Weather Stone Masonry and Construction is a small masonry outfit working out of a Westwood PO box, taking on brick and stone jobs like repointing, wall repair, and flatwork. There isn't much written about them yet, and what's there is consistent — and not encouraging. Two Google reviews from 2023 and 2024 describe the same pattern: a quote that ballooned once the crew was already on site, in one case from about $2,500 for light repointing to more than $10,000. Both reviewers say the basement, yard, and exterior were left a mess, and one reported that the basement actually took on more water after the repointing than before it started. The same 2023 review turns up again on Angi and HomeAdvisor. In both accounts, the customer says they reached out afterward — for cleanup, for a promised warranty, for an explanation of the new leak — and got little or no response. Before hiring, get a firm, written estimate up front and confirm what happens if the scope changes once work begins. With two independent accounts telling nearly the same story — a quote that grew fast, a messy exit, and silence afterward — it's worth a second opinion before signing off on any work beyond the original number.
I had a similar experience as the first reviewer. John came a gave me a very reasonable quote for the work in the basement and I accepted. Very soon the estimate got higher, and higher and in the end it was WELL OVER the original estimate. Things were left a mess and after some clean up, I was still left with significant mess, including having to paint part of my house. The basement now gets water and growing mushrooms and is much worse than when he started. He promised multiple times to return but never has. Just like any con man he seemed friendly and charming but please look for someone else to do your work.
Came out to the property and originally quoted $2,500 for light repointing. After an hour of work, told us it would be more than $10,000 of work. We felt that since the crew was on site and work was being done, we couldn’t call for a second opinion and had him proceed. His team left the basement, yard, and exterior an absolute mess after the work, and we had to reach out several times before he sent someone back to clean up the mess (still wasn’t 100% clean after the fact). Since the work has been completed, we have seen more water coming through the basement than before. He has been completely unresponsive to our questions and requests for him to check his work. His work was supposed to come with a ten year warranty, but we never got the paperwork he said he’d mail. And, if he’s unable to be contacted—what good is the warranty? We miss the basement we had, and believe we would have been better off leaving it as it was. I would recommend working with any other mason you can find, and to avoid Weather Stone Masonry and Construction at all costs.
