Outside Stone Room
We called A&A Masonry to finish an outdoor room where our previous contractor took our money and ran. There were many areas that needed to be repaired and redone from the incompetence of our previous contractor. Nigel from A&A responded to my inquiry immediately and scheduled a site visit. It was evident that Nigel wanted to do whatever A&A could to help us build our room with our original vision in mind. He even did some extra research to see if he could find other contractors to finish work that was not stone related. He truly went above and beyond. Throughout the process Nigel responded to texts and phone calls within minutes.
I felt in very good hands with Nigel however when Eduardo and his team showed up to start the stonework, that’s when the magic happened. Eduardo has an eye for detail and offered numerous suggestions that greatly improved upon our original idea. The stonework is absolutely beautiful and I LOVE my new outdoor room! Eduardo and his men were professional, friendly and SUPER clean! I would ask for Eduardo and his team for all of my masonry work in the future. A&A is not cheap but what I received in quality, professionalism and elegance made me happy to hand over the check at the end of the project. I will recommend A&A to all who are looking to have stonework done inside and outside their homes. A+++++++
Company Response
WOW 😮 THANK YOU JEN FOR YOUR WONDERFUL REVIEW!!! So glad that our team was able to handle your problem and create a beautifully done job for you and your family to enjoy for years to come.

Interlocking Replacement And Chimney Repairs
I contacted A&A Masonry for some interlocking and brick work at the house. Greg came by, we discussed the job, and he provided a quote and answered all the questions that I had. Bill, Thomas and Luke did a very good job repairing the interlocking at the front of the house and putting a new sod. They removed the old interlocking from the back yard and lay down new stones perfectly. A very well done job! For the brick work, Jon and Michael came and in few hours they replaced all the damage bricks with new ones paying a lot of attention to matching the color as close as possible with the remaining old bricks. A precision work and it looks very nice now. This is the third time that I get A&A Masonry to do work at my home and results are always excellent.
Company Response
Thank you very much Ricardo! Glad that you feel you can trust us with your home not only once, but three times! We are very proud of our crews and we look forward to any other work you need done!

Porch Renovation
Our porch was badly in need of some renovation. We had originally thought of using concrete and then having 2 pillars built for 2 columns. When Greg gave us an option of stone tile, which is what we eventually went with. The job started when they said it would which was nice. The crew on site were great, especially Eduardo and William who were more than happy to answer any of the questions I had. The workmanship was excellent and we couldn’t be more happy. I would highly recommend this company for any of your masonry needs.

Reconstruct Front Porch
I should not be using this review space to denigrate another company as much as to praise A&A, but I must do so in order to give context to the review. Two years ago we had our front steps re-done in concrete slabs by a company called Image Enhanced and the job they did was positively awful. After one year, mortar cracks appeared and some stone treads popped off. They repaired a couple of steps but after a second year, more treads had popped off and side slabs had fallen off and the whole job needed to be repaired. That’s where A&A came in.
I learned of A&A right here on Homestars and and from my first interactions with Greg I knew I was dealing with a very different kind of company. One where the people not only knew what they were talking about, but ones who cared about the quality of work they were going to leave behind.
When I met Mike and his wife April I was even more impressed. Mike was a perfectionist in all the right ways. Mike and April were friendly, personable, easy to like and get along with, but most importantly Mike just inspired me with confidence that I never had working with the previous company.
No wonder – he pointed out all of the things that had been done poorly (most of which were visible to the eye anyway) but also technically why he felt the previous job had gone so wrong. He explained what he was going to do differently and why, and why I would be the beneficiary of a superior project. Unfortunately, as he pried up old steps he found more wrong than had met the eye initially and so we agreed with Greg to increase the scope of the job. In the end we agreed to an almost complete redo of the shoddy work of the previous company.
But the end result is like night and day. It pains me that I have had to pay twice to get what I should have gotten in the first place, but in many ways it pains me more that I did not learn of, and use, A&A in the first place. I am confident that the project would have been done right the first time and I am confident that in the unlikely case that any repairs are needed in the future that Andy and Greg and A&A will stand behind their warranty rather than hide behind some technicalities the way my previous contractor did.
I would use A&A again without hesitation, and recommend them heartily. Special thanks to Mike for persisting through wet and cold weather and for making sure that no corners were cut. The man is a craftsman who takes great pride in his workmanship, and I say that in the most appreciative way and with kudos and respect.

