Otto's Masonry

Competitive quote, excellent workmanship, contract was for one wall, but company pointed entire house. Otto's company delivered well beyond expectations, with a price that was lower than two other quotes.

Not only was Otto's quote the best I found, the mason (Idriss? forgive me, but I'm not sure how to spell your name!) who arrived to do the job was thoroughly professional and conscious of details. I had three old, brick basement sills cut out and new concrete ones poured. Great attentions was paid to tuck pointing, and I was invited to go over the entire house before the job was 'officially' complete. The quote given was the price paid, my home is just as neat as before the work was done, and it was completed quickly. I'll hire Otto again when I need some windows bricked to new sizes.

We recently had John from Otto's do some concrete repair and brick relaying on our porch and tuckpointing on the porch and front of the house. Otto provided sage and honest advice (we did less than we thought we had to), prompt efficient service when promised, thorough clean up, and great workmanship. All at a very fair price. We are very happy with the work that Ottos has done for us, and would not hesitate to use them again or recommend them to others.

When I needed a few of the bricks on my house replaced, I was referred to Otto's Masonry. Correspondence was done effectively via e-mail. The mason was knowledgeable, polite, and respectful. Brick replacement and tuck pointing work was completed expeditiously and professionally, with the bonus of a competitive price.

First, I do encourage every one who had used a contractor from HomeStars to write a short note about the accomplished work. It would be very helpful for those who were looking for a trustful and right contractor and would limit they frustration. Second, it would be a needed feedback and eventually thanks to those how was doing good work. We had a crumbled scary brick fence that needed a fixing especially after last winter which contributed to it deterioration significantly. We called several companies to make an assessment and give us an estimate. Some contractors promise to come, but never showed up; some came but never bother to send us an estimate; some other give us a price that was over our expectation and means. A couple give us very close estimates and we ended choosing Otto Masonry, because they were very responsive and flexible to our requirements. The work was done exactly what we expected and even a little beyond what was promise and what was in the contract. The working side was held clean with no messing derbies all over the place. The project was accomplished on time. The final result was and still is very good. The asking price was never changed with no pressure about the payment. I postponed this review for 1 year, just to make sure that the time did not change our satisfaction.

We had our chimney rebuilt and tuckpointing all around the house. The work was professional and Otto and his mason's matched the bricks perfectly on our 100 yr. old home! Even the mortar was matched to blend with the rest of the house. They did a great job and were timely, efficient and friendly. A few neighbours also mentioned how great the work looked. We highly recommend Otto's Masonry for all the above reasons. T&R (Riverdale)

We got Otto's guys to come back twice.
We had tuckpointing done throughout the entire house, the chimney capped, bricking in a milkbox, steel lintels to fix a bad job from before and soldier course on wide windows. Oh, and parging. it was a lot. It did take the mason a long time at our home to do these things, but it was a lot.
The work was decent. I don't know much about masonry (nothing actually), but i do like clean lines and a good aesthetic. This was a very functional job, but perhaps not the best looking.

We liked them enough though to invite them back to do another job - bricking in a window. Which again, was decent.

I would have the back again. thanks guys!

Otto and Tony were extremely helpful and accomodating in getting my chimney rebuilt and extended in a tight time frame. Stuck to original estimate despite unexpected delay that caused his crew to lose a day. In addition he made a recommendation that saved me $350 approx. on the chimney liners. Great work, I recommend Otto highly.

Mortar was breaking off in pieces. Had Otto's break out the remainder and re-mortar a 20 x 10 foot area. They did an excellent job. Reliable and well worth the money.

Otto is a hands on owner and operator, he was in constant communication with us. His team replaced our sidewalk, it looks fantastic, was completed in a timely matter and for a reasonable cost.
