Reviews of Chameleon Masonry Restoration (Contractor)

Rob Duncan

I needed brickwork repaired on the corner of our house as well as small foundation and header cracks filled. The sales and repair process was professional and thorough. The workers completed all the work quickly and took the time to complete a walk-through and show me where all the work was done, and why.

Eric Hoffman

I am extremely happy with the work on done on my house by Chameleon Masonry Restoration. They replaced 3 rows of a below grade brick with cinder block and parging; and I believe they went above and beyond with their workmanship. It looks amazing and just like a regular foundation wall. The crew was on-time, courteous, professional, explained everything and did a full cleanup after the job was done. The price quoted was the priced charge. I would highly recommend this company for anyone looking to get masonry repair work done. I just used them again for final brick repairs. As before they were professional, quick and the price quoted was the price charged. Thanks for making it a painless experience!

Sonya Anderson

We've used Chameleon for 3 different projects and have always been extremely satisfied with their workmanship and work ethic. They clean up at the end of each day and have completed each project on time and on budget. Their reliability and attention to detail have always made them our "go-to" company for our home projects!

Brent Foster

tried to get a quote, sent a picture of my job. apparently must have a sales visit. a picture is not worth a 1000 words. covid delay until july, so far a pain

Gavin Winch

I had the chimney rebuilt and some brick work replaced on the house. They quickly got to setting up the scaffolding and the teardown of the old chimney, dispite the rain that started. They put a tarp over the workarea and kept on working without delay. All the work was finished on time and the only evidence of them being there was a little stone dust from cutting the chimney cap.

Paul Connell

The contractors did a beautiful job, were polite and friendly, barely left a trace when they were done.

Just recently we hired Chamelon Masonry to repair our chimney as many bricks above the roofline and a few below the roofline were deteriorating. We found the company representatives to be very good to deal with and very professional.The workmanship was excellent and we very much liked and enjoyed the tradesmen who worked on the job, Raymond and Shane and their foreman (I didn't get his name). They were not only very good tradesmen who gave extra care in adverse weather conditions to make sure the job was done right but also nice people to be around . Chameleon would be the first company I would call if I needed brick work done on our house again

Karin Greenough

Was truly impressed by the work done at my home. The 2 gentlemen that came worked hard for 2 straight days. They were prompt every day and cleaned up at the end of each day. I had just one concern and called the office and they also were very prompt in getting back to me the same day and told me they would be back by end of the day to fix my issues, they were and all completed. Thank you all, for the first time having to use a Masonary we were impressed. So glad you were sent my way and again by word of mouth by others that I am sure were impressed with your work as well. Again, thank you, K & K Greenough

scott kosman

Cassidy, Shane, and Brian (I *hope* I got their names all correct!) did an absolutely stellar job on a repair and remodel of the bricks out front of my house. They were fast, polite, professional, and the work looks amazing!

John Christie

Chameleon Masonary replaced my neighbors builder's brick window sills with stone slabs a few years ago, ours needed to be done too. They came highly recommend by him. Even with the weather fighting them they did an amazing job. Paulette in the office was great at communicating and dealing with too.

Mark Bryn

I am very happy with the quality of the work done and I was treated with professionalism and courtesy during the whole process. The work done by Chameleon Masonary Restoration resolved the brick spalling and water damage to my home and when finished showed the quality and craftsmanship of their work. When they started removing spalled bricks, they found extensive damage to the framework of my house under the brick. They provided a revised proposal and restored the framing and the spalled brick. The final price was exactly as quoted in the work proposal and all work proposed was completed. I am very happy with the quality of their solution to the problems I had on my house and would recommend them definitely.

Lauren Tasker

Ultimate Steps Dance Studio would like to thank Chameleon Masonry for the work they did for us. They were extremely professional, responsive, priced reasonably, and hard working. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone! Don’t hesitate to contact us for more information about the job they did.

Norm

Chameleon showed up when they said they would and did a great job of replacing our door sills. We plan to use them again for some brick replacement and parging also

Aaron W

Very happy with the work they did on my home. The new window ledges look great, you wouldn't be able to tell by looking that they were a retrofit and the price came in exactly as quoted. I would highly recommend them for masonry repairs.

Jackie Herbst

This was the 3rd time we have used Chameleon Masonry for our separate chimney repair projects. They truly do excellent work. The team also does an amazing clean up afterwards. I highly recommend ther work for your next masonry job.

Ryan Ballantyne

Chameleon Masonry did a fantastic job on our project. The quality of material used was excellent, customer service was top notch, pricing was very affordable, and they were very responsive throughout the process. Thanks for all your hard work!

