Reinstalled front porch steps which were loose

It was a pleasure dealing with this company. They were responsive and reliable and inspired confidence in their work. They removed a lot of the old material and replaced it with new, correct mortar when reinstalling loose stones on the front steps and porch. Jean Luc and Mohammed were very polite and pleasant while doing the work.
They also inspected my chimney and replaced mortar where necessary.
I intend using them in the future should I need to have masonry work done.

repointing of bricks

Jason did excellent work, re-setting a couple or so bricks and replacing the mortar between other bricks on the lower part of a pillar beside our veranda. He also cleaned up thoroughly, both on the pillar itself and the ground surrounding it. I was especially impressed that he wore professional safety gear when using an angle grindera ventilator with the proper filter and ear muffs to protect his hearing.

Parging and Stone Repairs

We have experienced an excellent service from Rene's team. The first time I contracted Buildstrong Masonry was in 2019 where the front stone arch at the porch was loose. From then on, we have been contracting his team until now. Rene was very thorough on his estimate and the price was definitely reasonable for the scope of work. His team did work around the house such as parging, repair window sill and any cracks, hole, broken or missing joints on stone or brick. The work to maintain and repair the cement, brick and stone work on an older house is not simple. Keeping the look and quality and even returning the finish and structure to original or correcting it shows true mastery of the trade. We are really happy with Rene and his team's work. They finished their work to perfection.

We see Rene more than a vendor because of the trust and respect we have with his work for the past 4 years.

We would highly recommend Buildstrong Masonry for any repairs.

All the best to Rene and his team. Dont stop sharing advice either. It really help us assess the right approach to the job.
See you again in our next project!

replacing a few 100-year-old bricks

I spoke with 3 different people from Build Strong Masonry. They are organized, professional, and on time. I made a small electronic deposit (mid-June) which put me on the waiting list and work started in a reasonable time (early August). Nice process.

Our guy was great. He showed up on time, was a really hard worker, tidy, very polite and cheerful. He showed me his progress and called attention to when an area looked tricky. The wall is much improved, the bricks a good match, and the quote accurate.

I highly recommend working with Buildstrong Masonry

Quality work!

They did amazing work on replacing my damaged brick that was spalling and generally not nice to look at. While there were some delays relating to weather conditions and air quality, once Renes team started the work, they did an amazing job. They even came back to address some concerns we had been having and quickly resolved the issue. Buildstrong offers quality masonry work and good customer service. Ill definitely be using their services for upcoming projects and repair!

Stone repair and brickwork

We were very impressed with the work done for us and found the company wonderful to deal with throughout the whole process. Excellent communication at all times, both with the head of the company and the very diligent and skilled crew. The replacing of crumbling bricks on an entrance pedestal was amazingly well done, as was the stonework. Ours was a job with a couple of major tasks and many smaller ones - all completed most satisfactorily and within the estimated time. We are very pleased with the result.
