Joe was able to get out to the home within a few days of talking. He sent me inspection paperwork the next day and insurance company was satisfied with the report. We're closing on time this week because of Joe's quick response time.

Joe responded to my email right away in the morning and then came out that same day. Joe was the only one of 4 companies to actually go up onto my roof and check it out. He took several pictures that he sent to me (much appreciated so I was able to see how big of a problem it was!) along with a quote that same day. He also noticed that a vent next to the chimney needed a new cap and included a picture of it as well. Joe's quote was the same as the other companies even with Joe including fixing the plumbing vent that the others didn't notice. He also was the only one to break down the quote to show the cost for each part of work he would be performing. I ended up not hiring Joe because I found out that my uncle was able to fix my chimney this weekend ( I didn't know my uncle had the experience to do it ). Joe was by far the best company I had come out and I'm keeping his number for future reference.
Description of Work: I needed a new chimney topper. The chimney had condensation on it on the inside of my house.

Joe and his crew showed up on time, worked diligently, did a great quality job and cleaned up the work site. The replacement bricks and mortar matched the existing very well and there were little extras like a drip edge on the cap which showed they knew what they were doing and cared about the long-term quality of the work. Very happy I selected them.
Description of Work: Replaced the chimney top bricks and cap that had deteriorated after 35 years.

Fantastic. Joe was very helpful explaining the problem and solution. He found additional problems during the rebuild that could of cost more money but he just fixed it. His team takes a lot of pride in their work. I highly recommend these guys for chimney work.

They were so good! Prompt, professional. They fixed a lot of bricks, and there is no sign of any patching. The chimney is perfect now, and should last a long long time. We would recommend this company highly!
Description of Work: Chimney had plants growing out of top. Totally disintegrating! You can't see it from the pictures, but bricks were flaking off in pieces. We sure needed something done fairly fast.

They did an excellent job. They responded back to me very quickly and provided a quote with pictures that showed me the damage to my chimney. The quote was very competitive. They got to my job very quickly and showed up on time. They laid out tarps to cut the bricks so not to damage my yard and cleaned everything up. You could not even tell they were there after they left. My chimney was repaired and he explained everything they did and showed us pictures of the finished work so we did not need to go up on the roof to see it ourselves. I would highly recommend Guardian Chimney for any chimney repair work. All the work was done in a single day.

Timely, professional, friendly, thorough. The cost was not inexpensive, but was comparable to estimates made by those with less certifications and experience. Work was done as explained on their website. Cleanup was thorough and except for the fresh mortar look which will change, matched very well.

I had two bids on the project, and I selected Guardian because they were quicker with both the initial response and with their timeline to get the project done. Their cost was also about 25% lower than the other bid. Joe let me know when they were coming, and their crew of 5-6 guys finished the project efficiently and with great attention to detail. The clean-up was perfect. I don't plan to fix my chimney again, but I'd suggest that everybody else give them a call.
Description of Work: Our chimney was completely falling apart. We've had bricks crumbling and falling off the chimney for years. The top plate was also cracked and water was not shedding correctly. We had deferred this project since we moved in 12 years ago, and last winter we decided it was time to fix it.

Great! We are very happy with the finished product.
Description of Work: We contacted Guardian Chimney by a referral we received from our neighbors about our deteriorating chimney. After a technician came out and evaluated our chimney, they were able to provide a quote on the spot and my wife and I decided to hire them. They came out and completed our project when they were scheduled to do so and we are very pleased with their work. There was no mess left behind and our chimney shows well. We would gladly use them again and recommend them to others.

Guardian did a great job. They provided good customer service in getting us an estimate, when scheduling the work and got the work completed in a timely manner. They had good craftsmanship, the new chimney looks great and they showed a nice attention to detail.
Description of Work: Guardian Chimney Solutions rebuilt our chimney from the roof up. The old chimney was falling apart, so the top had to be completely rebuilt.

They came out within a week to take a look at my chimney, which I had been told by my home inspector was in pretty rough shape. Then as soon as I accepted the bid, they had the chimney fixed within a few days! Very happy with their work.

Guardian provided a thorough quote of all the work that needed to be done and turned the job around very quickly, holding true to the quote. Pictures were taken before, during, and after the job to show me the progress and results. Fantastic work by a great company!! I've had them work on both my house and my rental property and given their name to family and friends!

Fantastic! They were prompt, professional, friendly, and they did a great job! As a professional Realtor, I will recommend Guardian to all my clients, friends, family, and neighbors with complete confidence!
Description of Work: My chimney needed tuck pointing as it was seriously deteriorating. I had other estimates that required basically a complete redo of the chimney, however that wasn't necessary and Joe came out and explained what his crew would do for a whole lot less $$ and it was exactly what was needed to correct the problem for less than half the price I was quoted by other companies.

It was a much bigger job than I had anticipated but I'm so glad Joe realized that the chimney needed some work. A few days after I received the estimate and agreed to the work he called me one morning and asked if he could come that day. He and his crew were able to get it all done in one day. They removed the old top and replaced it with some added protections to enhance drainage and protect it from future water damage. They treated the bricks down to about the roof line to protect them more water and weather damage. He explained all that he would be doing I felt like it was all good quality touches to not only repair but to protect. Of course he also fixed the loose brick and removed and then filled in the mortar/chipmunk damage.
Description of Work: I called Guardian Home Solutions because I had a loose brick and some places where the mortar had deteriorated. Joe came out to the house to look it over and to give me an estimate. He was pretty thorough and climbed up on the roof to check the chimney. Good thing! He showed me pictures from up there and there were big cracks and more deterioration.

Guardian Home Solutions was recommended to me by friends who had similar work done on their chimney. They were very happy with their services, and we are too. When I called, Joe, the owner, answered and we made arrangements for him to come out and give an estimate a few days later. After deciding to go with Guardian Home Solutions, Joe contacted me and the work was scheduled for just a week later. Weather ended up being poor that week, but Joe reached out to communicate changes to the schedule. The work was done in one day, and the crew did a great job cleaning up. The brick they used matched my existing brick perfectly. Overall, I was very impressed with the communication, speed, and quality of work. I've already recommended them to other friends.
Description of Work: The entire chimney was rebuilt (about 15 rows of brick) after spalling damage was too bad to repair.
