What people are saying
“I hired Max and his crew to restore the exterior of an old, heritage home building in Toronto. The masonry was failing after years of neglect and needed to be repointed.
The brick was cracked, the surface flaking and some areas were beginning to show signs of mould issues due to water infiltration.
Max fixed it all. He provided a clear estimate to start, showed up to the site on-time, and finished well ahead of schedule. We’re already working with him on new projects.”
— Zak H.“Max is a pleasure to work with. I was blown away how much him and his team were able to get done in such a short period of time especially in this summer's heat. Always paying attention to details and making sure the work was completed to a high degree.
Not only did they clean up after the job was complete, they kept a clean and tidy worksite during the work. Highly recommend Max and Northern Shield Masonry & Landscaping!”
— Filip W.“Max is truly a master of his craft; his work is of the highest quality. He recently transformed my front porch, steps, retaining wall and driveway removing the very tired old flagstone and replacing it with a selection of beautiful stones that he ultimately recommended. (I live in a 95 year old house in the Kingsway area of Toronto).
Max was professional, responsive, creative, solution oriented and a problem solver. He has a keen eye for detail and respects and delivers against timelines. He makes a real point of leaving the site tidy at the end of each day.
And importantly, Max is a terrific, smart and fun guy who is fantastic to work with!”