Thanks Mike!! Wow. That’s a hell of a review! Gave me goosebumps. It’s very rewarding to get this kind of feedback. Really validates our efforts to get and keep our standards as high as possible. –Andy

Parging Inside Garage Foundation & Brick Replacement
Another great experience from my go-to masonry company. In April I noticed a white material on inside the garage on the foundation and I was worried that it would compromise the integrity of the foundation.
Greg and Joe informed me that it was efflorescence. Joe used hydraulic cement to parge one whole side and and the portion of the other side that was affected and educated me on the product he used and why it will help with the issue. He also replaced a few cracked bricks in my garage centre column and pointed them as well.
In addition he caulked my side door to prevent water from getting in behind the bricks so that it doesn’t lead to further issues in the garage.
As on past projects, he was personable, professional, and very thorough. His work is of the highest quality and it just makes me feel so good that I can call A&A whenever I have any masonry issues or projects and know what results I’m going to get.

Interlocking Stone Front Patio And Walkway
We are incredibly happy with the work that was done on our front walkway and patio. The original state of it was not great, as you can see by the pictures. The original flagstone was cracking and falling off, resulting in a fairly dangerous walkway.
We called A&A Masonry, and received a quick response. MaryAnna and Morgan were super helpful in arranging and facilitating the job. Bill and Thomas came and cleared out the old and did an amazing job installing the new. Not only did they install the interlocking stone but they were incredibly helpful in their suggestions and went above the call of duty to make sure that it looked great.
For example, if they followed the grade of the driveway, the patio would have too much of a slope, so they planned to flatten the patio out and have it raised above the level of the driveway. The problem was that the stone we had purchased for the border did not have an external face.
Bill and Thomas took back part of the stone and exchanged it at the vendor (Boulders) for border stones with an exterior face that would match the front stone step. Bill and Thomas worked quickly and finished the job in only a few days.
I am incredibly pleased with the experience we had, and unreservedly recommend A&A Masonry for whatever you might need. We will definitely be using them again. Huge thanks to the team at A&A!
Company Response
Thank you Anthony & Jennifer! I am so pleased that you are “incredibly happy with the work that was done”. I will be passing this along to our team and we at A&A look forward to working with you on any future projects.

Parging, Brick Restoration And Tuck Pointing
Many thanks to the Ronaldo and his great crew! Team arrived promptly and attention to detail was provided to fix a brick pillar between the garage doors at the front of the house. In addition, repairs were done to a “step crack” in the front of the house, and an eroding brick window sill. Ronaldo rebuilt our brick lamp post and replaced the fixture.
The team thoroughly cleared the sides of the house and did smooth parging over eroding foundation walls. Very professional job!
The crew cleaned up thoroughly as part of wrap-up, even washing the driveway.
Definitely recommend A&A Masonry for your brick work.

Our large front patio needed to be re-leveled and have some of the stone work repaired and replaced. Bill and his team did a high quality job refinishing the front patio. They were able to do the job within a week of first calling over the course of 2 days. They also did a great job matching the existing stonework where new stones needed to be brought in.
Overall, I’m extremely pleased with the quality of work, the responsiveness of the team, and the professionalism throughout the job.

The side wall on my stairs which was faux stone, was pulling away from the side creating a gap between the stone and the wall. Water was leaking inside the gap and I wanted it repaired as well as my steps.
Dwight was the stone mason who came to repair and he did a great job. He was able to provide a solution to a bad situation. He finished the job quickly and his attention to detail was impressive. He ended up parging the side walls of my steps and fixing some the steps in need.
The whole team did a great job, Hayden provided helpful information and assured me it could be done quickly, Andy was able to schedule me in right away to do the repair.

Tuck Pointing And Parging Around House On All Sides
Dwight did a fantastic job on our home. I explained to Dwight all of the issues we have been having and he listened patiently and addressed my concerns. Our home is over 30 years old. There were several cracks in the mortar on the front of our house and the brick was starting to loosen.
All the cracks were fixed and the job was done very professionally. We also had all sides of our house parged. There were some difficult and challenging areas to parge as we have armour rock and landscaping beds around the front of our house.
Dwight carefully dug the soil away from our foundation and parged theses areas which was time consuming.
Dwight worked until 8:30pm to finish the job. We couldn’t be happier with the work done on our home.

Minor Job, But Still Great Service
I found A&A Masonry on HomeStars, and Greg came to my property to take a look at some minor preventative repairs I needed. He was friendly, professional, gave good advice, and pointed out a couple of areas that could use work that I missed, but immediately agreed with his assessment.
Dwight came to do the repairs after that, and was prompt, quick, and did a great job. The downside was that his repairs looked better than some of the original spots! Obviously, that’s not a downside: it was a job well done, and I’d call A&A again in the future.