Mike T from Barrie

We had both Cassidy and Shane come to repair the chimney and replace two crumbling Patio Door Sills. Not only did they come and do the work, they completed the work cheerfully (the set up for the scaffolding was challenging), thoughtfully (the brick courses and flues along with the caps had to be completely redone), and skillfully (the work looks terrific, clean joints, matching brick colours). A neighbour had recommended them to us, and we do the very same. If you need masonry work done, we also recommend Chameleon. Thanks Cassidy and Shane

Mark Trumble

Chameleon found the time to work on a couple of chimneys before the onset of winter. One of these chimney's would have allowed possible damage to my kitchen. Once the work was started, it was completed quickly.

Chris MacKay

We had our crumbling chimney stack rebuilt this fall on our house near Blue Mountain. Raymond and Jaedon did amazing work. We have very high winds where we are located, and they had to do extra work to fasten the rain caps so they didn't blow off. The crew was always friendly, professional and took time to explain to us what they were doing. We would recommend them to others. Thanks!

Rick Glauser

- From the beginning Chameleon has been an absolute pleasure. From Brett to Kim and certainly Ray and Tanner there has been empathy, positivity and an obvious eagerness to do whatever needs to be done to ensure that the process and especially the work by Ray and Tanner was smooth, efficient and above all Great. -Ray and Tanner did the work and it was clear from their arrival that they were going to make absolutely certain that they left with us smiling. They are perfectionists and in their line of work that’s exactly what you need. Man, did they deliver! No detail was too small and they explained everything, every step of the way. As an example of how much we appreciated their work and their attitude, my wife made them sandwiches and hot chocolate during the day they spent with us. Again, that’s not something we would normally do but their attitudes, their clear desire to make sure the job was done well and their interaction with my wife and myself (and the two dogs) just made it easy to do. - I rarely write testimonials but this one was not only extremely deserved but well worth the short time it took to do it. - I would recommend Chameleon Masonry VERY highly and if we need more work done in the future, they won’t just be our first stop, they will be our only stop. Given the level of perfection and care they bring to the job, even if they were backlogged, we’d wait for them.

Debbie Gilbert

Chameleon Masonry was great! They came to give an estimate on a small job, suggesting it would unlikely get done until spring as the weather is turning colder. BUT - to my delight, they finished a job early and were able to fit us in. It would have been easier to "call it a day", but they put customer service first! Thank you Chameleon!

Cole Morrison

Efficient, high quality repair work done on the exterior of my house. They came highly recommended and I'm glad they were able to fit us in.

Darren Robinson

I had Chameleon Masonary in 3-years ago to replace my builder's brick window sills with stone slabs. They did an amazing job at a great price too. My neighbour was asking who did mine the other day so I stumbled back across the website & felt like it would be great opportunity to leave a review. Thanks.

Maggie McDaniel

My experience with Chameleon Masonry Restoration was a very good one. Ray and his crew were polite, respectful of the property (safeguarding the steel roof on the addition and protecting the driveway) and most importantly, followed all Safety rules with fall gear, goggles, pulleys, scaffolding, etc. It was a challenging job given the heights of the work being done. The chimney rebuild, cement sills & brick replacement blend in with the 100+ year old house. Kim was most efficient with scheduling the job to accommodate my roof replacement. I would contract with Chameleon again.

Cory Kendall

What a professional team! Ray and Cassidy were an awesome team taking down our chimney today on Sophia! Very quick and detailed. Kim and Brett and Ray were also so timely and communicative!

Ron Sharpe

I have hired Chameleon on 2 separate occasions and would do so again Both times the crews were very professional and stayed until the jobs were completed The last job was 4 straight days. It is hard to find a good honest company and this is one of the best.

jim davidson

We were very pleased with our experience with Chameleon Masonry. Our brick house was built in the 60’s and a number of areas needed the joints redone and the chimney cap needed replacing. They did a great job of matching the existing mortar colour, kept the mess to a minimum -looks great. As well they were great in keeping in touch and doing the job at a time that was convenient to us. Vivienne and Jim Davidson

John Desmarais

I hired this company to do some masonry work on my home and I am very pleased with the quality of work that was completed. The masonry workers and office staff were also very friendly and pleasant to deal with. I would definitely hire this company again.

Jeff Rabinovitch

Brick replacement on our century home was well done. Proper period look and high quality workmanship. With little exception, post job clean up also well done.

Joanne Downham

I would recommend this company to anyone needing masonry work. They are professional, skillful and I am very happy with their work.

Barry Kendall

We needed repairs to the stairwell to our basement and to the parging around the outside basement walls of our house. We located Chameleon through a web search. They sent an estimator around who looked over the needed work, told us Chameleon could to it, took photos and told us he would provide us with a quote. The quote looked reasonable according to the needed work; we decided to go ahead with Chameleon. They came and did the work soon after the weather made it possible. We did have to call them back about a minor undone item. The work was not just excellent, it exceeded our expectations. We would recommend Chameleon to others. Barry Kendall

Chris Boulton

Great work! Fixed up some significant damage to the brick and were able to match the colour so you can hardly tell. Would certainly use them again!

Violet Roberts

We used Chameleon/Weaver a month or so ago for masonry on our front step & wall, they did an amazing job, so we've just used them again to replace all our eaves troughs & downspouts, once again it was a pleasure dealing with them. They're very professional, friendly, prompt & clean. We're looking forward to using them for another job that we have. We have recommended them to our neighbours & would highly recommend them to anyone who reads this testimonial. Thanks again Chameleon/Weaver Ernie Carrick & Vi Roberts

Ursula Pasierbski

Can't say enough good things about Chameleon. From start to finish the masonry crew was awesome! They paid attention to detail, showed up as agreed and completed the job on time!

jack spanik

Great experience very professional. Site was cleaned up an out door furniture was put back. Would use there services again and recommend to others. Jack

Dianne Richardson

We are very pleased with the work done by Chameleon Masonry. Our chimney was in bad shape due to water damage and the team did a great job of rebuilding it and installing a new chimney cap. The crew was professional and courteous and very good at answering any questions we had. They cleaned up the work place so well that we couldn't even tell anyone had been there. Very good work. Dianne

Mike Grishaber

Chameleon Masonry was great to deal with. From our first contact with them to the arrival of their crew, they were prompt, professional, and did an outstanding job. I still cannot believe how closely the new brick matches the old. Thanks, guys!

Paul Dunn

Great job - great crew. Efficient and friendly.

Lyne Audette

We had our entire chimney removed from the top down to the roofline and then rebuilt by Chameleon Masonry Restoration end of August 2016. They did an excellent work: it was done in a timely manners, we got great explanation of the work being done by the 2 guys that came to do it, they were really professional, and clean everything really well afterward. We had no additional or surprise cost: same as the detailed proposal. We would strongly recommend them and if we need more work done, we will not hesitate to have them come back.

Lori McIntyre

When customer service and quality workmanship go hand in hand, you know you have found a company that is a cut above all the others. Thank you to Victoria and Nick for their prompt, professional, and kind attention. Our gratitude to Luke and Mike for their skilled masonry work, respect for our home and property, and friendliness. What a pleasure to find this outstanding company in our own community. Lori & John

cordell dutoit

Was pleased with the professionalism of the owner as well quality of the work completed. Overall - very happy.

Peter Valeriani

I recently had 3 brick windowsills replaced with precast sills at my residence in Alliston, the sills were deteriorating due to weathering. Two of the sills were on the second floor and I knew would require scaffolding to complete, my first thoughts were this is going to be an expensive messy job. As it turned out it was not nearly as expensive as I thought and the professionalism of the workers (Ray and Jaedon) was exceptional! They were courteous, efficient and kept the site clean and safe. The work was completed start to finish in one day!! Also, thanks to Joe for the quick response and quote. Many thanks to office staff, Kim and Paulette for their scheduling and follow up upon completion of the job! Great job everyone!! I would highly recommend Chameleon Masonry Restoration to anyone in need Masonry repairs or restoration. Very Happy customer, Peter V

Paulo Pique

Chameleon Masonry came and repaired stone work around the bottom of the garage which deteriorated from salt and the thaw and freezing cycles. They reinforced the bottom that meets the interlock driveway with concrete. They also repaired some of the cracked mortar on the stonework of the garage. They showed up on the agreed time, explained the repair process completely, kept me informed of what they were doing, kept job site clean, replaced interlocking when completed and cleaned up. The workers were informative, friendly and professional. Thank you. Will definitely use them again for my next project.

Mike Mildon

We had several quotes but we ultimately chose Chameleon and the Weaver team because of the great service from their Office Team. The masons that came to do the work were polite, professional and hard working. They turned a dismal crumbling foundation into a better than the original looking finished product. We are very happy with the work performed.

Michael Hall

From the start to finish this company is top notch. They were prompt, communicative, professional, and went above and beyond. We had 10 sills replaced and they had all 10 done within the day. They moved pumpkins and Halloween decorations away from the work area to avoid damage and put everything right back when they were done - you could barely tell that they had been there. Even when we had a small issue with one of the sills they came back within a week no questions asked and replaced the sill. It doesn’t get much better than that. Would highly recommend.

TIM Dakin

Chameleon Masonry did an amazing job restoring my chimney and replacing the damaged brickwork on both my windowsill and on both sides of my front steps. They matched the color of the bricks exactly and cleaned up afterwards. We are very happy with the quality of work and pricing. I would reccomend this company to anybody.

Steve Anderson

Chameleon Masonry fixed exterior surface foundation cracks and re-parged the foundation all around our home. They also replaced a window sill that was cracked and worn, and tuck pointed some brickwork above the garage. Everything looks fantastic. The work was done professionally, in the estimated time, with minimal damage to the plants in the flowerbed. Cost was a little over $5000, but it was well worth the money. We highly recommend them to anyone with masonry needs.

Sarah Shortreed

We recently had Chameleon Masonry completely rebuild two chimneys and correct some brick issues we had near the ground. They communicated a complete cost broken down by task, gave a schedule of what would be accomplished each day in advance, maintained a safe and clean work area, and did an all around incredible job! I strongly recommend using Chameleon!

Mark Herbst

This is the third time we've used Chameleon for some chimney restoration. Needless to say this would not be the case if we had been at all dissatisfied with their work. The quality of their work is top notch and we've been extremely happy with how clean the work area is when they are finished.

Debbie Pendleton

I recently had some brick restoration work done at my house by Chameleon. Nice, knowledgeable guys who did great work. The only negative was that I didn't appreciate having to tell them twice to turn down the radio while they were working because it was crazy loud and annoying to myself and my poor neighbours. Not considerate at all on their part.

Jim Fraser

Thanks Chameleon for a job well done! From sale with Brett Sedenger to the installation crew of Cassidy and Shane I was very impressed. They arrive on time, were efficient and professional in all aspects of the project. Now to give you a more challenging project!

Mik Holup

Very professional company to work with. I had a line of brick on the side of my house that were deteriorating. Chameleon did a great job on replacing the bricks and when they were done they cleaned everything up.

Don Hickey

We had some masonry work done recently on a chimney and around a window ledge that had sustained water damage over the years. Chameleon Masonry were great to deal with. A sales person came to our property and reviewed then advised exactly what needed to be done. He provided us with a printed quote on the spot, in folder with all the company information as well. Chameleon Masonry communicated to us though out the process in a very professional manor. The installers were top notch and did a great job under some weather related challenges. I would highly recommend this company to anyone who is looking for a quality and professional masonry service in the Barrie area. Don & Beth Hickey Barrie, Ont.

OldManLacina

Received excellent service for our chimney repair. The quote was reasonable, the work was scheduled quickly, and the team was very efficient and professional. Our chimney was completely rebuilt from the roofline up as promised in a day. No debris was left behind, and the crew took great care so as not to damage the shrubs and garden adjacent the house. Would definitely recommend Chameleon Restoration to those looking for masonry work.

Cheryl Bee

I called Chameleon because I had a question about the brick veneer on a house I recently purchased and wasn’t sure if it required some alterations before I did some work on the exterior. I talked to Donna and she told me to send some pictures and she’d get one of the sales representatives to have a look. Brent got back to me within a couple days and told me that no work on the masonry was required and I could go ahead and do the repairs I wanted to do. Thanks Donna and Brent for your polite responses to my questions and for taking the time to get back to me even though this didn’t turn out to be a project for Chameleon. I appreciate your honesty, and if I ever need to have some masonry work done in the future, I’ll know who to call.

Kelly Orr

Excellent work, prompt service!

Barbara Beardsall

We were very pleased with the quality of the work done on our century home. The new bricks and grout blended in very well with the original on the house. Although we felt that the work had not be completed when the masons left, Chameleon was quick to come back, happily assess and dispatch the mason again to complete the work to our satisfaction. Chameleon was professional and flexible with our work order particularly when we didn't know the extent of the brickwork damage until the porches were removed. Overall, very satisfied with the end result and would recommend Chameleon for restoration work.

Lisa Claridge

I had a quote done in 2018 and they honoured it a year later. They were quick to schedule a day that worked for me. The guys that came to do the work were great and very professional. I appreciated how they took care to minimize the mess and did a through job of cleaning up at the end of the day. Very impressed and would definitely recommend Chameleon!

Sam Birtwistle

Had some spalling brick replaced with block, and deteriorating mortar removed and repaired by Chameleon. They did exactly what I wanted, without any issues. The mortar was matched quite well also. I will get a quote from them for other unrelated work in the future.

Stacy Keenan

We had a very positive experience with Chameleon Masonary from the initial quote to the finished product. They were very thorough and responsive to all our questions. The job was well done and they cleaned up after they were finished. Highly recommend them!

