Braz Masonry

I am extremely glad that I chose Braz Masonry for my in-ground pool renovation. I got exactly the pool I wanted at the price I wanted to pay and the work was accomplished quickly by professional and courteous staff. Roberto Paiva really knows his stuff. Not only did he provide a great pool renovation at the right price but he also designed and implemented a solution to a drainage problem in my yard that had been troubling me for years. The company president, Roberto Paiva is friendly and approachable and is always available by phone to quickly address and resolve any questions. The Braz Masonry Team did all the work manually without bringing any heavy machinery on site and they cleaned up perfectly when the work was done. They always had plenty of people on site to get the work done quickly and there were no interruptions or delays

I hired Braz Masonry to redo my whole backyard since I wanted them to refinish our pool area. The owner Roberto gave us some incredible options and ideas and we loved our end result. His craft along with his crew is truly second to none. The whole team was punctual, professional, passionate about their work and overall an absolute pleasure. Roberto and his crew redid our whole patio and resurfaced our pool. The result is absolutely breathtaking and everyone loves it! I highly recommend them to anyone and will be hiring them again soon to redo my parents and in-laws backyard.

Stay away from this guy. I have no idea how there are positive reviews. He deleted his google after severa negative reviews. I want to make sure I post this review everywhere in hopes of saving other people money. We hired Roberto to remove a previous job and replace it with new pavers. The previous job was done by someone I should have never hired, but I wanted to save money. We did not want to make the same mistake and thought we found a good place in Braz Masonry. Hiring Roberto did not come cheap, $13,927 to be exact. The job was done in October of 2021. When they finished, there was cement all over the border of the pool (I attached a picture). Roberto sent his guys to clean it. I contacted Roberto after 6 months. I told him that I noticed that the job was really lacking sand. I also sent him a picture of the cement crumbles under the coping (also attached). I also told him that there was mud coming up where he put the drain and that it needed to be fixed. Roberto sent his guys to come and put more sand. When they left I told Roberto that it was still lacking sand and I might as well do it myself, in which he replied “a bag is only $7.” I told him the cement was still all around the pool. He laughed at me, ended up hanging up on me. I threatened a google review and he started texting saying “I have a family you know” and “I will send my guys.” His guys show up, he calls me, and I am not home. He tells me that his guys said everything was clean and they didn’t know what I was talking about and that he would come by the following week to discuss. Little did they know, I have a camera. They were at my house for 90 minutes - I have the video (see screenshot) Roberto sent me pictures when they left as if they came and went. Oh and by the way, Roberto never saw the finished job in person even though I asked him to come so I could show him. His response is that he trusts his guys and doesn’t need to come see it in person. I also have synthetic grass. The grass installer came to secure the border where the pavers meet the grass. He called me outside to show me that there was not any edging and that normally when they install the grass, there is edging to hold the pavers in place. He took pictures for me (attached) because he did not want the paver guys to blame him for anything. I called Roberto all nervous that there was not any edging. I was told that without edging, pavers will spread and sink. He told me he could not do the edging because we have fake grass, meanwhile, it was the grass guy who told me I needed edging. Then Roberto said he can come do edging, but I will need to pay extra for it. So… roberto wants me to pay to secure his paver job… lol. He has tried to make it seem like I am the crazy one, but the proof is in the pictures. The pavers are spreading and sinking in certain areas. There are still tons of cracks with little to no sand. He does not want to hear it. I know this review is long, but people need to know. Do not hire this guy. He is a thief and a liar.
