Avenue Road Masonry

Greg and Dan did an amazing job. Above and beyond in every way. They matched the mortar color perfectly, and if it wasn't right they chipped it out and redid it. I even had them replace previous repointing that was a terrible color match and filled to the face of the brick (not brushed/raked as it should be). Excellent work, would hire again.

Avenue Road Masonry team was amazing! I would definitely recommend them for any masonry work you need. Chris was great at coordinating everything and came by to make sure when the team started we were all good. We had a chimney repair, parging and replaced our window sills. Chris, Brian and Daniel were professional and made sure they took care of the area around where they worked with tarps. They knew we love our garden and made sure our plants were covered or out of the way. The chimney repair was so good couldn’t even tell it was repaired! They cleaned up after as well so all in all a great experience! Avenue Road Masonry is a the company to go with! Thanks Chris and team!

Our job was multifaceted requiring brickwork, parking, grading, stonework, and concrete pouring. Ave Rd Masonry had it all, at top quality! The best part was Robert, our job coordinator, who orchestrated all the trades, including some external contractors so that the job ran like clockwork. Robert was an excellent communicator and I enjoyed his friendly regular updates that enabled me to manage the job while not even being on site much of the time!! Great value, I would highly recommend!!!

This is the second job we have had done by Avenue Road Masonry. Absolutely great job. Chris, Robert, Mark and Leeroy are a professional skilled team. My husband and I are so pleased and would not use anyone else. We give them our highest recomeendation.

Excellent, timely work booked through Robert. We had approx 20 bricks + mortar replaced around our garage. Very happy with results. No surprises, estimate was respected. Would highly recommend.

Team was prompt and professional in their work, making sure any customer feedback was dealt with in a timely manner.

They are true professionals in every sense of the word. They sent two separate crews and they both did an outstanding job. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this company to my friends.

Avenue Road Masonry go above and beyond. They are prompt, courteous and professional. The approximate cost was for a chimney rebuild.

Robert their project manager is the kind of contractor you want to work with: courteous, friendly, reliable and kind. The workmanship is exemplary and we were very impressed. Avenue Road were called to return within two months as we experienced tree damage to our chimney. We were so very impressed with their responsiveness and thankful that they did not charge for this. Mark took great pride in his work.

Avenue Road Masonry is a very professional, honest and friendly company. We used the company to do several jobs over the course of several days. The results are wonderful.

We live in an Edwardian semi-detached and, in conjunction with our neighbour, had a shared non-functional chimney repaired. Fourteen courses of bricks were removed, several bricks were replaced in the chimney that remained, and venting and a new cap were installed. The chimney, which looked like one more storm would keel it over, is now extremely sturdy and handsome. It is a beautiful feature of our 3rd floor deck.

Another mutual house project was the repair of the base of a shared porch pillar. Bricks in some of the bottom courses were badly crumbled. These, as well as a few below grade, were replaced and the 4 above grade courses were parged all around the pillar (even under the porch!) to protect the pillar for years to come.

Lastly, our own front porch pillar was in a horrible state as it is in a location which is lashed by inclement weather in winter and spring. It required 22 bricks replaced, complete 360 degree tuck-pointing and a bottom parging which again went under the porch. It looks like a million bucks.

Greg and Dan (the masons) worked with care. They are skilful and meticulous. We were concerned that the repairs would stick out like a sore thumb against our old bricks. Bricks removed from the chimney were used for the front pillars as well as old bricks from the company’s yard. For each of the three projects, mortar was stained differently to match the old remaining mortar. Tuck pointing was very neat and the parging very smooth with sharp corners. Greg and Dan were always punctual, stayed later than usual to finish steps in the projects, always tidied up well and were easy and pleasant to speak with.

The owner and project manager of Avenue Road Masonry are also to be commended. Chris, the owner, was our initial contact. He addressed all of our concerns (and technical questions) about the various projects in a direct and knowledgable manner and emailed photos of pillar parging which we, at first, were not entirely keen about. His quote was fair. We had interviewed 2 other companies but felt most comfortable with his approach and price. Rob, the project manager, viewed the work in progress several times and touched base with us to make sure we were happy with developments. He kept us abreast daily about weather conditions and work stoppage (as it was spring, there were a couple of inclement days with no work). He took good care of us.

Needless to say, we are delighted with the completed projects and our very positive experience with Avenue Road Masonry from start to finish. It is a good feeling not only to have work on one’s home done well but also to have that work done by people who one likes. Thanks Avenue Road Masonry for a terrific experience.

Too notch customer service. They contacted me at each stage and made sure I was happy with the job. They poured a slab and it was not exactly what I wanted and they fixed it. They made sure I was happy with it. Plus they have reasonable prices.