Masonry Work
I had an unusual masonry job at the foundation of a house. It was not a big job and required a creative solution. Some contractors I contacted didn’t want to bother or didn’t know what to do because it wasn’t a typical job.
Greg was very professional, understood the problem and came up with a very creative solution that addressed the foundation problem. As it was not a typical job he volunteered to do the job himself along a helper. The work was done quickly over 2 days and Greg was great to deal with. The office staff was also very organized with calls, invoicing etc. This company is very professional and I highly recommend them for any masonry work.

Threshold Replacement And Parging
First of all, it took only 8 days from initial contact until everything was done! David, who came to give us an estimate, is an extremely nice guy, explained everything we needed to know, suggested what had to be done and even showed us the problems (nothing major but had to be fixed) that we haven’t even noticed before.
The main problem was a broken threshold under the sliding door into our backyard and crumbling foundation in a few places. The work done by Dwight was great and even exceeded our expectations.
New limestone threshold looks amazing, cinder blocks put in place of crumbling bricks behind the steps look good and solid, and the foundation looks like new after parging done. Everything was cleaned up perfectly after the work was done. If we ever need masonry contractor A&A will definitely be the company we call. Thank you!!!

Chimney And Front Porch Stone
Our original plan was the chimney rebuild of a 1930’s bungalow which had been partially repaired about 8 years previously, but still had a base in poor shape.
A & A was the quickest supplier to respond in order to set an appointment in Nov 2018. In the process of meeting with David for a quote on the chimney, he recommended us on stone for our concrete slab porch as both a way to preserve the concrete which would have been almost 30 years old and was developing extensive pitting as well as creating a much more attractive entrance. Tablet in hand with photos he made a convincing argument.
Both crews (Rinaldo et al on the chimney and Maya and her masons on the stone porch) who did the work were efficient, tidy, and communicative providing clear recommendations for locations to choose stone, where to drop deliveries of supplies, answering questions about the work, and the quality of work was fantastic.

A Job Well Done!
Background ~ I have a 15-year-old Mattamy home and the “above grade” portion of my foundation was crumbling. In addition to that, there was moisture seeping through the foundation into my garage and cold cellar, causing the interior foundation to crumble.
Service Call ~ I went through the issues with Greg from A&A, who was friendly and polite. Within a few hours of going over the project, he provided an incredibly detailed and thorough quote (including pictures with notes), outlining the work to be done and scope of the project.
Installation ~ On the day of installation, Mitch and I went over the details of the work he was going to do and he went to work right away. Not only was he very polite and friendly, I have to say, this guy is a workhorse! He worked all day and partly into the evening without stop! He did a fantastic job and i couldn’t be happier with the result!
Pricing ~ Upon reflection, my only “complaint” would be about pricing, as I believe it was a little on the “high end” based on the amount of hours spent and materials used. I’m not unhappy, my ONLY regret is that I didn’t try to barter a little at quote time and that’s on me.
Conclusion ~ A good company with good people doing good work. A job well done! Thanks guys.

Prompt service overall, thorough attentiveness and fair and honest estimate from Brad. No gauging, took seriously the pride in my home despite being a smaller repair job.

Exterior Brickwork
My work details are as follows: I had recently purchased home that needed a door in the kitchen to be removed and replaced with a window; a bay window removed and sliding door put in its place; chimney (base) repair.
I researched a few other companies before deciding to request a quote from A&A Masonry. I spoke with David V. over the phone and scheduled an appointment.
David is a great salesman. He was friendly; built rapport quickly; was easy to talk with on a personal level.
When it came to the scope of work he gave me the full suite (most expensive) of options and allowed me to choose what I prioritized as important to determine our scope of work. Most importantly when it came down to pricing he was transparent b/c I had no idea how expensive masonry work was until we started this exercise.
Once the scope of work was completed and dates were set I communicated with Andy via email and over the phone. The renovations at the home took longer than expected and each time I postponed our work start he was patient and understanding.
Finally, once the start date rolled around I met the installer. His Name is Dwight S. At first I hoped that one of the A&A’s was going to be doing the work on the home but after seeing Dwight’s attention to detail and his work I knew I was in good hands. Dwight worked through some tough fall conditions and still was able to deliver exceptional results.
As an added layer of complexity; I was doing the framing and knock outs myself and had the window installers on-site as well. Dwight was able to work well with all the different crews which; with the wrong people can add tension and friction, however, thankfully this was never the case.
I highly recommend the whole team at A&A (including Libby who handled payment) and specifically those mentioned here. I hope this review helps.

