Local masonry & Waterproofing

Local Masonry & Waterproofing, based in North Andover, is a small masonry and chimney outfit that also handles foundation and basement waterproofing, serving Andover and a wide stretch of towns west toward Fitchburg, per its own site. Its handful of Google reviews lean toward chimney work: a 2025 review describes a new chimney built at a fair price with a clean site, and another from the same period describes water marks near a chimney wall traced to damaged flashing, repaired with no leaks reported since. A separate review mentions a fireplace job and another mentions steps. One review describes a foundation-related repair after uneven flooring raised concerns, resolved without the problem returning, though it gives few specifics about what was actually found or fixed. The company self-reports 33 years in business, dating to 1993. With only six reviews on file so far, there isn't much of a track record to lean on yet — worth asking for references on a job of any real size.
