Not good, he did show up for a quote which was given the same day on the spot. However, his receptionist is horrible. Since our estimate appt on Sept 10th I still am waiting to hear back from his receptionist. She sounds very young and has no training as to customer service. I have been trying to modify the service scheduled for October 10th and unfortunately I now need to cancel due to the fact I am getting absolutely no response. I would not recommend this vendor until he is able to rectify his front desk situation.

Response from Chimney Doctor
Hi all, George owner Chim Doc here. All I can say here is when I visited [member name removed], I spent nearly 2 hrs at her house assessing her home's many needs. Her house had so many major issues I can't begin to list them due to neglect, previous poor quality work, etc. I even took the time to get two of her gas fireplaces lit so she could enjoy them before we came back to do some work- many thousands. She was so happy to have found someone to address some of her many concerns, we really hit it off. For her to so ruthlessly slam my company not only makes me sad, but also makes me happy that I didn't do any actual work for her. I would have preferred she actually spoke with me before she wrote a scathing review. Sometimes its better just to walk away. There is a reason her home shows massive neglect issues. george

Poorly
Description of Work: I phoned to get estimate appt. 4 wks before appt date. I didn't feel confident the receptionist got it right so I called back 2 days later to confirm the appt. She said she indeed had it. Today I waited and the 10am appt time came & went without anyone showing up or calling. I phoned twice in the 45 minute period after the appt. No answer, so I left message. Finally at 11:15, 1.25 hrs after the scheduled appt time, receptionist called to reschedule. No apology! The reason I went with this company was for timing--& then they didn't even show! This doesn't bode we'll for service, so I am going with someone else. They may do good work, but I don't have that time to waste.

First I've heard of this one. I have never taken 4 weeks to get to any appt. Not sure what happened , I will look into it. I know there is a company with a similar name to mine that has a poor track record and I have been confused with them in the past. george /owner of chimney doctor
