Carlos Pantoja67 days agoJust had a complete chimney renewal done by North Shore and they did a killer job. It went from looking like it was about to fall over to looking brand new.

North Shore did an amazing job replacing an entire wall of brick veneer that was degrading on the side of my house. The new brick seamlessly matches with the existing brick and you can tell that a high level attention to detail was used to complete the job. There were a few hick-ups along the way but project manager Luke and crew lead Roman went above and beyond to make certain I was informed throughout the process and that I received the best value for the work that was done and they even threw in a few extras. I wouldn't hesitate to contact them again if I need other masonry work done to my house in the future.Posted on ThumbtackDale Prechodko234 days agoIt was a pleasure doing business with Luke. He was very personable and professional. Juan and crew did a timely, thorough and beautiful job. I would highly recommend North Shore Masonry to anyone.Posted on Thumbtack

My house is 70 years old and they were able to match the brick color perfectly. I'm so impressed with the guys and the company. I'll recommend them to anyone who needs masonry work done.Posted on Thumbtack
Sandra Paterakos258 days agoNorth Shore Brickwork, Inc. was amazing! Everyone was so knowledgeable, easy to work with, and so nice! And Juan's Crew went above and beyond with all of their tuckpointing and repair of our chimney. I will definitely recommend this wonderful company to all my friends...oh wait, I already have:)Posted on Thumbtack
Renee Sclafani273 days agoNorth Shore completed the masonry scope for a new build for us. They did a great job for us. Completed on schedule and on budget with excellent quality.Posted on Thumbtack
James280 days agoI had a good experience working with Luke and Julio at NS Masonry. The overall craftsmanship was better than I expected, and Julio who rebuilt my front steps did a great job. My front steps were degrading due to weather and elements and NS Masonry offered me a few options to repair or replacement my front steps and platform. The process was relatively easy to pick the best solution. I do recommend having them bring out the pavers/bluestone/etc. before you select your solution as its hard to evaluate from pictures. I would recommend NS Masonry to my neighbors.Posted on Thumbtack
Laura Latragna290 days agoLuke is an incredible salesperson- he is upfront and honest! Edward is an expert just look at the transformation the top photo is the after- Simply amazing couldn't be happier with!!Posted on ThumbtackTony Vaughn313 days agoLuke and the North Shore Brickwork team were fantastic! After having used multiple masonry companies for different projects, we saw a post from the owner on Facebook and decided to reach out JUST before signing with another company. From quote to completion, everything was smooth, fair, and professional. Luke was VERY communicative and made the entire process quick easy. The crew was solid, did great work, and came back very quickly to finish some final details. The end result - tuckpointing, glass block windows and a new sistered wood beam - all look awesome and we're already planning to use them again for an interior brick project soon. Thanks again, Luke & team!Posted on Thumbtack
Frederick Dempsey315 days agoWe had major masonry repairs on two chimneys and two flying buttresses, and North Shore Masonry did a fine job!Posted on ThumbtackKate Wise336 days agoExcellent work! We could not be more pleased. We have a front stone wall with an iron cupola that was falling apart. They came and tuck pointed the whole wall and rebuilt our columns to support the iron cupola. It all looks brand new! Great work and pleasant people to work with.Posted on Yelp
Era S.375 days agoLate post. Really late post. Excellent work. Communication was great!! Would hire again.Posted on YelpSidney G.380 days agoNorth Shore carried out exterior repairs and replacements for the exterior of our residence, as well as the brick fence that surrounds our property. After the work commenced, I had a couple questions and concerns about some areas of our exterior that may have been missed or overlooked. Luke Bergman, the North Shore Project Manager, was extremely attentive to my questions and visited promptly to meet with me and work out a solution with myself and his crew that made everyone happy. He showed that our faith in him and his team was warranted, and we are very satisfied with the final result. We ended this process being very satisfied with the way Luke and North Shore's crews handle business! 5 Stars!Posted on Yelp
Lisa G.381 days agoWe did an extensive tuckpointing job on our home and used North Shore Masonry and Concrete. We were very happy with their work, their attention to detail, and communication with us. I would highly recommend them.Posted on YelpLeslie N.428 days agoWe needed our brick wall repaired. crumbling bricks in many areas. I called and right away Courtney (a treasure) in the office answered and and answered all our questions and sent a wonderful salesman named Luke over the next day. he assessed our wall and wrote up 3 options. Good, Better and Best. we took the Best one. Do it right. The workmen. Greg and Marcin were wonderful. They took the job very seriously and professional.Posted on YelpLuke H.741 days agoOld wall/window was leaking. They installed limestone sills, a new brick arch to match the rest of the architecture, and removed the old glass block. Fixed the leaking!+1Posted on YelpAnne C.1451 days agoWhat a great company! I had crumbling wing walls along with a broken exterior window sill and following an extensive review of a number of companies, I chose North Shore am am so glad I did! Based on reviews, I trusted this company to take care of this project and my trust was not misplaced. I have a perfect result thanks to Mr. Rivas's team of the nicest, most professional folks you could want. The entire process was easy and I want to offer a special thanks to Joan for handling my questions and concerns. You won't be disappointed with the results this company can offer.Posted on YelpAna K.1465 days agoNorth Shore did a wonderful job with all the tuckpointing and lintel bar replacement work that our 3 story building in Oak Park needed. They spent a lot of time talking all the issues over with us before they started work and as work went on they sent really good pictures on the progress and few other issues that popped up along the way. I had 5 other companies come to give me estimates and theirs was in the middle cost wise and reasonable for all the work needed. A lot of the others did not spend the time that North Shore did explaining the work needed when they came. They were very prompt every day and the crew was very professional and pleasant to work with. They were great about clean up every day too and especially at the end. The entire staff at North Shore was a pleasure to work with. I would definitely hire them again.Posted on YelpMichael N.1793 days agoVerified
