Verified record
Historic Masonry & Foundation Contractors is a Boston-based, family-run masonry and foundation shop. The company says it's been in the trade for more than 30 years, with the craft passed down through generations, and describes work in foundation repair, waterproofing, basement work, masonry, and chimney work. There's nothing yet from customers or a licensing registry to confirm how the work actually turns out, so there isn't a track record to point to here. The company lists Boston, Cambridge, Roxbury, Newton, and Somerville as its service area. Worth doing before hiring: ask for references, photos of recent jobs, and a written quote, since there's no public review or verified-license history here to lean on yet.
