Revive Masonry & Construction

Revive Masonry & Construction is a mason contractor based in Boston, and its Better Business Bureau profile puts its start at 2003 — a bit over two decades — while a Networx listing describes it more loosely as a family-run outfit with "20+ years" serving Boston and the surrounding Massachusetts towns. Its Google page carries a 5.0 average across 34 ratings, and the pattern across three dozen customer reviews leans strongly positive, with chimney repairs and basement or foundation-related concrete work the jobs that keep coming up. BuildZoom independently scores the company 90 out of 100, and the Better Business Bureau grades it A+, though it hasn't pursued formal BBB accreditation. A couple of things are worth checking before signing anything. The company is brand-new on Angi — no reviews there yet — and Angi's own listing puts its experience at just 5 years, which sits oddly against the 20-plus-year history BBB and its own marketing describe; worth asking which figure reflects the current entity or ownership. It also hasn't sought BBB accreditation despite the A+ grade, so that grade comes from BBB's own criteria rather than a membership review. Its Massachusetts home-improvement-contractor license (#214900) is active, which matters for a company doing structural and foundation-adjacent work. For a straightforward masonry job — a chimney rebuild, a cracked basement slab, a foundation repair — the volume and consistency of its Google reviews make it a reasonable call; just confirm which years-in-business figure is accurate and get the scope of work spelled out given that discrepancy.
