Tuck pointing and water proofing

Chris and his crew went above and beyond to deal with our roof, loose bricks, all the tuck pointing, capped chimneys, cleaned eaves and gutters and helped me understand other roofing issues and why e have them. Right from the first point of contact, Avenue road masonry was stellar. I highly recommend them

Repair of our masonry stone wall at the front of our house.

We had a leak in our garage, that was caused by cracks in our masonry wall.
Chris the owner of the company came out and took a look, he was very thorough as to what needed to be done and sent me a detail quote as to what the cost of the repairs would be.
His crew was on time and very professional. They took their time and made sure everything was done properly. Chris also assured me that their work is guaranteed in the event any issues came up.
We liked the fact that we were dealing with a company that is established and has been around.
Chris was available through email or phone and easy to get a hold at any given time, willing to answer any questions or concerns that we had.
It was truly a pleasure working with him and his crew.

Replace concrete porch

Our small concrete porch was sinking on one side pushing on a retaining wall so it needed replacing. We obtained several quotes and decided on Avenue Road after dealing with Chris. He arrived on time and gave us a great explanation of the work his crew would carry out. We were impressed with his professionalism and his price. His price was lower than most...we went with him over a slightly lower quote because of his attention to detail in outlining the work his crew would do. We also liked the fact we were dealing with an established company. We felt strongly that we could trust Chris to do a good job for us.

A 3 man crew, led by Robert, showed up on time and spent the better part of 2 days removing the old porch, installing forms and pouring concrete. Robert checked with us with each step to make sure we were happy with step heights etc. The work was hampered by cold weather and some rain but the crew worked through it all. They took the time to finish the porch with detailed edging and a brushed on pattern in the surface that allowed for better footing on rainy days.

The work was done on time, on budget, and the final result was perfect. I would recommend Avenue Road Masonry for any job, big or small. I've dealt with many contractors over the years for projects around my home and I would put Chris, Robert and the crew at the top of the list. We are very satisfied with the work from start to finish.

Window Sill Replacement

We recently had all the window sills replaced on our 25 year old home due to brick deterioration as well as fixing the brick around the dryer vent. Chris was honest and straightforward with the quote provided. He also promised no sub contracting on his jobs which is a common occurrence in the masonry industry. He promised the job would be done in 2 days and the team delivered on this promise. They worked hard and were efficient and ensured the property was cared for while doing the job and ensured they cleaned up when finished. We are very happy and the house looks awesome with the new window slabs. I highly recommend this company if you require masonry work on your home!

Chimney Rebuild

Did work as quoted, no muss, no fuss. Very professional crew and great followup. Would definitely recommend. My chimney was original to the house and needed to be rebuilt. Avenue Road was able to rebuild the chimney in two days -- it was a challenging job because my house is very close to my neighbour's and we did not have permission to use the neighbour's roof to access the chimney. The crew were able to complete the job without a scaffold, and did so without complaint.

Masonry touch up job

I found Avenue Road Roofing and Masonry ( Robert Grantham) a very professional company to deal with. From the quote, to the job to the inspection post the job, they always exceeded my expectations. There was also excellent communication from their staff on timing of arrival and an explanation of any issue.Nothing was a problem or too much to attend to. I strongly recommend using this company.

Re-building a cinder-block, brick veneered retaining wall

This was a complicated curved wall to re-build. The wooden deck butting up to this wall, had to be partial removed along with a staircase. Once the deck and staircase were removed, a trench (about 3 ft wide x 6 ft deep x about 18 feet long) was dug to allow access to the wall, down to its foundation. This took about 8 working days and was spread out by a few days due to rain. The earth from the trench was placed on a large tard on the back lawn. The wall was re-built in exactly the same complicated curves as the original wall, and to the exact original height to allow re-use of the lattice wall parts that were installed on the concrète cap of the original wall.
These guys (Rob, Ron, Kevin and Marvin) worked together very harmoniously and quite frankly they were a pleasure to have on site. I highly recommend then to anyone who has masonary work to be done. I would give them a rating of 11 stars out of 10!

Fill in an window opening with new brick

We covered over a window and filled in the exterior with brick. The work was completed expertly....brick and mortar matches the original perfectly. The workers arrived on time, were respectful of the neighbours (scaffolding was required), pleasant and did a great job cleaning up the site at the end of the day!

Chimney repair, Tuckpointing

I highly recommend Avenue Road Masonry. From quote to job completion, the team was wonderful. We hired them to repair one chimney and they did such a great job that we hired them again to repair the 2nd chimney and to tackle the long neglected job of tuck pointing our home. Chris quickly provided a very competitive quote. His team of Tristan and Sean were incredibly respectful, hardworking and diligent. They went beyond my expectations of the job and did not leave until they cleaned up the whole site. I am very pleased and grateful for the great job they did. I fully recommend the whole team.
