“We had to tell them several times to pick up after themselves. They would leave paper cups and messes around each day when they did their work, so we had to remind them. We had some general fix up stuff that we thought needed to be repaired. Fireplace, chimneys, and things like that. They did a pretty good job, but they didn't clean up as well as we would like. We had to tell them to come back and clean it up, don't leave things around here. I would grade them a B. Everything seemed to work out well, the work they did, for about a year. It wasn't to totally rebuild things—it was just repair and tuck-pointing here and there. It's an older house we did.”

“I think the work they did was very good. We ended up doing a little bit more than what was originally quoted, only because when they tore down the original wall, there was nothing behind it, and they were expecting a second layer. I wouldn't say that was their fault at all. Until they ripped down the old stuff, they weren't able to see what was there. Overall it was positive. They kept us updated the whole time. We were not in town when they were doing a lot of the work. They kept in communication and kept us updated. I'd rate the overall experience A+.”

“They did a good job, and they were punctual. But I can't—we haven't been able to get our fireplace to light anymore, so I need to call them. I don't know if it's from the draft from it, but we haven't even messed with it since the season. They were good to work with and everything. They fixed the problem. It's not raining in our fireplace anymore, but I think there's a draft when we open it, so it won't light. They’d get a B grade.”

“They worked on our chimney last year. I liked that they cleaned up after themselves. They really explained to us what they were doing. When they actually got into the job, there was a few more things, and they gave us some options and what we could do to make the chimney stronger. So they did a nice cap for our chimney, and they did a nice job. I’d give them an A, and I would highly recommend them. I have recommended them.”

“They did a great job, and they gave me a great deal. I'm a contractor, and I've used them on a few houses of mine. They been on two chimneys. I would grade them an A+. It took them a little while to get back to me the second time. The first time they were A+ across the board, but the second time A-.”

“They actually cared about what I was doing, what I was going to do with the roof, and why I was requesting that work, so they took an interest in it. They’re A+. All I know is that they did a great job. I would highly recommend them.”

“It was good working with the owners for the price, and they seemed to do good work, but when they came to do it, the work was very messy, and I had to have them come out and clean up the mess. I'd give them a C+ overall.”

“They were fairly responsive in terms of their communication. They did work on the chimney and also an exterior wall of the home. I would grade the overall experience B-. I would highly recommend them.”

“They did a really good job for a good price—we liked them. So it was a good thing. It was done on the chimney. I would grade them an A. It was very good, so I would recommend them.”

“Affordable Tuckpointing Pros did a good job. They did work on the chimney. I would grade the overall experience A. I would highly recommend them.”

“They tuck-pointed my chimney. I would grade the overall experience a B. I recommended them to my neighbor.”

“I liked all of it. They did a good job. They did work in a chimney that's part of the fireplace.”

“I don't remember much, I think it was just the chimney. I would grade them a B.”

“They were efficient and cleaned up well. They did a great job. They get an A+.”

“It was work on a chimney. I would give them a B overall.”

“They did excellent work, and I have no complaints”

“No complaints.”

“It was great.”

“They did a repair on my chimney. I'd grade the experience an A+.”

“They  were great. The price was competitive and they did it all in one day, it was good.”

“I think they were very efficient, considerate, and did a nice job cleaning up. So far, we're very pleased with them. I have no complaints and I would recommend them.”

“Affordable Tuckpointing did work for me last year. It's been a while. I guess it was OK. Overall, I'd give them a B. I have recommended them.”

“I think they did a fine job I didn't have any problem with it, nothing really stood out necessarily. I'd grade them a B+/A-.”

“They did a really good job cleaning up. It was chimney work. They're an A.”

“They're great. They're on time and did a good job. Everybody who came to the site was very good at communicating. Everything they did was good. I'd give them an A rating.”

“They were very professional. They gave me an estimate. They e-mailed me choices for the brick. I thought I'd picked something that was very close to my brick, the day they said they were going to come they came. The first day they said they were going to come they had to cancel it because they said the brick was wrong. Then they came back another day, they finished the work and the brick was just not the brick that I picked out. That's my only complaint. He gave me $1 off and I accepted it at that time. I guess I just wanted to get it off my plate and be done with it. But people notice that the brick is not a good color. It is really not. I don't think it's anything near the brick that they sent me in that picture, they said it was I don't believe it. It's brown brick, my brick is gray. I have to call it average, it looks like the quality is fine, it looks OK I don't know I'm not up there. Everything that they did as far as the estimate, the time they were going to come out, all that stuff was - they held trust to their whatever they said they were going to do but like I said the brick is not right. The brick is not right. I really think everything that they did was good. The way they present themselves, the way they answer questions, timely and all that other stuff it wa good, it wa an A. But the fact that my brick is wrong and they're trying to blame me for it, I don't' really accept that. I really think they did wrong on that so that's why I'm dropping it to C.”

