Ney Santos Masonry Services works out of Malden and keeps coming up in reviews for one thing: retaining walls, front steps and fireplace work led by the same crew lead, Pedro, project after project. In a 2022 review, a homeowner described hiring the crew to repair one collapsed section of a retaining wall — the finished result was such an improvement that they had the whole wall replaced instead, calling the team hard working and the price fair. A 2021 review tells a similar story: front steps and a fireplace redone on time and left clean, with the customer holding off only on side railings because a vendor hadn't yet delivered them. Another 2021 review names Pedro directly on a full masonry project, calling his work second to none. Every review on file — five in total, written between 2021 and 2022 — is positive, and pricing comes up as fair more than once with no complaints attached. The written record predates 2023 rather than being current, so it's worth confirming Pedro and the same crew are still doing the hands-on work before booking. For retaining walls, steps, fireplaces and general concrete repair, the specific, repeated praise for one named lead is worth weighing — just get a fresh quote and confirm current availability, since nothing on file is more recent than 2022.
Pedro and his crew did an amazing job on our retaining wall project. We had initially hired them to repair one collapsed section of the wall but the finished result was so much of an improvement that we had them replace the entire thing. The team was incredibly hard working and we were really impressed how quickly the project came together. The price was really fair and they were able to work with us within our budget. We're definitely hiring them for any masonry work going forward.
Pedro did wonderful work. He is very easy to speak to, intelligent and HARD working. The price was fair. I will use him again, you can be sure.
They were responsive, did the work to specifications and quickly - have additional projects for them
Santos was professional, courteous, quality of work was excellent and his price was fair. The lead for my project was Pedros and his work was second to none. I was consulted when there were questions and wanted me to be happy with the outcome. Please do your due diligence for your home project and then hire Santos.
These guys did a fantastic job on my front steps and my fireplace, work really hard!!! They gave me a great quote, started on time, and left everything neat and cleaned. The only thing that needs to get done and they have to come back is to put on the side railings for my front steps and that is my fault (waiting to get it to deliver from another vendor). I am very satisfied. Highly recommended!
