Get matched with top masons in Bellwood, IL

"Chaffee Contruction was out to house quickly and reviewed the situation of Bricks to be removed and cut by our fireplace - was ready to due job at a fair price and the got the job. next day his crew was out to house and did an Excellent job of what was needed."

"Chuy and his crew came and were able to completely refurbish the worn out stone at the front of my home. It’s a complete upgrade, and the home has great curb appeal. Prices are very reasonable, and the team is very friendly and professional. Great experience."

"The contractor was very professional. He was on time and his communication was consistent. It was very easy working with Fernando. He did the job and it looks great. I hope that the bricks repair work he did last longer."

"Good. It took some back and forth to get the contract language the way I wanted it, but after that all went well. Alex is very responsive and professional. The masons did good work. They were not shy about replacing spalled common bricks. They grinded the old mortar to the depth as stated in contract. No shortcuts were taken. It was obvious these masons took pride in their work. Something that is getting rarer these days. I pointed out some smeared mortar on bricks and they cleaned it up right away. New bricks and mortar match the old well. They cleaned up after themselves. This is not a bargain handyman cash job. You see lots of shoddy tuckpointing in my neighborhood and it's sad. The fast cash guys don't grind the mortar down enough and the new mortar falls off after a few years. You'll pay more at AAA-1 but you get what you pay for. Masonry is an art and AAA-1 demonstrates that."

"Carlos was very communicative and went over and above what he agreed to do. He did a beautiful job with the Tuckpointing and kept me informed all through the process. He also masterfully restored some broken parts of the stone stairs. Definitely recommend"

"The sealing of the patio was done about 3 weeks after the patio was done. I was not pleased with the sealing and they said there was nothing they could do about it. They said the sealing would take an entire day, but it only took him a couple of hours and it cost me $350.00, he initially told me it would cost $300.00.

"After the last two storms in June and July, our chimney started to leak rainwater into the brick over the fireplace and into the fireplace. I did an online review and found that Top Hat Chimney Service had one of the highest ratings, so I called for an appointment. Anthony responed quickly and we agreed upon an inspection date. He and Lou arrived, inspected our chimney, took photos and made his recommendations. He responded to all of my questions and we agreed on a repair plan. Incidentally, he checked our other chmney and made recommendations for it because it also needed some preventive repairs. We also decided to have him install a gas fireplace. We were extremely pleased that he could begin and complete the work on that day, since another storm was expected within 24-48 hours. Anthony and Lou did an outstanding job with the repairs and installation of the gas fireplace! Anthony graciously did a couple of extra things with the other chimney and we are especially appreciative!"

"Ed, the owner and a very pleasant man, came out and estimated the work.  The price was reasonable.  A week later the crew arrived about noon, worked very hard, and finish the chimney repair by six o'clock, including cleanup.  When I returned from a vacation, they came back, removed the old basement window, installed the glass block unit, and cleaned up in about 90 minutes.  The workers were friendly, efficient, and considerate of the inside and outside of the house.  Ed came by himself to collect and make sure I was satisfied.

"We ended up converting our old, unsafe woodburning fireplace to a gasburning one -- and they did it in less than 2 hours, along with some repairs to the chimney cap, etc. We hadn't been able to use the fireplace fro 4 years, so I am thrilled to have it back and better than ever."

"Chimney destroyed by lightening strike! Rob and crew removed all debris, built new chimney, inspected 30 yr. old chimney shaft and suggested liner(for safety and code compliance) .installed new damper, cleaned up entire area inside and out. great work, very courteous, fair price. I would recommend them for any type of brick/chimney service!"
