Get matched with top brick or stone siding: repairers or partially replacers in Richmond, VA

"We needed an old concrete and brick stoop removed and replaced as well as some mortar repointing. The new stoop looks really nice and they took the time to make sure they were repairing all the damaged mortar around the foundation. Everything looks great. We paid what we were quoted and the price seemed average for what we had done based on the information I found online. I called multiple places around town and couldn’t get anyone to even give me a quote. I called them and had a quote the next day."

"They did perform the work, same day, very neatly, the gentleman who showed up was the owner of the service, and he was polite, professional, and accommodated the work the same day. I was in a hurry and needed to get some work done quickly; they come out and provide a quote, but indicated their minimum was $500 worth of work to take on the job when Home Advisor had indicated the work was valued at about $400. When we noted a home inspector had indicated the roof 'boots' needed to be replaced, they offered to check on the potential replacements, quote a price, then perform the work the same day. First, they offered a quote for $2,500, which seemed exorbitant for replacing two boots on the roof, then came down to $2,100, then I countered (and they accepted) for $2,000 which included the initial $500 for building the rain dam by the chimney. So honestly, I don't know if I overpaid or paid just about the right price for the boot replacements. Personally, when I review the project and the work, I think $1,000 would have a MORE reasonable price. I would recommend that dealing with ANY roofing repair company to get at least a second quote on the work before accepting the job, even if the company offers to do the work the same day."

"Their repair of my brick steps looks very good. I didn t shop around, so I can t make a judgement on pricing."

"Chuck Hipp and his employee, Antonio, did a phenomenal job! The brick fireplace was sinking and the bricks were separating from the wall. After investigation Chuck determined that there were no footers under the fireplace. He installed new footers, supported the brick wall and reattached all the bricks and suggested the fireplace be covered with stucco and tiles to match the Spanish style of the house. The fireplace turned out beautifully and became the true focal point of the living room. The house was listed for sale and I know the beautiful stucco fireplace helped to sell the home quickly. We moved to our new 1948 house and discovered that the chimney needed to be rebuilt. I received a bid from A Step in Time chimney sweeps which was astronomical. I then consulted a structural engineer who confirmed the bid was outrageously high. He recommended a good brickmason be consulted. I found Chuck Hipp and Hipp Masonry Works on Angies List. Chuck investigated the problem and determined that the chimney needed to be torn down and rebuilt at the roof line and he was able utilize new bricks with old bricks to match the new chimney addition to the existing home and bottom half of the chimney. He asked me to drive around and take photos of chimneys I liked and he would duplicate it. I found a chimney on a beautiful older home and Chuck was able to duplicate it to suit my brick, Tudor home. It is gorgeous and best of all the fireplace can now be used for a beautiful wood fire. He then removed and replaced all the broken, damaged bricks throughout the exterior of the house using mainly old bricks salvaged room the chimney rebuild. Chuck and Antonio did incredible work and at half the price of the previous bid. Before they left they brought in topsoil to fill in any holes in our lawn due to the work and they used soil to regrade the back of the house which had been the cause of damage to lower bricks. They also repointed the front steps and remortered the boxes for the exterior porch lights which were hanging loose from the brick exterior. I will only call the HippMasonry Works for any brick work."

"Had a big job to replace stone facade on new addition to our home. We had the stone that was removed from the existing house, it was big heavy pieces of rock. Samuel knew exactly what he was doing to replace the stone. The price was fair and the work was done in a professional, timely manner. We would highly recommend Funes Masonry. Very satisfied"

"Initially Great! Jason came out and was very honest and knowledgeable. He shared what he would recommend to help with my structural damage / cracks and promptly sent out a report. After I made my decision to secure their services the contact  was lacking. A timeline or update would of put my mind at ease between the time they received the deposit and the actual services started. The work started and each day there was progress. Totally pleased. The final walk through: - Had a sticking door and was shown a trick to correct that by placing a rag in the door jam, the soil placed back in the ground was lumpy and full of brick/stone, brick mortar was not the right color but thought it would just lighten as it dried. A few months later...the mortar is definitely not the right color, there isn't a strap to hold down my downspouts and one of the downspouts fell off. I haven't contacted the company to correct as I will just live with the color and rig my own downspouts. The great news is I feel secure about the foundation work.

"This company was very efficient from inspection to quotation to completing the job. I would definitely recommend them! Their customer service, quality of work and cleanliness was a breath of fresh air. Considering how cold it was, there was no hesitation or complaining when it came to working in the elements."

"

37 house.  Great job!

"Unusual, in my case, is that I had to deal long distance with all companies involved due a family illness and was only able to get to the work location for a few hours during the process. This, of course, made everything a bit more difficult for all concerned. There was some delay in initial contact due to computer problems on his end. He was honest about when he thought he could review and give an estimate and followed up accordingly. The step units had been overgrown with ivy and I had a different company work on removing ivy and spraying them and the immediate surrounds for poison ivy, oak, etc. He reported to me he had to do some additional clearing and had a very bad allergic reaction to whatever brush or such was still there. This did require treatment for him and slowed the process slightly. I apologized and had the other company return and recheck and spray again and then as weather allowed the work went forward with some of his workers as the doctor suggested he not proceed with the work personally due to the reaction. I was able to visit briefly midway and also when he reported the work completed. I did have a few concerns and let Mr. Harvey know. He had his workers return to address these and then gave me a call to let me know. My final check did find most of my concerns were addressed, but some mortar cement and brick pieces were left around the work areas that I thought might have been removed (although I did not feel this worth another call). Overall, it was a positive experience and Mr. Harvey was positive in dealing with situations that may not have been optimum."
