masonry, chimney repair
 + 0 moreEstimate was given one day after I called. It was a fair price and they did not try to give me a load of BS about the type and extent of repairs needed like another company did. Job was done well and to my satisfaction. The whole team communicated well with each other and we all made certain nothing was missed. Please note; I am a single, female senior citizen. This is the 3rd home I've owned and repaired myself. I really do appreciate finding honest, reliable workmen who do not take me for a sap with an open wallet.

 + -1 moreCalled this company and spoke to John. I was trying to schedule a safety inspection of my fireplace so it could be used for thanksgiving dinner. John had no openings available. John strived for customer satisfaction and took some of his own time the following day to make room for a quick visit to my residence. Turns out my fireplace was practically new and never used. No service was needed. I tried to pay John for responding, but due to no work being performed he declined payment and was happy just with customer satisfaction. He was informative and appeared to be a trustworthy contractor who believes in customer satisfaction. It was apparent the reputation of his business and its practices meant something to him. I will use this company for future chimney sweeps or work as well as recommend to friends. .

 + 0 moreVery satisfied with the ease and efficiency of this repair. As we were selling our home, we needed to get our chimney repaired quickly. We got a call back almost immediately after leaving a message (during evening hours) and had someone out to quote the job with 48 hours. After authorizing the work, we were scheduled within one week for the work. Craig and another worker showed up promptly at our home for the service appointment, and had the liner installed in less than 30 minutes. They finished the exterior work efficiently, and completely cleaned up the dust and debris. The chimney now looks great with the much needed tuck pointing, and the color match on the mortar is spot on. Additionally the cap looks as good as new, and I'm sure will last for a long time for the new home owner. Our next home has a chimney, and should it need work we will not hesitate to give this company the work.

 + 1 moreJon is absolutely fantastic to work with. He is a true partner and presented us several options on the house we sold to minimize the costs. We enjoyed working with him so much that he was the first person we called to complete an inspection at a home we were purchasing and we then used him to complete the necessary repairs. I would highly suggest Jon for any of your chimney needs.

 + 1 moreHired Milwaukee Chimney & Room to fix a leak coming from my chimney into the house. Contractor performed work, appeared to have fixed issue initially. During heavy winds and rain, water seeped in subsequently (months after service). Called Jon Ossoinik, President, regarding the issue. Jon assured he would come inspect/repair. Never showed up. Called a second time a couple month later. Jon again stated he would come and inspect. Never showed up. Extremely disappointed now with having to find another contractor to fix the chimney leak.

 + 1 moreExcellent tidy service. On time and very quick. They also told us that we didn't need to clean every year, and that it's based on the amount of wood we burn, even though that meant we would use them less frequently. That honesty means we'll have them back repeatedly.

chimney sweep, chimney repair
 + 0 moreI use this service to clean my chimney. There are times they come out, and if it doesn't need cleaning, they tell me. No charge. My home was built in 1930's, and the damper no longer closed correctly. They were not able to do the work in the winter due to snow, but closed it, so it would not leak heat. They came out in spring, did a very professional job, and gave me a new crate to try out. If I like it, I will buy it, and I do like it. I had also lost the metal cover to cover the hole in the fireplace where the ashes go. They gave me a metal cover at no charge. They did a great job cleaning up, came on time, and were very professional to work with.
Description of Work: Installed a new damper.

chimney repair
 + -1 moreThe technician was honest about what could have caused the concern during the furnace tune-up, and the fact that no work on the chimney/flue tiles is needed at this time in addition to the likely remaining life expectancy of my furnace. He also offered insight as to what could be causing an unrelated issue with my fireplace and suggested a solution. I would definitely use them in the future for work.
Description of Work: They arrived on time and were both friendly and professional. It had been suggested that I have a chimney inspection based on concerns during a furnace tuneup.

 + -1 moreIt went great. John and Kevin were very thorough and professional..John went up on the roof and cleaned from the top down and Kevin cleaned from the inside and the bottom up. They removed quite a bit of creosote and soot. This is our first fireplace and they took the time to answer our questions about the operation of the fireplace and gave us some helpful hints. It was a pleasure to have them in the house and they cleaned up perfectly, so they did not leave any trace except a good feeling of a job well done.

chimney caps, chimney repair, chimney sweep, masonry
 + 2 moreAll the work went very well. John and crew arrived right on time, Thursday, Sep 19 at 10:00 am. John explained the time-table: they would do most of the work that day and return Tuesday after the mortar and concrete were cured to remove the forms and clean up. They finished what they said they would Thursday as promised and returned as promised on Tuesday to finish. On Tuesday, Sep 24, they removed the steel forms and applied an acid wash to remove residual cement so the chimney looked great. They were friendly and informative as they worked and took time to tell me what they were doing.
Description of Work: They repaired our chimney to better than new! We have a double chimney, i.e., with 2 flues, one serving our 2 furnaces and water-heater, the other a fireplace. John and his crew of two: Removed my 40 year-old crumbling chimney cap. They also removed 2-3 courses of bricks below the cap that were deteriorated. They also removed the deteriorating flu down to where it was sound. They then put in new pieces of flu that looked better than the original, re-built several courses of brick and tuck pointed all courses that needed it below that, restoring the chimney. They formed and poured a new 5 - 6 inch thick concrete cap, also much better than the original cap, which had been made of a thin layer of mortar over some plywood. The new cap is much stronger, made of fiber-reinforced concrete. They installed a chimney liner in the flu that serves the furnaces and water heater. In addition to the chimney, our basement furnace-exhaust flu (made of sheet-metal) was also in bad shape, and they replaced/rebuilt that too.
