Description of Work: I had them come to my new home to inspect and clean (if needed) two chimneys. They use cameras so they could show us all they saw - very cool. They looked at three chimneys for us and showed us where work was needed. We are having one capped this month, one in the spring and the third in a year. I appreciate how knowledgeable they seem to be, how well they communicate and show what they find and that they were willing to work with me in spreading out an expense I didn't plan for. I didn't know there were three chimneys and the third one is the one in the worst condition. I appreciate that they looked at everything though only called out to do the two fireplaces. I didn't compare prices.

Description of Work: I had the chimney cleaned which cost $248. Plus a new front to the fireplace with glass doors and screen. That cost $1500. |The young man who cleaned the chimney was to get back to me about the fireplace front, but 2 weeks later I had to call to ask when he was coming. The owner took over my ordering and installation. Both men were professional. I am very happy with the work that was done and the product I received. I will be using them again.
