Wilkens completed some tuckpointing for us and the mortar matched the existing work perfectly. Very professional, responsive and easy to work with. I’d highly recommend reaching out to them for a quote.

Last winter, three flagstones became cracked and loose where my walkway meets the sidewalk. This appears to have been due to repeated blows by the sidewalk snowplow. Richard and Bill developed the solution of replacing these three end-stones with sloped concrete. Bill then expertly implemented this solution, which also involved removing the end of the existing concrete pad below the end-stones and pouring a new mini-pad that Bill stabilized by attaching it to the newly cut end of the old pad. Bill ensured that the street-end of the new pad sloped at the optimal angle from the remaining stones down to the sidewalk: shallow enough to avoid being caught by the blade of the snowplow, but not so shallow that the transition to the remaining flagstones would create a tripping hazard for tenants. A tricky job, beautifully done! This is the seventh time that I've used Wilkens Contracting for a range of masonry services. The work is invariably excellent, and the price is always appropriate.

I was greatly impressed with the responsiveness, advice and workmanship of the Wilkens team ranging from Olivia to Richard to Bill (masonary). It was a pleasure dealing with them. I would not hesitate to recommend them and to use them again in future for chimney/fireplace services.

I contacted Wilkens contracting to replace a chimney because the bricks were falling off and was a safety concern. After contacting Olivia they quickly provided an estimate that was very reasonable given the amount of work that had to be done. Frank and Mike who completed the work are exceptional professionals and were able to match the bricks to the period style of the house and completed the work within the specified period of time. I highly recommend this company and will use them again in the future.

Needed the chimney rebuilt to repair water damage. The work was tidy, done carefully and with precision. Frank, the mason, is an artist. Many years experience - he explained what the damages were, how he was repairing it and why he was doing it that way. Felt confident in their work, they were respectful and took all precautions considering covid-19. Cleaned everything up - exactly how you would want a job to be completed. Excellent workmanship, care and respect of our property and home. Highly, highly recommend their work!!!

I used Wilkens a few years ago to re point my chimney and they did an excellent job, so I did not hesitate to get them to do extensive tuckpointing on the weather beaten wall of my 50s house. The estimate was quick and very reasonable. Jake came soon after and did a professional and excellent job, no fuss no muss. I will certainly use Wilkens again and recommend them to friends and neighbours.

House, about 100 years old, needed some tuck pointing and brick replacement. Wilkens provided a quick response, reasonable estimate (others were much more expensive and wanted to do more extensive work than seemed necessary), and Bill did the actual work very well and with only four more bricks than were called for in estimate. Good job!

I first used Wilkens for tuck pointing on my first home in Leaside in the early 1980s . Excellence service . When I moved to another vintage brick house in 2011 I again relied on Wilkens to tuck point the whole house . Recently I used them again for a smaller Job on the front porch . Again the work was excellent and well priced . Real value for $$ . Quite special to deal with the same firm with the same results over a 40 year period !

They visited us and provided a free estimation for a chimney. They are punctual, professional, very knowledgeable on their field and provided good advises!
We can only speak highly about them! Thank you for your excellent services!

This Fall (2019) is the sixth time that I've used Wilkens for masonry work on multiple properties. The work is always superb, both technically and aesthetically. Bill did the latest job, repairing a flagstone walkway, concrete porch, brick wall and asphalt driveway. He was a pleasure to deal with, due his dedication to quality, attention to detail, and patience in clearly explaining every aspect of the work. Once again, the outcome was worth every penny. Thank you!
