Description of Work: I felt I was pressured into buying a chimney lining with vague (though real) camera pictures from inside the chimney. A high pressure sale.

Service techs were pleasant but deceiving. Would not call this company ever again.
Description of Work: Came to my home to inspect chimney for issue. Service tech said he would have an estimate to me within 4 days. That was two weeks ago. I left two messages for him with no reponse. Not good business.

They didn't do what they were supposed to do and we are still fighting with them. We are trying to get our money back. They were very unprofessional. It was not a good experience. We set up an appointment and they came out to give us an estimate. My husband is a contractor so he is very knowledgeable but he doesn't do heights so he didn't want to do the chimney himself. We told them exactly what we wanted. They sent two guys out who didn't know much of anything. They didn't know what they were doing. They didn't bring scaffolding to go up to the chimney. They bent our gutters when they put the ladders up against our house. They broke shingles when they climbed up and down the roof. We paid them but we told them that they were not doing half of what we had agreed to. They said they would work something out. He answered the phone one morning by mistake without thinking about it. I told him that we really were not happy with the situation. He said he didn't have time to deal with it and he hung up on me. He was the owner of the company and I was telling him that his services were horrible and he hung up on me. I couldn't believe it. There was nothing good about the experience.
Description of Work: We hired Northeastern Masonry & Chimney to do chimney repair and a chimney liner.

Response from Northeastern Masonry & Chimney
The customer asked us to install a stainless steel chimney liner which was done and completed to satisfaction.The customer also thought masonry work at the top was going to be included.The invoice we gave the customer only included the stainless lining sytem . Yes the customer did call me which we were more than happy to perform the additional work needed at an additional cost.We apologized if there was a misunderstanding but there was never anything about masonry work listed on any invoice or quote.

NORTHEASTERN MASONRY & CHIMNEY I heard about Northeastern Masonry & Chimney, on Angie's List. The job went well, they did a good job and gave me an estimate on an overall repair but, time wise we had to get one done right away, so they will be back.
Description of Work: NORTHEASTERN MASONRY & CHIMNEY I used Northeastern Masonry & Chimney, to install a new stainless steal flue. It was in November and cost $1,200.

The job went well, but it was raining a lot when they were going to work, which delayed them a little. But when they got to work they did the job very well, were prompt and courteous. I would definitely use them again in the future.
Description of Work: I had them repair the top of my chimney and put a liner in as well.

Over all, they said they would come back & 'look' @ the chimney again, he sort of laughed, I thought about it, called them last week & canceled the return visit. Not wanting to bother with them again.
Description of Work: We had originally called them for an estimate on chimney repair & cleaning based on the reports from Angie's list, they seemed to be very good, neat & reasonable. Not - they are overpriced to say the least, they did not do our chimney repair, but proceeded to clean the chimney before I even got a chance to get a price on that. They new people that we hired to do the repair work asked us when the last time we had our chimney cleaned, I responded a couple weeks ago, he showed us the soot that was still in the chimney. We had not even had a fire since it was cleaned......Furthermore, they walked right in my kitchen through to the living room & onto the carpet with their boots on & never put down a tarp till I said, "glad I hadn't washed the floor or vaccumed". Their nexst trip in they layed down a tarp.

The persons who did the work were not professional, did not do the work in a timely fashion, and did a poor quality job. The chimney top is not plumb, the masonry looks sloppy, and the new chimney liner ended up being a diameter too small to fully and efficiently exhaust both the boiler and water heater which it needs to do. Needless to say, we were/are most dissatisfied with the work of Northeastern Masonry and Chimney and would not recommend them under any circumstances.
Description of Work: Took out old clay tile lining of chimney from boiler and water heater, put in new stainless steel liner, rebuilt top of chimney exterior (brick).

They provided a detailed estimate and completed the work a few weeks later. They installed a metal liner in the flue and rebuilt the brickwork and cap, then water sealed the entire chinmey. All of the employees were friendly and knowledgable. They performed the job in a timely manner and did not leave any mess.
Description of Work: They performed a chimney cleaning and inspection in our 1860's home, then performed the repairs including a new liner and brick repair.

Initial inspection was very thorough, showed me photos of the interior of the chimney and flues. Gave a detailed estimate listing all aspects of the work to be performed. I declined some of the offered services - no arguments or hard-sells. Job took a bit longer than expected and crew returned the following day (Saturday!) to finish the work. While they were on the roof, they cleaned out my gutters! Very professional and very clean. The chimney looks great, the boiler flue looks great. I would definitely recommend.
Description of Work: Repaired 75 year old chimney; pointing & repair on outside of chimney. Installed new pest screen. Installed new stainless flue liner for boiler, repaired masonry connections to hot water and boiler flues. Replaced fire brick inside fireplace; painted firebox.

Justin and his assistant showed up ahead of schedule and were courteous and explained the entire process before they began. They protected all of the surfaces where they were working with drop cloths and started their work. They hooked up a vacuuming and while Justin was on the roof sweeping, his assistant was sucking up the debris. They swept and cleaned the fire box and then cleaned the work area. The whole process took approx. an hour and a half. They were very thorough and took the time to provide me with literature to replace the tired hearth enclosure.
Description of Work: Removed dysfunctional gas log unit. Video scoped chimney flue and damper to inspect masonry. Removed bird caps, swept entirety of both flues and replaced caps. Cleaned interior of fire box and hearth.