Happy with their work on our chimney. We had crack bricks and they were able to find a close match to our present bricks. They were neat and they cleaned up when he job was done. Would use them again if needed. Mike N.Posted on YelpMeg H.1817 days agoNorth Shore did a great job fixing our chimney. They came out to evaluate it and explained everything well, the estimate also was clear and fully described the work to be done, and they were prompt in coming out and completing the work. The crew performing the repairs communicated with us and checked with us during the process, they completed the work on schedule, and the chimney looks a lot better, but, more importantly, is now stable and water tight.Posted on YelpMary D.1996 days agoLes and his crew did extensive repairs to our very old and formerly crumbling condo this past summer. North Shore was the 5th masonry company we've used and the ONLY one to fix our complicated masonry issues. They aren't afraid to get into the messy details, like finding matching really old bricks or working in difficult to reach locations. They explained that it was an iterative process to fix masonry leaks when the source isn't evident, and they were right and they stuck with it for a very reasonable price. As an added bonus, they have a partnership of sorts with an excellent roofing company, O'Hara's Son, who also did excellent work for us. I don't know which brought the other to us, but the two of them solved some horrible complicated problems that no other company could solve. We are so happy our excellent management, Prairie Shores, recommended them. I can't tell you how nice it is not to come home to another ceiling fallen in after a rainstorm.Posted on YelpDavid H.2269 days agoNorth Shore replaced cracked mortar and secured several loose bricks at the base of my house in Northbrook. Some others were replaced for cosmetic reasons, while fresh caulking was applied as needed to my windows. The guys arrived early and made sure I was completely satisfied. Communication from the company was outstanding from beginning thru my job's completion. Owner Les O'Hara stopped by to confirm my satisfaction, although he didn't wear a face covering. Cleanup could have been a touch better as I found old caulk left on the property. But, I'm nitpicking. North Shore's work is top-notch and I highly recommend them.+1Posted on Home AdvisorAnthony P2630 days agoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Home Advisor.
Install Interlocking Pavers for Driveways & Floors Very skilled,good attitude and good work.Posted on Home AdvisorAri G2632 days agoInstall Interlocking Pavers for Driveways & Floors He provided great customer service and I was very satisfied with the value for what I paid!Posted on Angie's ListEILEEN C.5912 days agoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Angie's List.
The owner came out promptly and gave me an estimate. The work was scheduled in a timely fashion. Two men spent three days working on the project. They were very polite and quiet. They worked hard and did a beautiful job. One small grout line needed more attention after they left. The owner returned and had that line attended to. A very nice experience. I was amazed at how they returned an old floor to its original shine.Posted on Angie's ListNora K.6482 days agoIt was very positive. They offered the best price and they have an Angie's List discount. They were responsive. The only thing I would say that was interesting for future reference is to communicate a specific time frame. We paid a flat amount and it took quite awhile for them to finish the project. It wasn't a problem for us, but for someone who is in a hurry they might need to communicate that to the company. I would hire them again.Posted on Angie's ListSTEVEN N.6925 days agoThe work went well and overall, we are satisfied with the work. In fact, we have contracted with Northshore for some additional work. In general, the work was done on time, they cleaned up the mess each day and the workmen on site were courteous at all times. Where they had to remove some bushes, they replanted them after completing the work and the bushes appear to be thriving. All in all, we give Greg Lemke and Northshore a strong positive recommendation.Posted on Angie's ListANN W.7007 days agoGreg came to the house to provide us with an estimate and started and finished the work in a timely fashion. He set up a scaffolding for himself paying special attention to our plants and the neighbors driveway. When the cutting started he made sure our windows and our neighbors windows were closed. All stones were labeled and reinstalled to maintain the original architecture of our home. The old vent hole was filled in and it was matched with stone and mortar so well you wouldn't even know there was a hole there last month. In regards to the lentals, the old lentals were removed and new ones were replaced. The new ones were coated with an anti-rust membrane and paint. The area was cleaned up at the end of the day.Posted on Angie's ListJONATHAN M.7200 days agoGreg arrived immediately after my phone call to review the project. He was on time and very professional. I received the quote for the job and a copy of his insurance within a few days of discussing the project. I felt the quote was priced right where I had expected (I had two other quotes.) I chose Greg's quote based on the quality of some other work of his that I had seen. The project start was delayed about a week while Greg located bricks that were the exact size of what was already in the house. During this time, there were also numerous discussions on the exact arrangement of the new layout to ensure that I would be happy with the completed project. Once the actual work was started, it was completed within about three days due to good weather. The clean up work after the job was excellent.Load moreVerified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
