I needed my stairs repointed and I got an estimate from this business. They were able to start the job right away.
It looked good and I had to go to NH to clean out my Army office since I retired.
I came back to this.
Holy Crap!
He told my wife that we could wash it off since it was water soluble. I wire brushed it for about an hour and got some of it off.
Really?! Why would you do this?

Better Business Bureau doesn't do much, but I'd still report them.

If he refuses to come back. Muriatic acid and a little brushing should clean it up nicely.

don't pay him. If you have try to get him back
That is water sol while it is still wet it will come off
once the milk sets it needs to be ground off with a grinder type device. It will eventually go away but could take a couple years
He needs to get his ass back and fix it!
He probably oversprayed the sealant and left it.
We have masonry cleaner but it probably wont work. It needs to be professionally cleaned off

Muratic Acid, a wire brush, and a power washer seemed to have done the trick.
It's pretty clean. 90% gone.

But there are no steps.
On Yelp one of the non-approved reviews pointed out that this guy's address was the same as DeSantis Chevrolet. I wished I had seen that.

him to small claims and present that pic along with a bill for having to clean it up.
BBB will also put a mark against him for others to see if you contact them.
I assume you removed the sealant, which is not a good thing. Show us the
before and after.
I would be screaming bloody murder if that happened to me. Keep the faith.

I had masonry work done to my front steps. It all fell apart within a few months. I used Joe Falco, Falco Masonry, He came back out gave me a bunch of baloney about how long it should last, It was peeling and lifting etc. I have all the pics. before and after and of my work... said he would come back in the spring because it was getting cold. He never did, I could have called him back but he did a horrible job and I didnt want him back. Substandard work for sure.
So I did it myself, I did have help on the big part.... isnt perfect but it got me through the winter. Came out pretty good for my first try. I need to touch it up here and there. I will have it professionally done at some point but I will good look at other peoples houses in person first. One thing I learned is that most of those pics on web sites are stock pics and not even that persons work.
Glad you got your stuff squared away Dave. They should have done it for you tho. Buyer beware.

I had him dismantle my brick stairs. He then built a new foundation and built me new concrete stairs which is what I wanted. Did them last Spring still look great. He then referred me to a an iron man who built me a railing. Very nice, very happy.
