"Excellent; and from what I've been able to ascertain, their prices were competitive. Based on excellent service, fair prices and generally good reviews, I suggest you need not shop any further. I highly recommend this company, as well as the technician, Brian, who was efficient, courteous, neat, and professional. (An aside - if you have a piano, ask Brian to play a few minutes for you - he is quite good.) Interestingly, the chimney was swept from the top, up on the roof. Also, although I had expected at least some small amount of soot to get into the house, absolutely none did. Oh, a comment on costs. The initial chimney sweep and inspection was $139.00, as indicated below. The repair work came to $550.00."
Black stains shows evidence of hazardous cracks in firebox. Top 6” and lintel bar removed from fireplace. Not ever a good idea. Potentially making fireplace unsafe to use.

"Jose was prompt, courteous and professional. His knowledge of prefab fireplaces is extensive and he even found a flaw in the original installation and repaired it. I would recommend him to anyone needing repairs. I would also rate his work with 5 stars, which this review wouldn’t let me do."

"Rich was on time and very informative. I was already doing some other home repairs and he worked around us. He cleaned and inspected our chimney. It looked great when he was done. He told me of some ways to keep the fireplace from allowing smoke to enter the house. He could see I was a DIYer and told me how to fix that on my own. I highly recommend him.

"Gary was  prompt and professional for each appointment.  On the initial appointment, he patiently answered all my questions, provided a good selection of products to choose from, and gave a quote for services.  The day of service, Gary prepped & painted the inside of the fireplace as well as all hardware on the doors.  For the finishing touches, he installed a new burner and fire glass.  When he left the area was clean and ready to be enjoyed.  My boring, outdated gas fireplace is now updated, and looks great!!!  I'd hire Gary again.

"not that great. basically paid $99 to get an estimate. included cleaning roof and minimal repairs. took a while to get appointment, and then when they came, they didn't even do the work! gave a really big estimate and then re-seheduled to have someone else do the work. they wouldn't totally replace the roof, gave different estimates to repair, I went with a different company to do a full roof rplacement."

"I got their number from a family member that used them for their kitchen and some remodeling in their house. I
Called and spoke to a nice lady which helped me to understand what am I going to get, how the process works etc....
this was with a very short details.
After I scheduled my appointment in my house, Zohar came and set with me in my house and explained to me almost everything i need to know before i get into this project.
The process was divided to several parts:
1. move everything from my kitchen
2. Remove old appliances
3, Demolish the old kitchen
4. do all the electrical that i needed to the new kitchen
5. do some minor plumbing
6. do all the plaster work including the installation of a new drywall
7. install all the cabinets
8. install the new cabinets
9. clean
and finally install new appliances :)
all came out good and nice. There were some small issues like scratch on the wood floor (which was taken care of with no problem at all by zohar and his team.
So basically, I'm pleased with the end results!
I do recommend Zohar to any one!!! Good job and thank you so much guys."

"Joe Kincaid is a great contractor.  I first met Joe back in Fall of 2014 when I was looking at contractors to do a remodel of a home that I had just purchased.  The home was built in 1959 and many parts of it were original.  I wanted to upgrade the electrical box and grounding as well as replace a few of the lights.  There were a some other items I was pricing out with him, such as a small roof repair and a small bathroom remodel.  

It was on a Sunday morning, when Joe called me around 8:00 AM that my simple remodel changed completely.  We were about a week into the project.  Fortunately, Joe stopped by the house that morning early to check up on the work progress.  When he arrived, he found that my cold water line had burst under the house overnight.  The entire house was under several inches of water.  Joe was instrumental in helping me get the repairs started by first contacting a flood/mold remediation company to dry out the house.  

In the end, I had to do a complete home remodel.  Every room was affected.  Including what we were originally planning on renovating, Joe replaced the flooring (tile and wood laminate), baseboards, drywall, painting, electrical plugs, breaker box, roofing repairs, new shower tiling in the master and new shower/tub in the 2nd bathroom, new vanities in both bathrooms, new cabinets and counters in the kitchen and much more.  Joe got the work done on time and on budget.  If I could change anything, I would have used Joe for the copper re-pipe I had to do inside the house after the flood.  Even then, Joe noticed and helped take care of issues that the plumber left unfinished.  Joe became my eyes and ears during the project.  His communication was great!

Earlier this year, I had another water line problem at the house.  This time the water main line was leaking underground between the street and my house.  My first call was to Joe.  He stopped by that day and called me with his recommendations.  We decided to replace an area of the copper pipe that was leaking.  Hopefully this will be the solution as the rest of the pipe looked OK.  It was certainly a lot less expensive than replacing the whole line. Joe was thorough and did a great job both times I have used him.  I like how he is willing to give options to meet my budget and best of all, I trust what he says."

Chimney Repair FAQs, answered by experts

A drawer falling out of place usually indicates there’s too much in it, so the best place to start is by emptying it of any non-essential items to check whether it was simply a weight issue. If that’s not the case, check whether the front panel or hardware is damaged, and replace parts as necessary. You may need to replace the drawer or the drawer slides if the issue persists.

Cupping and bowing are both types of wood warping, but they affect the board in different ways. Cupping happens when the edges of a board curl upward or downward, creating a concave or convex shape across its width. Conversely, bowing is when the board curves along its length, forming a gentle arc. 

Wood furniture is usually vulnerable to water damage. However, larger furniture tends to have a high chance of being salvaged as long as it hasn’t been standing in water for more than 24 hours. You can restore bedpoles, table and couch legs, and other wood parts that haven’t been fully saturated. Meanwhile, smaller objects like decors or furniture with fabric wrapping may require full replacement.

Wood filler can be used to repair minor scratches, dents, and damages on wood veneer. Simply scrape the wood filler over the chipped or scratched area. Make sure to leave a little bit more than you need so you can sand it down for a smoother finish. Repaint or restrain the surface to ensure a consistent color.

Yes, vinegar can break down the adhesive bond, effectively dissolving the glue from wood. It will be much easier to wipe away. Vinegar’s acidity, which helps to make it an effective all-purpose cleaner, can also aid in removing adhesive with less chance of damaging the wood and finish than more aggressive solvents.