“No complaints.”

“The work is fine. I'd give them an A.”

“I've used them a number of times in a couple of different buildings. Their workmanship is good, they do what they say they're going to do, and they clean up. I was really pleased with their part of the service. They reduced the height of a chimney in my garage and capped it for me. I'd give them an A. They were excellent.”

“They were able to schedule me quickly, they were very thorough in their explanation of the process, and their price was very fair. They did some tuck-pointing on my chimney as well as a rebuild of the chimney above the roofline. I chose them because of the price as well as the speed with which they could start the job. Other companies weren't able to start until later in the summer. I give them an A-.”

“They structured things, they were punctual and had good timing, and they got the work done in the time frame that they expected. There was an issue that came up when I inspected the job, and they came right back and fixed it appropriately. I had good responsiveness from the office. I think they clean things up pretty good. All in all, I was very pleased with the job. It wasn't just a tuck-pointing job—they actually had to take a part of the chimney and rebuild it. I’d give them an A.”

“I would say it was mediocre, the work itself was fine. It took them two months to remove the form for the chimney cap after I called and called and called. They did the work beginning to middle September and it was mid November before they finally removed the form. The owner is the salesperson and I think he did a great job. I think it was the back office is severely lacking follow up coordination. I would probably shop around a lot more, the follow up was so bad I didn't have time to deal with it, they should have been more organized. I would grade them a C+.”

“We did have work done, and everything was fantastic. Everything was just very well professionally handled, and the final product was great—really, there's nothing to say negative. They tuck pointed a bunch of area in a house, chimney in house. I give them an A+.”

“I had a positive experience for sure. They tuck-pointed and sealed the chimneys. They were great—very professional, knowledgeable, and timely. I would rate them as an A.”

“They worked on our fireplace and did a good job with everything we needed them to do. I would describe their customer service as very good. I'd give them an A.”

“After they left we found a lot of they did kind of a sloppy job and left a mess on our property and that was pretty dissatisfying. I didn't call about the mess. They offered to fix it but we had already fixed it by then. And then we called them because there was ice forming on part of the chimney and we were concerned and the guy said it's normal. But we still don't really know if it's normal because it's big chunks of ice coming from our chimney in the winter. I would grade them a C. There was a lot of debris in our gutters and marks on our gutter that can't be fixed. So they could have protected the side of the home a lot better than they did and cleaned up the mess that they made. And the tuck-pointing was a mess so there are a few issues with their work.”

“I did have a positive experience, by and large. If there's one thing I felt they could really improve on is returning their messages to customers. I called several times, there was no answer, left in the message, I never did get any response, so I just felt like it was no, there was no, return call coming my way. Eventually they did call me, get the work done, the work was satisfactory, so there's no issue there, it was just communication. They did some tuckpointing on the chimney. I think because she was able to give me a quote fairly quickly, actually the same day I called, and I thought the quote was pretty reasonable, so those two factors made the decision easy for me. It was at my daughter's house, I wasn't actually there, I have no reason to say it wasn't good but I'd say good. I would give them a B.”

“They are a very good company. The owner's very personable, acknowledging, knowledgeable, experienced, and they work hard. The job's done right and fast. The most recent one, just last year, just tuck pointed my chimney, but about ten years before they tuck pointed the whole house. Initially it was the price. First time I used them they had the best price than anybody else, and then once they did such a great job for that type of work, I'd go back to them where price wouldn't be an issue. I would give them an A+, definitely.”

“I love them. I had an extremely positive experience with them. They were on time, and they did the work like I requested. They just started and kept working until they were done. And they cleaned up after themselves, and it looks great. They took down about the top part of my chimney, salvaged the vintage brick, lined my flues, reconstructed the chimney and prepped the caps on, poured cap, concrete molding, that were on the top. I had three companies out to bid, they seemed like they were the most experienced, and they were in the middle of the pre-bid. I would give them an A+.”

“They're right on with their pricing, they did a very good job, and they worked really good. There were a couple of spots they missed, and when I called, they came back and finished the job. They rebuilt a chimney for me and did some tuck-pointing on my brick home. I called them, and I liked the owner a lot. Actually, the owner came out and gave me an estimate, and I talked to him. He was booked up a lot with his work, so he promised the price that he initially gave me even though I waited until the spring to get the work done. I would give them an A; they were excellent.”

