Mike and his crew rebuilt the top of my chimney after a lighting strike. They tuck pointed a bunch of other brickwork around the house as well. They were very quick, professional and cleaned up after the job. I have already recommended them to my family. I would absolutely hire them again!

What started off as a great experience ended with disappointment. Mike completed work on my home to address sagging floor joists. He communicated clearly when the job became more difficult than anticipated and that the timeline would increase. Where things fell apart were completing the last punch list items on the job which involved buttoning up some exterior work that was missed by the team and installing a custom gutter, neither of which were ever completed. I followed up multiple times with no response after close to two months. Very disappointed as he prided himself on being different than your average contractor.Service: General construction

Mike and his son did a very neat and efficient job removing and replacing wood paneling before and after a water proofing repair. Mike also did a beautiful concrete pouring job of a block in our driveway including leveling. Looks great! Mike is very knowledgeable in many areas of house construction and home repairs. Monica and I would certainly use his services again.Services: Concrete pouring

Ever since we bought our home and for 7+ years now, whenever there is a bad storm, we get streaks of water in the basement coming in over the top of the foundation. We have had many trades professionals and companies that tried to fix what "might" be the problem and some that declined the work altogether. One of the waterproofing companies referred me to Mike. Upon his inspection he noted several issues that none of the other professionals saw. He made it his mission to solve my problem. Although they encountered some obstacles as is customary in home repairs, they stayed until every last item was completed. Now we have only had 1 bad storm so far but there were no signs of water leaking. Mike even called to check in after the storm to see if there were any remaining issues. Different from other trades people, Mike owned the problem until it was solved. He is responsive and forthcoming. I will definitely be calling Mike for any future home projects that I have.Service: Waterproofing

Mike was referred to me by the rep for U.S. Waterproofing. I needed to have my chimney and other places in the bricks in my house tuckpointed because there were wasps coming in my family room. When Mike came out to inspect he noted that caulking around some of my windows needed to be replaced. I also got a quote from another contractor who was not as thorough. I went with Mike and his crew and have been very pleased with the results! Since the tuckpoint I have not seen one wasp, fly or other insect in my family room!!!! I plan to use Mike and his company for additional work. I would highly recommend them.

Thank you Mike and your crew. You did a great job correcting a basement structural issue. We knew of one problem pointed out when US Waterproofing filled some cracking in the basement walls. Problems related to drainage caused additional issues and damage to brick and support for a three story wall. Also dropping floor support in the middle support wall. Your prompt response and estimate were appreciated initially. You and your team arrived on schedule and the repairs were done in a professional and accurate manner. There were a few additional costs involved from the original estimate but only from unforeseen extra work that was found during the job progressing. That is expected if you have ever done any work around the house yourself. It was addressed and done well. We are very satisfied with your work you did for us. Will definitely recommend your company to anyone that needs any work related to home repair. It is refreshing to have a person that is competent and knowledgeable in related building repairs that need to be done. Thank you again for a job well done!Ron and BETTY EILERS , Homer Glenn Il

Mike and his son came out a couple of days after I spoke with him to replace/repair mortar in my brick mailbox. They did a great job and even cleaned the capstone and caulked around the mailboxes! It looks great and was a very reasonable price for the amount of time it took them.

To update, it's been over 3 years since our chimney was sealed by Ancient Construction. We've had not one leak and confidently started finishing the basement last spring.

Mike, the owner, addressed an issue we had pertaining to selling our town-home. We came to find out his company actually did the masonry work on it 20 years ago when it was built!. Not only did he assess the issue the very same day we called him, he had valuable knowledge of the construction companies in the area and village building code standards. I would recommend his company to anyone needing such services. His work history is extremely impressive, and the quality, care and responsiveness is unmatched in a day when that seems to be falling by the wayside! What a plus that his whole family is in the business - not only his father but now his sons as well. Thank you Mike!
