"Racist contractor. When I received call from this contractor. Immediately, I was asked if I was Hispanic. I was taken aback by the statement. I responded by asking what difference did it make. He said he was asking because of my first name, that it was an Hispanic name and I didn’t sound Hispanic. He went on to say, that they only entertained “real or serious” and some people don’t have the money for their services. At this point, it was clear he was inferring that I did not have the financial resources based on what race he thought I was. I told him, I was no longer interested in his business because he was a racist and I don’t support racist."

"HomeSealed replaced 17 of my ancient and drafty windows in my 1928 home. They set me up with financing through a third party, 12 months same as cash (which I was able to pay off already, so that was very helpful.) The new windows are very attractive, are well insulated, and have dramatically cut down the traffic noise from the street. The installation was remarkably quick and efficient. The installers cleaned everything up and I am pleased with the process. They were very responsive to my emails. The only complaint I have is that some of the communication with them was not as clear and timely as I would have liked. I felt as though some things were left for me to ask about rather than anticipating my questions and concerns and addressing them before I became anxious. All in all it was a positive experience and I would recommend HomeSealed to my friends and family."

"Not well and I would not recommend them or hire them again. I decided to go with Midwest Exteriors out of Brookfield, WI. In addition to providing a roof, I also ordered windows to replace the original 1928 windows in the home. They did state up front that it might take a while for the windows as custom windows are having supply issues. Fine. In October, I came home to roofing supplies in my front yard. A quick called confirmed they would be here the next day to install the roof. Prior to agreeing to this, I had expressed concern that I need ALL of the waste materials, especially the nails, be completely cleaned up as I have multiple dogs. I was assured they are known for their thorough clean up after a project. The project ended up taking two days, which would have been fine but no one on the team said anything to me; a call to the owner of the company promised follow-up. Indeed, they were coming back the next day. They did a very poor clean-up as I found pieces of shingles and many nails in the backyard, driveway, and in my front bushes. Again, I called the owner, James, who said he would talk to the team and it would be remedied as they are known for their thorough clean up. Even after the second day, the clean up was mediocre at best. Again, I complained. In January, I was snow blowing my driveway and discovered a HUGE icicle hanging from my downspout- the roofers had knocked it loose and not replaced it. Also in January, I got a call that my windows were in and we set an install of February 1st and 2nd. When they set up the first window, it was missing woodwork that I had requested being included as it was on the original windows. The installers assured me it was an easy fix so the project continued; had I known they COULDN'T fix the windows, I would have stopped the install and had them replace the original windows. They also stated they would come back and fix the downspout. Now it's May, they can't/won't fix the windows as I requested and they haven't fixed the downspout. As such, I am holding the final $10,000 payment until they at least fix the downspout (which they promised to do nearly 6 months ago)."

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.
