Masonry, tuckpointing and relocating side entrance door
Dominic did a great job looking after all work related to our recent renovation project (2015), which required masonry work.
Being a detailed oriented Professional Engineer I am known to be quite obsessive when it comes to finished details and appearance so I tend to try to do a lot of things myself to ensure I will be happy with the finish. I have to say that I was very pleased that I was able to let go and trust Dominic as he met all my expectations.
Dominic is a hard working honest gentleman. He agreed to undertake the work at a fair and competitive hourly rate. He took the time to explain in advance what he would be doing, answering any/all questions I had related to the work.
When undertaking the work he paid special attention detail to ensure a good and neat finished appearance, as though it was work he was doing for his own home. At the end of every day he was sure to thoroughly clean all areas where he had worked.
Dominic clearly has a lot of experience in his field and I will be hiring him again later this year for a few other smaller projects around our home.
This will include relaying bricks in the area where the side door was moved (as soon as I can find bricks that closely match the existing, which I discovered is not an easy task). Domenic has been kind enough to assist me with this by going to several suppliers he is connected with.
I already have and will continue to highly recommend Dominic to anyone requiring any masonry work.
The work he did for us included:
1. Repairing a section of masonry wall that was replaced with a rebar reinforced poured concrete wall section to support a post carrying a load bearing beam (shown in photos).
2. Removing an existing side entrance door & window and moving he door in the previous location of the side window (shown in photos).
3. Making a new door opening to access the garage from our entrance hallway. (shown in photos).
I would be happy to answer any questions anyone may have about Dominic and his work. I can be reached at:
