Blocks & Bricks Corp is a Lynn-based masonry and remodeling outfit run by Kryss Perez, and its written record — while dated — tells a consistent story: five reviews, all five stars, all crediting Kryss by name. The Better Business Bureau categorizes it as a remodeling contractor and rates it A+, and Angi and HomeAdvisor both show a perfect 5.0 across six reviews, with the company describing itself as offering masonry, concrete and general remodeling work, Spanish spoken, with free estimates and emergency service. Every review on file dates to 2018, so what's here is history rather than a current trend, but it's specific history. One customer described Kryss repairing masonry on an exterior foundation despite having to work around half-day rainstorms; another had him restore a patio that snow and cold had damaged, hiring him even at a higher quote than a competitor's because of his "can do" attitude. A third had the team refinish a basement floor after talking through budget and design options together, and two more reviews from that year specifically call out constant communication during the job and a crew that showed up on time and left the property clean. Worth asking about directly: the Better Business Bureau lists the company at a Boston address, while BuildZoom, Angi and HomeAdvisor all show it at 62 Henry Ave in Lynn — same owner and phone number across all four, so it looks like the same business, but confirm the current address before a site visit. BuildZoom also lists an active Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor registration for the company, though that's the directory's own claim rather than an independent verification. For masonry and foundation work, patio restoration, or a basement remodel in the Lynn/Boston area, the track record here — thin on volume, thick on specifics — points to a contractor worth a call; just get a current address and a firm timeline given the rain-delay mentions in past jobs.
Blocks and Bricks did a great job in our finished basement. We asked Kryss and team to come in and refinish our basement (master bed) floor. Originally we thought about concrete, but after discussions with Kryss about budget and vision for the finished project we collectively landed on stone tile. The work was done with high quality and with care for the rest of our home. We would definitely hire Kryss and team again for another project.
Kryss just finished repairing the masonry work on our external foundation. He did a great job despite having todeal with half days due to rainstorms. I would definitely hire Kryss again.
Kryss just finished up a job in my back yard, restoring our patio that had been damaged by snow and cold. I hired him even though his initial quote was a little higher than another contractor who reviewed the job. The reason I did this was on account of the "can do" attitude Kryss displayed, as well as his obvious enjoyment at trying to come up with creative solutions for what was clearly a more challenging job than I had initially thought. My gambit paid off: the work has come out splendidly and I will definitely be hiring Kryss for future masonry jobs.
It was very easy to work with them, always on time and kept property clean while working. I will use them again.
From the get go Kryss and his team jumped right in. Kryss was in contact constantly before and during the work. A few loose ends remain but will be finished the coming weekend(6-9-18) Would of been done the weekend before, but it rained during the outside phase of the job. In a small area of my basement they did a great job laying down a concrete floor that is now level. A few patch up spots and looks a lot better.