“They did a good job, and they were very knowledgeable. The person who came out was very knowledgeable, they did the work quickly and efficiently, and they cleaned up after themselves. No extras—it was just as contracted. They tuck-pointed an area in my house that needed it, but they also tuck-pointed a couple of chimneys in the house. Their foreman impressed me with his knowledge of what he was going to do and how he explained it. I would give them an A.”

“I had a positive experience. The price was reasonable, they were on time, etc, etc. They did tuckpointing the chimney. I would give them a B-.”

“They were a really good company. I like everything about them. They did the chimney, and I would give them an A.”

“They were clean, they worked fast, they did the job properly, and they matched my brick perfectly. They did the chimney. We were trying to get two or three bids, and they seemed more reasonable and maybe a little more knowledgeable than the other company. I would give them an A+.”

“They did a very good job on my fireplace. They came out fairly quickly, they did the work in two days, it was done professionally, and it was a reasonable price. Their price was lower than the other estimate that I got. I would give them an A.”

“Well, they quoted me a price, they stuck to the price, they came when they said they were going to come, they did the job and then they left. That's all I want. I had to get a chimney—I had some issues with my chimney and they fixed that. I'd give them an A.”

“They did what they were supposed to do. The price was fair. They put a new chimney cap on an existing chimney. I thought their price was better than another company I had used for some other work. I'd give them an A.”

“The guy I dealt with was nice, he was a nice guy. They did some brickwork on my chimney and he cleaned out the chimney. I'd give them a B-.”

“The owner genuinely cared about the service. They tucked and they did some tuckpointing and they did realignment of a chimney. I chose them just because of the reviews. I went off the reviews. I'd probably grade them as a B.”

“What I liked about my service from Affordable Tuckpointing Pros was that they took care of everything without me really having to be involved, and they got the job done. They fixed part of my chimney and put a new cap it. This was my first time using them, and I might use them again for additional service. The scheduling was a bit difficult, though—it took a long time to get the schedule to work.”

“It was fine. Well, it appears they did a good job and knew what they were doing. They did some tuckpointing on the side of the building and they redid the two chimneys. I don't remember specifically, other than the ones that came out. I preferred Affordable Tuckpointing. I'd give them an A.”

“It was fine, not great but positive as opposed to negative is the best way to say it. Well, I mean, it was positive, no, it was one notch above neutral, so, positive range. They put a wood burning fireplace in, they replaced a couple of chimney's liners and did some tuckpointing. They finished the job. I would grade them a C+ or a B-.”

“They came in on the day that they were supposed to, they did the job to my satisfaction, and they didn't leave any mess or anything like that. They made sure that they left a clean site here after they were done. They were working on resurfacing my one chimney. I have two chimneys, and there were sheet metal casts on them that were rusting, so they reconditioned those with a special corrosion-resistant paint. This was my first time using them, and I think if I had the need to, I would use them again. I'd give them an A. As far as reconditioning the casts on the chimneys, I would certainly recommend them, because they did a nice job for me.”

“They were very professional. It was a job well done. They did a good job. They did a full house tuckpointing job and also, they did a chimney rebuild on top of it. Their pricing was really good. I dealt directly with the owner, I didn't have to deal with the salesperson and so he was very hands on and on top of that, he actually did the house on the corner of my block as well. They had spoken very highly of him so I took all that data and came to the conclusion they would've been the best vendor and they did a great job. I would give them an A.”

“There were some hiccups in the beginning, but, they came back the next day and then made everything right. So, I hired them to tuckpoint the chimney and also a couple basement window lintels they were going to replace and tuckpoint them. And they also did some spot tuckpointing. I got quotes from a couple of different places. The plan that they offered me suggested...the other company was only going to, basically, patch things up as far as, like, where we needed tuckpointing around the window lintel. They suggested a plan that would prevent the need for future work. Their plan was more preventative than the other company, so I would give them a B because the way that the work was managed, they did the tuckpointing first and it seemed like they just kind of left a guy with a grinder and no mortar and no ladder and, the first day, he went around and took out a lot of places where he said there were problems in the tuckpointing and did way more—we probably ended up getting more tuckpointing than we paid for because, I think, he just had time to kill. And then they came back and they doing the spot tuckpointing and after the first day, there were three different colors of mortar in the tuckpointing. And they didn't even have time to start the chimney which was the big job and, you know, I called and I talked to them and the next day they sent somebody out, they came out again, and they got it all done and it looks fine. So, I mean, if they had done it all right the first day, it would be an A. But see, they did come back and take care of it the next day so, and we're happy with the work that was done.”