Waterproofing Basement
We hired A & A Masonry to waterproof our basement. We were promised that the work would be done within the next 2 weeks. True to their word, they were ready to begin about 5 days after the contract was signed.
The work took a day and a half to complete. The workers were unobtrusive, answered our questions satisfactorily, cleaned up well and did good quality work, all at a reasonable cost.
We had a sump pump installed and are now applying to the city for a rebated of approximately $1800.

A&A Masonry Did A Wonderful Job!
A&A Masonry did a terrific job. I had a terrible misadventure with another contractor that ended up doing a lot of damage but A&A came and fixed things up like new.
Hayden came directly to my home, did an assessment and gave me a specific quote (that was met right to budget.
Mike and April did a great job – it was difficult to find an exact match for the stone but the completed job looks better than new!

Quick Job, Happy With Results
I needed the removal of old (crappy) parging, install concrete blocks at the ground level, to have some old bricks replaced, and to have a wall and post tuck pointed.
The whole thing was very quick and Joe & Kyle were friendly and did great work. I was nervous about the new mortar looking, well, new and the colour match was / is perfect. About a dozen bricks were replaced and you literally are unable to pick them out. Plus they killed a wasps nest while they were here!

Basement Walkout Removal
I hired A&A Masonry to demolish a walkout, waterproof and fill in. Masonry work was done to satisfaction, but cut stucco was left unfinished. The crew said someone else will be sent to finish the stucco; but David, the project manager said it wasn’t included. When signing the contract, he mentioned that the stucco will need to be cut, but never mentioned that it will be left unfinished and will be my responsibility. Now I’m left with an unfinished stucco border which looks terrible.

Brick Repair (Pointing And Replacement) In A Difficult Area
We hired A&A to repair the bricks+mortar under our front porch and back deck, which were decayed to the point that rodents were able to force holes into our house. This involved pointing as well as replacing bricks.

Parging Repair And Reconstruction
We wanted to repair the crumbling parging at the side of our house and called A&A and a few other companies. A&A was the first to call back and Greg was on site the next day to provide a quote.
Based on what was discovered by the work crew, more work was needed, but Andy was able to adjust the quote and provide me with a lower price.
Dwight was on site for two days and he was excellent! He knocked off loose parging and attached wire mesh to ensure the new cement would stick. The final product is very smooth and I can appreciate the attention to detail around the windows.
Dwight cleaned up and left the driveway as it was before work started. Many thanks!

Found A&A Masonry on Homestars. Our 100 yr old house had spalling bricks. Greg came to our place shortly after calling for inspection and quote.
We had Dwight come by and do the job and he did a great job. He was a champ and did a 12 hr day in the blistering heat (humidex in the 40s!) to complete the job in one day.
The brick was matched very well, considering the original brick hasn’t been made in years. and most of it had to be done around our gas line. Still, Dwight got it all done.

Chimney Repair And Waterproofing
We needed to fix our chimney based on the advice of a contractor for some previous work and we had noticed some water stains developing in our basement.
We called A&A Masonry as they appeared to be able to help with both of these issues.
Right from our first contact with the company to the final work being completed, we were incredibly pleased.
The masonry crew of Ronaldo and Augusto were extremely professional, explained what they were doing to our very curious 3-year old son (which he loved!) and did excellent work.
Our waterproofing was done by Alex and his crew in a very tight area of the house but they managed to complete the work with minimal disturbances to the surrounding area and took the time to explain what they were doing to me (and again, to our very curious 3-year old son).
Thank you A&A Masonry for your hard work and great service!

Exterior Foundation Repair And Basement Waterproofing
We are very happy with another fine job from A&A Masonry. Several years ago A&A did a superb job of interior waterproofing in our basement.
This time we needed repairs to the exterior where water was coming in through a breach at the point where our old foundation meets a newer extension – which had never been waterproofed by the builder.
Alex and his crew dug down to the footings (by hand!) and worked their magic in a very cramped spot between ours and our neighbour’s house, repairing some ‘impressive’ cracks and adding new state-of-the art waterproofing membranes and drainage tiles.
Thanks again to all the team at A&A.

