Authentic Restoration Inc

I needed tuckpointing, masonry repairs and ornamental stone repairs on my historical commercial building. I looked at many contractors actual work only to find that they were not at all able to correctly match or replicate any of the materials on my building and I was lied to about their restoration abilities.

I contracted with ARI, Authentic Restoration, Inc. and I am very glad I did. They are true master craftsmen and the quality of the work they did was truly superb. You can not tell my building walls and ornamental stone work ever had any damage. Colors and features match and look perfect ! My building looks like it never had any repairs done to it and they did lots of work on it. Unbelievable, outstanding craftsmanship ! This company is dedicated to excellence and is A-1 fantastic !

When I had issues with mortar ...



When I had issues with mortar and rocks literally falling off the front of my house, I employed the services of Authentic Restoration, and was impressed with the excellent workmanship. My home was restored to look better than it did before there was a problem. I have found Authentic Restoration to be very knowlagable, prompt, courteous, and trustworthy. In fact, I was so impressed by the quality of work done by ARI that I referred this company to my employer, to repair structural damage on our office building. He too was extremely satisfied. I would highly recommend this company. Great Job!

I would never use anyone other than ARI.

1. Their work is seamless--looks as if it were always there.

2. What they do LASTS because they deal with the cause--not just cosmetics

3. ARI starts the job when promised and finishes on schedule.

4. Their prices are reasonable; in line with other estimates.

I have a 1920's Mediterranean Revival house with a curved four-step front porch that supports 4 massive stone columns. There was a deep crack across the top and slabs of concrete were starting to fall away on both sides.

Authentic Restoration, Inc., (ARI) REPAIRED and RESTORED the porch to its original glory. It doesn't LOOK like a new job; it just looks as if it never HAD a problem !



House is at 5300 W. Garfield.
