EXTRA CHARGE FOR TRAVELING TO LANCASTER, OHIO. WAS $70 MORE PER CHIMNEY COMPARED TO THEIR COMPETITORS. I DIDN'T HIRE THEM DUE TO HIGH COST IN ESTIMATE.

DUE TO HIGH GASOLINE COST IT IS COMPANY POLICY TO CHARGE EXTRA IF THE CLIENT IS LOCATED OUTSIDE OF FRANKLIN COUNTY.

IN THE PROCESS OF DOING THE WORK THEY REMOVED THE CLEAN-OUT TO THE CHIMNEY(AN OPENING WITH A REMOVABLE CAP) WHICH IS USED TO REMOVE FALLEN MORTAR, DIRT, ETC. IT ALSO ALLOWS ME TO SEE IF THE CHIMNEY IS LEAKING BY SEEING IF MOISTURE IS IN THERE. THEY DID NOT ASK ME IF I WANTED THE CLEAN-OUT REMOVED. I CALLED THE OWNER. HE LEFT ME A MESSAGE THAT HE WOULD PUT IT BACK IN, BUT THAT IT WAS NOT NECESSARY IN ANY WAY. I CALLED AND LEFT A MESSAGE FOR HIM ASKING HIM TO LEAVE A DAY THAT THEY COULD COME ON MY ANSWERING MACHINE, PREFERABLE AFTER 1:00 IN THE AFTERNOON. I GOT NO ANSWER, SO I CALLED AGAIN AND SAID THAT IF THAT WAS A PROBLEM, I WOULD TRY TO GET SOMEONE HERE FOR ANOTHER TIME. STILL NO ANSWER, I CALLED AGAIN AND ASKED FOR A CALL BACK AND STILL HAVE NO CALL BACK AS INDICATED BY THE LACK OF A MESSAGE ON MY ANSWERING MACHINE WHICH IS WORKING PERFECTLY. IT HAS NOW BEEN SEVERAL WEEKS AND NO RESPONSE. IF IT WEREN'T FOR THIS PROBLEM, I WOULD HAVE RATED THEM VERY HIGH.

THE 2 MEN WHO CAME OUT WERE NICE AND FRIENDLY. THEY ACTUALLY ARRIVED 1/2 HOUR EARLY, WHICH WAS FINE WITH ME. THE SERVICE WAS EXCELLENT AND THE PRICE WAS VERY REASONABLE.
Description of Work: WE BOUGHT A HOUSE 3 MONTHS AGO, AND BEFORE WE USED THE FIREPLACE I WANTED TO HAVE IT CLEANED AND INSPECTED. D M THOMPSON MASONRY RESTORATION CAME AND DID A CHIMNEY SWEEP. THEY EXPLAINED TO ME WHAT TYPE OF FIREPLACE WE HAD AND HOW TO BEST CARE FOR IT. THE INSPECTION DID NOT REVEAL ANY PROBLEMS.

MIKE THOMPSON IS A PLEASURE TO DO BUSINESS WITH. HE WAS HERE DAILY WORKING AND SUPERVISING HIS CREW. THE WORK WAS STARTED AND COMPLETED WHEN HE SAID IT WOULD BE WHEN HE GAVE THE ESTIMATE. THE WORK TOOK THEM 5 DAYS. ALL MATERIAL FROM THE OLD CHIMNEY WAS REMOVED. CLEAN UP WAS EXCELLENT. THE FINISHED CHIMNEY IS FIRST RATE. IT IS EASY TO RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY FOR A CHIMNEY REPAIR OR REBUILD.

ON THE 3 MESSAGES I LEFT REQUESTING TO SCHEDULE AN ESTIMATE I MENTIONED MY NEIGHBOR AND THAT I HAD SEEN THEIR NAME ON ANGIE'S LIST. ON MY THIRD ATTEMPT TO CONTACT THEM I PRACTICALLY BEGGED THEM TO CALL ME BACK. TWO DAYS LATER THEY CALLED AND THEN SHOWED UP TWO DAYS AFTER THAT WITHOUT A LADDER TO CHECK MY CHIMNEYS AND COULDN'T TELL ME A THING. SAID THEY WOULD COME BACK THE NEXT DAY WITH A LADDER, NEVER SHOWED, NEVER CALLED. I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO REACH THEM AFTER TRYING SEVERAL MORE TIMES AND THEY CAME OUT A WEEK LATER. I WAS GIVEN A BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM AND TOLD THAT THEY WOULD EITHER DROP AN ESTIMATE OFF THE NEXT DAY OR THEY WOULD MAIL IT THE NEXT DAY. SURPRISE, SURPRISE! I STILL HAVE NEVER RECEIVED THEIR ESTIMATE! I WOULD NEVER USE THIS COMPANY BASED ON THEIR POOR RESPONSE AND CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!
Description of Work: I NEEDED SOME CHIMNEY REPAIRS DONE AND WAS REFERRED TO THIS COMPANY BY A NEIGHBOR WHO WAS HAPPY WITH THEIR WORK.

