Description of Work: Royal Chimney was referred to me byWildlife Control Service because I had a squirrel get into the chimney of my steel free standing fireplace. In the process AWC noticed my chimney cap has a gap. I called Royal Chimney because I wanted it repaired or replaced. I was told I needed to provide a model number. The fireplace is 40 years old; I don't have paperwork or model number. I was told that if they saw pictures of it, perhaps they could help. I sent pictures. They called back asking again for a model number. I don't have a model number. They said they would come out and look at it for $129. I said no. (I notice they advertise free estimates~~"ask for details") They did not return my call after I sent the pictures for 2 days. I spoke with an office person both times, not a technician.. The individual I spoke with was not helpful and not customer friendly. Royal Chimney apparently don't need business and can't be bothered. Thumbs down!!!

Response from Royal Chimney Service
The homeowner was advised that her pre-manufactured metal fireplace was no longer supported for parts by the manufacturer. By industry standards after market parts or altering the original system is not authorized by the manufacturers of this type fireplace. We told her if she could send us the make and model number from the tag in the firebox we could confirm if parts are supported any longer for her 40 year old fireplace. She was upset we would not come out for free to inform her what we were able to tell her over the phone: We can not service her metal prefab fireplace as the manufacturer most likely is no longer in business and parts are not available. We have not received any manufacturer's information about her fireplace to ask our trade association members discussion list if anyone has any used parts available for her fireplace. Trying everything we can to help her out but if parts are no longer available we can not alter this fireplace system.

Description of Work: The firewall panel in the back of my fireplace had cracked and needed to be replaced. I called Royal Chimney Service and was greeted by an extremely friendly, helpful person (I wish I could recall her name) who set up an appointment to have Dave come out that very same day to see if he could possibly fix it that day. Dave did come out but did not have the panel he needed on the truck. So I arranged to have Dave come back the next week to install the panel, which he did. Dave was on time,very professional and offered many suggestions on how to burn fires in the fireplace to avoid the possibility of the wall cracking again (this is the second time I have had to replace that wall). Told me about firebacks. I would highly recommend Royal Chimney Service.

Description of Work: I called yesterday and scheduled an appointment for today between 8:30 - 10:00. They did not show. While mistakes are made this appointment was made less than 24 hours ago. I stayed home from work and took 1/2 day of vacation so I could be there to talk to them about the work I wanted completed. Looking elsewhere now for service that I am willing to pay for.
