A Toronto winter is hard on brick, and by spring the cracks in your steps, chimney or foundation wall are impossible to ignore. Every masonry contractor on this page carries a rating of 4.8 or higher, with a combined 368 Google reviews behind them, so the real question is which one specializes in the specific job sitting in your backyard.

Short answer: Otto's Masonry in East York leads at 4.9 stars across 88 reviews, the most of any contractor on this page, with Toronto Masonry Company (4.9, 80 reviews) and The Friendly Masonry Toronto (5.0, 54 reviews) close behind. Toronto Masonry Company specializes specifically in chimneys, while the others cover broader brick, stone and concrete work, so match the contractor to the job before you call.

How we score

Every number on this page comes from public Google data as of the verified date, not opinion or payment. Rating is the contractor’s live Google star average. Review volume measures how many customers have rated them, ranked against other Toronto masonry contractors. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 built on dozens of reviews carries more weight than one built on a handful. Recency reflects how recently customers are still leaving reviews. No contractor can pay to change these numbers.

What drives masonry repair cost in Toronto

Masonry pricing in Toronto depends heavily on the scope: a single chimney repair costs far less than a full repoint of a house or a new interlocking patio, and material choice (matching heritage brick versus standard) adds further variation. We don’t have a verified, published price list from the contractors on this page, so get a written estimate for your specific job before committing.

Serving the Greater Toronto Area

The masonry contractors above cover Toronto and the wider GTA, including East York, Etobicoke, downtown Toronto and surrounding neighbourhoods. Searching for a masonry contractor near me? Every listing below shows a live phone number and address so you can reach the closest option for a quote.

What to ask before you hire a masonry contractor

Do you specialize in this specific type of work (chimney, brick, stone, or concrete)?
Can you match the existing brick or stone on my home, especially if it’s an older property?
What warranty do you provide on the finished work?
Will the same crew or lead be on site for the entire project?
How do you handle unexpected issues found once the work begins?

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these masonry contractors?

We started from every masonry contractor in Toronto with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency, and recency. See How we score above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner (badge plus top placement), but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (August 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

Which of these contractors specializes in chimney work?

Toronto Masonry Company focuses specifically on chimney rebuilds, repair and liner installation. Otto’s Masonry and Buildstrong Masonry also handle chimney repair alongside broader masonry services.

How do I know if I need a repair or a full rebuild?

A qualified contractor should inspect the structure before quoting. Several contractors on this page, including Otto’s Masonry, describe advising customers when a repair will hold up rather than pushing an unnecessary full replacement.

The bottom line

Otto’s Masonry is the safe default with nearly 50 years in Toronto and the deepest review base on this list. If the job is specifically a chimney, Toronto Masonry Company’s specialist focus is hard to beat. Whichever you choose, get the scope and warranty in writing before work starts.
