I had an excellent experience working with John and Academy Masonry on a pretty big project doing my driveway and backyard. His quote was competitive but above all I greatly appreciate his professionalism from the start to the end of the project. Communication with John was excellent, his team did a great job throughout and cleaned thoroughly afterwards. I had some trepidation about finding a good contractor because sometimes they don’t follow up on what they promised. But I would highly recommend John and his team. Superb work and experience, thank you John.

John turned our backyard into a beautiful space. If you’re looking for a custom paver patio, look no further than Academy Masonry. John came out when he said he would, gave us a quote and worked with us every step of the way, we were in constant communication. The job was started and completed weeks earlier than his initial estimate, and they did a fantastic job. We couldn’t be happier. Please see attached before and after photos. I highly recommend for all your patio or wall needs!

I needed to repair a chimney, replace a window lintel, and tuckpointing at various places. John gave me honest guidance throughout. He got his crew quickly and finished the project on time. I really enjoyed working with john and his team on this project. I am very happy with the quality of their work and their professionalism. I highly recommend them, and of course, I will use them again in the future.

Working with Academy Masonry was a pleasure from the first time we met throughout our entire project. John is very professional and will go above and beyond your expectations. He keeps you informed throughout the work process. In our project of laying down pavers from our deck to our gazebo, if I wanted a paver changed due to the color variance, he was happy to change it and kept a smile throughout. He explained what he was going to do to get what we expected. After the completion of the job, the following day, I noted that there was a small puddle of water that remained on a small section of the walkway. He immediately told me that he would be out the following morning, and in this case, he kept his word, and of course, within a short period of time it was resolved.There is no question in our minds about having john do more work for us as we need it. We appreciate working with you.

I cannot stress how positive working with john on our front patio, walkway and steps project was from start to finish. There aren't enough superlatives to fully describe how he managed the project, provided a fantastic crew and coordinated additional services of fencing, railings and grate. All done so professionally and kept up on every aspect of the job. I recommend academy masonry and Construction as your definite go to masonry company for all your needs. Thank you john!

Academy Work did an excellent job on our back yard and side entrances. We couldn't be happier!!! They are very reasonable and do amazing work. I especially thank John for scheduling us in between the rainy days!!! Also for his professionalism, knowledge and taking time to explain things and his desire to please and make everything right. He answered all our questions and concerns without hesitation. I felt confident that we were in good hands. Also his crew was very polite, professional, experienced, worked very hard, and efficient. When they were finished they walked us through to inspect their work. We are so glad we chose academy Masonry Work and we will definitely recommend you to anyone. We are very pleased with our beautiful yard, and we would like to thank everyone pleasant experience!!!

John’s team is great! The whole process working with them was very smooth. They were able to schedule the project just one week after the quote for my chimney repair. They came in time, and finished the project nice and clean. They took pictures before and after and explained to me clearly. Very nice job! I will definitely recommend them.

I can not say enough about John and his team. From day one John exemplified professionalism. From the time of the estimate to completion of the job I always felt he was giving 100%. The price was fair and the work was superb. They worked every day, and all day and got the job done way before schedule. With that said, there was something that put John above most. His communication was above and beyond. There was not one time I called him that he either didn’t answer or if he didn’t pick up he would call me back within 5 minutes. In my opinion you can not put a price tag on that. I would highly recommend Academy Mason Work for your next masonry project. You will not be disappointed.

My chimney needed a rebuild from the roofline up. I called five contractors and settled on Academy Masonry. It was a good choice. He said he would call before coming over, and he did, both when coming over for the estimate and for the actual job. He included me in the decision-making process, sending me pictures of different colored bricks and asking which I liked best. His craftsmanship is top notch. He and his worker did a great job cleaning up my property before they left. Would recommend cheers

These guys are quick, professional, and affordable compared to other places we got quotes from. They did a complete tear down and rebuild of the chimney stack and was done in just two days. The end result looks great.

I contacted Academy masonry for brick work for my front yard and john ands his crew did a fantastic job that deserves 5 stars, if not more. They did the work very fast and the quality and detail of the work shows when you look at how the front yard looks now. Their work ethic is incredible, which is hard to find, so I highly recommend academy masonry. and for sure I will be using them again any time I need a reliable and responsible company.

After researching a variety of companies to assist with a paver walkway project we settled on Academy Masonry and couldn't be happier. John and his staff were prompt and professional right from the initial visit for a quote through the install day. Communication was fantastic as john made sure we were prepared for the installation and constantly shared progress updates. John and his staff were conscientious of the scope of the job and made sure they were educating me along the way. I'm looking forward to using Academy Masonry for all of our projects moving forward! Excellent craftsmen we would highly recommend! Thank you for a stress-free, top notch experience!

John rebuilt our exterior brick front steps and landing. He communicated with us regularly during the design phase and gave us detailed updates each day while the work was being done. His craftsmanship is excellent. We are very pleased with the final result, and we would definitely hire John again.

Very professional, knowledgeable and reliable! Came quickly for my estimate and he was very responsive during our communication. John went above and beyond when tuck pointing and repairing my chimney and I couldn’t be happier with his service. Would highly recommend this business and I would definitely use them again for my concrete and tuck pointing needs! Thanks again for everything!

John and his crew are masters in their craft. I had my chimney tuck pointed and a bluestone sill saddle installed. The finished work looks clean and well detailed. Pleased with their work and am going to call academy masonry back for a separate round of masonry projects. Would recommend. A+ service and quality work.

I just hired academy Masonry and construction last week. john is very active & responsive. My 100 year old house in Dorchester needed tuckpointing and a leak into basement repaired. Leak most likely due to seam where brick & cement block wall needed patching. John responded to my call same day, came out & gave me an estimate next day and completed the job a few days later when my scheduled allowed. Fast efficient work. He also repaired crack in my front step and sealed that. Repairs in morning, rain that night, no leak. Very satisfied with his work. Reasonable price. I highly recommend this company.

Academy Masonry did a wonderful job transforming our back yard into a lovely oasis. He had ideas that improved upon what we had thought of. His knowledge and experience give him the ability to create a masterpiece. We are going to use him again for a focal point in the front yard as well!

John and his team did a great job! Repointed the brick, repainted the house, removed and installed new pavers for the patio. He recommended a welder and new railings were installed. My house looks brand new, it looks gorgeous!

Excellent Work ,My front stairs were repaired, and the stucco on my foundation was redone by academy Masonry. No task is too big or small for them. Thanks, I'll see you all on the following project.
