New Front Steps

This is my first ever review, but I wanted to post about this experience as Thane from A & E was wonderful to work with.

I am probably a customer with a strong view of what I like, but Thane was patient and gave several quotes until we landed on something I was comfortable with that fit into my budget. I enjoyed shopping for the materials together (we ended up going to 2 different locations until finding something great) and getting realistic feedback about the best product for what I envisioned (AKA "cottage country rustic boulder steps"). Next, Thane and his sidekick were at the job early in the day and worked diligently over several days; they completed the removal of my old walkway, addressed some water/downspout issues I was having and prepped and installed the new steps. All on time and cleaned up afterward. I did a happy dance when it was over as I do love my new steps/front walkway. Thanks Thane!!!

Hi Lori thanks so much for hiring me to create a new entrance way for you. It took a bit of shopping around for the right product but I think we nailed it! We should of added a before picture to show what was existing but it's just a memory now...lol. Don't hesitate to call or text if there is anything I can do for you. It was a pleasure meeting you and I hope you enjoy that new entrance for many years to come.

Reface Front Porch and Create Backyard Patio

First off, we actually found A&E Masonry through HomeStars and decided to contact them due to their excellent reviews here! A&E Masonry owner Thane came out to see the jobs that we wanted to have done - our front porch was crumbling and falling apart, and the patio in our backyard had been piecemealed together over the years with 3 or 4 different types and combinations of inexpensive stone, patio slabs and pressure treated wood - and both areas looked horrible!

Thane was prompt in getting back to us with a quote, as a matter of fact, he took the time to personally deliver the quote and to further discuss our needs and how we would like the job completed (the type of stone we wanted, color options and so on). Thane was incredibly easy to work with - a total professional all the way!

He excavated the backyard first and then broke apart the front steps. He took us over to a stone yard and helped us choose the stone that was used for the sides of the front steps, helped us determine what would look best and what would work best - his expertise was invaluable! We found the stone we wanted for the risers and he was quick to head over there to make sure the stone would work for our needs and placed an order for delivery right away.

Even with all the rain he had to contend with while working, both jobs were completed in 2 weeks! Not only did he arrive early and prompt each day, he treated the job as if he was working on his own home - the immense care and attention that was taken in every detail were so appreciated! He made sure to clean up before leaving each evening and worked through the day without so much as a lunch break.

Thane's workmanship is impeccable, a master mason (as you can see from the before and after photos) and we have never known any contractor, let alone an owner of a company, to spend so much time personally ensuring that everything was to perfection, incorporating our wishes and making sure we were happy - just a real pleasure to deal with and to have someone care so much (kind of the way it should be, but often isn't in this day and age!).

Everyone in the neighborhood stopped to comment on the front steps, people driving by would slow down and some would literally stop so they could take a better look. Friends and neighbors couldn't believe the difference and the excellent workmanship, it turned out incredible!

The patio out back turned out fantastic as well and now our furniture looks even better with an attractive base to sit on - what a difference quality makes!

A&E Masonry is a company I would highly recommend for all your masonry jobs - stonework, cement, pavers, patios, etc. I have absolutely NO hesitation in recommending this company - top notch expertise, professionalism on all levels, hard working, punctual and caring. And the owner Thane is just a really great guy all around. We'll be using A&E Masonry again next spring for some finishing touches along our driveway!

Thanks again for everything Thane, Brian and I are so incredibly happy with the way everything turned out and how amazing it all looks - you need to stop by and see it with the new railing out front and the patio furniture with our little spa out back, it just looks great - we couldn't be happier!

Redid 4 light pillars in much needed repair with 4 new stone ones

Thane did an amazing job on taking off the damaged brick on my 4 light pillars and rebuilding them with a beautiful stone that matches with the house and existing stonework perfectly. Thane was very knowledgeable and helpful in assisting with picking out the right stone. He takes great pride in his workmanship and it shows. I have had many neighbours come by and compliment on his work. He was an absolute pleasure to work with and I would absolutely recommend Thane and A&E Masonry for any stonework you are looking to have done. Thanks so much Thane for doing an amazing job! They look great and I look forward to having you do another project very soon.

Hey Lisa thank you for your awesome review. Was happy to do the work for you. The pillars were in really bad condition and really did need a rebuild. I was totally shocked to here how much another local company had quoted you on the work....totally trying to take advantage of you. Always a good idea for home owners to get 3 quotes to compare pricing like you did.....good on you for doing that. The pillars look great.....your curb appeal has increased 10 fold. Thx again for hiring me to do the work.
