Description of Work: Jim arrived on time. He inspected and cleaned the chimney. Jim explained the process and showed me how to operate the flue. I was very comfortable with his working in the house. Great experience. I plan on having him back in three years.

He did not clean my chimney.
Description of Work: I needed my chimney cleaned. I sent an email. He was slow to answer my emails. When he finally answered, and I asked him when he could perform the service, he never answered me.

Description of Work: Came out and checked my chimney for winter usage............said everything was okay.........about 4 months later I had another company cleaning leaves from my gutters and they said my chimney was in very bad shape, this company does not do chimney repair so they weren't trying to "get me" for more money! So, I had to have my chimney repaired, Music Street Chimney never cautioned me about the shape of my chimney.

Description of Work: Recapped the chimney and repointed joints on brick stairs. |Exceptional job. Charged what he quoted, very prompt and professional. Highly recommend.
I saw the company listed as an Angie's List Big Deal. It's been awhile, so in truth, I don't quite remember the cost for the very comprehensive service, but think it was around $95 for a $130 service. I paid Angie's List and then called the company. They promptly returned my call and set up an appointment that was most convenient for me. The gentleman came out and as promised, thoroughly cleaned and checked our chimney. Since the price was reduced, I almost expected that something would be found wanting and we would be paying for additional repair services but --- I was wrong! Everything checked out, and the chimney was cleaned. I will definitely use this service provider again and highly recommend them.
Description of Work: He cleaned our chimney and checked it for cracks or other defects that would need to be repaired.

Called this company to have a chimney cap installed, based on an ad in the local paper. Company owner called me back quickly and was able to meet me same day to do a quick exterior and interior review of the chimney. He seemed very personable and thorough - just the kind of guy you'd want doing this. Said he would have come back over the next few days to actually go up on the roof and measure for the chimney cap (said I didn't need to be there when he did) and would also bring a handle to replace a missing one on our damper. Unfortunately, his first visit was his last visit. Have not seen nor heard from him since he first stopped by - 15 months later - despite numerous calls from me and my wife over the next several months. Not sure what's up with that.... (and still don't have a chimney cap...)

My call was returned in less than a day, and the person came out the next day to do the job. Showed up promptly, showed me the chimney before and after the cleaning. Also took the time to re-adjust the damper and point out some quirks about the fireplace I hadn't known. Cleaned up great. Would definitely recommend.
Description of Work: Came and cleaned what turned out to be a very dirty fireplace chimney.

The fireplace in the first house was checked but there were tiles down on the lining and they were inaccessible due to a firebox which had been installed. Consequenly, it can't be used or cleaned easily. In the other house, the one fireplace had an installed firebox which had not been installed correctly and prevented a proper cleaning to take place. That fireplace cannot be used. The other fireplace was fine and did not need cleaning as it had not been used since he cleaned it a couple of years ago. It was disappointing that 2 of the 3 could not be used. But it would take major renovation to change that.
Description of Work: He checked one fireplace one house and two fireplaces in another house. He cleaned one as much as he could, but it was partly blocked.

I called and left a message. In 3 days Jim called me back and scheduled a date. On that date he was doing a job near by and called me earlier than scheduled to ask if he could come, and I said yes. He came set up his equipment, did the job, cleaned up, and presented me with the bill which was what he had quoted me. We talked about the loose bricks in the chimney, and he said it was not something that needed immediate attention. I was very pleased with the whole experience and will call him again.
Description of Work: Jim Van Cleef cleaned out the fireplace and the chimney. He did a very neat job protecting the carpet and the floor; he also got on the roof and checked the chimney and advised me there are some loose bricks that should be taken care of eventually. Very organized and neat.

He adjusted it and explained it so I could see how it all works. He also offered to seal our other fireplace that we weren't using so there wouldn't be a back draft. I really liked him, he was prompt, thorough, and responded very well.
