After five years of labor experience, David joined Brick layers "BAC Local 6" for a three year apprenticeship.

Outstanding customer service. Jake was courteous, knowledgeable and patient with my many questions. He said he could do work costing thousands of dollars, but it really wasn’t necessary. It is refreshing to work with someone this honest and trustworthy. He even came back a couple days later to answer additional questions I had. I highly recommend Force Masonry and will be using them for any concrete related projects in the future.

Jacob came to give an estimate for work to be done for my HOA. He basically told me he could do the work but that it would be a waste of our money because tuckpointing wasn't going to accomplish what we had hoped. I am grateful for his honesty and respect the way he does business. Even though I can't comment on work performed, I will definitely call him again if a need for masonry work arises.

First impressions alone set Force Masonry far and above the competition. Other contractors act like they don't have the time of day for you, but Force were quick with their response. They offered a free assessment and gave a very fair quote on price. The workers were efficient and professional, exceeding all quality expectations even after out-bidding competitors by a wide margin. I can't recommend them highly enough and will definitely call them for any further masonry projects!

Jake was so great! I am a local Realtor and he really helped the transaction by explaining to me his line of work, calling my buyer to help alleviate his stress, and gave a fair bid to repair a chimney. He is extremely knowledgeable about masonry and really cares to help all parties involved. I will highly recommend this company to any of my clients, friends, and family. You’re the best Jake! Thank you!

Force Masonry did a phenomenal job of repairing the area above our 2-car garage and around the front corner of our house. They identified the initial problem and other underlying issues along the way in a very respectful and professional manner. More importantly, they executed on the repair plan very efficiently and effectively. They were polite, clean & organized, and focused. We were so impressed by their work, we even expanded our scope of work to include the front window sills. They still finished on time. Initially, we were very concerned about cost, the brick and mortar matching, and possible

Used Force masonry to fix a leaking brick chimney. They came out to inspect problem in a very timely manner. Explained all the problems, and how they were going to fix them. Promptly sent out someone to install a tarp securely on my chimney so it wouldn’t leak worse before they came to repair. Very professional and very nice people to deal with.
I will use them in the future if any need arises.

I often have a difficult time working with contractors and Force Masonry was the only Peoria company that would respond to me when I needed to have my chimney rebuilt. Not only that but Jacob, the owner was pleasant to work with. When I went to visit the construction site, all the masons were very polite and explained to me the process of what they were doing. They showed me the damaged bricks and what I can do to better maintain brick based structures. I felt that everyone from the owner to the laborer were honest, hard working and at a very affordable price point.

Force Masonry follows through with exactly what they say they will do. They lay it out clearly as to what needs to be done even if that means they might lose a sale to someone who may not be so honest. Jacob Force is a powerhouse personality that cuts to the reality of the job and just gets it done with quality work.
