I cannot recommend Frank and his team enough. I hired them to repoint part of the interior of my stone foundation as well as the exterior of my garage. I spent a long time searching for someone that would do this kind of work and do it well - a lot of what I found online was not high quality or they would just put mortar over the joints and stones and call it a day. I was very concerned because the mortar was crumbling quickly and from the moment Frank saw the job when he came to quote it, he put me at ease. From start to finish Frank and his team did an amazing job. The quote came in quite reasonable, and when we identified that the walls of my garage that are only accessible from my neighbors' property were worse than what I hired Frank to repair, he worked to keep the overall price of the job reasonable in spite of the expanded scope. He documented everything in written scope documents, he communicated via different channels (including text and email) and was always prompt with his response, and he even supplied a written warranty at the end of the job. I've hired a lot of great contractors in the past and Frank is now at the top of the list. I'll absolutely hire him again for any future masonry work I have. I've included an example before and after of some of the worst section of the foundation.
Frank and his team were wonderful to work with. Communication from initial site visit to scheduling was great. He and his team were prompt, worked quickly and kept everything clean the entire way. The quality of work is great, we would certainly hire them again.
I had a fantastic experience with Burns Masonry . They did an incredible job repointing our foundation. The team was prompt, professional, and very respectful of our property. The mortar match is perfect, you can't even tell it was repaired. They cleaned up every bit of debris before leaving, which I really appreciated. Their pricing was competitive with other quotes we received, and the final work was outstanding. Highly recommend them to anyone in need of quality masonry work!"
We had an outstanding experience working with Burns Masonry, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. From our very first conversation, it was clear that honesty and integrity are core to how they do business. Francis Burns, the owner, took the time to thoroughly evaluate our basement issues, explain exactly what was going on, and walk us through realistic, thoughtful solutions, without any pressure or upselling. It was refreshing to work with a contractor who was straightforward, transparent, and genuinely focused on doing the right work the right way.The level of thoroughness and responsiveness throughout the entire process was exceptional. From first contact to final completion, communication was timely, clear, and professional. The team repointed our basement foundation and applied a carefully considered waterproofing solution that completely cured long-standing water infiltration issues in our rental building in Plymouth. Every step of the work reflected deep expertise and attention to detail, and the project stayed on schedule without any surprises.Just as impressive was their respect for the property. The crew cleaned up meticulously at the end of each workday, and once the job was fully complete, the basement truly looked like we had a brand-new foundation. It was spotless, solid, and dry -- something we honestly didn’t think was possible given its condition before.Burns Masonry was an absolute pleasure to work with, and Francis Burns runs a company you can trust. If you’re looking for a skilled mason, integrity, and peace of mind, this is the team you want.
I initially reached out to Burns Masonry after he came recommended from a friend where they had also done some foundation repointing, (the same work I needed). After checking out his work and reading through the great reviews online, I gave them a call and "Frank" came out to my house the same day and provided an estimate with 2 days which was extremely detailed and broken down with 2 different options on how to do the work since I told him I was working within a budget. His pricee to fully repoint the basement foundation walls and add waterproofing was within my budget which I was shocked at since other estimates I had received from other company's were much much higher.Frank and his team removed all the old mortar between the stone which was giving me a headache with constantly having to vacuum up the failing dust. I had a lot of questions about almost everything as I'm not familiar with this type of work. Frank explained in great detail and his communication throughout the entries process was exceptional. Work areas were cleaned daily. Frank was on the job every day overseeing the repointing work. I called them back a few weeks later to add waterproofing to the walls, I wanted to brighten the room and make it fell welcoming with that added protection against water. I couldn't be happier with the end results of overall project.These photos of the work process speak for themselves. I will be recommending Frank and his crew at Burns Masonry to anyone in need of repointing their basement foundation walls.
