Rossitto and Sons excels at stonework, fireplaces, and chimneys with crews known for professionalism and attention to detail. However, recent concrete flatwork has drawn sharp criticism for finishing flaws, discoloration, crazing, and spalling within 1.5 years, compounded by the owner's dismissive follow-up and avoidance of warranty claims.
