They were professional, courteous, and took pictures to show me what was needed for the chimney and why. I'm not too surprised, since this is a 40-year-old house and it has never had chimney maintenance. They offered to set up a date to do the work, but there was no pressure. Since the cost is pretty high for the repairs, though, I plan to get other bids before I move forward. In the meantime, Patterson put a square stepping stone over the top of the chimney opening so I would not have rain or critters falling in. That was nice. We just can't use the fireplace until we get this fixed.
Description of Work: The chimney cap had blown off the top of my chimney and a replacement was needed. Patterson came out the next day and inspected the chimney and fireplace. They said the fireplace area was fine, but the chimney needed about $1,500 worth of work, since the concrete around the chimney was fragile and would not support a new cap properly.

They did an awesome job. They were polite, courteous and professional. I called them out because we were getting ready to sell the house and the buyers requested we have the chimney checked. We called them, they did the job. They inspected the chimney and said it didn't need cleaned but they said they could clean up your gas logs and we had them do it. I didn't feel like they needed improvement on anything, they did an excellent job. I would use them again in the future if needed.
Description of Work: They inspected the chimney, cleaned and rebuilt the gas log part of the fireplace.

Job was done on time and at first seemed well done. After they left we noticed a loud hiss from both fireplace pilot lights. Called Patterson they said it was normal. After a couple of days decided to call the manufacturer who told me how to make a simple adjustment . No more noise. We then noticed a gas smell and called them. Installer came out promptly and reported " not his problem". Likely the pipe has cracked call a plumber who tightened two connections on the install. No mor gas leak. Called Patterson and they said they were glad we were able to fix the leak. They will never work in our house again.

Very honest and honorable in their work. Thought our "new" house might need the chimney cleaned, but they determined it was fine and did not charge the expected cleaning fee (only for the inspections and recommendations). Would definitely recommend and use them again.

They did a great job. Not only did they fix the mortar issues but also were very thorough in finding the cause of the issues and resolving it. They were very clean and made sure to lay a protective tarp inside by the fireplace. I have used them in the past and will continue to do so in the future.
Description of Work: They had come out in November to inspect our fireplace and found some mortar had deteriorated in the firebox. They came out to repair the mortar and found that the chimney cap was rusted out. They thought this may have been the cause of some water getting into the chimney and thus causing the mortar issues, so they replaced the chimney cap as well.

Description of Work: They had inspected our fireplace in the previous month and had discovered that mortar between bricks in the firebox had deteriorated, probably due to moisture seeping through cracks in the mortar at the top of the chimney stack. They also discovered the chimney cap had rusted in several places and needed to be replaced. We had to wait about three weeks before they could come back to make the necessary repairs because the work would require a few hours that they didn't have available on the day of the inspection. The appointment in January 2014 was to make the needed repairs. The technician arrived on time and quickly completed the work needed inside the house first. He put down a tarp beforehand in order to protect the rug in that room. He replaced the missing mortar in the firebox. He then went outside to make the repairs to the mortar needed at the top of the chimney and replace the chimney cap. Obviously, I couldn't personally inspect the work he did in regards to the mortar at the top of the chimney, but I have no reason to think it was not done well. We used this firm many years ago to do other work on our fireplace and they did a good job then, too. |

I was pleased with their service. They did a good job. They were very professional. They charged me $75 and it seemed a little steep to me, but it was the first time I had anybody come out and fix a fireplace. So I think that's the going rate. The quality of their work was good. I was quite satisfied with what they did. They got out within a couple of days after I called them. They also came on time. I would use their services in the future too.

We discovered that our chimney cap had blown off in hurricane Ike when we experienced significant water coming into the house from the chimney during a heavy rainstorm. We fixed this by having a new chimney cap installed (a high quality stainless steel) and the crown sealed as an additional precaution. We then had the chimney waterproofed with a product called "Chimney Saver" for additional protection. This company was very responsive to our needs. Work was done over several days and we were advised of status in a timely way. The cost was just as quoted.
Description of Work: Several jobs done. We had our chimney hat blow of in hurricane Ike. This replaced ($200.), We also had the chimney crown repaired ($300.). For additional assurance we had the chimney coated with "Chimney Saver" waterproofing ($500.).

They're a local company in my town. They completed the job during one visit. They came right when they said they would. There was a little mix up with the supplies but another person from the company came right out to deliver the correct materials. I'll be using their services again if I need to.

I was happy that he did not charge me quoted price of 100+ for cleaning that I did not need.
Description of Work: Called about removal of wasps and a cleaning of fireplace/chimney. Upon a late arrival (he called and told me he would be late) I was told that a nest in the chimney is impossible and he told me how to get rid of them (he was more helpful than the exterminator I used). He said fireplace looked as it was never used and he charged me only for a service call.

The chimneysweeper answered my call quickly and came to give an estimate. He was very reasonable with his prices and was able to explain the dangers of a stopped up chimney and the hazards it can cause. The cleaning was scheduled as soon as a day and time were set, and the chimneysweeper was on time. He climbed through the attic, scraped with a wire brush and brought several bags of junk down that accumulated in the chimney. He put a stainless steel cover on the chimney top and cleaned up any mess leaving the attic spotless.
Description of Work: Patterson & Sons Chimney Sweep cleaned out my chimney, as there wasn't a cover on it and birds had set up house.
