Revive Masonry & Construction

Revive Masonry & Construction is a Boston mason shop led by Tommy (Thomas), in business since 2003 according to its BBB profile, with an active Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration. Several of its Google reviews name the same crew working under a second name, Premier Masonry & Construction. Chimney work is where the record is strongest. In a 2024 review, a homeowner describes water leaking into their attic from a chimney that several other contractors had failed to fix; Tommy found the actual issue and repaired the mortar, and the attic stayed dry through a major rainstorm afterward. Another 2024 review describes a chimney disintegrating after nearly 60 years, with bricks and mortar falling regularly, repaired within a week of the first call. On the water side, one reviewer had ongoing flooding through their basement walls traced to the foundation and stopped after a repair and new parging, with two leak-free weeks to report at the time. Reviewers repeatedly mention fast turnaround — same-day quotes, jobs finished the day they start — and competitive pricing, including one 2024 account of an estimate that came in about $1,200 below a competing quote. One thing worth knowing: in a 2024 review, a customer says an initial quote for chimney work, given from a quick look, rose substantially once the crew found the job required more than first thought — they were satisfied with the finished repair but wished the first estimate had been based on a closer inspection. Its Angi profile is brand new with no reviews yet, so the read here leans almost entirely on Google. For chimney repair, repointing, and basement waterproofing work, the reviews describe a responsive, fairly priced crew that has fixed problems other contractors couldn't. Ask for a closer, more thorough look before locking in a quote, especially for chimney work where the scope isn't visible from the ground.
