Steve Kady Masonry is a Falmouth masonry contractor specializing in chimneys, fireplaces, seawalls, and custom stone and brick work across Cape Cod. Steve Kady, a fifth-generation Falmouth resident and second-generation mason, has been in the trade for 46 years, per a 2025 Cape News article, and the family business has served the area for decades. Recent reviews are strongly positive and specific. A July 2026 review calls his crew "a reflection of Steve himself — personable, professional and skilled," quick to respond by email and phone. A May 2026 review describes a repeat customer who, happy with a center chimney Steve built in 2019, called him back years later to rebuild a larger one. An April 2026 review describes Steve navigating a historic-district chimney project through the local conservation committee, keeping the homeowner updated and finishing on schedule. Another April 2026 review describes a quick response to a chimney leak, with detailed photos and a clear explanation of what a previous repair had missed. A late-2025 review describes a chimney replacement with the crew arriving promptly each morning and working diligently through the day. Reviews from 2024 describe the same pattern — attention to detail and top-notch quality on finished chimney work. One 2024 review is a clear outlier: a one-star rating with no detail beyond calling the work "rock ugly and frankly unsafe." It gives no specifics about which job or what went wrong. His Massachusetts construction supervisor license (CSSL-059847) and home improvement contractor registration (#126014) are both active, verified against the state registry and held by Steven Kady. BBB has accredited the business since 2013 with an A+ rating. For Cape Cod homeowners needing chimney, fireplace, or masonry work, this is a deeply established, dual-licensed family business with a strong, largely recent run of detailed, specific reviews — worth weighing against the one unexplained negative rating on file.
“For the chimney work, Steve Kady out of Falmouth.”

We were very happy with the center chimney that Steve Kady did for us in 2019 so we called on him again when we needed our other larger chimney taken down and rebuilt. Once again his crew was professional, friendly, polite ... and very hard working. They do beautiful work and leave no detail undone. Steve also designed a new bluestone landing into our breezeway and we are thrilled with how it turned out. We are very grateful for their quality work and high standards.
Steve Kady and his workers did a wonderful job on my chimney work. They were professional and did a great job, on time and on budget. I would happily recommend them.
I hired Steve to demolishe1 chimney and re-build the other in my house at the historic district. Steve worked with the conservation committee to get the project approved, kept me regularly updated of the approval process and completed the job on schedule. Steve and his crew are pleasure to work with. Steve is a man of integrity and keeps his word. wish him and his crew the very best and strongly recommend him.
Steve and his crew were absolutely outstanding. He responded quickly to assess a leak in my chimney and took the time to thoroughly explain what was going on, including detailed photos and clear, professional guidance. It turned out the previous repair hadn’t addressed the underlying issues, and Steve walked me through why a full rebuild was needed without ever being negative—just honest and informative. From start to finish, everything was seamless. They showed up on time, worked efficiently, and delivered exactly what was promised. The craftsmanship is top-notch—the chimney looks beautiful and is clearly built to last. His crew is experienced, professional, and incredibly respectful—they kept everything clean each day and at the end of the job. What really sets Steve apart is his integrity and customer care. He went above and beyond to help me document the prior issues and even guided me through getting a refund from the previous mason, which I successfully received. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Steve and his team—they are skilled, reliable, and truly a pleasure to work with.
