ARM Masonry

ARM Masonry is a Cape Cod masonry contractor based in West Yarmouth, run by Gus, who reviewers across several years describe as showing up personally to walk through decisions and supervise the crew day to day. The company's own site says it's been doing this since 2005; a Porch listing instead puts the founding at 2002. Either way, the range of work is wide — chimneys, fireplaces, patios, driveways, retaining walls, stairs — and it shows in a long run of five-star reviews. Twelve of the twenty reviews on file landed in just the last six months, and the specifics repeat a pattern: a patio renovation this year where reviewers call Gus "extremely knowledgeable," a firepit built exactly as promised after he walked the homeowner through the options, and a front-entry stair replacement one client calls the work of "a highly reputable team." One reviewer, in an October 2025 review, describes Gus's crew re-leveling and regrading an old driveway before laying and compacting a new stone surface; another, in a 2024 review, describes tearing a failing chimney down to the roofline and rebuilding it "from the pan up" with copper flashing meant to outlast the house's next generation of owners. One long-time client simply notes 20+ years of reliable, solid workmanship together. One thing worth flagging directly: the Massachusetts state registry currently lists ARM Masonry LLC's home improvement contractor registration as expired. That's worth confirming and resolving before signing a contract, separate from the quality of the actual masonry work, which nothing in the reviews calls into question. For chimney, fireplace, patio, or driveway masonry work on the Cape, this is a contractor whose clients consistently credit hands-on ownership and durable work — just get the registration status squared away first.
