Chimney and stone work

Otto's replaced our chimney. They also removed cracked decorative stonework surrounding our front porch and parged, as well as fixing some masonry cracks.

The estimator sized up what needed doing but also what didn't. The result was a fair and reasonable estimate.

The crew was efficient and focused on their work. Quality is excellent. They went beyond on filling stairway cracks so the results look much better.

The only area for minor improvement is cleanup of driveway where scaffolding had been.

Quality was excellent and the crew very efficient

cement walkway and replacing stairs

From start to finish you are treated to outstanding customer service which is a rarity in today's world. You start the process with a clear and detailed estimate. Followed by professional workmen who know what they are doing, are courteous, efficient and hard working. They show up when they are supposed to, keep you informed every step of the way and are willing to accommodate a change in the scope of the project even once the work had been started. They will only consider a job completed when you are 100% satisfied with the end result. Dealing with the office staff is an equally pleasant experience.
We can't compliment them enough on their excellent customer service and caliber of workmanship. We highly recommend them.

New concrete for shared driveway and carport

We got multiple quotes and settled on Otto's because they were a local company, and knew they had a good reputation. I've done plenty of renovation work over the years and I'm definitely not a newbie. John Baxter was able to explain the work in detail, answer my many questions, and ultimately win our trust. The job went well, finished on time with no surprises, and looks great. Definitely would use Otto's again and would recommend them for similar work.

New front porch

We retained Otto’s Masonry to build a new front porch for our house. Otto and his staff were unfailingly professional and responsive throughout the design and construction process. Special thanks to Eduardo and his hardworking team. All work was done to the highest standards and without delays. I’d definitely recommend Otto’s Masonry if you want a top quality job.

Cement Work

Initially met with Brian for an estimate. Happily came back as needed for another explanation of the quote given. Job was done within the time frame mentioned & Otto periodically came to check in on the job as the contracted team worked fairly quickly! The team went above and beyond to make us happy with the work required and we’d definitely recommend using Otto’s Masonry for any patchwork/restructuring of cement work needed.

New stairs on front porch, walkway paving

I called Otto’s based on a recommendation. They explained everything, provided several options and answered a myriad of questions. They arrived when expected, communicated the progress of the work and listened to our concerns. They took a bit longer than expected to get everything done right. Their work was meticulous and the end result was beautiful. Thank you!

Concrete Porch

Once again Otto's team completed a major project at my home. Right from the estimate by Brian, to the hard work by John, Sasha, Egardo & Kiran to the artistry of Idrees, the skill and commitment to quality work of this team is apparent. Professional, reliable, considerate and skilled are all terms that apply to Otto's crew.
I highly recommend Otto's masonry to anyone in search of a company that proudly stands behind its work.

Rebuild of Large Stone Front Porch and Stone Stairway

I am delighted to provide the highest recommendation for Otto Masonry. We engaged them for an extensive rebuild of our large stone front porch and stairway. Every team member I dealt with was helpful, professional and very experienced. Brian, the estimator, was patient and thorough in gauging the scope of our work. Marie Jo at the office was charming. Joseph and John completed the masonry and were absolute perfectionists. And they are so nice! As the work progressed, Joseph and John suggested refinements to our plan in many small ways, which I gratefully accepted. The quality and look of the outcome exceeded my expectations.

Because this was a big investment, I got 5 quotes at the outset and Otto Masonry was in mid-range of these. Of these, Otto Masonry stood out as the most quality oriented, thorough and professional (and nice!).

Tuckpointing/brick replacement century home

We called Otto to tuckpoint, parge wall under the back deck, and replace 65 spalled bricks on the chimney breast and the front porch pillar on my son's east Toronto semi after the super job he did on our house 13 yrs ago. Otto did the estimate promptly and checked back regularly as the work progressed. The crew headed by Eduardo, were polite, efficient, and cleaned up after themselves. The replacement bricks were such a good match that you could hardly tell them from the 100-year-old ones already in place and they took the time to colour-match the mortar. They pressure washed the finished areas to remove any excess mortar 'stains' and also washed any dust that fell into the A/C unit. They deserve all the accolades they get on HomeStars. A quality, solid, trustworthy business.
