One name keeps coming up in the reviews of this Marlborough masonry outfit, and it isn't the company's: Demilton. Across five years of Google reviews customers name the owner personally — he answered the questions, he was on the job, he was the one who talked them out of the expensive option. The work is hardscape and structural masonry: patios, walkways, steps, retaining and stone walls, paver driveways, fire pits and outdoor fireplaces, plus chimneys and foundation openings. In March 2026 a homeowner had two basement egress windows cut into a fieldstone foundation and noted the crew timed its start so as not to disturb other tenants in the building. That same month another had a chimney rebuilt from the roofline up and called it the nicest in the neighbourhood. In August 2026 a customer described an old paved side-walkway rehabilitated and extended thirty feet to a backyard shed — over gas and electrical lines they had just moved — then power-washed and re-sanded, with the site cleaned up daily. Two smaller details say more than the star count. A July 2026 customer having bluestone reset and regrouted found the crew had also reset stones elsewhere on the property that nobody had asked about. And in April 2024 a homeowner wanting a wall repaired said other outfits pushed to tear it out and build something expensive; this crew kept the character of the backyard and came in at the agreed price. Its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration is active. The company says it has been going for nearly two decades. The one limit worth knowing is where all the praise lives: every written account is a Google review — twenty-four of them, five stars each, seven of them in the last six months. There is no second platform to cross-check against. For patios, walls, steps and chimney work around Marlborough this is a strong call; ask for two recent addresses you can drive past, and get scope and price in writing before they start.
Demilton and his crew rehabilitated an old, paved side-walkway on my property, and extended the walkway another 30 feet to a backyard storage shed. I was a bit nervous, because I recently moved a stand-by generator to the opposite side of the walkway. The new walkway would pass over the electrical and gas lines. The "Best Masonry" team took care allaying all my concerns. Following the rehab and new installation they power-washed and re-sanded everything. They cleaned up daily and at the end of their work. Quality materials; quality work; friendly and friendly professional team. And here's an additional bit of info that I feel shows the character of Demilton and the Best Masonry Works team: I had told Demilton about the company that did the original work years ago for me. The company didn't seem to be available these days. After my work was completed, Demilton found out the competitor had recently died. He brought me the obituary; figured I'd want to know. I don't think many companies would have done that. I recommend Best Masonry Works enthusiastically.
We had Best Masonry Works install a new patio and dry well for us. We have some additional things we added at the end of the project that will be completed at a later date. Demilton and his team were very professional and did incredible work! We are beyond happy with the results! If I had to choose someone to do this work again I would choose them every time!
Best Masonry Works power washed our patio and then reset and regrouted the bluestone. They did an outstanding job! They also reset the stones in a couple of other places on our property, and one we didn't even ask them to do! Their team was excellent. I would hire them again in a heartbeat!
What a great job! Fantastic and professional easy to work with and the best in the business!! Recommend them 5 stars...
Great workers and excellent job done.
