“I called H&R to take a look at my brick home built in the 1800's. Although the inside had been completely renovated, the outside of the home had not been appropriately repointed when renovated. Because of this, we experienced significant leaking and water damage through out the home. During a period of heavy rains, I called H&R to come see the issue and see if they could resolve it quickly. Hugh came over immediately and was able to start the work quickly. I was most impressed with his communication about the project, willingness to be flexible and his promptness and reliability. The office was very professional to deal with and I could tell that Hugh and the team took great pride in the work they were doing. (These character traits seem to be rare with home improvement professionals!). He was here when he said he would be and always left the site clean at the end of the day. The work came out beautifully and left the integrity of this old home intact. Most importantly, after 1 year we have had no leaking! Thank you , Hugh!”

"Hugh and his company did an outstanding job with a natural bluestone and granite patio that framed my inground pool. His quality of workmanship is superb, and I would recommend him to anyone."

"We are so pleased with the new entrance stairs H&R Masonry constructed for us this past spring. We purchased a real fixer-upper a couple years ago and have slowly been restoring it to its original state. The stairs H&R Masonry designed and built for us have gone a long way to giving the house back its character and charm. We had a rough idea of what we wanted to replace our old wooden stairs with, but Hugh took our thoughts and turned them into exactly what we wanted. Plus the stone stairs are so sturdy and well-built we're confident they'll last for years to come. We cannot tell you how many compliments we have received from neighbors, commenting on how much the stairs have improved the look of our home and how impressed they were with how quickly they were created.

Hugh Rice and his team were so professional and friendly. The rain did not want to cooperate the week the steps were being built, but they did not let this delay their progress - working whenever there was a break in the weather and weekends. We would absolutely recommend H&R Masonry to anyone and look to use them for any future masonry projects for our home!"

"Our antique house needed a new chimney to replace the 200+ year old chimney that was threatening to come down with the next wind. We called several contractors and chose H& R Masonry. They were professional, experienced, and timely, finishing the work ahead of schedule. When they were done they cleaned up after themselves, making sure that no debris or building materials were left scattered behind. The result of their work was a fantastic central chimney, totally in keeping with the antique nature of the house. We were more than pleased with H & R and the work they had done. When we purchased our new home and wanted work done on our chimney and fireplace we did not hesitate, we called H & R Masonry because we knew we would have excellent service and workmanship on our new house. We highly recommend them to anyone who wants a job well done."

“H&R's price was more than competitive. They were completely honest about their scheduling and did fine work. I would use them again.”
