I started in the Masonry business in 1976 and have been working ever since. I started my business in 1980 and incorporated in 1986. We are a small company with an experienced crew. They've all worked with me for the last 20 years. Experienced with working with condo associations and large building tuck pointing, brickwork, and stone work.
"We had three estimates and Roger was our clear choice because he noticed so many important things that needed fixing that the other two missed. His higher level of expertise was obvious. This work included many projects, involving a tremendous amount of labor. It took several weeks to totally complete. Roger offered suggestions for our front steps, which could have been left as concrete but we decided to splurge and use our favorite rock as an overlay. We special ordered Morton Gneiss (rock) from Coldspring for the step overlays and the buttress caps, in addition to the special order of two colors of brick for the buttresses. We personally researched and chose the rock and the brick. Roger has the experience and expertise to know what should be done and how best to do it. We enjoyed meeting and working with Roger and his crew. He has the most amazing crew of extremely experienced and expert workers. We can't say enough good things about Curtis, Chris, and Chaz. Their work was remarkably meticulous and skilled and showed the pride they take in it. In addition, they are very personable and courteous. They tidied up before leaving each day. If they came upon unforeseen problems, they discussed them with us and then fixed them, some at no extra charge. They even prepared a base and moved the two former heavy concrete buttress caps to our boulevard to use as a walkway at no charge. As a potential customer, if Roger doesn't get back to you right away, don't give up because he does return calls and he is most definitely worth the wait. He is extremely busy and we feel very fortunate that he was the contractor for our project."

My Name is Ramona. I have been professionally cleaning for 10 years, in my own home for 25 years, and have recently taken over my mom’s residential cleaning business. I have other professionals I occasionally work with to complete a large job quicker. I am a dependable mother of three. Since my son was born prematurely during Covid, I have become OCD about cleaning. I offer great attention to detail! Pay by the job vs the hour makes sense in case I feel the need to wipe a surface 4 times to remove a hair or smudge, lol. I offer free estimates in person or over FaceTime, plus customized cleaning and organizing options as needed for my clients. As a Norwex consultant I prefer to use products that reduce chemical exposure to myself and my clients when possible; I also strive to limit disposable items to lower my footprint. Some flexibility and scheduling options include: weekly, bi weekly, monthly cleaning Monday-Saturday morning or afternoon. I have made exceptions when needed to complete a project. Organization beyond standard cleaning is something I greatly enjoy! Please feel free to ask any questions you may have. More references are available if requested. I have been a LONG time member of Care.com and have many references and background checks there, I am new to Angi and just learning how things work here. Thank you for reading and considering me for this position; I hope to talk with you soon!
"Ramona did a great work on a tough job. She took the time to gather the appropriate PPE that was needed for her protection. She was gentle with me when I had indecision on how to proceed/how far to go on the project. I would definitely recommend her and would use her services again!"

"I spoke directly to Mary Beth (MB) and she scheduled the service for the next day. The service was for a rental property and the previous tenants hadn't cleaned it appeared in quite some time. MB stayed in contact with me throughout the process via phone since I could not be there. Since I needed invoice detail MB documented the team's work and how long it took them in each area of the property. The service was exceptional and my new tenants could not be more pleased! Thank you MB and Team!"

A properly constructed chimney crown using quality materials can last 50 to 70 years with appropriate maintenance. Poorly constructed crowns might need replacement in 20 years or less. Weather exposure, freeze-thaw cycles, and construction quality all affect longevity. Regular inspections and prompt repairs of minor issues can significantly extend your chimney crown's useful life and prevent more costly repairs down the road.
Homeowners' insurance covers sudden, accidental damage to chimney crowns from events like fallen trees or storm damage. However, gradual deterioration from age or lack of maintenance falls outside coverage parameters. Review your specific policy details, as coverage varies between insurers. Document any storm-related damage with photos and maintain records of regular chimney maintenance to support potential claims for weather-related damage.
The chimney crown forms the concrete or masonry covering across the entire top surface of your chimney, sloping away from the flue to direct water away. A chimney cap, by contrast, is a smaller component that fits directly over the flue opening to prevent animal entry and block sparks. While the cap protects just the flue opening, the crown safeguards the entire chimney structure from water penetration.
Professional chimney inspections should occur annually to evaluate crown condition along with other chimney components. Homeowners in regions with severe weather patterns or frequent freeze-thaw cycles might benefit from semi-annual inspections. A thorough inspection examines the crown for cracks, spalling, deteriorating mortar joints, and proper water drainage. Early detection of minor issues prevents them from developing into major structural problems.
A deteriorating chimney crown frequently leads to interior moisture problems. When water penetrates crown cracks, it can travel through the chimney structure into adjacent walls and ceilings. This moisture migration often results in stained drywall, peeling paint, and potential mold growth. Early intervention through crown repair or sealing prevents these secondary damages and protects your home's interior from water-related deterioration.
