Straight Up Masonry

We were looking for a company to do masonry work at a project in Riverdale and came across Straight Up Masonry on a number of searches.

After getting estimates from 5 contractors, we decided to go with theirs - and truly couldn’t be happier with the outcome.

The work was scheduled and completed as planned with communication throughout the process.

They repaired over 200 bricks on this 100+ year old home, created a new opening for a large patio door (which involved custom steel lintels and pouring concrete thresholds), re-bricked windows...quite a bit of work but they handled it all.

I was most impressed with the fact that they kept the site clean - even cleaning up after themselves each day even when they were coming back the next day. True pros.

I’d have zero hesitations in recommending their services.

For the record, they weren’t the lowest of the 5 estimates but were also not even close to the highest. A fair price and great work.

Look forward to working with them again on the next one.

Everyone at Straight Up was easy to deal with. Work done on time. Competitive estimate and quick clean up. As far as I can tell, the work was done very well.

So pleased with how this went. There was no urging to do more than was necessary. They provided excellent quality work, reasonable, nice people, and were easy to communicate with. I’ve already recommended them to others!

Tony, Crystal and their crew are indeed straight up - our experience was very positive. The communication was timely, and polite. The crew did a great job and here's the real test of a reliable service provider - we had a small follow up issue and it was addressed very quickly and professionally. You're in good hands with Straight Up.

My chimney was crumbling so I had estimates done to repair it. I had two other estimates and decided to have Straight up Masonry do the job.
It was the right decision. Not only did they do a very good job on the chimney but also repaired the chipped bricks along my living room window for no cost at all. They did a fine job of cleaning up of the debris on our lawn. They also clean up the mortar haze on our pavers.
My contact person with the company is Crystal and she is a very pleasant person to deal with.
All in all they did a great job.... I will not hesitate to recommend them.

Our house badly needed cement parging all around the base. We hired Straight Up Masonry based on the excellent reviews and were not disappointed. Tony clearly explained what would be done, when our turn came. We were happy the work was done a week before we expected. David and Nick were very professional, punctual, polite, pleasant, hard-working and they cleaned up nicely after the work was completed. This is the best our house has looked, since we bought it 5 years ago. Thanks, guys!

The entire Straight Up Masonry team (from Crystal in the office, to the work crews) did a terrific job with our projects. The sidewalk replacement crew suggested and implemented changes to the configuration of the sidewalk, which eliminated trip hazards making for a cleaner looking, and safer walkway. Couldn't be happier!

I needed some last minute masonry work and found these guys online. They came to see the job before they sent a quote and Crystal was amazing to deal with. Everything was communicated to me and the job was completed as promised. Their professionalism was top notch.
If I have any masonry needs I will definitely come back to them.

A few bricks on the top couple of rows of our chimney were starting to flake off, along with some cracked bricks and a cracked flue that needed replacing. The starting date was delayed (due to border closures) while Tony was trying to find matching bricks. Two employees arrived on the scheduled date, erected the scaffolding, rebuilt the chimney, removed the scaffolding and cleaned up the site, all in one day. After an inspection, they also ended up replacing the top of both flues, as they were crumbling below the cap. I did have to do a small touch up on the chalking around the flashing, but other than that, the work looks great, the employees were professional and friendly, and would recommend this company

We were very impressed with the workmanship of David and his assistant Nicholas. They arrived exactly on time, were very polite, and were meticulous in taking out the damaged bricks and replacing them with well matched bricks. When the work was done they totally cleaned the debris from our property and also made sure the neighboring property was free of any dust from their work.
We would highly recommend this company. Ask for David to do your job!
