Description of Work: They gave us a bid of $5000 to redo the mortar work and install a new cap on our chimney. We thought that was quite high (out of sight) so got another bid from Top Hat with a $550 bid. This was not an apples to apples bid, as Home Safe Wanted to start with new bricks and do a new flashing, all of which we had not requested. The job has not been completed by Top Hat yet, but it was obvious to my husband who did this sort of work in the past that they knew exactly what they were talking about. We also now have a confirmation from family about the quality of top Hat's work.

Response from Home Safe Hearth & Chimney, Inc.
Hi [member name removed], Thank you for the feedback. We appreciate your comments and we'll take them under advisement. As with all companies, we all bid things differently and, as you stated, we weren't bidding the same type of work that the competing company bid so the bids weren't really comparable. We appreciate your consideration and the opportunity to provide pricing to you for what one of our technicians felt was a fairly substantial job. I will be glad to review the bidding - I was out of town at the time it was bid, if you would like to see if there was a mistake. If you would like me to review that, please contact our office and I will gladly do that for you. Thanks again and, again, we appreciate the feedback.

Response from Home Safe Hearth & Chimney, Inc.
Hi [member name removed], I'm sorry we were unable to do that repair work for you when we did the service work for you. For that particular repair, it takes a different technician and a different setup on the truck. We've made contact with you to explain this and you had already chosen to have another company do the actual work, which we have no issues with. We appreciate the opportunity to do your service work and hope we can serve you in the future! Have a great day - it was a pleasure working for you! Bart Ogden, President Home Safe Hearth & Chimney, Inc. Wichita's Fireplace Experts Since 1979!

Thanks, [member name removed]! We appreciate your patience and understanding while we worked through a solution with your very unique installation and the way your home sat up on the hill and had issues with wind-loading on the north sidewall termination.

Fantastic.
Description of Work: Representative was punctual and very friendly. Looked in the chimney and said it did not need a cleaning but he would still have to charge the service fee, he brought his vacuum in and vacuumed and did an overall inspection of the chimney. We are very pleased. Thank you for the recommendation.
