The work went really well. We were totally satisfied with every port of their procedure. They did have to come out to fix one part of the morter, where I was not totally satisfied. They were more then happy to do that.
Description of Work: The service provider removed the old propane insert, reframed the hearth, took everthing out, installed new deck work and fireplace. We had a custom mantle made and installed. They did all of the work which also included masonry work. The area covered 10 1/2" feet tall by 7" feet wide.

They were very honest and really entertained questions that we had. They were helpful overall but no doubt expensive. They were very informative on what steps we needed to take. They did find some things wrong with our fireplace. We would use them again in the future.
Description of Work: Troy's Spokane Chimney came out about 2 weeks ago and cleaned one chimney. They also did an inspection of both of our fireplaces and chimneys.

Despite all addresses for all of the homes in my neighborhood being prominently, clearly and unambiguously displayed, this company's employees tore down and rebuilt a completely undamaged masonry structure in the front yard of a neighbor two houses down instead of at our home as promised. When I told Mr. Parker I no longer wanted his company's services, he flatly and ungraciously refused to refund my deposit of about $750.00 (he had demanded 1/2 of the total project price as the deposit). The BBB then refused to help me, insisting that I should've let this company have another opportunity to come out and tear down the wrong masonry structure again. Two-and-a-half years later, in a completely unrelated series of complaints which had nothing to do with me, this company had its BBB membership revoked. This company continues to rent out display space from time to time at Costco. When we alerted Costco to this company's history of poor performance, Mr. Parker threatened to sue us for slander (never mind that truth is a complete defense against slander). This is one bad, bad company and company ownership. Their policy appears to be never, ever to issue a refund under any circumstances, no matter how poorly they perform.
Description of Work: This company promised to re-build a deteriorated masonry structure in my front yard from the ground up.

Their spaced-out employees went to the wrong house (two houses south of mine) and tore down and re-built that neighbor's front yard brick light post. When, based on that incompetence, I withdrew my request for services and demanded a full refund of my up-front payment, Mr. Parker's company flatly refused any refund whatsoever. The BBB, of which they were a member, refused to help. Ironically, on Dec. 8, 2009, the BBB formally revoked the accreditation of Mr. Parker's company, citing numerous unresolved complaints after a required suspension period for Mr. Parker's company.
Description of Work: This company demanded 1/2 of the total cost of rebuilding a large brick lighting post in my front yard ($750.00 of $1,500.00) up-front to do the project. The date above is just an approximation (it might have been in May of 2006 or in May or June 2007). I was prompted to enter this evaluation after seeing yesterday that Mr. Parker's company has been awarded a display space in the North Spokane Costco store.
