Masonry company for stucco & pointing

Just had four stories of full repointing done by Z. Abedin, an outfit i found through recommendations posted here over the years.  They ground & washed out old mortar and mixed up appropriate mortar for old brickwork.  done in under a week, and also pointed out other issues to me (guttering, roof flashing etc) as they noticed them during their masonry work.

I need to repoint or stucco my Bed-Stuy multi-family building, and looking for a masonry company who does pointing and stucco, AND who is properly insured and licensed.  Any recommendations for a reputable company would be great!

We just had work done to replace/repair the mortar off the stone foundation in our basement.  We received a few estimates and went with J. Mos from Brownstone Authority.  We were very pleased with the work – actually better than expected!  I highly recommend him and his team.  FYI, the estimate from Millad (see previous post) was almost 3x the price we paid to Brownstone Authority and done in half the time.
