An August 2025 customer described Moonlight Masonry building a natural-stone retaining wall, bluestone steps and a walkway, with Forrest Angelillo assisted by his brother Shane. The customer said Forrest spent several days preparing before laying the first stone and poured the concrete sidewalk a second time when its finish did not meet his standard. The wall used mostly granite fieldstones that Forrest and the landowner hauled from woods in western Rhode Island. Moonlight Masonry describes itself as a Rhode Island stone masonry business run by brothers Forrest and Shane Angelillo. Its website lists Warwick, Coventry, Johnston and North Kingstown as its service area and advertises free estimates. The company describes building walls, patios, veneers, firepits and steps, as well as chimney repair. Google showed a five-star average from 11 ratings in August 2026. Recent customers describe both repairs and new construction. A May 2026 reviewer said Forrest installed an 8-by-12 concrete pad, completed the masonry work promptly, communicated well and charged a fair price. An April customer described winter-damaged front steps: the workers presented options, repaired the steps quickly and communicated throughout. In August, another customer said Forrest took time to answer questions about an old stone wall, steps and other stone features at the home, and praised his and his brother's craftsmanship and professionalism. A separate August reviewer praised detailed, broken-down estimates and a prompt, consistent workflow. An April 2026 customer described a four-inch-thick granite countertop for a small bathroom. The customer said Forrest sourced the granite from a demolished property built in the 1800s and hand-chiseled its edges; they paired it with a marble vessel sink. In another August 2025 review, a B&B customer described Forrest designing and constructing an entrance stairway with flagstone risers and bluestone treads, praising its finish, timing and cleanup. A homeowner writing in May 2025 said the company renovated front steps and a walkway, responded promptly to a visit and quote request through its website, and met the customer's budget.
Upon meeting for the first time, I could tell Forrest was someone who had an attention to detail and a care for his craft. He took the time to answer questions regarding our old stone wall and nearly anything else we had regarding our steps, our wall, or any stone features of our home. When I thought he was all finished with the project, I saw him doing some more work and I asked him how it was going. He replied cheerily "It's all set, I'm just a perfectionist." It already looked amazing, but you could tell he had a point of pride in his work. In addition to the craftsmanship, he and his brother were absolute professionals and a pleasure to chat with. We'll definitely be having him back for future stone work.
An absolute delight to work with. Forest is very knowledgeable, gave precise and broken down estimates, prompt and consistent workflow and genuinely a nice young man with a promising artistic career in masonry.
Exceeded all my expectations. Excellent and timely masonry work ( installation of 8x12 concrete pad) great communication, fair pricing. Forrest is knowledgeable, honest and hard/working. I enthusiastically recommend him. And he beat the price of a much larger company by a lot. This guy gets it done. Admirable!
Forrest did an excellent job, great price, pleasant to deal with…etc etc
Absolutely! Here’s a review you can use for Moonlight Masonry: --- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently had the pleasure of working with Forrest at Moonlight Masonry, and I can't express how excited and satisfied I am with his work! He transformed my outdoor space by installing a beautiful paver patio around my pool that has become the perfect area for relaxation and entertaining. Additionally, he re-pointed my chimney, ensuring it looks as good as new, and installed French drains in my basement that have made a world of difference. The quality of his work is truly top-notch, and all of this was done at a very fair price. Forrest's professionalism and attention to detail were evident throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Moonlight Masonry to anyone looking for quality masonry work. Thank you, Forrest, for making my home even more beautiful!
