A sea wall chewed up by a storm, in a February 2026 review. Stone veneer around a new gas fireplace, finished ahead of a Christmas Eve party in December 2025. A patio completed in August 2026 with black locust worked into the middle of the design. JD Stoneworks gets called for hardscape that has to be figured out, not just laid. The Lowell, Massachusetts company says on its site that it has served Lowell and Middlesex County since 2022, and BuildZoom's profile gives Douglas Polezi as the owner, at 510 Pawtucket Street. In the reviews it is Jose who turns up: a June 2026 customer said they made contact in mid-May and had a call back within 24 hours and an appointment to look at their stairs. BuildZoom and HomeAdvisor both list Massachusetts home improvement contractor licence #215043. Eighteen Google ratings average 5★, and Angi and HomeAdvisor each carry a 5.0. Most of the work described is hardscape. A February 2026 reviewer in Amesbury listed one project that took in a retaining wall, a set of granite stairs, a patio, two walkways, a driveway apron and a driveway center circle. Another February 2026 reviewer said the retaining wall built for them keeps their dogs from running loose. A September 2024 reviewer had the steps at a townhouse complex repaired with new brick veneers, and a July 2025 reviewer had a patio rebricked. Two habits come up repeatedly. The site gets left clean — four reviewers between 2024 and 2026 say so, one describing a tidy job site at the end of each night. And the estimate holds: an April 2026 customer whose small, curved patio on an incline had to clear an HOA said Jose kept his word on the initial quote after six months of waiting, and a December 2025 customer with a small job got the estimate visit on a Sunday and said the work was scheduled and completed as proposed. Chimneys and fireplaces are part of the trade here too. A December 2023 customer called about rain leaking into the fireplace clean-out and hired the team for the repair after a quote came back within a week; an October 2025 review lists a chimney repointed, a back chimney refaced, new caps fitted and a concrete wall refaced alongside a patio and walkway. For a patio, a walkway, a stone wall or a set of granite steps, this is a shop whose customers describe a design conversation before anyone digs. The site gives the service area as Lowell while that February 2026 project was over in Amesbury, so confirm your town early, and get the quote in writing with a note of how long it stands.
We had a great experience with this team building our new patio. They incorporated black locust material into the center of the design, and the finished product came out beautifully. They were reliable, clean, professional, and clearly take pride in the quality of their work. We couldn’t be happier with the result and would hire them again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!
If you're looking for exceptional masonry work for your home, I would highly recommend JD Stoneworks! I contacted JD Stoneworks in mid-May and within 24 hours I received a call and scheduled an appointment with Jose. He assessed my stairs, and within 5 minutes, he identified the root cause and addressed how he and his team would rebuild the stone stairs properly. I asked several questions and Jose answered all of them without hesitation alleviating any concerns. I was confident in Jose and his knowledge of how to do the work. I asked Jose for a fee proposal and within 24 hours I received it! I was truly impressed with his level of professionalism, and I trusted Jose the stairs both at the front of my home and back would be done correctly. In addition to the steps, Jose and I discussed my front walkway, and I asked Jose to include it in the overall project redesign. Within 2 weeks, Jose, Doug and their team were at my home to begin the project. Jose and Doug set the example. Everyone was professional, kind, friendly, and respectful me and my home. The entire team was an absolute pleasure to work with and to have at my home. I am absolutely thrilled with my new front steps, back steps as well as my new entranceway to my home. The work has redefined my home and has made a lasting impression, and even my neighbors have commented on how beautiful it looks. I couldn't be happier with the overall result and I' am already looking forward to my next project with Jose, Doug and his great team. Thank you again for everything!
We are absolutely thrilled with our new patio from JD Stoneworks! From start to finish, working with Jose was an absolute pleasure. He was incredibly responsive, professional, and truly shared his expertise to help us design an incredible patio that blew our expectations away. The crew was just as impressive—they were extremely hardworking and made sure to clean up the workspace entirely before leaving each day. The craftsmanship is top-tier, and the customer service was unmatched. I would highly recommend Jose and his team at JD Stoneworks to anyone looking for beautiful, high-quality stonework.
Let me start by saying the service and quality of work were amazing. This team is incredible and I highly recommend them. They work hard, pay attention to detail, and truly care about making the customer happy. My new walkway came out beautiful and all of my neighbors have been impressed by their work. I’ve already had people asking for their information and referrals are definitely coming their way. Solid workmanship, professional crew, and a great experience from start to finish. Jose is a great, honest man who stands by his word. It’s hard to find contractors you can truly trust, and Jose and his team delivered exactly what they promised and some! Thanks Lilly
Professional, responsive, outstanding quality in materials and labor. We had a small patio job on an incline, with curves, that also needed to be vetted through our HOA. Jose was patient, supportive, flexible. He kept his word on the initial quote after 6 months of waiting for approval. We highly recommend JD Stoneworks particularly for custom jobs.
