Facade Work Recommendations
Hello, Can anyone recommend a contractor who specializes in facade work? The specifics of the job are as follows: * Powerwash and repoint front facade of a brick rowhouse which also has brownstone accent; * fix brownstone accents to the extent damaged/cracked; * redo a stoop which is brownstone with concrete railings. Also, after the powerwash and repointing should the brick be sealed/waterproofed in any way? Thanks in advance, EJR

I highly recommend Anthony the Mason, 347 307 4725\. He did a facelift on our brownstone. We found him here on this site! He sculpted in missing rosettes, fixed the stairs and railing and ribbon. Great job

I have used excellent contracting for my brownstone with very good results. They posted a whole detailed description of their work here on brownstoner and a simple search will bring up their article. Whoever you choose, make sure to ask to see some of their work and talk with the building owners who have used them. good luck

The archives should have a lot of recommendations & discussions. I like VinRoy Barronnette of Park Slope Brownstone – does excellent work. 646 554 4513
