A small piece cracked off a set of concrete steps was where one August 2021 job started; by the end, the Angi reviewer wrote, the front yard had bluestone steps with veneer trim, a paver walkway with belgian block, a rebuilt retaining wall and a natural stone wall with steps. Alex Masonry is a Waterbury hardscape and stone outfit, and customers write about Alex and his crew doing the work. Patios, walls and steps come up again and again. A January 2024 Houzz review describes a stair walk with long, level treads up a steep grade, completed in four days and matched to the customer's existing stoop; that customer had hired Alex seven years earlier for the stoop. In a May 2023 Houzz review, a pool patio that had been redone before came out right this time, with Alex working alongside his crew for 7 straight days. A March 2023 Angi customer had a leaning retaining wall removed and rebuilt, with new bluestone caps and a paver walkway. A June 2019 review describes a full rebuild around an inground pool, including a 40 foot section of retaining wall, a drainage system and a fire pit capped with recycled bluestone steps. The work also reaches basements: in a November 2019 review, a customer said the basement stayed completely dry through two big rain storms after Alex installed drains, and an October 2019 review describes a window job where Alex kept the customer informed through a reorder. A 2019 and a 2020 review describe estimates honored, with no additions at project end. The newest reviews are a July 2025 Houzz review of a patio redo and a March 2025 Angi review of front steps and a walkway.

I had Alex Masonry redo a patio. They were fair priced, prompt and did an excellent job. I would recommend them to do any masonry work. They were hard working and did an amazing job of cleaning up.
Alex Masonry exceeded my expectations. They did an incredible job on my front steps and walkway. The team was professional, punctual, and ensured everything was perfectly aligned and built to last. They kept the worksite clean and finished on time. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and skilled masonry work! I plan to hire them again to do my patio and outdoor kitchen
We used Alex Masonry to construct a stair walk which turned out beautifully. Our house is on an unlevel lot with a steep grade from the sidewalk to our front door stoop (about 25 feet). To ease the effort required to get to our existing sidewalk landing, we wanted a stair walk with long, level treads (about four feet). The final product surpassed our expectations! Having contracted with Alex seven years ago to redo our front stoop, we were familiar with his craftmanship, and asked for a bid on this project. Alex gave us a fair estimate which finalized our decision. He was patient and would consult us every step of the way (no pun intended), especially with any changes. The crew was timely, conscientious of our property, and meticulous. What's more, the project was completed in four days and the crew did a bang-up job matching the stair walk to our existing stoop. We couldn't be more thrilled! We highly recommend Alex Masonry for any hardscape or stone project. They are top-notch, and we will call on them again!
We are extremely pleased with the results Alex Masonry did on our pool deck area. Alex not only oversees the project but he works alongside his crew. Alex is very meticulous about each aspect of the process. He worked 7 straight days even Saturday & Sunday ! Our pool patio had to be redone 3 times, & this time proves the adage “Third time is the charm “! We highly recommend Alex Masonry !
I hired Alex Masonry to remove and rebuild a retaining wall that was leaning. After some discussion, I decided to expand the project to include new bluestone caps and to re-do my cracked concrete walkway with pavers. Alex and his crew did an outstanding job. Alex is extremely knowledgeable, personable and a pleasure to work with. His pricing is very reasonable. He and his team did a great job. Hard workers, with great attention to detail. I would highly recommend Alex Masonry!