Porch Repair
We hired A&A to make some repairs to my parents’ flagstone porch. It is important to me to feel that the people dealing with my parents are being fair, doing a good job for them and will treat them with respect and kindness.
Mike and April were the team that did the work, and they were amazing. The work was done quickly and professionally, and they were absolutely great with my parents.
The first day they showed up to just to scope out the job and materials they would need, but they took the time to remove all of the loose stone and make sure that the steps were completely safe for my parents to use until they came back. They took the time to listen to my parents concerns and tried to address everything they wanted.
The result and the clean up were great. I also really liked dealing with Greg and with the office staff.
The online booking method was good and would be really nice for people with larger jobs: you can track progress and address any concerns with the work. It is not so good for folks who don’t want to use the computer – like my parents, but I have no doubt that they would accommodate technophobes equally as well.

Communication was really good throughout. They worked hard to make sure I was satisfied and completed things I felt needed to be done.

Concrete Resurfacing On Front Porch
Decorative Concrete review in Milton Almost 2 years ago
We had the concrete resurfacing completed on our front porch. The crew showed up on time and the work was completed in one day.
Our porch looks absolutely amazing and we’ve had several neighbours comment on the difference it makes.

Fantastic! Chris showed up the same day that I called to give me a quote. Andy, one of the owners, called the next day to schedule the work. Rory and James showed up right on time both days that they worked. They were very courteous and they were prepared to answer all questions about the job. They worked diligently and cleaned the site up properly. Their work was excellent! The new mortar matches the old mortar just as their website says that it will. Highly recommended!

Grinding & Pointing Of Mortar
The service from A&A Masonry was superb. The people I dealt with were lovely from the salesperson, all the workers and even the receptionist. I was quite pleased with the work performed – holes professionally taken care of with mortar matching the original, and surface cracks in foundation taken care of. My home was built in 1963. A&A Masonry was even willing to coordinate their scheduling with another company doing work at my home about the same time. I would definitely call them again.

Masonry Repairs
When we purchased our home, we were unaware that we would require as many small, challenging masonry repairs. Sadly, after removing our patio cover, we needed some quite challenging repairs, involving broken bricks, missing window lintels, and several rows of irregularly sized brick installation.
Kyle and Rick were dispatched from A&A, and did an amazing job for us. They were prompt, polite, and very professional. The quote was for a day of work, and as the job revealed itself, it expanded to more than that timeframe. The work was excellent, and blends in with our existing brick and mortar seamlessly.
Cleanup with brick and brick cutting can be brutal, and they left us in great shape upon completion. I could not have been happier with my experience with A&A.

Brick Match And Repair
Some bricks had deteriorated by the front porch of our 1940’s brick house. Greg came and gave an estimate. Dwight was able to take them out, match them and the grout and make it look the same. Once it is all dry, you won’t be able to notice anything out of the ordinary, and there’s no hollowed out bricks anymore.

Window Sill Replacement And Foundation Repairs
I contacted A&A Masonry to have both a missing piece in the corner of our foundation and to see what could be done about our brick sills, which were cracking and breaking. I spoke with Joe to get a quote and I explained that I would like to have the work done as soon as possible. Joe was great – he said he would put a rush on it. 24 hours after meeting with Joe, I received a call from Andy to say that Ruairi and James would arrive the next morning.
Ruairi and James were excellent. They were polite and friendly. Their work was fabulous. The work looks wonderful. Their clean up was above and beyond all my expectations. At the end of the first day, when a rain storm moved in, they still did a completely thorough clean up. They exceeded all of our expectations.
From the time I submitted an email request for a quote to the job being completely finished, I was always kept informed about the job and what to expect next. They were quick to respond to my initial email. Everyone I dealt with at A&A Masonry was polite, friendly and professional. I felt completely comfortable with all their staff at all times. Overall an excellent experience and a job excellently done.
I would absolutely recommend them to friends and family. And should we need their services again I will definitely call them!

Brick And Mortar Repair
Found A&A Masonry on Home Stars and requested a quote for mortar and brick repair on a 3 story Edwardian house. Got a call from Hayden who responded to my request for a quote and my need to have the work done within a 2 week period or sooner. I met with Hayden and showed him the problem areas. He explained what work would be done and how. Hayden conveyed the urgency of my request to Andy, who is one of the 2 owners of A&A. Andy accommodated my request and sent Kyle to do the job. Kyle was an easy going, diligent mason who took pride in his work. Kyle performed solo on the job which took 2.5 days to complete. He arrived on time each day. He also took the liberty to re-caulk my 2nd floor windows as he was repairing bricks around the window frames. He even pulled a few weeds out of my eavestrough as one of my “favours” while he was on the roof and he was very kind to oblige. The A&A staff demonstrated service beyond my expectations with their prompt response, detailed proposal/quote, and their efforts to accommodate my tight timeline for completion. Their humour and friendliness made for some good laughs and joking. I’m very satisfied with A&A Masonry for their quality work and will definitely recommend to others. Thank you Andy and team!

