Recent Chimney Cap Repair Reviews in San Francisco
- S.C. Home Repair5 Star review . Excellent work , continuing to hire Josh Matus of SC Home Repair and recommending to my neighbors, family and friends. Josh is professional, reliable , trustworthy , kind, and an expert in a wide variety of home repairs . I have been using SC Home Repair for many years with a wide variety of large and small repair jobs and have been very satisfied and happy with the work Josh has done for me
- Metro Chimney & MasonrySmooth. Joe made a real effort to beat the cold weather. The quality was good and the crew cleaned up!
- Star Tuckpointing IncWe worked with two different tuck pointers last summer. Our experience could not be more different. We first contacted the tuck pointers due to moisture seeping thru the front parapet wall and draining into window frames. Since the repair by Star Tuckpointing, it is dry. Additional work was done on the side parapets and general tuckpointing and bricks replaced as needed. Star was very responsive, answered all of my questions completely and even drew sketches to help me understand the moisture problem. I found them very honest and even volunteered ways that would save money such as terminating one of a 3 chimney grouping since it wasn't functioning or needed. They were on time and worked the full day weather permitting and cleaned up well. They stayed on the job until it was completed. I would definitely call them first if I need tuckpointing services again. Call them early in the year, they book up quick
- Murphy's Fireplace & Stoves IncPaul came out and met us to see what the project entailed. He then provided us with a very reasonable quote. The office staff worked with us to help pick our choices (they have many fireplaces). After everything was ordered, they set up the installation. The technicians arrived at exactly the time they said they would. Paul accompanied them and they started the job on time. They were very respectful of our home, and they kept us updated with pictures and texts. They were finished on time, and left the place very clean. We highly recommend them and should we have another need for gas piping, chimney maintenance, or similar, they will be the only number we call! Jim and Sand
- Mike's Mobile Screen & Chimney ServiceChimney sweep. They didn't have any times available for 2 weeks, but fit me in early morning before another local service call next day. Fast and efficient.
- Critter Control IncExcellent, he was professional, calming and very efficient. I was given a complete understanding of the situation and he walked me through the process step by step.
- Art Karos, LLC - DBA Art's Chimney & StoneworkArt's crew did a great job, worked quickly and efficiently, and cleaned up the area completely after project was finished. High quality work done right.
- Chimney & Wildlife SpecialistsHe was honest and didn't charge me for services I didn't need. He recommended stores where I could buy updated chimney inserts and offered to pick up the products to install.
- Mr. Roofing IncOverall the contractors are very friendly. The project manager addressed all concerned issues as best he could. The roof looks better than it was or even better. I hope with the recent sunny weather, the seals can have a stronger cure. Thank you for securing the roof at the end of each day to make sure all seams are weatherproof. & Thank you for allowing multiple visits to check on the project’s progress and providing a walkthrough of the daily itinerary. The price was a little high but reasonable for the quality, customer service, jobs needed to be done, company’s insurances/liability and so much more. The bonus courtesy patch was a definite life saver during the rainy season. I’ll definitely refer my friends and family for any future work
- Mr. Roofing IncFrom beginning to end, we had nothing but a smooth engagement with Mr. Roofing. The Consultant was not selling, rather, presented options - which we really appreciated. From there: the scheduler was very responsive and proactive. Finally, Jose and his crew of 5 men did a fantastic job of replacing our roof. Prompt, fast, clean, respectful of our wishes. What a great experience. Was it the lowest price? Probably not. But you also get what you pay for
