Verified record
Beacon Masonry and Construction turns up in public records mostly through one serious piece of reporting: an NBC Boston investigation into a Massachusetts contracting scheme that left a homeowner, Berard, out roughly $500,000. Beacon Masonry was the first business Berard hired. The outlet reported that Beacon Masonry's Yelp reviews started out five stars across the board. But the most recent one, posted in June by a homeowner in Lincoln, Rhode Island, described a simple chimney repointing job whose price kept climbing beyond what was expected. Given the fraud investigation and the pricing complaint, get a firm written estimate before any masonry or chimney work begins, and get a second opinion before signing anything.
“The first business Berard dealt with was Beacon Masonry and Construction. According to the Yelp page, the initial reviews were all five stars. However, the most recent review from June was a homeowner in Lincoln, Rhode Island, who said some simple chimney repointing work had ballooned in price.”
