Recent Chimney Cap Repair Reviews in Seattle
- Chinook ServicesChinook Services were a pleasure to work with! From the office staff to the team that did the work. Polite, professional, on time and they were very careful and respectful while performing the service. I would definitely hire them again. Thank you!
- Emerald City Chimney IncI had a wonderful experience working with Emerald City Chimney from beginning to end. No one wants to spend money on things like chimney repair, but I would hire this team again in a heartbeat if I needed masonry repair of any kind. They were professional, on-time, on-budget, and a pleasure to work with. A homeowner can't ask for anything more
- Johnson and Sons ConstructionVic and his crew were amazing. He has high quality subcontractors and he is amazing at getting everything lined up. We’re very impressed by the attention to detail and are madly in love with our new kitchen.
- Oasis Roofing & ConstructionWe got 4 estimates for our roofing job. All four companies were highly reputable and had excellent reviews on Angies List. We would have been happy to have used any of the companies but in the end we chose Oasis based on the competitiveness of their pricing for everything that needed replacing, the fact that they could do it all and we would not have to deal with multiple contractors, and the excellent attention to detail and complete honesty of the estimator (Jordan) who was also our project manager. The job was completed in a very timely manner, all questions and emails were answered promptly and we were kept up to speed on everything that was happening. We were able to have the sheathing delivered early so we could paint it before it went up. That was a great courtesy afforded to us and certainly saved us a lot of time and effort if we had had to paint it once it was up on the roof. We chose the Landmark TL in Black Walnut and are very happy with the look of the new roof. Few small criticisms we would have: There was damage to our leaf guard gutters from the ladders and power cords being dragged across them. Paint missing and a few dents. From what we understand this is common and it is mentioned in the contract that there may be damage done to guttering. More an aesthetic annoyance than anything, to have a new roof and damaged gutters. In the end we had to repaint the gutters. DO NOT rely on the clean up crew to pick up the nails. We did our own sweep and picked up well over 100 nails on and around our driveway. All in all we arey satisfied with our experience with Oasis and would use them again if we need any other work done
- Oasis Roofing & ConstructionThe quality of work was excellent. After it was completed the only call back was one of the chimney caps came loose and tipped over during the wind storm. They quickly came out and repaired. The job was complex and it was performed completely to my satisfaction. The interior drywall work was done by Francisco. He is an artist. If you need sheetrock work done, call for Francisco as he is the best I have ever seen. Reid is a master carpenter and his interior trim work was the best. He did all the inside and outside carpentry work and did a great job. The painter Marco also did superb work. All the people did excellent and quality work. The roofing crew were top-notch and the gutter installers were the best. There were some delays in the project that had to do with Oasis scheduling which should not be my problem. These delays were not due to a window that needed to be re-ordered. I felt my interior work should have been worked on and completed right after the new windows were installed (except the re-ordered window). I waited over 2 1/2 weeks to get my interior completed and the new hardware on my doors. They used the old hardware on the new doors temporarily during that time. That was not acceptable and was expressed so. Overall, I am very satisfied with the work. I have heard many nightmare stories from folks who did major remodels and I did not have one with Oasis - albeit the delays. I would recommend them, but spell out the timing and scheduling details to prevent delays not due to supply vendors
- Oasis Roofing & ConstructionDelayed due to custom skylight! UGH! not thier fault, as we went back and forth on the final design! Saw other comments about how smoothly things went and id have to report the same.
- Oasis Roofing & ConstructionOne of the best experiences I can remember. The estimator (who also manages actual jobs, which is rare as usually the "sales" person is lacking functional expertise.. But not in this case. This guy REALLY knew his stuff, and had a wonderful amount of information so as to really put a DIYer and long time handyman like myself at ease Confident than he knew more than I did. In truth, not just bluster. He really knew his stuff.) Unfortunately they were booked solid for the time frame I needed them. But I would feel confident letting them work on my house. And that is a rare thing. These guys might not give you the "Low-ball" bid to undercut the competition, but the price they give is fair for an excellent job, done right without the hidden expenses that always "pop up" with low ballers. I will likely call these guys the next time I have some work to do. I will just make sure there is plenty of time in advance of the need
- Oasis Roofing & ConstructionHad Oasis (Jordan) out to the house to estimate roof vents, dormer and roof replacement. We ended up going a different route but if I did any remodel or significant roof work Oasis (and Jordan) would be my first phone call.
- Oasis Roofing & ConstructionI received 3 bids on my project and Oasis was actually the high bid but I selected them because they stood out in terms of their knowledge, experience and service. Living in Seattle and working in the commercial real estate industry I know that roofs and roof penetrations are not where to try and skimp. I was very happy with Oasis' recommendations and work. Their level of attention never wavered even after the contract was signed, which really stood out. My roof looks great and I am very confident in their installation
- Oasis Roofing & ConstructionThe project went great. Jordan is a great project manager and was so helpful in the process. He made sure everything went according to plan and his crews are professional. They kept the work area clean and did a thorough clean up after to get nails. I really appreciated the personal service. I feel Jordan went above and beyond for us and I will recommend them every time
