Get matched with top brick or stone tuck pointing pros in Catalina, AZ

"We regionally met AB and Borja Unique Masonry a year ago when someone ran into our wall by the road and needed someone to replace the brick. They did a great job and at that point we started thinking about other things that needed to be done. AB came several times at the end of 2019 to discuss options. We were not able to follow through at that time but asked him for a bid this past April when we were ready. We are so glad he was able to do our projects. AB, the project manager and owner, made artistic recommendations and explained the process and why he did what he did. This is unusual as most contractors do not explain anything and I so appreciated the time he took, his customer service, honesty, and fair prices. The workmen were of the same caliber and took pride in their work, were courteous and cleaned up so well after the work that you would never know that they had been there except for the beautiful end result. Our project was as follows. We had a paver patio and stairs in which the pavers had sunken in and the cement borders had broken. We had retaining walls with cracks and a yard wall with a crack due to a neighboring tree s root. We had missing mortar in some of our block walled house and bricks on one of our decorative were crumbling. Because the color of our pavers no longer existed, in order to fix our patio we needed to take some of the pavers from our walkway which they replaced with beautiful flagstone. AB also had to find brick to match our faded brick on our decorative wall. And a crack had formed in our house wall. There was a variety of skills needed and they did a magnificent job. You d never be able to tell things had been patched and our patio area looks so much better than ever. We would highly recommend Borja Unique Masonry."

"Great. I needed a brick wall along the back of my property. Blue Ribbon built a beautiful wall for me."

"I felt pressured/rushed into signing a contract. I had asked for an estimate, and when the gentleman showed up, he wrote out a contract instead of an estimate. The pricing for the removal of 3 concrete and rock steps, installation of 5 brick steps and 2 handrails was ridiculously high but I wasnâ t given a chance to shop around. The contract didnâ t break down material costs, labor costs or taxes. It was a quick installation of the steps but shoddy work. The bottom step fell apart within the 1st week, causing my 83 yr old stepdad to fall. This company subcontracted for my handrails. There was a complete lack of communication between this company and the rail company. It took over 6 weeks to complete this simple job. . The railings were installed after 4 weeks. While it literally took all day to install the rails, they did turn out quite nice. Also, I was promised replacement bricks in case of chips or breaks in the future and still havenâ t received those. All things considered, I donâ t think I would recommend this company."

"Sergio was great to work with! I have an old adobe house and had some bricks that needed to be patched/repaired. He came out and gave me a fair quote right away and then scheduled the work. He did a great job and was so nice throughout the process. He then came back after he was finished to touch up a few areas. I will definitely call him again when I need this kind of work."

"Great job! I would definitely recommend!!"

"The job went very well. The team showed up as promised and worked each day to get it all done in one shot. There was a lot of demo on this job and then sorting out for re-use of the old bricks. The new bricks job went really well and materials were re-used per our request as much as possible."

"Good work at a fair price. I recommend. Fast reply."

"Initial contact with Acra was in mid November and went relatively smoothly.  My wife and I made our wants known and received a ball park estimate of the cost.   We left a down payment of approximately half the cost for the project as it was needed to start purchasing supplies.  This is normal and was expected. 
Project start date was set for the end of the first week in January to allow for holidays to pass without rushing any of the subcontractors.  The only problem we encountered is that Acra wanted to rush the tear out before any of  the actual installation was really ready.  This made it difficult on my wife and I as we intended to live in the house while the work proceeded.  Consequently we were without any sinks in the house except for the deep sink in the garage for a period of three days.  I believe that the work could have been staggered or compressed so as to prevent this lag time. 
There were six sub contractors involved besides Acra's own tear out and touch up technicians.  All of the subcontractors and the Acra technicians performed admirably.  We were very satisfied with their work.  This involved the following:
-  Electrical: Addition of electrical outlet, changing and addition of lighting fixtures and switching for same.
-  Plumbing: Changing of water heater and addition of hot water recirculating system, Installation of four sinks in the two bathrooms and kitchen, installation of new toilets and new faucets and fixtures in same.
-  Granite suppliers:  Providing three acceptable slabs of 3 cm Creama de Bordeau Brazilian Granite.
-  Granite fabricators:  Measuring, cutting, polishing and installation of counters in kitchen and two bathrooms.
-  Tile installers:  Install back splash in kitchen.
-  Mirror fabricators:  Installation of three custom mirrors in the two bathrooms.
Of all these the only problems we ran into is with the materials supplied by the buyers at Acra as follows.
-   One of the bathroom sinks initially ordered was broken and not noticed until the day it had to be delivered tothe granite fabricators.  This could have caused a major delay but Acra owned up and replaced with better sinks purchased in Tucson.
-   The wire baskets ordered for the kitchen sink were ordered in the wrong size.  This did not cause a delay in the work but is inconvenient for us as the sinks are not protected from scratches while the new baskets arrive.
Considering the magnitude of the project, these delays were relatively miner and cause no real additional inconvenience.
