They were fabulous. They came on time. They totally protected my carpet. They didn't make a mess at all in my house. They told me what needed to be done with my chimney and they fixed it. They call every year and ask if I'm ready to have my chimney sweeped.

He came and inspected damage to my fireplace and returned ( on a very cold and windy day) and cleaned the fireplace and chimney and recommended repairs which I will have done when I can afford them.

The heater wasn't set right and was causing the problem. It did need cleaning, but it was not unusable. I found out later, that the part could have just been repaired without being replaced. I don't want to say anything negative because it was a difficult situation, but I don't feel 100%...

Chimney flashing repair: $150–$500

The cost to replace the chimney crown or top is about $1,550 on average. The range varies widely depending on the size of the chimney, the materials used, accessibility, and the extent of the damage. If you suspect a problem with your chimney top, call a professional masonry contractor for an inspection.

Some of the most common chimney problems include:

Cracked chimney top
Damaged flashing
Flue liner damage or deterioration
Damaged chimney cap

If you suspect you have a chimney problem, contact a masonry contractor for an inspection.

On average, chimney repairs cost about $455. However, because of the vast range of potential repairs needed, the cost to repair a chimney ranges widely from $160 to $15,000, depending on the type and extent of repairs required.

The cost to replace a chimney is about $10,000 on average and can cost up to $15,000, depending on the size, accessibility, materials, and extent of the replacement. Sometimes tearing the chimney down to the roof line and rebuilding it is an option. But if the chimney's internal structure deteriorates badly enough, a complete demolition down to the fireplace or the foundation may be necessary.
