Get matched with top brick or stone fireplace installers in Buffalo Grove, IL

"Olsen Tuckpointing Company did a brilliant job of cleaning & tuckpointing our 91-year-old brick bungalow. We are delighted with the results and highly recommend Olsen if you need any kind of brickwork done. It wasn't a huge job, but with the home being as old as it is, we were concerned about getting it done right. The brick exterior had quite a few old mortar patches and some washed-out sections, and over the years the walls had collected a wide assortment of paint stains, hardware hangers and old screw holes. The textured, tan brick also looked pretty dingy, although we weren't sure how much was the original color and how much might be accumulated dirt. The attached pictures show the after & before of dull brown bricks cleaned to a warm, clean gold. I didn't take closeups of the repairs, but I am impressed by how seamlessly the new work blends in with the older mortar. Everyone was friendly, knowledgeable, prompt, and professional, and I have only good things to say about them all. The estimator was able to come out quickly after the initial contact, he did a comprehensive walk-though, and he provided a clear, reasonable, and detailed estimate in a timely fashion--along with an explanation of the whole process from start to finish, so we would know what to expect. The office staff was great about getting things scheduled and making sure we knew when the crews would be showing up, the crews introduced themselves on arrival, and they were all friendly, careful, and incredibly skilled. We are 100% pleased as can be & will certainly be calling Olsen Tuckpointing when next we need any masonry work performed."

"Anthony and Brandon were excellent, extremely professional and knowledgeable! Anthony and Brandon repaired our chimney and installed a new damper and cap and beautiful new logs in under 2 hours! Both men were very friendly and answered all our questions. We couldn't be more excited about our new fireplace and cannot wait to show it off! We highly recommend A-1 Safety Chimney Service and Anthony and Brandon, they exceeded our expectations and we couldn't be happier!! Thank you Anthony and Brandon and A-1 Safety!!!"

"Ben and Chase did an excellent job in cleaning our three fireplaces. They were extremely thorough, gave great explanations of what they were doing, highlighted different areas that still needed attention that we could do either that day or wait in the future. Very easy to deal with. Great job guys."

"The owner Eric came out personally to inspect and install the Fireplace Insert. This is my second year with the unit and I couldn't be more pleased. All the staff was very pleasant. I would definitely hire again."

"The estimator, Mirek Duda, measured twice (so his guys would only have to cut once), and the installers arrived on time. They were very professional, taking great pains to make my countertops looked perfect. I had asked for the piece cut out for the sink to use as a cutting board, and the guys at New Stone Design agreed. Unfortunately, they forgot the cutting board, and were short one small backsplash piece (of less than 1 sq. ft.). They agreed to return in "a day or two," but I had to wait more than two weeks and four or five follow-up calls for that to occur. Mirek eventually had a new installer bring the cutting board and the backsplash. He arrived exactly as agreed, so all was forgiven. I am very pleased with my new Quartz countertops. The price was right, and the quality is top notch. I would recommend New Stone Design to all in need of new countertops."

"They really did a good job. They replaced 300 bricks. I wanted to have them come back but I couldn't reach them."

"They made sure the ground was even. They let me watch and answered any questions I had. They upgraded the stones and were very professional throughout the whole process. Even the owner of the company supervised the job from start to finish. They were great all around. I would highly recommend."

"Andy, the owner, came out and carefully assessed the damage and provided me with a very competitive estimate. I had a few other estimates, but I chose Nyberg Exteriors because of: 1). Andy's experience, professionalism and integrity. 2). The excellent rating here on Angie's List 3). Nyberg is a recognized as Professional Installer by CertainTeed (manufacturer of roof materials) Andy's communication throughout the process was exemplary, and I wish all my experiences with contractors went as efficiently. Andy came out to show us a number of samples, and we decided on one that looked good and scheduled the install for a few days later. The work group arrived promptly on the day of the install, and rang the bell to let us know that work was starting. The work crew conducted themselves very professionally throughout the entire install. They worked tirelessly from early morning to late evening to ensure things were done. I never had the impression that things were being rushed. They went out of their way to fix a gutter that was previously damaged by another company, and replaced several sheets of rotting out plywood. A previous mess of tar and shingles near my chimney was fixed and cleaned up by the crew, and it looks great now. The roof vents were replaced, and everything looked just right with the roofing shingles. Clean-up was exceptional. Really the only way I knew they were there was due to a small bit of shingle in the odd place. I was careful to examine the driveway afters, and did not find a single nail laying on the ground. The end result is a fantastic looking roof. I only wish the rest of my house looked as nice as the roof does. I plan to have Andy and his crew back out next year to help with some of those need changes. I understand now why Nyberg is so highly rated, and I am very happy to add my name to the extensive list of satisfied customers."

"Gus was able to accommodate service request with short notice. Came on time and went to work.
Came back to re-work the GFCI installed in the kitchen after I found that other outlets connected to the GFCI were not functioning. Got refund for the time spent on this portion of the work after he informed me that I will need an electrician to take a look.

"We contracted 41 North Builders after our architect received bids from four other companies. They were the lowest bid, and after meeting John, he was very flexible and allowed us to buy our own finishes to save money. We made alot of changes along the way, which probably pushed back some of the work. John was great at keeping us informed of the progress (as we couldn't be on-site), and overall, we were very happy with the end-result. I would highly recommend 41 North Builders for small or large jobs."
