They provided me with a solution to a long time issue with rain water seeping in to a crack in my basement wall and also directed my downspout away from the house. I kept putting off calling anyone for fear the costs. The price was more than reasonable and the work was done professionally in just one day. It's such a relief to have this problem fixed. hide

Most recently Andy came out during the peak of busy season for a simple service call as i was having a few issues with gutter leakage. Andy came out within a few days of me reaching out with the problem. Quick, easy and honest service all around - won't be calling anyone else. Thank you! hide

Masonry Masters suggested the repair route rather than trying to sell us a full on foundation replacement that we didn't need, and I really appreciated that approach. Scheduling was easy. The crew was fast and ready to be flexible when they ran into some tougher than expected spots to repair. They also answered all my questions and gave us good advice on how to paint and preserve the repair foundation. I've already referred Masonry Masters to a couple friends based on our experience. hide

John's Waterproofing and Terra Firma gave me quotes from between $6,500-11,000 for doing a full on demo and waterproofing of my basement. When both companies were here, neither of them really bothered to identify the source of the problem or to assess the particular situation at my property--it was all about selling me a 'system'. Enter Byron from Masony Waterproofing and Drainage Masters. He was here yesterday, carefully scrutinized every detail of my property, gave me lots of free DIY advice and detailed a few plans of action based on my need should the situation continue once the rain started again. It's been raining all day since Byron's visit and there isn't a drop of water in my basement and he didn't ask me for a penny. He gave me some basic things to try, involving my gutters and exterior drainage situation and it seems his instincts were correct--basic trial and error. Byron generously shared his knowledge and I learned a great deal in the 30 mins. he was here. He is a straight shooter, knows his craft, assimilates knowledge from different fields (so many companies seem just to specialize in either masonry, waterproofing OR drainage) and beams integrity and trustworthiness. I will be directing all of my future drainage business to Masonry Masters, no doubt about it. hide

He educated us against being sold costly dry wells and french drains (which is exactly what the competition tried to do at 10x the price). He was up front and his team got the work done efficiently. Problem solved! The end result looks great and was a great price. hide

Byron came in and looked at the situation and helped us come up with the most cost effective mitigation... and not only was it cost effective, it is a long term water solution.It has been over a year and a half and our water proofing has gone through many seasons of testing and not a drop of water anywhere it wasn't suppose to be.We recently had a minor issue with the sump pump and Rich (Byron's lead guy) came right over and fixed it without a problem. Always a huge relief to see they still support you after everything has been paid for!!! hide

We called Byron, he came out promptly, reviewed the problem, and we agreed on the scope of work. The guys came out last week, and immediately went to work on both the inside and the outside. They cleaned off old skim coating that was peeling off in places on the inside, and applied a sealant. At the same time, the rest of the crew was digging down to the base of the foundation - all by hand because of access issues. After two long days for the outside crew, the exterior of the foundation was patched, waterproofed, and a vapor barrier installed, and the trench filled in. The guys did a great job cleaning up after the very messy work, and even made sure that the dirt along the side sloped away from the house to help direct future run off. While I hope that we don't need them for any further waterproofing, Masonry Masters would be my first and probably only call if needed. And, I wouldn't hesitate to call them for any other masonry work needed around the house. Excellent company to do business with - professional, thorough and top quality.We had recently purchased an older home in Portland. The sellers had had extensive and expensive repairs done to address seepage that developed after the heavy rains in December 2015. We found seepage to be continuing in May, however. Called a number of well rated firms, all of whom, other than Masonry Masters, proposed their standard solutions, which would remediate but not necessarily resolve the problem. Byron from Masonry Masters came out, said he couldn't make a proposal because he didn't know what the problem was, but made suggestions on how to identify it. We took those steps, found a likely source and let Byron know. Even after that, he suggested a few other things to do to verify if that was the main problem or just part of it. Did the tests, verified, and let Byron know. 2 days later his guys were out, spent most of the day doing the repair work inside and out. They were careful, cleaned up the work area, and were genuinely nice guys, and very professional. This solution was less than 10% of the other "standard solutions". A very professional, very good contractor whom I feel confident will do the rightjob very well and at a fair price. hide

Not only did they give us a really good price to waterproof our foundation but the crew that did the work was amazing. They showed up on time, worked hard and did a great job. Most impressive was how clean and tidy their work space was despite digging 8 - 10 down to reach the bottom of our foundation. When they left we couldn't tell that anything had been disturbed! I highly recommend this company. hide

Cost, while not inexpensive, was quite reasonable given the amount of labor involved. The crew went above and beyond with several details and kept things very clean throughout the multi-day process.

Two were very expensive - tens of thousand of dollars and required anchors throughout the effected foundation area. Byron with Masonry, Waterproofing and Drainage Masters came out and gave us a quote for the drainage system and a small repair to the cracks with an advice of monitoring them for 6 months to a year. Byron's quote was very reasonable. Naturally, we as the home owners were very confused. Do we need to do a major repair and sink tens of thousands of dollars into it, or do water drainage system and see how things will go? We finally decided to hire an independent engineer who could evaluate our issue and make a recommendation. We paid $500 for the engineer to come out. After her evaluation, she made the same recommendation as Byron. The engineer issued a report and we hired Byron and his crew for the immediate work. They came as scheduled, called the day before to make sure we were still expecting them, were very clean, professional, quick and thorough. We were very pleased to see when they were done by 4 pm the same day. At the end of the day, we had a drainage system in the basement, new sup pump, water evacuation, new vapor barrier and our foundation cracks were filled and crack gages installed to monitor the shift of the foundation (if any) and all for a fraction of the cost we were quoted from the large companies that first came up in google search (due to their advertising expenditures). While there is still a chance that we might have to do a larger foundation repair, by all accounts this chance is very small, as Byron and his crew took care of the problem that caused the foundation shift in the first place. We would highly recommend Masonry, Waterproofing and Drainage Masters LLC for their professionalism, speed, mastery, and affordability. hide

The chimney was falling apart, there was missing mortar, moss and plants growing on it, the previous owners had painted the entire thing, with the wrong paint, so any moisture that got in to the cracks was destroying it further and the flu was rusted through. the first 3 companies that came out for estimates said that the chimney was toast and they either wanted to tear the whole thing down and rebuild ($10000-$25000) it or talk us into doing an insert which didn't actually fix the issue.Byron and his team came out and we were shocked to learn a tear down/ rebuild/ insert was not at all necessary, Byron quoted us a much better rate and outlined a simple plan to recover the chimney at an amazingly better rate! I had so much anxiety about the initial quotes, something didn't sit right, there had to be a better solution. I have a sinking feeling in my stomach when i think about all the time and money we may have wasted. We are SO pleased with the work they did, the chimney looks better than it did before and we are LOVING our cozy fireplace.Thank you guys so much! hide

Found this company via internet search and called them to view my problem and recommend a solution. Mike came out promptly and provided a quote to replace the affected underground pipe. Quote was clear and very reasonable. We got the work scheduled but the date was pulled in one day based on weather. Great communication throughout the process. Excellent results including concrete work at the sidewalk/curb. Highly recommend this company based on their knowledge, expertise, and experience. Also recommend discussing payment options and whether you need to be present for the work during that first on-site visit. hide
