When a patio customer's stone wall required more labor than expected, Sal kept the price unchanged, according to an April 2026 Google review. That customer described a patio built the previous fall, patient help with material choices, punctual visits and no drainage problems through the winter. Dervishi Masonry & Hardscapes works from Wrentham, Massachusetts; its website describes residential and commercial masonry and hardscape construction and repairs in the Wrentham area. An April 2025 customer identified Sal Dervishi as the owner. Customers describe new stonework and repairs to older structures. In a March 2026 review, a couple said Sal and his associate Ben completed a walkway and stone-and-granite front steps, helped select stone and pavers, and addressed their questions along the way. A separate March reviewer praised the company's evaluation of a front walkway, including options and improvements before replacement. A May 2026 customer who worked with Sal during a home renovation praised his punctuality and attention to detail. Repair work can involve reusing existing stone. An October 2025 reviewer described loose bluestone stairs and raised cobblestone and brick walkways installed by another company. The customer said Sal explained how water had caused problems and sent an itemized quote. Sal and Ben then removed loose stones, cleared old mortar, cut stones for a closer fit and rebuilt sections of walkway. The reviewer specifically praised the matched mortar color and washing away stone dust after the cutting. Other dated accounts describe work around the house. An April 2025 customer said Sal designed and installed a bluestone stoop with ledgestone veneer, a walkway, granite driveway curbing and a cobblestone apron. A February 2025 reviewer described two small retaining walls, two sets of exterior stairs and a walkway, with time spent on measurements, design and material options. In March 2025, another customer praised daily cleanup during a walkway-and-stairs project and the addition of soil and grass seed at the end. Google's rating for Dervishi is 5 stars from 48 ratings. In a July 2023 review, a homeowner described Sal and Ben repairing an aging raised stone patio and building new front steps. The customer said the granite patio was pitched so water could run off and that the job began and finished within the agreed time frame.
Sal was a pleasure to work with and we are pleased with the results.
Of all the subcontractors involved in our home renovation, Sal was the best. He was punctual, kind, meticulous, and hardworking. Sal is what I’d call a true “craftsman.”
Sal was a pleasure to work with throughout the process of building our patio last fall. He showed up on time at the initial estimate and then throughout the job, had great ideas for a design that would suit our needs, and was patient while we visited different suppliers and tried to make up our minds about materials. Additionally, Sal never raised the price even when our large stone wall turned out to require more labor than expected. He paid attention to the small details at every stage of construction, and we did not have any drainage problems over the winter. I would definitely call on Sal again for any masonry job.
My wife and I contracted with Dervishi Masonry & Hardscapes (DM&H) for a new walkway, as well as new stone and granite front steps. From start to finish we could not have been more pleased with all aspects of the project. Sal provided us with a very reasonable quote, assisted us in choosing just the right stone and pavers and took the time to address all of our questions along the way. Sal and his associate, Ben, were great to deal with, extremely professional throughout and completed every aspect of the project to our great satisfaction. We have received many complements on our new walkway and stairs and would not hesitate to hire DM&H for future projects.
Dervishi Masonry did an outstanding job on our front walkway. What set them apart was their approach—they didn’t just replace what was there, but took the time to evaluate the space, present options, and recommend improvements.The result is both functional and visually clean. Excellent craftsmanship, great communication, and a clear attention to detail throughout. Highly recommend.
