Walter Grzebieniak Building Maintenance

In April, 2013 they tuck pointed and water sealed a two story brick and block wall, calked a window, 100%. We thought we were pleased as the work was completed in a timely way with at «5 year guarantee on all work». Interior moisture has returned on that wall and Greg now tells us that the construction of the wall does not have proper moisture barriers in the original construction. These conditions he says, are the causes of the moisture and are the same as when the work was done one year ago with the 5 year guarantee. Now we are offered an estimate for repair, not discussed with the original bid to prevent interior moisture.

Worked with Greg when our 8 unit condo building had some water issues in ²⁰¹⁰⁄₂₀₁₁. We received 3 bids and decided to go with Walter Grzebieniak Bldg Maintenance, Inc. They were on the lower side but not the cheapest. We are very happy with the work/​cost/​etc. Greg kept me in the loop during every step of the process.
We haven’t had any leaking since. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience from a contractor.

Terrible service, terrible management practices and terrible workmanship. They take weeks to finish work and do not keep you informed on the status or what they need. I came home to see an extension cord coming out of our side door in the middle of winter because they needed electricity, thank goodness someone was home to apparently let them use our extension cords and power which they had not informed us they needed in the first place. This would have held up the work even longer, after it had taken them weeks to even get started on it. They will harass you for money even before they start the work and after they are finished the day after they will demand payment immediately and continue to harass you until you pay. When I say harass I mean, they will email, call and then call and email other people in the building as well. Their work is also shoddy, we still had leaks in our roof after they were finished. Their service is so terrible I wouldn’t wish them on anyone and you should not use their service.

After doing tons of research, I decided to contact Walter Grzebieniak Building Maintenance, Inc. for an estimate. I had recently purchased a 100+ year old two flat. Both the building and and the garage needed tuckpointing since it was in bad shape. After meeting Mr. Grzebieniak and going over in detail what needed to be done I hired him. Below is what was done
Chimney rebuilt
Building 100% spot tuckpointed
basement window stone replaced
Rebuild the bottom tiers of both brick balusters
Replace support stones on both sides of balusters
3 car Garage tuckpointed 100% inside and out
I was not disappointed. All the work was done perfectly. Mr. Grzebieniak and his team know their stuff. If you need any type of masonry work done don’t hesitate to contact these guys.

Greg from Walter Grzebieniak Building Maintenance has completed two separate tuckpointing jobs for my 12-​unit condo building. They are consistently professional, responsive, and do very good quality work. The price is right too. They were timely, did exactly what they said they would do, and even cleaned up after themselves. I would use them again in a second and would recommend to anyone needing tuckpointing or brick work.
