Salguero Masonry

Salguero Masonry has run out of Waltham since 2003, according to the company, specializing in chimney construction and repair alongside stone walls, patios and retaining walls across the western suburbs of Boston. The owner says he works every project personally. The written record here is thin. Google shows just 3 stars from six ratings, and the one review on file, from 2023, called the crew friendly and respectful without further detail. Two things are worth asking about directly. An OSHA citation on file describes employees working on scaffolding more than 10 feet up without the required fall protection, and a 2020 Department of Labor Wage and Hour Division case assessed the company $65,016 for wage violations. The company's Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration, number 190989, is currently expired according to the state registry, though BuildZoom's own listing still shows that same number as active, so current status is worth confirming directly. Its Better Business Bureau file is a cleaner story: A+ rated and accredited since 2010, with no complaints on record there. Anyone considering chimney or masonry work here should ask to see current insurance and licensing paperwork in hand, given the lapsed registration and the safety and wage findings on file.
