I ORIGINALLY HIRED THEM TO CLEAN MY CHIMNEY AND INSTALL A CHIMNEY CAP. THE PERSON WHO CAME OUT WAS VERY HONEST AND FORTHRIGHT AND SAID I DID NOT NEED MY CHIMNEY CLEANED. SO HE CLEANED ONLY THE BASIC AREAS, INSTALLED THE CHIMNEY CAP AND CHARGED ONLY FOR THAT.

THEIR PRICE WAS COMPETITIVE COMPARED TO OTHERS, WE USED THEIR ANGIE'S LIST DISCOUNT COUPON. EVERYTHING WAS EXCELLENT DURING THE 20 MINUTES IT TOOK THEM TO DO THE WORK. IF YOU CHOSE WHEMPIES YOU WILL NOT GET A VIDEO CAMERA INSPECTION AND ALL THE FLUFF; VERSUS A VISUAL INSPECTION FROM WHEMPIES. I WOULD HAVE PAID $70 MORE TO GET A VIDEO CAMERA INSPECTION.
