A and D Masonry did an incredible job building a retaining wall and re- grouting our rock slab patio and front porch entryway this week. The whole job only took 3 days and the crew were wonderful to work with and responsive to our every request. Their price was incredibly reasonable; we had other quotes three times higher. We cannot recommend them high enough and would happily show off their work at our home to any potential customer.

I’ve had Rene over twice now for some large projects and have been very impressed by his work and competitive price. The first project was tearing down two stone retaining walls along my driveway, rebuilding the one up against my flower garden and expanding the driveway to fit two cars with a new concrete retaining wall. I’m an engineer by trade and was impressed to see his attention to detail on the new retaining wall, he clearly has experience with both stone and concrete masonry work. He is quick to respond via text and calls and arrives promptly in the morning and communicates his plan for the day well. I’d be happy to recommend him to friends and family looking to perform some maintenance on their 100+ yr old homes around the plaza area!

Rene answers his phone and is reliable and efficient. His crew including his son Tony are friendly. Rainwater was getting in the cracks around our exterior stone work causing water damage in our guest room. Rene offered different options to fix this issue. He actually personally ensured that it was fixed and we are pleased with the results.
