps, as well as, remove/replace existing front interlocking walkway, stairs, borders and small patio.
Thane's attention to detail, pride in his workmanship, quality of work and overall integrity are exceptional. He ensured that there was little to no damage to surrounding lawn and surfaces by using lumber to protect the areas when wheeling out hand-excavated soil and bringing in new base limestone and interlocking. Our job was completed in mid-April as scheduled despite unpredictable weather. Thane went the extra step of covering the work area with a tarp to protect it from heavy rain.
Thane works extremely clean, neat and organized. This further demonstrates his pride in his workmanship.
Thane worked closely with us to ensure our vision was brought to fruition. His 30+ years of experience are very evident. We have already had numerous compliments on the completed interlocking. We will definitely call A&E Masonry for any future masonry and landscaping needs.
Excellent work!

Hey Adam and Susan....thank you so much for you kind review and hiring me to do the improvements on your home. The old wooden deck in the back yard did not do your home justice. I hope you have many of bbq's/party's on your new stone patio. The front steps and walkway was really starting to show its age and the stone you selected really makes your front entrance stand out from others in your neighbour hood. It was a pleasure working for you and Susan and if you or your family need our service in the future please don't hesitate to call us. All the best in 2019.

We hired thane to replace a block wall and the service and work were beyond what we expected.
He finished the job on time and cleaned up the site.
Would highly recommend him to anyone looking for masonry work.

Hey Joe thank you so much for your kind review and hiring me to build the new block wall for the basement entrance area. Not your typical block installation as we had to retain 8' of soil from the back yard by installing block lock and vertical rebar and filling block core with concrete. The weather was a challenge but managed to get it completed before it got to cold. Let us know if you need our services in 2019. All the best to you and your family in the new year.

Fireplace

We contacted several masonry contractors to provide pricing and scheduling for our project. Thane called within 24 hours and came by exactly when he said he would. He provided several options along the lines of what we were looking for and kept the project inside of our budget. He showed up when he said he would and completed the work on time. He took a lot of time setting up and protecting our brand new floors, which we really appreciated! It was very easy dealing with Thane and the quality of work is top notch! We would definitely recommend A&E and will be using him again in the near future for a smaller project.

Hey Neil....thank you for hiring me to install the stone on your new gas fire place. After picking the stone it was just the matter of finding it in stock and getting it in time so we could get the work done before Christmas. Everything worked out on time and we are happy how the fire place turned out. Thank you for your kind review and we will see you in the spring to tackle the other work you want done. All the best to you and the family in the new year.

Front Entrance - Cold Cellar Leak Repair

Thane responded to my ad with Homestars within 12 hours. We arranged for him to come look at the job and discuss how to best tackle it. The job was to lift the interlocking pavers off a concrete front entrance step, clean, waterproof, relay the pavers sloping away from the house. A&E arrived the following morning, and the job was finished in the same day.
We have had rain for 1 week, as well as hosing off the entrance, and there is NO WATER dripping in our cold cellar. We are thrilled! Thane was pleasant, listened to our needs and completed the job professionally.

HONEST, TRUST-WORTHY COMPANY

Thane is a very trust-worthy, hard-working guy. He did a wonderful job at redoing our interlocking brick in the front of our home and saved us alot of money. He pointed out defects that were overlooked when we originally had the work done by another company. We are very happy with the job that Thane did and recommend him to anyone who wants an excellent job done by an expert. Thanks Thane.

Mortar Repairs and Parging

After contacting A & E through HomeStars, we were contacted that same day by Thane. A few days later we were contacted by Thane who agreed to come to our home a few days later to see what we needed. While the work was important to us as home owners, we appreciated that the job of doing minor mortar repairs and a small parging job in our garage would seem rather insignificant to most masonry companies. Not so in this case as Thane happily agreed to do this work for us for a very fair price. True to his word, the work was done in a very timely manner and the completed projects look amazing and are expertly done. I would look no further when having any masonry work done and if you are lucky, Thane will be your guy! Thanks Thane!

Fusion Stone Installation

Thane was wonderful to work with. He installed fusion stone to the exterior of our home. He had great patience and professionalism with us as we were unprepared for him to work on two occasions. He worked very quick and gave us a good price for the job.
We're very pleased with the finished look. Well done!
