Avenue Road Masonry replaced several courses of spalling bricks on the front pillars and side of my garage. Chris from Avenue Road was the only person who came up with the solution to replace the lowest three courses of damaged bricks with concrete blocks to prevent the problem from happening again in future.
The mason, Greg, was meticulous - he tacked up a plumb line to ensure the new courses of concrete blocks were being laid level. He mixed two dyes into the mortar to match the original mortar. He also noticed that the original masons had tooled the mortar on the front of the garage deeper than on the side, so he matched that too. He moved some of the original brick which was in good condition from the side to the front pillars of the garage, in order to get a perfect match. I would defy anyone to tell me where the old brick ends and the new brick begins!
During the work, which took a few days, Robert phoned several times to keep me up to date on the progress of my project. This level of customer service is rarely seen today.
This masonry work has taken decades off the appearance of the exterior of the house. I could not be more pleased with the end results!