Dwight is the man! I had some parging of an exterior wall and 3 lintels that needed to be replaced. Dwight was amazing. Professional, courteous and incredibly good at his job. I tried to fix some of the small exterior cracks on the walls and after watching Dwight correct and fix my work I can appreciate the skill and hard work that goes into doing it right. I would highly recommend A&A Masonry and specifically Dwight for any of your masonry needs! I can be confident in this review because the work was done on my house 3 years ago and it looks as good as the day it was done. The reason I waited so long is partially because I completely forgot to write this review and I remembered promising Dwight that I would review him. I figured I owed it to Dwight for all of his hard work. He even parged some additional cracks he noticed which were not part of the original quote.

Pillar, Stairs, Removal Of Retaining Wall, Parging
This project, which started as a simple removal of a retaining wall and redoing the stairs, turned into something much larger with rebuilding a pillar and making everything structurally sound. We were really impressed by Jose and his crew. They went out of their way to make sure everything was done properly. They worked tirelessly and the end result was fantastic. We could not have asked for better workers. Jose and the crew cleaned up after every single work day, worked through 35 degree heat, and made sure our house is as good as it could possibly be. The stone work ended up being amazing and the brick pillar looks incredible. We asked for them to fill in some simple parging, and they ended up going above and beyond and finished the entire wall. It looks phenomenal. We worked with Ray to order the stone, and he had everything organized so we didn’t even have to think. A

We contacted A&A in February and received excellent customer service in getting connected to our contractor. Our contractor, Dan V. was amazing; he helped us conceptualize the project (a stone retainer wall), the timelines, cost and products needed in a timely and professional way.
Most of all, however, it was the quality of the work; Dan and his team arrived when they said they would, were great communicators, and the quality of their work was really excellent.
We were so happy with this job that we’ll definitely use the services of this company again and highly recommend to others.

Window Sill Repairs, Tuck Pointing, Masonry Repairs
I am very satisfied with this company from start to end. Greg came out to give us an estimate for the job needed to be done and within a short time Dwight came to do the repairs. I certainly would recommend A&A to anyone who wants the job done the right way. I am greatly impressed by Dwight’s professionalism, neatness and great attention to detail ! He went above and beyond to get the work done to our satisfaction. Dwight is a great asset to A&A. He installed 5 limestone window sills, replaced some broken bricks around our entrance door , tuck pointing and parging. He also was very thorough in cleaning up afterwards. I am very happy with his work ! Thank you A&A !

Tuckpointing & Parging
We called A&A Masonry to see whether they could help us fix some damage to the mortar & parging on our house. Within a day, Steve was able to come over promptly to give us a detailed quote. He was clear with his recommendations and attentive to our needs. After we accepted the proposal, Andy gave us a call to arrange a convenient time to complete the work. He was quite flexible and offered us many options. About a week later, Dwight showed up at our door early in the morning to start the work. He worked tirelessly through the day and stayed to nightfall. His work was outstanding and he completed everything that we had requested. Overall, an outstanding experience from beginning to end. I would definitely call them again for all our future masonry needs.

Mortar Repair In Brickwork Around Window
A leak detection company found the source where water was coming into the basement to be holes in the mortar of the bricks around an outside window. Dwight from A&A Masonry did a very good job in filling in the gaps. He was very pleasant, did the work in a timely manner, cleaned up nicely and even went out of his ways to fill in some areas which he noticed that was not part of the original job.

Tuck Pointing, Brick Replacement And Repair.
Joe and Kyle did a wonderful job and were a pleasure to have around for the eight days they were here. The house is 120 years old, so many of the bricks were water-damaged and broken. They found replacement bricks that were an excellent match for the surrounding ones and they also matched the colour of the mortar used. They were meticulous in their work, often going over the same area two or three times to see if they had missed anything. They even removed an ugly electrical wires pipe that had been disconnected in the 1970s and replaced the bricks where it had entered the house, a huge plus. And they cleaned up after themselves. We figure the house is good for another 120 years. We recommend them whole-heartedly.

