O’Neill construction & masonry

O'Neill Construction & Masonry is a Massachusetts masonry outfit whose reviewers keep circling back to two things: basement water problems and stone or brick that needed rebuilding. In 2024, homeowners described the crew fixing recurring basement dampness, rebuilding a crumbling retaining wall, relaying an old brick walkway, and pouring a new patio — each account naming the specific job and calling the finished work solid. The volume backs that up. Across 14 Google reviews, all posted in 2024, every rating is five stars, and several go into real detail: one homeowner who'd tried other companies first said O'Neill's team was polite, kept them updated, and resolved a persistent basement leak; another called a retaining-wall rebuild courteous and well-updated from start to finish. The Better Business Bureau lists the company (also operating as O'Neill Masonry) with an A+ rating and 14 years in business, and BuildZoom and Procore profiles both name masonry and concrete work as its focus, with a Procore listing showing 53 completed projects across Massachusetts and Rhode Island. One thing to check directly before hiring: the state registry lists the company's Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration as expired, and BuildZoom's own listing shows the same license inactive. That's worth asking about, especially for larger or more complex jobs. The review record itself, while strongly positive, is now over a year old — worth confirming recent references given how much time has passed since these accounts.
