Halloran Masonry Inc

Halloran Masonry Inc is a Belmont brick-and-stone specialist that says it's been run by Matt Halloran since 2001 — though the company's own 'Meet the owner' page puts its founding a year later, in 2002, after Matt spent seven years working for other masons in Middlesex County. Its work is retaining walls, outdoor fireplace construction, and repointing/tuckpointing, and BuildZoom shows three projects with permit history in Newton, Cambridge, and Waltham. There isn't much of a customer record to lean on here. Its lone Google rating doesn't come with any description of the work, so it's not clear it says anything about masonry this company actually performed. Its Better Business Bureau profile lists a B- grade — not accredited, with one complaint on file the business didn't respond to — after 22 years in business by BBB's count. The bigger thing to know before calling: its Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration has expired. BuildZoom separately shows an individual mason license tied to the company (#105966) that's been inactive since 2015. Ask directly about current licensing and insurance before signing anything, and get a second, currently-licensed masonry contractor to compare.
