Things went very well and the workers were unobtrusive.
Description of Work: Capital was great on so many levels. The cleaned our chimney and recommended a new flue cap. I didn't want it at the moment, but they happily scheduled the service several months later. They were also fabulous with scheduling when my flue chain disconnected and needed to be fixed.

They made a mess and did not clean everything up. Of course said there needed work done but only provided pictures many days after the fact, so little could be discussed at the time.

Thank you so much for your response. We are happy that you were satisfied with our work.
My first conversation with Capitol Chimney Services was over the phone with their office assistant, who was just very professional and immensely helpful. This, As I was in desperate need to have a professional inspection of the chimney of a TownHouse I was in the process of buying. Due to unexpected issues on my end, Capital could not got into the property and I had to find a different chimney inspection company and pay more... Bottomline, out of the three BIDs I got to fix the Chimney Capitol Chimney Services LLC was the lowest bidder. One bid was at over $12,000 and a second one for over $9,000 both felt like highway robbery. I had a very positive conversation with Roger their crew and site manager, who was very professional and reassured me that Capital Chimney Services would do a amazing job without over charging. Today their amazing crew finished the work and I felt that I needed to share with everyone at Angie's List that if you need any work on your Chimney/Fireplace you can put your trust on Capitol Chimney Services LLC.
Description of Work: Campital Chimney Services came out and repair the Chimney of our new TownHome, which had being unused and neglected for 20 years. They promptly and very professionally replaced the fireplace liner with stainless steel one both for the of basement and main levels. They removed and dispose of two satellite dishes attached the the chimney and repair. Parge smoke chambers and replace breakout flues. Power wash the entire moldy chimney and TownHouse sides and waterproofed the chimney.

It went very well. They performed a complete inspection after the cleaning. Found some things I should do before burning any wood and things that should be done but weren't a danger. Provided estimate and follow up.
Description of Work: Had not had a fire in our fireplace for about 12 years. Needed the chimney cleaned and inspected.

It went pretty good. They cleaned my chimney and gave me some pretty good advice. My flue was a little out of whack and they fixed that at no additional charge. The Big Deal price covered everything. They were very neat and there wasn't anything for me to clean up. There was no mess. I think before next winter, I will have them come out again.
Description of Work: I purchased a Big Deal for a $99 chimney sweep and safety inspection.

Great! We didn't need to be home. I was offered a chimney inspection at a reduced rate, though I declined. Chimney cap was supplied and installed without issues. All I had to do was say, "I think it's a standard size, but I don't know. It looks square." Chimney cap has a lifetime guarantee.

The Company did not have weekend appointments available in our area on the weekends. They stated they would for sure be in our area on a weekday between 9am-1pm in which my husband took a full day off of work to have the services performed. I contacted the company at 1:45 pm to find out why nobody had shown up and long story short, the very kind and professional secretary informed me that she did not know what happened but that a technician could come prior to 4:00 pm. Having two children to pick up at different locations (hence the reason we wanted a weekend appointment but settled for an early weekday appointment) this would not work for us. I called to request a refund and it was granted.

Ms. [Member name], Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with our company. Especially since we personally know how hectic the weekdays can be with work, and having to pick up children. The mistake was made on our end and we wanted to assure you this is not the norm for our company. If you would like to reconsider us, we would be sure to discount future service. We could also offer a Saturday appointment in the future. Please feel free to contact us directly if you would like to speak further about this matter.

i scheduled estimate with company and started scheduling things around it. a few days before appt, their office started leaving voicemails, claiming they had misscheduled me and asking to reschedule, i was unable to oblige their request. but i called them offering to allow them to come in the morning (on the day to which they wanted to reschedule) but then didn't receive a return call, so called to reconfirm our original appt. then the company called me yet again to try to reschedule to time they wanted (which i had already told them i couldn't give to them), then said their tech would call me in the morning. then the tech called (and woke me up) the morning of appt asking if they could come that morning, in about an hour. because they had woken me up, i was confused about the time - but then called them back to oblige their request. when they finally came, a different man from the company unilaterally refused service, claiming that i had previously refused them. i do not recall having previously contacted this company -- but found that scheduling this visit was an unduly onerous exercise in futility.

They were on time, worked professionally and were very protective of our home while they worked. The job turned out more complicated than they expected,but they did not upcharge us. They followed up to make sure the chimney drafted properly (which it did).

I was home when they came. My wife had already cleaned out the fireplace. They told her she just did a big part of their job. They were very professional and worked hard for their money. My chimney was dirty (2 years). They pushed to fix the fire brick but were polite when I refused. I would definitely hire them again.

All went well. The team of two was efficient and friendly. They arrived early and were very gracious and were quick to move furniture as needed.. My only disappointment was that they made no effort to cover their shoes or ask if I would like they to do so. As I have an expensive carpet I was concerned. However, in the end, no damage was done. I would hire them again -- and provide booties.