“I'd call them outstanding. Great communication, you know, they provided very high value relative to other quotes I got, responsive, you know, I mean, tuckpointing is not something that most people get a phD in, I don't know much about that, it sort of goes with owning a home. But, I think that the owner being involved and making recommendations and just being very credible in their communications and, you don't want to go the cheap route on stuff like this and get short but that's why I referred to what I would quote a very high value. Sure, it's not the cheapest, not the most expensive, but they were really doing the right thing for us, which I really appreciated. They rebuilt our chimney and then we had, I don't remember the name of the current work it is over window, and I was just saying, he identified, like, OK, here comes the 'this needs to be fixed' thing that wasn't part of the story but had others looked, I mean, you could just see it needed to be set. I forget what it's called. It's basically part of the structure above a window, there's like a metal rod and they make sure it creates support for the bricks above where the window inserts into the, you know. And then they just cleaned up and did general tuckpointing of other work around the house and I think he did that, you know, just being here and didn't try to create additional charge for that. And they were really timely; they got it all done fast. I would give them an A.”

“They did nice work for me, in my home. They would make small modifications on the fly that I hoped would be done. Sometimes contractors can get stuck in mud, they won't veer, Chris the owner he was very good in fact he came in and did one part of the job on his own he put the upper cap on a chimney that I have, he threw that in on the end. It was good relationship they were on time, they were time in their execution of work couldn't ask for more. They tuck pointed one side of my house the East of my house and a little bit on the North side of my house was a nice job. And they replaced four of the lentils those are the supports over the doors and windows when at time will rust out as they rust they expand and then they start to knocking bricks out of alignment. So they did that also, some chimney repair, the lentils and then tuck pointing the entire side of the house. I would grade them A with excellent no complaints. I get the publication, I didn't find them in the Best Picks but when I got it there they were. I liked the guy he came out he was prompt just to give me an estimate and everything. I had five different tuck pointers come out, Affordable got it on the basis very prompt they were no the lowest bid but almost and I couldn't have asked for more.”

“They're good guys. You know, they pretty much showed up when they said they would, which is kind of rare. They did the work on time and, you know, everything went real smooth. They gave me an estimate, they made all their appointments promptly and it all worked out well. Well, they've done two jobs for me actually. They did some tuckpointing on my chimney and they also, the chimney work, that was probably maybe a year ago or so and then maybe about six months ago they did, well, it was in the summer. Actually, it was probably in last spring. I had some concrete driveway issues. They made a trench. I had a rain gutter that was spilling on the driveway and the driveway was sloped so it ran back to the house. Well, they cut a trench in the driveway so the rainwater could flow across the driveway. First of all, they were local and I had talked to a couple, maybe one or two other companies, just through a phone interview. Didn't really care for them. Took a pass at the other people and just went with these guys. I'd give them an A.”

“They did a good job. They reconstructed the chimney, the liner from the roof to the basement, and then from the rear to the tuck-pointing—they did multiple items, but the main thing was the chimney reconstruction. I've been using them for six or seven months, and I'd give them an A+. They did a good job.”

“Affordable Tuckpointing Pros took care of an outdoor chimney problem for me. They responded immediately and did it quickly. It was great. I was very pleased with the work. It was a really tough job, and they took care of it. They’re A+.”

“They rebuilt my chimney for me, and they did a very nice job. I was pleased with the owner, who was very informative and took time to explain everything to me. His crew did a really good job. I would say it was A+ work. I was quite pleased with it.”

“They showed up when they said they were going to show up, and they did a nice job. There was a little bit of follow-up that they had to do, but they understood that. Overall, working with Affordable Tuckpointing was a very pleasant experience. They did some tuck-pointing, and they replaced the chimney cap. The workers were very nice and clean, and they did a great job. They didn't leave anything around. It was my first time using them, and I'd tell someone interested in hiring them to expect good service. I'd give the company an A+.”

“They were just polite and nice and told us every minute what they were doing. They cleaned up after themselves. Affordable Tuckpointing was superior—they really were. They rebuilt our entire chimney, which is three stories high—huge job. Their cleanup was complete. I would absolutely use the company again. I called up three or four companies, and I just felt like they were the one to go with. I was really impressed with the guy who came over. He knew what he was doing, and he appeared to be really honest, which turned out to be absolutely true. Affordable Tuckpointing gets an A+ on everything.”

“The company did very good; they did everything they said they would do, and the cost was affordable. They repaired a chimney problem I had and also some masonry problems. They got everything correct on the first visit. This is the first time I’ve had them do work for me; I don't recall how I chose them. I give them an A+ grade.”