Bill, Alex, and the rest of the team were fantastic. All communications were prompt, clear and warm. The initial estimate was thorough, well explained, and reasonable. The work proceeded on schedule. Alex and crew took meticulous care to proceed safely, efficiently and took on considerable extra work to do the job without disturbing nearby landscaping. I cannot recommend this group highly enough.

After getting a few quotes from other companies, I put my trust into AA to do the job right. They were a bit higher compared to others but I wanted expert service and quality work.
Ray was very friendly and provided a detailed quote of the work after an on site visit.
Dwight came out to do the work and the man is a work horse, got the job done and made sure with me that everything was right. We walked around the site making sure nothing was missed and everything done to my liking.
You get what you pay for. Smooth from start to finish.

Brick Replacement, Pointing And Parging
Working with A&A was one of the best home repair experiences I’ve had. John, Joe, Kyle and Libby were all really great to work with.
John came by the house for an assessment of the work that needed to be done and was incredibly respectful of my schedule and really worked hard to come by when it was best for us. He spent a good amount of time figuring out exactly what needed to be done and gave us some great advice on how to proceed.
A week later, when the work was scheduled to start, Joe and Kyle came by and completed the job in 2 days. The work they did looked amazing and we were surprised at the fast turn around. They left the property clean and neat and were totally professional and great to have around.
Job came in under budget and communicating with Libby was smooth and painless. I would highly recommend A&A to anyone looking to get masonry done.

Wonderful company and crew!!!
I cannot thank A & A Masonry enough for sending me Greg, Darren, Jose, Ulysses, Renee and the others. They were from the beginning very supportive and patient. I had many questions and concerns and they assured me of many things. They said their crew Jose and his brother Ulysses and the rest of the crew were amazing, clean and thorough. It was all true. I cannot believe how easy they made this process for me, with little supervision. This company and crew are the real deal and very thorough. I am so pleased with the their crew that I cannot believe how nice and professional they were. Thank you very much for everything. If you are thinking of doing some work that A and A Masonry does, I highly recommend using them. They were so respectful and good at what they do I cannot stop talking about them. Previously another company did the cement work for me at my home and in little time problems began appearing on my home walkway around my home.
Greg, Darren, Jose, Ulysses, Renee and the others worked diligently at helping me remedy the situation. They saved the exterior of my home. They were relentless and went the extra mile to do the job right. Thanks again!!! I will gladly speak to you if Greg calls me to tell you what my impressions of the their work is.

I approached this company for my basement work going by the outstanding reviews in HOME STARS. I was also quite impressed with their effort to live by the Clients’ charter of rights which they have on their website. Well, I must say that I am more than pleased with my choice and quite impressed with their work ethic. Throughout I felt very comfortable dealing with them. I am truly impressed with their willingness to go the extra mile to make sure that the customer is satisfied in every respect and that includes the quality of the work. I am very pleased to recommend A and A Masonry to anyone looking for a professional to do Masonry related work. It is no exaggeration to say that I have not come across a company such as A and A Masonry in a long long time so very willing to satisfy all of the customer needs and make every effort to meet and exceed the customer’s expectations. I must in particular mention Andy the Project Manager for all the support that I received.

I had a problem with water leaking into my basement. A&A Masonary repaired the issue. There were two workers on this project, a lead and a helper. The lead worker Colm kept me informed every step of the way, he was excellent to work with. Once the project was completed both men cleaned up and there was no mess left behind. I was very impressed with the workmanship. We had a rain storm the day after the project and the basement stayed dry.

Great Work
Our front staircase was in horrible condition and in desperate need of replacing. After hearing several radio commercials for A&A Masonry, I decided to give them a call. From my initial call for an estimate to completion of the job A&A were professional and thorough in their work.
Our contractor Jose arrived with his crew on Thursday morning for demolition and by late Saturday afternoon the job was completed. The difference between my old staircase and the new one is like night and day. I should have hired these guys back when I initially wanted to redo my stairs.
Even their payment policy was fair, they didn’t require any money until after the job was completed (who doesn’t want to hold onto their money as long as possible).
Great job A&A, I recommend you guys to everyone I know.

