Get matched with top brick or stone siding: installers or completely replacers in Oak Lawn, IL

"Bricks along one side of our attached garage fell from an outside wall after a car struck a corner of the house next to the garage. Not only brick, but also the wood underlay, needed replacement. I requested some estimates on my own, but estimates from those recommended by Robert seemed most reasonable, and I chose them. Once those steps had been completed, Robert's Masonry completed the last step of replacing the outside layer of brick next to the garage door and also extending partway along the outside wall. I definitely would select Robert's Masonry and Repair for any masonry project. Not only was he professional and knowledgeable, but he also kept us informed every step of the way."

"Olsen has twice replaced the mortar on our patio steps. The first time work was completed in less than two hours, which seemed quick considering the amount of steps and price charged. About 12 months later the mortar began to crack and fall out again. Olsen completed the second repair as part of their warranty on work completed. Update: Fast forward another year, and the mortar is cracking and falling out again. Upon further investigation it was determined the problem was with the original installation of steps five years earlier by builder. Given that the original cracking started to appear two years after installation by builder, Olsen should have known this was not a normal tuckpointing job since that is their business and expertise, especially when they had to come out and redo their work under a warranty guarantee. Ultimately had to have stones removed completely and installed again with different mortar and adhesive. Olsen did not do this work as their bid was 25% more than other bid I received. I would potentially hire Olsen again, but would do my own due diligence on the potential project and not rely on Olsen for figuring things out."

"Can't say enough good things about our experience with AAA-1 Masonry & Tuckpointing. We had two holding walls with brick that was deteriorating. They power washed to identify which bricks needed to be removed and swapped out those bricks with new ones. In addition they replaced the capstones on the two walls with larger capstones to provide the walls more protection from the elements. Everything was sealed and completed flawlessly. The crew was experienced and professional. Since the work was done this summer, our walls don't even get wet from rain! We are so grateful for the expert repair but also the guidance that replacing the capstones would provide more of a long term solution. Highly recommend these guys for your masonry needs."

"I contacted JRG to repair damaged ceiling in my building. They responded quickly and completed the repair in one day. They did a fantastic job and also installed a handrail. The price was very reasonable and I’m completely satisfied with the work they performed. I would highly recommend them."

"Chimney working correctly so nothing was accomplished in regards to the downdraft. I did have the firebox repainted and the outer brick sealed."

"I just hired Edmar to replace a glass block window in our brick house with a more modern double hung window, and they did a great job! I've also hired them in the past to rebuild our parapet and replace other old windows and the work is always great. They're easy to coordinate schedules with and the quality of work is top notch. I'll definitely be hiring them again for any future masonry projects."

"Everything is better now the Second City has completed their work. This is the second time we are very satisfied using Second City as have people we have recommended to them."

"Very professional and courteous, would highly recommend for any brickwork you need done. My brick came out perfect I replaced a door with a window and needed to complete the rest of the bricks under the new window. It turned out really nice afterwards it looks like the bricks were always there with the rest of the old existing brick."

"Scott is very professional! He called immediately and set up a free estimate. The price quoted was exactly the price paid. His team did a great job, cleaned up, matched the existing bricks very well (50+ yr old home) and explained the quality process. He communicated every step of the way! He suggested caulking two areas around the outside of my house and performed that service as well."
