Cummins Restorations

Brian did an excellent job for an affordable price! I highly recommend his work, and would definitely hire him again.

I am so pleased with the work that Brian and team did and would very much recommend them! They arrived on time, were courteous and professional and I appreciated that Brian took the time to explain what he was going to be able to do. This was a job where I was looking for repairs to be done to a very old and broken and uneven walkway leading to me house. In my initial consultation Brian was able to listen and understand what I was after. I couldn't be more satisfied with the final product and now know who I would call if I needed this kind of work again!

Cummins Restoration did an excellent and efficient job of repairing the pointing on my chimney. They were courteous, professional, in time and on budget.

I had a few bricks that needed replacing. Brian did the work and made a few other repairs nearby. The work was done quickly and efficiently.

We are very pleased with the service Brian Cummings and crew provided us.
They started and completed the job on time. The masons were quiet clean and respectful. The work is excellent and priced competitively.

Highly recommended.

Thank you so much to Brian for coming out on-site quickly for the quote and completing the work in a timely, trustworthy, and tidy manner.
This was especially important because another company had just quoted the job at a much much higher price that was outside the window of any common sense. I needed someone who had experience and could be trusted with the work of this chimney fix at my Mothers home - Seniors are often taken advantage of by many businesses.
Again thanks to Cummins Restoration. We will choose you for all future work and I would highly recommend you to everyone.

It seemed to happen all at once, but I know it was many seasons of freeze/thaw that caused three good sized sections of the brick on one side of my house to start to spall. The side was along the narrow walkway between my home and my neighbour. Two sections were at the level of the first/second floors and the last up on the third floor. One contractor took a look at the third floor part and just walked away due to the difficulty involved.

Brian came by and walked with me around the house, making a couple of good suggestions. I believe it was 80 - 100 bricks that needed replacing and a good deal of mortar work. I also asked for two limestone sills that had begun to decay to be replaced.

I was away after the first morning of the repairs, but had already developed trust in Brian. When I returned I found:
1. the brick that had weathered for over a century had been very well matched;
2. the mortaring was matched as well, and a great deal more was done than I expected;
3. the sills came very close to matching the original sills: and
4. the area was cleaner than when I left!

I believe the cost was more than reasonable for such skilled and professional work and would highly recommend Brian and his team to anyone looking for honest and skilled tradesmen.

Very professional and excellent quality work! The mortar on my porch pillars needed replacing due to deterioration over the years. Cummins Restoration did a great job of grinding out the old mortar and tuck pointing with new mortar. When missing/deteriorated bricks were discovered at the base of one pillar (hidden under the porch) they fixed that, too!

Professional, looks great. Work was clean, efficient and respectful of neighbours, in tight semi. Highly recommend!

Reliable, professional and clean!
Did a great job tuck pointing, filling in the gaps between our bricks.
I would highly recommend Cummins Restoration…