“Affordable Tuckpointing Pros did a wonderful job. They were on time and very courteous—no problems at all. They did some tuck-pointing work on the outside of the fireplace and chimney. They were very nice. They deserve an A+.”

“Affordable Tuckpointing did some work—chimney repairs—and they worked out fine. I would probably recommend them to others.”

“They replaced the crown on our chimney. The quality of work was excellent, and I would use them again if I had a need. Affordable Tuckpointing certainly gets an A.”

“They rebuilt part of our chimney and replaced part of it with a cap, and they did a really good job with matching the bricks and mortar. They were very friendly, easy to work with, and efficient. They did the job very quickly, and it’s held up—A+.”

“They did a nice job. They were very polite and were there on time—just in general. They did tuck-pointing; they had to rebuild part of our chimney, actually, and they did a little tuck-pointing on the house. The workers and their cleanup were good. They did a really good job. This was my first time using Affordable Tuckpointing, and I would use them again. I would grade them an A+.”

“Affordable Tuckpointing Pros did exactly what they said they were going to do and did a fine job. They rebuilt the top eight feet of my chimney and redid the tuck-pointing inside my firebox. The workers seemed really knowledgeable, did a nice job, and cleaned up afterward. You never would have known they were here. I’d give them an A. They did a nice job.”

“Affordable Tuckpointing was very good—very helpful—and they were on time. Everything about them was very good. I had backed up smoke in the house because I had a fireplace, and there were cracks in the chimney. I don't really know what they did, but they did a good job. The price was good, too. It was an A+ job.”

“They did the work that they said they would; it was tuck-pointing, and it was completed. It was up on the chimney. I wasn't able to go up there, but I could see no visible negative comments. I believe I would use them again. I saw them doing a job in my neighborhood. The work was completed satisfactorily, so I had no reason to call them back. What I was able to see from a visible inspection was what they said it would be. Their rating is the very first one— A.”

“So far, so good—they did a good job. We haven't had any problem since, knock on wood. I think this company did some chimney work for us. We got other estimates besides theirs. They were very, very good. They did some chimney work for us, and they did a great job. I asked my husband if we had any problems that I was unaware of, and he said, ‘No.’ They cleaned up well after their service, and I felt like they were able to do the job in a timely manner. We'll definitely use them again if we have some additional services that we might need. I'll give them an A because we haven't found any flaws in their work. I would tell my friends that they basically came in and did a good job. They were on time, they cleaned up, and they did a good job; they did a very good job.”

“They were complete in their estimates and explanations, and they came and finished when they said they would. They were very good about the work that also had to be done for the flue replacement, as far as the work in the basement. They fixed some of the flue work from the furnace that they felt was not done in the most efficient manner, so they went above and beyond. I chose them for service based on the estimates that I had; they were the lowest estimate that included all the work that I thought needed to be done. I can't think of anything else to say about Affordable Tuckpointing. All in all, they were very positive in their approach, and I felt very positive about the work they did. The workmen—the guys who came to do the work—were very easy to get along with. They were very good about explaining what they thought needed to be done and then going ahead and doing exactly what they said. I'd give them an A+.”

“They were good when they put in a new chimney for me. The quality of the work was good; the chimney was good, and the caulking was fair. The chimney was excellent, but the caulking—the base—I didn't think was that good. I did contact the company, but they couldn't do much about it. This is the type of company that has the products that maybe I would use again. This was my first time using Affordable Tuckpointing, I would maybe recommend them to others. The workers were excellent, and the cleanup was excellent.”

“They did our chimney. They put a liner and reburn tubes in our chimney. They're excellent. . I'm in a house that's closing in on a hundred years old, so I can understand that certain things do kind of give up along the way. That's one of the reasons I went with them. I think I got two other estimates, and I was very impressed with the professionalism of this company. They deserve an A.”

“They did the job that they were supposed to do; I had my chimney tuck-pointed again because some parts of it were coming loose. I feel like I received quality work from Affordable Tuckpointing. They did the job that they were supposed to do, and it was a reasonable price. I would say this company deserves an A.”

“They just did good work. I had some deteriorating brick and chimney stuff, and they rebuilt one side where it was bulging. It was very good. They cleaned up behind themselves well, and the customer service was fine. They did very good work; I was satisfied.”

“We ended up going with Affordable Tuckpointing. They rebuilt the chimney because it just kept falling apart. They advertise for chimney repair. I would use them again. I would give them an A rating—so far, so good—and I would recommend them to others. The cleanup was fine. They cleaned up well and gave us extra brick that they didn't use. It was fine.”
