Get matched with top brick or stone siding: installers or completely replacers in Milaca, MN

"I highly recommend Lenâ s company Trilite. The process of replacing my brick with stone veneer went so smoothly. Since Trilite was the manufacturer and the installer in my project, I was able to choose from a myriad of stone and colors. The quality and workmanship of the masons was above and beyond what I expected. The stone is beautiful and it was all done in a timely manner and at a fair price. For stone veneer this is the place!!"

"We love our new windows, and we would highly recommend the company! Everything from the initial estimate/sales set-up through final installation has been so professional and well-done. We initially reached out a few years ago to get estimates on windows for the entire house (along with a few other companies), and with Craftsmen, we never felt pressured or like anyone wasted our time with an annoying sales pitch. We decided to wait, and we reached back out at the end of 2020 to get updated estimates. They still had all of our information and were very helpful and prompt at getting updated totals. We had some concerns with ordering (as it was in the early days of the pandemic) depending on regional closures or delays, and they were reassuring and flexible with our plan. During the installation process, everyone was so professional. Often with outside contractors, people default communicating with my husband, yet I'm the one coordinating, so it can often be frustrating, but that was absolutely not the case with Craftsmen. Everyone was very kind and respectful no matter who they were talking with. Besides just getting all of our windows replaced, we also had a large wall cut out and a custom window added, which we were a bit nervous how that would go with our stucco, and it turned out beautifully, and it was such a nice relief to know that no matter what - the crew would handle it. It was quite the undertaking and a very large investment from us, but it was so worth it for how beautiful everything looks inside and out and how seamless the process went."

"Mike did a beautiful job matching and replacing my leaning chimney to the roofline. The 100 yr old brick doesn't exist anymore and what he found to come close worked out perfectly. He's very honest ,detailed and really listened to me. He took excellent care to get things done right. Very tidy and even saved my beloved blueberry bush from peril ."

"We used CK Tile & Stone.  They did a wonderful job and went above and beyond in putting things back and even fixing some minor items (like hanging closet doors straight, and replacing hoses on the toilet.)  Chris was great to work with, as well as, his workman. <br />"

"I bid approximately 10 different people across three categories: landscapers, contractors and masons. The landscapers were stumped given it was structural and it was graduated (grew from small to tall). The contractors were very matter of fact as were most of the masons; demo it and build it with this one brick style that they were accustomed to using. Scott came out and was very self-assured as to how he was going to tackle the project and he explained how he was going to do it and why. Prior to this however, on the phone, he sent us to his website to check out all the retaining walls he had previously done, both structural and more for esthetic purposes (my words) I will say. After he explained his approach, he then got out his brick catalog and gave us a couple of options then he would recommend. Then, he saw that we had a large tree nearby and recommended that perhaps we might want to go with a smooth vs. textured stone so that all the sap and other tree droppings wouldn't cling to the brick. This is the type of attention to detail that Scott brings to the project. He was right on budget, his team was very pleasant and very nice, and they were very clean when they were done. I would use them again in a minute. I am not sure that there isn't anything with stone that Scott hasn't done. <br />"

"Kevin and his crew performed A+ work.  I had concerns about water getting behind my wall and frost heave, EZ Masonry came up with a solution and completed the job in one day.  Would absolutely recommend them and if further masonry work is needed they will be my first and only call."

"A little bit rocky at first and it took a good 5 weeks before we able to get our fireplace installed correctly. In Oct. of 2014 we had problems with the pilot light and they had to com e out and service it. We had a crack in the upper housing, which was repaired in 2015. In Sept. of 2016 they had to put in a new module because when we started it up there was no flame. In the end we are very happy with it and Jeff was wonderful to work with, through all the problems."

"Arabella Stone did excellent work. It is absolutely beautiful! They completely rebuilt sections as needed, and replaced nearly all the mortar on the outside of the house. It is now solid and looks wonderful. They also cleaned up the limestone wall in a bathroom basement. We love how it turned out. We would highly recommend Arabella. It was clear when we met Daniel how much he loves working with stone. He is a true craftsman."

"We are very happy with the results of the exterior waterproofing Drew and his crew performed. Drew was the only contractor willing to try to accomplish the waterproofing task by preventing the water intrusion rather than dealing with the water once it was inside the foundation. They removed a 12" by 20 ft section of concrete driveway along the house, excavated a trench to the front yard and installed a "french" style drain along with rock and plastic lining. They also regraded along the front of the house using the same method and connected to the drain line. The entire thing terminates in a rock filled underground pit. It has been eight months since the work was completed and there has been no water intrusion from the fall through the spring. The entire crew was very professional. They took care to not cause any more lawn damage than absolutely necessary and cleaned the driveway almost completely. We were realistic knowing not every spec of dirt would come off without some rain, but they left almost nothing when they left. We will be calling Drew for at least one more project that we are confident will be performed with absolute perfection."

"Unfortunately, fall came late this year, and the leaves didn't fall from the trees in my yard until late November, while the deal closing date was in early November.  I thus contacted the provider after the closing date, and offered to pay more, if needed, to get the job done.  On the plus side, the provider managed to fit in the work at short notice and performed the required work adequately.  On the negative side, he was very hostile in his responding e-mail and in a phone call I made to him, saying things like "this is not a game to me, I am not calling again"; he seemed very upset that he had not gotten an earlier response from me to schedule the service (he had e-mailed twice, in early September) and had called when I wasn't home, long before I was ready to have the work done. I appreciate that he didn't charge extra after the end of the deal date and made a special effort to get the work done quickly, before the temperature dropped, but I would not use this service again because of his hostility in our e-mail and phone interactions.  It doesn't make sense to have my gutters cleaned before the leaves fall off the trees in my yard, and I prefer to work with a provider who is more comfortable in being flexible about scheduling the work."
