Front flagstone walkway

Several pieces of our flagstone had come apart from salt used during the winter and rain in the spring. We were very satisfied with the attention to detail and high quality work performed. We recommend them strongly and will definitely use Otto's services in the future.

Spalling Bricks and Tuckpointing

I contacted Otto to give me an estimate for replacing about 40 spalling bricks on the back wall of my house and to do some tuckpointing on the front wall. He called me back quickly and came over within a few days to take a look. He explained what needed to be done and gave me an estimate that was quite reasonable. (I'd already gotten a couple other quotes.) When Jesse came to do the work, he was on-time (actually, a little early, which was a nice surprise!), very polite, he worked non-stop till the job was done, and he cleaned up thoroughly. He happily answered any questions I had. Everything looks great, and I'll be calling Otto in the not-too-distant future to take a look at my chimney.... Can't recommend him and Jesse highly enough!

Concrete walkway and pad

Otto's service was top notch in every way. Promptly done by courteous and experienced crew. Retaining wall, walkway demolition and repour, parging and new pad in back all look amazing. Would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this company for home renovation needs.

Window sill repair and tuckpointing

We would like to thank Idress from Otto's Masonry for the excellent work done on replacing a crumbling windowsill we had on our home and for tuck pointing all the little cracks in the mortar of our home. Idress is very experienced, very professional and very courteous. After contacting numerous other companies for quotes, it was very clear that Otto would get our business, the price was right. We would highly recommend Otto's Masonry to our neighbours.

Windowsill

We needed to replace a rotten wood windowsill. Otto's was very professional, well-priced and easy to deal with. The windowsill fits in very well with our Victorian home. I would definitely use Otto's again and would recommend them to others.

Front porch repair

All work was completed in a timely, careful manner. The result was better than I had expected. The estimate provided was accurate and reasonable. We found Otto's Masonry because his staff were working on another house on our street. I was impressed with how careful the work was being done. I highly recommend Otto's Masonry. Elisabeth

New porch and other brick repairs to house and retaining wall

About six years ago Otto's Masonry rebuilt the chimney on my 80-year old house with excellent results. They recently completed work on a new porch and other brick and stone repairs at my house. This company was a joy to work with. Otto clearly communicates with clients on when and what work will take place so there are no surprises. His crews were polite, well-spoken, worked hard and were diligent in ensuring everything was completed to my satisfaction. The result is beautiful. Special thanks and kudos to Carl, Jesse and John for their excellent work and very professional approach. I would confidently recommend this company for any brick and masonry work.

Brick repair

Otto's Masonry repaired a number of bricks on our Victorian house which were simply disintegrating after the hard winter as well as a number of cracks which had shown up. The process of getting a quote was very easy when compared to the rest of the companies I worked with and the price was very competitive. There was a little bit of a scheduling problem on the second day of the job but Otto was able to figure out a way to get the work done. I had some questions about bricks which needed to be repaired as well and Otto made sure that those got done as well before they called the job done. Overall, an excellent experience and will not hesitate to use them again!