Response from Thompson Chimney Services
WE CAME TO THE RESIDENCE FOR A LEAKING CHIMNEY. IT WAS OUR SUGGESTION THAT THE LEAK WAS COMING THROUGH THE ROOF AND NOT THE CHIMNEY. THE CLIENT WANTED US TO PUT UP A LADDER TO TAKE A CLOSER LOOK. AT THAT TIME A LADDER WAS NOT PRESENT ON THE ESTIMATING VEHICLE. WE DID RETURN AT NO CHARGE TO THE CUSTOMER AND PUT UP A LADDER. WE STILL BELIEVED THE LEAK WAS NOT COMING THROUGH THE CHIMNEY AND TOLD THE CLIENT WE COULD NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. WE SUGGESTED SHE CALL A ROOFER. NO WORK WAS EVER DONE FOR THIS CLIENT AND NO MONEY WAS EVER TAKEN BY D.M. THOMPSON MASONRY RESTORATION INC. FROM THIS CLIENT.

Description of Work: THERE WAS A GREAT DEAL OF VINES AND IVY GROWING ON THE CHIMNEY THAT WE WANTED REMOVED. THEY PROVIDED AN ESTIMATE THE NEXT DAY AND WERE ABLE TO COMPLETE THE WORK SEVERAL DAYS BEFORE THEY HAD INITIALLY ESTIMATED.

PEOPLE AT THIS COMPANY ARE FRIENDLY, PROFESSIONAL, AND CONSCIENTIOUS. DAVID THOMPSON WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND THE CALL OF DUTY ON THIS JOB. THE HOUSE LOOKS GREAT, BUT THE 'JOB' DIDN'T STOP THERE. WHEN I STEPPED OUTSIDE TO CHECK THE WORK, I LOCKED MYSELF OUT OF THE HOUSE. DAVID HAD HIS CREW BRING THE LADDERS BACK OUT, AND WE TRIED TO BREAK INTO THE HOUSE. IT WAS RAINING, AND WE WERE ALL SOAKED. WHEN THE BREAK-IN FAILED, DAVID GAVE ME A RIDE DOWNTOWN TO GET A KEY FROM MY PARTNER AND THEN HE DROVE ME BACK HOME.
Description of Work: CREW DID A CHEMICAL WASH AND CLEANING OF BRICK EXTERIOR--LARGE AREA ON BACK OF VICTORIAN HOME WHERE I HAD TORN OFF AN OLD PORCH AND STORAGE UNIT. (I HAD HIRED THIS COMPANY THREE YEARS AGO TO DO THE REST OF THE HOUSE.) WORK WAS EXCELLENT.

THEY SAID TO KEEP AN EYE ON THE CHIMNEY AND THAT IF THERE WAS STILL A PROBLEM THEY WOULD COME BACK AND PUT ON A MULTIPLE FLUE AND CHIMNEY CAP. IN OTHER WORDS, THEY WERE NOT TRYING TO MAKE MONEY OFF OF US BY RECOMMENDING A MORE EXPENSIVE TREATMENT UNLESS IT WAS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY.
Description of Work: FIRST OF ALL, THEY CAME OUT AND GAVE A FREE ESTIMATE (I REFUSED TO EVEN CONSIDER ANOTHER COMPANY BECAUSE OF THEIR RIDICULOUS CHARGE FOR GIVING AN ESTIMATE). THEN THEY RETURNED AND PATCHED A SMALL AREA OF THE CHIMNEY WHERE WATER WAS SEEPING IN FOR FREE!

WE THOUGHT WE WOULD NEED REPAIR, BUT THEY TOLD US THAT IT DID NOT NEED ANY REPAIR. THE CLEANING WAS A VERY DIFFICULT PROCESS BECAUSE WE HAVE A STUCCO CHIMNEY. MILDEW HAD FORMED AND THEY JUST CLEANED IT UNTIL IT WAS COMPLETE. THEY EVEN STOPPED BY AFTER THE WORK WAS DONE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS WE HAD. THEY REALLY WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND THE CALL OF DUTY.
