Client Testimonials

“Five Boroughs did an incredible job repointing the entire front facade of our brownstone on Bedford Avenue. The mortar color match is perfect—you honestly cannot tell where old meets new. They were professional, on time every day, and left the sidewalk spotless. Highly recommend for any brick work in Brooklyn.”

“Our 1920s chimney was crumbling and leaking into the attic. The crew from Five Boroughs rebuilt it from the roofline up in just three days. The new chimney looks original to the house and the flashing work is flawless. No more leaks since the repair—worth every penny.”

“We needed a complete roof replacement on our two-family home. Five Boroughs handled permits, tear-off, and installation of new architectural shingles in under a week. The price was fair and the quality of work exceeded our expectations. Our neighbors have already asked for their number.”

“Had a serious roof leak during a nor'easter and Five Boroughs came out the next morning for emergency repair. They found the problem fast, patched it properly, and gave us an honest assessment of the roof's condition. No high-pressure upselling—just straightforward, quality work.”

“Five Boroughs waterproofed our basement after years of flooding during heavy rain. They installed a drainage system and sealed the foundation walls. This is the first spring in a decade we have not had a single drop of water downstairs. Absolutely life-changing work.”

“The tuckpointing work on our commercial building on Manhattan Avenue looks stunning. Five Boroughs matched the original 1940s mortar style perfectly. Our tenants and customers have all commented on how much better the building looks. Professional team from start to finish.”

“We hired Five Boroughs to build a beautiful bluestone patio and retaining wall in our backyard. The stonework is absolutely gorgeous—every piece fits perfectly. They also installed proper drainage so water flows away from our foundation. Dream backyard achieved!”

“Our condo board hired Five Boroughs for a complete facade restoration to comply with Local Law 11. They handled everything from scaffolding to DOB inspections. The building looks better than it has in decades and we passed inspection with flying colors.”

“Five Boroughs replaced our crumbling concrete stoop and front walkway. The new stoop has a classic brownstone look with beautiful detailing. They even added a non-slip finish for safety. Neighbors keep stopping to admire it. Outstanding craftsmanship.”

“The stucco on our building was peeling and cracking everywhere. Five Boroughs repaired all the damage and applied a fresh coat that matches the original color perfectly. The building looks brand new and the price was very reasonable for the quality of work.”

“Our parapet wall was deteriorating and causing water to pour into our top-floor apartment. Five Boroughs rebuilt the parapet, installed new coping stones, and waterproofed everything. The work has held up through two major storms without a single leak. Excellent.”

“Needed a new flat rubber roof on our warehouse. Five Boroughs installed an EPDM system with excellent drainage and a 20-year warranty. The crew was efficient, cleaned up daily, and finished ahead of schedule. Best roofing experience I have ever had.”

“Our chimney was in bad shape—missing cap, crumbling mortar, rusty flashing. Five Boroughs repaired everything in one day. They installed a stainless steel cap, re-pointed the mortar, and replaced all the flashing. The chimney looks great and works perfectly now.”

“Five Boroughs poured a new driveway and sidewalk for our home. The concrete is smooth, level, and they added expansion joints in all the right places. It has been through two winters now with no cracking. These guys know concrete inside and out.”

“We had Five Boroughs install new seamless gutters and flashing on our townhouse. The copper flashing work is beautiful and functional. Rain water now flows perfectly into the downspouts instead of cascading down our beautiful brownstone walls. Money well spent.”

“The brick pointing on our 1890s brownstone required an expert touch, and Five Boroughs delivered. They used lime-based mortar that is appropriate for historic buildings—many contractors do not know the difference. The result is a facade that looks authentically restored.”

“Our apartment building needed extensive waterproofing along the foundation and below-grade walls. Five Boroughs applied a membrane system and French drain that completely solved our moisture problems. The crew was respectful of our tenants and kept disruption to a minimum.”

“Even though we are in Queens, Five Boroughs came out to replace our aging roof. They removed three layers of old shingles, repaired the decking underneath, and installed beautiful architectural shingles. The attention to detail around our skylights was impressive.”

“Five Boroughs built a gorgeous stone veneer accent wall on the front of our home. It completely transformed the curb appeal. The stones are perfectly level and the grout work is meticulous. Every visitor comments on how beautiful it looks. These guys are true artists.”

“We manage several properties in Brooklyn and use Five Boroughs exclusively for all masonry and roofing work. They are reliable, fairly priced, and their work quality is consistently excellent. From small chimney repairs to full facade restorations, they handle it all. Cannot recommend them highly enough.”
