## The honest read

A vehicle ran into a garage and damaged the stone work: a 2026 customer said Jesse came by a couple of days later with an estimate for the insurance company, had a team at the house the following week, and that his crew completed the repairs in 3 days. JLS Premier Masonry & Construction LLC holds a Connecticut home improvement contractor registration, number HIC.0657901, which is active on the state registry. It holds 4.9 stars from 44 Google ratings and 5.0 stars from 51 HomeAdvisor ratings.

Chimneys are a large share of the work. A 2026 customer said Jesse cleaned their chimney, then ordered a part and came back to fix the damper. A 2025 customer said Jesse and his apprentice repaired their chimney and that the work was done quickly. A 2024 customer wrote that, after a year and recent downpours, the chimney work on the flue, flashing and cap had prevented any further leaks into the attic. A 2022 customer said JLS replaced the chimney down to the roof and matched the bricks despite a 40-year difference. A 2022 customer said JLS installed a wood-burning stove in a large house on Fishers Island, inserting a stainless steel liner into a tall chimney with three separate flues. In 2022, a HomeAdvisor customer who expected an above-the-roofline rebuild said Jesse advised the bricks were in good shape and only the flashing needed replacing.

Stone and brick jobs fill out the rest. A 2025 customer said Jesse did their front brick steps, which were disintegrating and had to be removed and redesigned. A 2025 customer said he took out 80-year-old windows in a cinder block barn, sealed the openings with cinder blocks and patched cracking cement. A 2023 customer with water entering the kitchen said JLS was the only one of 20 masonry companies called to get back within 30 minutes, and that its quote to remove planters set against the home beat 5 other quotes by several thousand dollars. A 2023 customer said Jesse contracted out the work on a stone patio and pathway but communicated throughout. A 2021 HomeAdvisor customer said JLS dismantled an old retaining wall and redid it in natural stone, with the mason, Cullen, showing up every day.

A 2024 customer wrote that JLS never showed up to their appointment. A 2022 customer said a part had been forgotten on their job, noticed a couple of months afterwards, and that the company came back to correct it.

**Strengths:**
- Chimney rebuilds — a 2022 customer said bricks were matched across 40 years
- Stone work repair — a 2026 customer said the crew finished in 3 days
- A lasting leak fix — a 2024 customer said the chimney work prevented further leaks
- A quick callback — a 2023 customer said JLS replied within 30 minutes

**Concerns:**
- A missed appointment — a 2024 customer said JLS never showed up
- A forgotten part — a 2022 customer said it was later corrected
