Serving the Tri-State Area, Shamrock Chimney will provide you with a dedicated approach to ensure your chimney is kept clean and safe. Our team provides chimney solutions for every problem, protecting homes from dangers of leaking chimneys and flues.
"I had a terrible experience with this so-called "special promotion" for a routine cleaning that ended up costing me $1,150. The technicians who came to my house were friendly and professional, but the real issue lies with their so-called "project manager" Danielle and the rest of the company. The work was incomplete, and when I requested an invoice and pictures, I received the pictures immediately but had to wait days for the invoice. When it finally came, it was clearly doctored?showing work that wasn't completed and pricing that didn?t match what I was told. I had to call them five times to speak with her, who was unhelpful and clearly didn't know how to do her job. The invoice listed charges for installation and chimney caps, which were supposed to be free according to the technicians. When I raised this concern, they denied everything and were extremely dismissive. To make matters worse, I even sent them a video of the technicians confirming the free items (captured by my Ring d"

"Outstanding service and value. Prostar Waterproofing and Construction were one of the most responsive and professional businesses I've come across. From start to finish, a pleasure to work with. They are extremely responsive, and will always follow through to ensure the customer is being taken care of. Calls, questions, estimates - all of this is done on time, as promised. Paul, who did the consultation, was extremely knowledgeable and did not try to upsell anything. The crew that came out were professional, and maintained a clean working area. Dust control was excellent. Their prices are very reasonable, and they will not nickel and dime. They will work with you throughout the project. Quality work, honest people. So far the system they put in place has been working as advertised. Would highly recommend this company."

"Lorenzo Salvioli was incredibly efficient, responsive, professional, and straightforward in his communications and the work he and his team performed. He came out first to meet with me and view the area we wanted to repave. He advised me on materials and where I might purchase them. He returned to measure the specific area and gave me an accurate count of how many pavers and how many thin stones to order. He predicted how long the project would take. The project came out beautifully. He and his team were very careful with the plants around the patio area that was repaved with porcelain pavers. We appreciated their care with our lawn and landscaping. They were clean and methodical in preparing the area to be repaved, paving it, and cleaning up afterwards. The outcome far exceeded my expectations - and that's a lot because I am a perfectionist. Lorenzo is an honest, highly skilled, and highly experienced mason and businessman. I recommend him to anyone. The fact that he consistently did as he said he would do (beginning with calling when he said he'd call, coming by when he said he would, and supplying a proposal when he said he would) set him apart from other potential masons I interviewed. His proposal was detailed, specific, and described exactly what he did. He also was reliable in following up with the paver provider and making sure the right materials had been ordered and starting when he said he would). Part of the beauty of the newly paved patio is the good feeling I have about Lorenzo's having done it. It is such a pleasure to work with such a professional and honest person. He absolutely knows his materials and the machines used to cut and apply it. I would trust him with any project involving masonry -- and probably beyond that scope were his business to take him there."

"I had a great experience with this company. They did several projects for me and I was happy with all of them. What I most appreciated was that they gave me the days they would be there and they showed up. They got each project done 1-2-3 rather than stretching each one out for weeks with countless excuses as contractors often do. I would highly recommend GMT Masonary."

Masons charge between $70 and $110 per hour. A mason may have a minimum service fee ranging from $80 to $300. Most bricklayers offer free estimates and charge only if you proceed with the project. This clear pricing model assures that professionals inspect your property before beginning work and charge based on your project’s actual requirements.
A professional repointing lasts 20 to 30 years without maintenance and extends up to 50 years when maintained diligently. This process protects your brickwork using high-quality materials that ensure lasting performance and durability. Consistent upkeep preserves its strength and appearance, providing enduring protection and enhancing your home’s overall structural integrity for decades.
You know your house needs repointing when you notice clear signs such as cracked, flaking, or missing mortar and visible discoloration on the brick surfaces. Additional indicators include loose bricks, water damage, and gaps between the brick joints that compromise the overall integrity of the structure. Addressing these issues promptly protects your investment and sustains the durability and curb appeal of your home.
A house needs repointing to preserve both its structural integrity and visual appeal. Mortar acts as a vital bonding agent that holds the bricks securely together. When the mortar deteriorates, it exposes the structure to water infiltration and further decay, increasing the risk of costly repairs. Repointing stops decay and reinforces the exterior, ensuring long-term protection.