Brick Repair
I own an almost century old home which had deteriorating bricks on three pillars. I called for a consultation and estimate from the lovely folks at A&A Masonry who assured me that it could be taken care of. An estimate was given, and the work was scheduled to be completed in one day. I was sceptical, having dealt with another company previously for a related job who took forever, and the results were less than acceptable. I wish I had called A&A from the start. The work was perfect! Dwight arrived as scheduled and completed the work in hours! Dwight worked miracles, matching the bricks almost perfectly. The pillars look as good as new. Actually better! Everything was carefully cleaned after the work was complete. I was extremely impressed. Professional, courteous, excellent craftsmanship. I will definitely be calling them back for work in the future. And I would wholeheartedly recommend this company. Everyone I dealt with was professional, knowledgeable, and accommodating. Thank you Brad, Andy, and especially Dwight for a job very well done!

Waterproofing
I recently had A&A Masonry perform waterproofing work along one entire side of my house, and found the team (led by Alex) to be very professional, courteous, efficient, and hard working. Upon arrival and a quick introduction, they went straight to work, digging alongside the house down to the bottom of the foundation. Over the course of the following days, they provided us with regular updates on their progress, and took the time to explain their procedures of waterproofing. The team also installed a sump pump neatly in the basement, with very nice clean-up there as well. Getting the waterproofing done was the prime focus, and Alex and his team worked through the Easter long weekend to ensure that all work was done in time. After finishing, they cleaned up the driveway very well, and even dropped by a few weeks later to top up the gravel on the driveway to help level the area where they had excavated. Overall, we are very pleased with the work done by A&A Masonry, and the commitment to customers shown by their workers such as Alex and his team.

Chimney Replacement And Tuckpointing
I was extremely pleased with the service I received from A&A. They played a critical role in completing a necessary multi-stage project on my home.
I needed to replace a worn out chimney before I could replace my shingles which had begun to leak, so I needed masonry services quickly. I had received several estimates from other well-reviewed companies, but none of them would commit to doing the job in a time frame which would allow my overall project to be completed before the storm season arrived. I was thrilled when the booking agent at A&A was able to communicate with one of his crews while I was on the line, and arrange to have them at my home the following morning, with a competitive quote for the chimney and tuckpointing work I required.
The crew was friendly, respectful, and clean, and did excellent quality work, which was completed in 2 days, allowing me to book the second stage of my project.
I would be pleased to recommend A&A Masonry to anyone.

Basement Walkout
I had worked with John, Darren and the crew last year on my front porch and they did a beautiful job. So I was pleased to go with them to redo my concrete basement walkout. There were some uncertainties about the state s of the walls under 3″ of crumbling parging. John answered all my questions patiently, often by SMS late at night. Once the work began, Bryton and his crew were amazing, despite a late winter storm and very cold temperatures. The work is gorgeous, the walls were sound and I am confident in their quality. Very professional, reliable and fair, I would hire them again in the future.

Outer Brick Wall
Masonry & Bricklaying review in Toronto Over 3 years ago
In 2009 we paid a lot of money to have two walls rebuilt which had suffered major spalling. We were told that they would last as long as we lived in the house. I was not expecting to move after 4 years. After calling in to Frank Cohen’s show on Newstalk 1010 he recommended A & A Masonry for the job. After I left a message they contacted me within 2 hours (24 being their maximum) and then very quickly Bill came to assess the situation. Dwight arrived yesterday and worked a solid 9 hours to replace some of the bricks with cement ones and create a drainage line plus repoint parts of the facade of the house and the basement window. Very happy.

Basement Renovation Project
Basement renovation project for outdoor concrete parging and tuck-pointing; interior water-proofing; installation of a sump pump; and installation of concrete slab floor.
James who handled the outdoor cement parging and tuck-pointing did an excellent job and also provided additional service by matching the outdoor paint job. Great job James!
Colm handled installation of the entire interior water-proofing system, including the water-proof membrane, weeping tile and sump pump. He was very efficient and helpful and did some extra work to ensure we were satisfied with the work. He even came back the next day on his own accord to check that everything was okay and the pump working and answered all our queries. We would highly recommend him to anyone wanting to do basement water-proofing. If you are using A&A for similar service make sure to ask for Colm!!
Moises handled the laying of the cement slab floor. As with the James and Colm, he also made sure that everything was done in an expedient and professional manner and went over and above what the contract specified.
Overall we were very satisfied with the services provided, especially as we needed the work to be completed in a short time span.

An interior waterproofing crew was dispatched within a few days. Colm and Jeremy arrived to our house on time and did a great job getting the waterproofing completed quickly and efficiently. They walked me through each stage of the process, even getting us to take pictures of the progress. I am very happy with their work and now have a dry basement. Thanks again Colm and Jeremy!
