Limited review evidence: one scathing account of unskilled work and corner-cutting, against a 4.4-star average. The single detailed review contradicts the overall rating sharply, making the full picture unclear.
Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.

Michael Gotowala built strong client relationships through design skill and honest guidance. Reviewers praised his crew's execution and the lasting neighborhood impact of completed work.

Veis Sosoli works on-site for every job, completing tasks ahead of schedule and handling chimney rebuilds, patio repairs, and steps with equal care. Reviewers consistently cite his old-world craftsmanship, fair pricing, clear communication with photos, and thorough cleanup. His crew operates as a well-coordinated team that shows up when promised and finishes efficiently. Across 35 reviews, not one mention of a problem. The business has held a Connecticut HIC license since 2008 and covers the shoreline from Fairfield to New London County. Reviewers praise him specifically for assessing jobs personally, explaining repair options, and delivering results that look like new. One contractor with 30 years' experience called Sosoli's the best mason he has worked with.

Most reviewers praise Anelli's stone and fireplace work as exceptional. However, one customer reported a failed pizza oven built with incorrect materials instead of promised firebrick and heat-resistant mortar, with a second mason confirming the inferior construction.
