I know that tuckpointing and masonry work have been addressed previously on BTF. I have a relatively small job of tuckpointing the siderails on my bungalow, also some caulking on the steps, and replacement of a limestone base on one side. I'd appreciate any recommendations for quality work. I've seen several less-than-quality examples around town, and I'm willing to pay a little more to have the job done right. with matching mortar neatly applied (and not plastered all over the the brick).
Crafton would be my #1 choice. They are a bit more pricey, but do excellent work.
Rite-way also did a decent job. I'd use them again.
