Hoyt Masonry is Sean Hoyt's chimney-and-masonry shop, and the job that shows up over and over in the reviews is the chimney nobody else wants to touch: out of code, a cracked liner, a stove that needs swapping out. The company holds an active Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration under Sean Hoyt, and the Better Business Bureau grades it A+. Across 111 reviews from 2015 to 2026 on eight platforms, the pattern barely wavers — Google, HomeAdvisor, Angi and Thumbtack all sit around 4.9 stars. The specific jobs repeat a shape: a chimney gets diagnosed fast, a real cause explained rather than an upsell, and the rebuild finished in days rather than weeks. Recent reviews describe full chimney and fireplace rebuilds, a granite fireplace teardown, and brick front-step repairs, and several customers mention calling him back for a second project. It isn't flawless. One customer felt the charge for removing a decommissioned chimney was steep with no breakdown given. In a 2023 review, another said a 25-year warranty didn't hold — the chimney cracked within six months, and the two sides disagreed about whether the flue was to blame. Worth asking for a written estimate and warranty terms before signing. For chimney rebuilds, fireplace work or general masonry, Hoyt Masonry is worth a call — the volume of repeat customers is the strongest signal here.
We are so impressed with Hoyt Masonry and the spectacular job they did on our front steps! Sean was incredibly easy to work with and responsive. We look forward to other projects they can complete for us. A must hire!
We had a major job with our chimney. It needed a complete rebuild and it wasn’t up to code. Everything needed to be gutted and rebuilt. Sean did an awesome job rebuilding it, getting it up to code and modernizing it! Loved his work and would highly recommend. The fireplace is now the focal point of the living room.
I had booked an appointment with Sean to get my Walkway done and it came out beautiful, better than words can explain! If you guys are looking for any masonry work, I really suggest hiring him very professional and very helpful. Couldn’t ask for a better outcome!
Sean and his team just finished building my dream wood burning fireplace. He was very nice to work with and was very quick to answer all my questions and was nice enough to bring in different stone samples to help me decide the final look I wanted. He communicated very clearly and always showed up when he said he was. I highly recommend using Hoyt LLC for any masonry project.
Sean and his team did an outstanding job building our brand new wood burning fireplace and chimney from the ground up. They were highly professional and passionate about their craft. Sean maintained very clear communication throughout the entire project and the final product exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend using Hoyt Masonry LLC for any masonry projects.