Michael Tamburro

We had a chimney rebuilt. They were able to match the brick and the work quality and completion was excellent. I would highly recommend and I will use them again on my future projects.

Isar Xu

We are very happy with Chameleon's work from quotation through construction to the final job finish. The quotation is accurate, the construction is well organized and quality is very good. Most important, the job is backup by 10 years warranty.

DIANE RITCHIE

The work was done very well. I had spalling bricks and a chimney rebuild. Price high but excellent workmanship

Colleen Jacobs

Chameleon Masonry recently completed did some brick repair and window sill replacements on our home. This is the second time we have had them do work for us in the past 4 years and the mere fact that we contracted them for a second time speaks volumes! They were great the first time and did not disappoint us the second time. The on-site workers, Raymond and Jaedon, did an excellent job, were personable and informative, and tidied everything up when they were done. I didn't even have to get my hands dirty. Who could ask for more. I have previously recommended Chameleon to other homeowners in the neighbourhood and will continue to do so. Thank you for a job well done. Colleen

J W

We highly recommend Chameleon Masonry Restoration. We have used Chameleon twice in the past 6 years for different repairs. We were referred by a friend in 2014 when we had brick and masonry repairs. They did a wonderful job, and when we had new job requiring masonry repair we turned to them again. Just as our great experience with them in 2014, they again were great right from the start of our contact with them in 2020. They provided options to address our repairs, they were professional, provided timely quote, provided touch points regarding schedule, and their staff were professional and did amazing work. They did a great job that looks wonderful and with no mess remaining for us. We even had an additional brick repair we noticed just before they arrived for the original repair and they quickly provided a quote for that and adjusted their scheduled to complete that before they finished the job. Thank you to all of the crew and staff at Chameleon. We are very happy with the results of your work.

Paul Szeptycki

Great customer service. Rebuilt my chimney, met the estimate which was competitive with two other estimates obtained. Had the work done in less time than expected. Site was cleaned up after and have nothing but a good experience to report.

Margot Kasulis

Excellent appraisal and subsequent work on brick pillar between garage doors. Very professional service. Keep up the great work. Special thanks to Brett, Kim and Paulette.

Jim Miller

We had our entire chimney and all window sills replaced. The work was completed to our satisfaction in a timely manner and looks great. The sales consultant and work crew communicated very well and answered all our questions. We would highly recommend Chameleon Masonry Restoration.

Bill Soule

I would definitely recommend Chameleion Masonary Restoration. Two young men showed up right on time to complete my cinder block, angel stone repair work. They kept me up to date on the what they were doing, why they were doing the work and completed the work in a good time frame. Everything was cleaned up upon completion leaving a superb job behind. Thank you

Ken Groombridge

They were quick to get back to us when we contacted them. They new that the job was urgent as winter was coming and I needed my chimney cap removed and a new one made. The cap had several cracks in it and was allowing rain into my attic and then my living room. They made it a priority to get the job done before the cold weather arrived. They left no mess when they were done and the bill was what the quote said. All in all, we are very happy with their service. Ken and Tracey, in Thornton.

B. Reid

Despite some inclement weather, the workers showed up when they said, did a thorough job and cleaned up when they left. All in all, happy to recommend Chameleon Masonry and would use them again.

Geoff Davey

Great job replacing the parging on our block foundation, Cassidy and Shane were outstanding workers, minimal disruption, clean and professional, a pleasure to have them do the job.

Theresa Harper

We selected Chameleon Masonry to do a restoration on our chimney after seeing them working on several of our neighbours' homes. Their workspace was clean and organized. From our first meeting with visiting our property to write the quote to the final stage of invoicing, everything was professional, superior and efficient work, courteous and knowledgeable staff. There were no surprizes along the way; everything was as promised. We would highly recommend to anyone doing masonry restoration to contact Chameleon.

David W

I engaged Chameleon to do some brick/masonry restoration work on an old Ontario farmhouse. Very professional operation and high quality work. I would recommend them highly.

Kate Johnson

Cassidy and Shane did a fantastic job replacing three brick window sills with single-piece limestone sills. They arrived early, put down tarps to avoid damaging my roof, and completed the job in one day. They were professional, cleaned up everything before they left, and the sills looks great! There were a few delays in determining schedules for install (as is pretty typical with Covid), but Chameleon was well worth the short wait. I highly recommend this company!

Dolores Gilbert

I am very satisfied with the chimney replacement job and especially impressed with the prompt and ongoing communication and professionalism of the whole team. The brick matches perfectly! Thank you.
