Straight Up Masonry

Tony Devlin and his team were impressive, giving us a very competitive quote on services that were delivered in a very prompt and professional manner. He and his team worked very diligently over 3 days rebuilding our chimney and tuckpointing old mortar in our century old home. We very much recommend his services to anyone.

Straight up Masonry came to the rescue in more than one way for us. From first point of contact Crystal is amazing, organized, understanding and accommodating. When our chimney needed to be rebuilt she arranged an estimate very quickly and answered all our questions. She also arranged a tentative date and placed me on an emergency waitlist, which she remembered and squeezed me in shortly when a cancellation came. Straight Up Masonry’s quote was very reasonable and as promised Tony arrived as scheduled (even a bit early) and completed the work on time and the clean up was so fantastic that it didn’t even look as if any work had been done. As requested Tony bagged the chimney with amazing precision and even after Hurricane Sandy’s destruction there were no leaks from the chimney and no issues as we were waiting for a roofer to complete some warranty work on the flashing around our chimney.

Once the bagging around the chimney was removed, the bricks and craftsmanship was without a doubt flawless and Straight Up Masonry is nothing less than perfection. I even had a question more than a week after the job was done, emailing Straight Up with a question and was pleasantly surprised to receive a telephone response from Tony himself within 2 hours from my initial email question.

When it comes to all masonry needs, please don’t look anywhere else; Straight Up Masonry will give you all of what you need from customer service to excellent craftsmanship. Thank you so much Straight Up Masonry (Crystal and Tony) for everything.

I saw my neighbour get their chimney done by this company. I called and Tony came and did the job and did also do a bit extra repair at house i was not aware of. price was good and crystal on the phone very good. I Will call them again for more work when needed.

I was very impressed with the work of Tony and his team. The rebuild of my porch was done with care. I have had other not so pleasant experiences with contractors in teh past. this experience was pleasant and the outcome was better than I had envisioned. Tony, followed up to make sure I was pleased with teh work and came back (after I had paid him) to check on an area of concern. How many contactors come back oafter they are paid? Thanks Tony.

We hired Tony to replace a leaning pillar at the front of our house. We found his rates very reasonable in comparison to other contractors and they kept to schedule exactly as he said they would.

The work was done over the course of 2 days and we're very happy with the results. Tony was also able to recommend a carpenter to complete a very nice rebuild of our front porch.

Tony followed up afterward to make sure everything was done to our satisfaction - something we've rarely seen in any contractor.

Hired Straight Up Masonry to replace brick sills with limestone sills. Tony was responsive, sent a written estimate and even photographs to show me what the sills would like like after the job was done. Very professional operations, and very pleased with the work and the results.

When I contacted the company Crystal was very empathetic to my situation. She immediately asked Tony if he would be available to come to my house and assess my shoddy window sill replacement done by a previous bricklayer I hired. Tony was available and came within 30 minutes of my initial call. He was courteous and very knowledgable. He was able to point out that my new sills had many mistakes and agreed with me that my previous bricklayer could have worked harder at measuring and doing it correctly. The sills were all incorrectly sloping, as Tony showed me on one sill that a pen couldn't roll down off it, while the other sill beside it was ok. Tony was able to colour match my mortar exactly by taking out a sample colour from a sample board. It was a perfect match. The previous bricklayer gave me a pink colour for mortar which was terrible. I would recommend Tony for the job as he is honest, extremely knowledgable and has great customer service.

Tony was very honest, prompt and hard working. He cleaned up after his job was done and was very professional, as was his assistant. I highly recommend him and will certainly call him again if needed !!

Anthony provided a reasonable quote and there were no surprises after the work was done. His crew were on time, courteous and cleaned up after. My chimney looks great. I highly recommend Straight Up.

Company arrived on time, set up quickly, and proceeded to replace my old chimney with one using colour of bricks to match my roof. Job was done professionally and with care.
