    Pillar Re-Build

    Tony Devlin and the Straight Up Masonry team were great to deal with. Not only is their work excellent, but it was also carried out w/in the timelines and prices quoted. Afterward, they were extremely conscienscious in their clean up. I plan to use them again for another project on my house next year.

    Answer from pro:

    Thanks for the review and we look forward to seeing and working with you next year. Tony.

    Chimney Rebuild

    Tony and his team were a breath of fresh air. Straight Up Masonry completed the work when they said they would and with the quality and professionalism one would expect in a contractor. We had Straight Up Masonry rebuild our chimney. A key requirement was ensuring the chimney bricks matched the rest of our home. As our house was built in the lat 30s, and used three different colours of brown, I wasn't sure that this could be achieved - but they did. Communicating with Straight Up Masonry was very easy. Whether it be via telephone or email - they were very responsive. In addition, after they completed the work, they ensured that the area was well cleaned and was left as they had arrived. I would highly recommend Straight Up Masonry and plan to use them in future for a porch rebuild.

    Answer from pro:

    Thanks Larry We have had several calls from people in your neighbourhood requesting chimney rebuilds and repairs, plus they have all mentioned your chimney. It really does look great Decky and Emlyn did a great job one this one as they do on all them. Thanks Tony.

He and his team worked very diligently over 3 days rebuilding our chimney and tuckpointing old mortar in our century old home. We very much recommend his services to anyone.

    Chimney Rebuild

    Straight up Masonry came to the rescue in more than one way for us. From first point of contact Crystal is amazing, organized, understanding and accommodating. When our chimney needed to be rebuilt she arranged an estimate very quickly and answered all our questions. She also arranged a tentative date and placed me on an emergency waitlist, which she remembered and squeezed me in shortly when a cancellation came. Straight Up Masonry’s quote was very reasonable and as promised Tony arrived as scheduled (even a bit early) and completed the work on time and the clean up was so fantastic that it didn’t even look as if any work had been done. As requested Tony bagged the chimney with amazing precision and even after Hurricane Sandy’s destruction there were no leaks from the chimney and no issues as we were waiting for a roofer to complete some warranty work on the flashing around our chimney. Once the bagging around the chimney was removed, the bricks and craftsmanship was without a doubt flawless and Straight Up Masonry is nothing less than perfection. I even had a question more than a week after the job was done, emailing Straight Up with a question and was pleasantly surprised to receive a telephone response from Tony himself within 2 hours from my initial email question. When it comes to all masonry needs, please don’t look anywhere else; Straight Up Masonry will give you all of what you need from customer service to excellent craftsmanship. Thank you so much Straight Up Masonry (Crystal and Tony) for everything.

    Answer from pro:

    Thanks Matt, One of the nicest reviews we have received to date, Look forward to helping you out on any other masonry projects you may need in the future. Tony.

    Front Porch Rebuild

    I was very impressed with the work of Tony and his team. The rebuild of my porch was done with care. I have had other not so pleasant experiences with contractors in teh past. this experience was pleasant and the outcome was better than I had envisioned. Tony, followed up to make sure I was pleased with teh work and came back (after I had paid him) to check on an area of concern. How many contactors come back oafter they are paid? Thanks Tony. David

    Answer from pro:

    Thanks David, We like to make sure the clients are happy so follow ups are just part of the job. Tony.
