Get matched with top brick or stone siding: repairers or partially replacers in Harrisburg, PA

"We would highly recommend J&E Masonry. They repointed the brick and stone for our 150 yr. old home, it turned out beautifullly. Edgar is professional and meticulous, he takes pride in his work and truly cares about his customers."

"I had gotten a previous estimate that started out at $3500 and that only covered two sides of the house and no cement work. This person also told me I needed to have 50-60 bricks replaced, plus, they would need to erect scaffolding. When I bulked at the price, he then said he could probably get away with 10 to 20 bricks and reduced the price to $3100. I still was not happy, so he asked me if I was a senior, which I was, and he wanted to know if I had any one in the military. I told him my son was a full-bird colonel so he reduced the price to around $2800 but told me if I signed that day, he would do it for $2500. I ended up signing. This was on a Friday afternoon, but it definitely bothered me very much that I didn't get another estimate, so at 9 o'clock on Monday morning I exercise my right to rescind the sale within three business days. That is when I saw Randy's name and his reviews on Angie's list and decided to call him. He came out two days later and gave me an estimate. I did not mention how much the other company had told me it would cost, but I did tell him that they said I needed bricks replaced and scaffolding. Randy looked over the entire house including the back of the house which the first guy didn't do. He said I had quite a few places with missing mortar on the back and showed me where they were. I then asked him if he would be able to repair the broken cement on the steps. He told he could do that. The front steps were particularly bad. He also said he did not see anywhere where bricks needed to be replaced and no need for scaffolding. The highest spot was about five and half feet off the ground. Imagine my surprise when his quote was $1400 for everything. I could not believe it. After I got that estimate, it rained for two weeks straight. The first day there was no rain, Randy and his helper, James, were on the job. I think they did a tremendous job! The cement repairs look absolutely great and the mortar matches up so well that you can not tell where the repairs are, unless you look very closely. But it doesn't stand out at all. As far Randy's character, I found him to be a deeply religious man, who I don't think would cheat anybody out of a dime. I am so glad that I got another estimate and that I called Randy Inch."

"Excellent repair of a damaged brick mailbox. Quick response time. Easy communication. Reasonable price. Highly recommend!"

"These people are just about the hardest working folks I have ever seen! I have used their services several times for chimney sweeping, installing a chimney liner, removing and replacing rake boards (in blazing hot sun), and painting hard-to-reach parts of a four story house. They are always cheerful, never complain and keep at a job till it is done and done right. And they find time if there is an emergency to come to help.Thanks Goe and Hector. Pat"

"Ron did a great job on this complete home refresh. It was nice to have a single point of contact for roofing, windows, siding, stucco, painting, and garage doors. Even though this project took several months to complete, Ron did a good job of keeping us informed."

"Tyler and Brandon were both Profesional and courteous when repairing my chimney they walked me through the process and helped me understand the value of what they could offer me. Looks great! would definitely recommend hiring them for any masonry needs."

"Fireplace was fine (OPPOSITE of what I had been told by another chimney sweep).  Oil burner side ...not so good.  Flue was heavily cracked and deteriorated.  Entire flue pieces laying at base.  Since this could be a carbon monoxide hazard and I quite often have small children in the house, I didn't think it was anything I should let go unresolved (although I was NOT anticipating spending a couple of thousand dollars at the time).
Bottom line:  New stainless steel liner put in.  Liner secured and resealed top and bottom.  New cap installed - and cracked top cement crown on chimney was replaced with a rubberized product.  Warranty on liner is transferable with the house when/if sold.
While I was not thrilled about hitting my emergency fund for something that you can't SEE, obviously it was important to get it done.  I was eligible for a Senior discount (am I the only one THRILLED to be older when a Senior discount is offered)?  You hit a certain age ... every penny saved helps.
Jon Paul was wonderful.  Not a pushy sales person.  Straight and to the point.  Explained everything in detail.  Personable.  My 4 year old great niece was with me for an overnight visit and she immediately took to him.  (Pay attention to the little ones ~ they're very good judges of character). 
I will recommend them at every opportunity and call them again if the need arises.  Five Stars from me!!!"

"Darrell showed when he said he would,, was courteous and professional, and did an outstanding job repairing an interior brick wall. We are completely satisfied and would highly recommend him. Thank you for a great experience."

 Gary was prompt, pleasant, and professional. He did an excellent job installing a new storm door I had already purchased. He also replaced a broken window pane and a porch hand rail that has been damaged by a persistent woodpecker. I certainly recommend him.

"Not only are Simmers and Sons experts Masons they are accomplished artists as well. They work they performed was the highest quality. They take great pride in their work and see to the finest of details. From the very beginning of the project to the very end they were in constant communication as to the progress of the project. We actually went to the quarry to pick out the Bluestone for our patio with them which was a nice feature. They also spent time with us after the project was done to explain how to take care of our investment. They also keep in contact with us after the project was done to make sure their work is up to our standards. This was a very pleasant customer experience and would hire them again for any other masonry work we would need to have done."
