What Our Customers Say

From the homeowners and property managers we built for across Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky.

★★★★★

“Our 1920s chimney was crumbling at the crown and we’d been quoted by three other masons. Swiss Masonry was the only crew who actually got up on the roof during the estimate. The tuckpointing work blends seamlessly with the original mortar. You genuinely cannot tell where the repair ends. Cleaned up spotless every day. Worth every dollar.”

Margaret H., Hyde Park, OH

Chimney & Tuckpointing

★★★★★

“We interviewed four contractors for our stone veneer front elevation. Adriel’s team was the most knowledgeable by a mile. He explained the difference between real stone and manufactured veneer in plain English and let us decide. The finished façade is gorgeous. Three neighbors have asked who we used.”

Jennifer & Tom L., Mason, OH

Stone Veneer

★★★★★

“I own a small apartment building in Newport and had four units with water intrusion through failing brick. Swiss Masonry did the full tuckpointing and sealant job on a tight budget and tighter timeline. My tenants had zero complaints during the work. They handle commercial the same way they handle residential. With care.”
