We live in the Joshua Tree area and had a Kohler generator installed in 2021. Unfortunately, by 2025, it had failed. A local electrical contractor inspected it but couldn’t repair the issue, so we turned to the expert—Pete Poillon. I’m incredibly glad we did. Pete promptly diagnosed the...
Poillon ElectricThis local company exceeded my expectations as they have in the past (when they provided annual maintenance for my HVAC unit). Yesterday, I needed ducting installed to vent my dryer outside the crawlspace, where had been installed by the previous homeowners. Central Air sent two friendly,...
Central Air Conditioning SvcMy heater failed during a very long cold spell. They were very busy but managed to arrange to the install. A two day job was completed in just one day. Extremely happy with price, installation and workmanship. They were best of 4 quotes and no extra charges.
Efficient, professional and speedy installation. Todd has a facility for explaining what he intends to do regarding the job (and why) in layman's terms. No jargon. In my opinion a very good businessman and an indispensable vendor when you have electrical issues.
Hill Electric IncEverything was installed and is functioning well. They did a good job and would use them again.
ADI ElectricalFrom the moment we first met Ron till the guys who did the installation left, the whole process couldn't have gone more seamlessly. We called Westside after our original contractor botched the second floor furnace installation by putting in a useless 60% furnace when it was supposed to be a...
Westside Heating & Air ConditioningExcellent service, Rick and his wife were wonderful to work with, very informative and being an Angie's list customer, was a PLUS. Rick had a cancellation and his wife was able to change our appointment to an earlier date. Rick was very neat and clean and repaired a part of our...
I recently contacted Garage and Closet Kingdom regarding an installation question, I was very pleased with their immediate response time. I would most defiantly contact Garage and Closet Kingdom in the future for my garage and closet needs. I appreciated their professionalism.
Very disappointing service. I ordered the door and signed the contract on 5/20/11. They misplaced the order. I had to call again and they had not ordered the door. The first door was installed on 7/15 but the door was too short and they offered to install a piece of wood at the top to make...

Now told screen and roof price increased $13.000 over orig estimate and rep will not explain what the differences were to justify additional cost. He keeps saying I asked for an upgrade, I did not. After getting him on the phone a couple weeks ago, he asked if he could call me back then no call back. After two weeks, I fired him today and now he wants to charge me for work he billed me for that was not done. His name is Peter Evins. I contacted his superior with North Star at their main office months ago when I could not get a response from Peter. He became upset that I was contacting him although I told him Peter was not answering my communications and for what I had paid out I was anxious about this deal. He basically told me never to contact him again to keep contacting Peter."

While it’s possible to sweep your own chimney, it’s usually not a good idea for two reasons. First, inexperienced DIYers are more likely to miss areas of the chimney, which still leaves the risk of house fire due to the remaining residue. Second, chimney sweeping seems like a simple process, but it’s highly dangerous. Soot and creosote are both carcinogenic and can cause breathing issues and lung damage. If you don’t take the same safety precautions that professionals do, you could be putting yourself at risk of serious bodily harm.
Some of the most common chimney problems include:
Creosote buildup
Chimney blockage
Deteriorating brickwork or stonework
Cracked chimney top
Damaged flashing
Flue liner damage or deterioration
Damaged chimney cap
If you suspect you have a chimney problem, contact a masonry contractor for an inspection.
The average cost for a professional chimney cleaning is around $250, but prices range from $130 to $400 or more, depending on a few factors. Some things that have an impact on your total include the size of your chimney, the number of chimneys cleaned, and how accessible the chimneys are.
The National Fire Prevention Agency (NFPA) recommends chimney sweeping once per year as a means of avoiding house fires and massive property damage. Over time, creosote and soot build up in your chimney from burning wood and a lack of ventilation. These compounds are both highly flammable, which means a build-up of them inside your chimney puts you at an increased risk of house fire. Chimney sweeping removes any residue and helps reduce the risk of property damage and personal injury from fire.
On average, chimney repairs cost about $455. However, because of the vast range of potential repairs needed, the cost to repair a chimney ranges widely from $160 to $15,000, depending on the type and extent of repairs required.
From average costs to expert advice, get all the answers you need to get your job done.
Chimney sweep costs can be dramatically affected by the type of chimney, its location, and how dirty it is.
The average cost to repair or replace a chimney crown depends on the damage, material, and any other chimney maintenance services bundled into your project.
Chimney liners are important for fire safety and energy efficiency in your home. Learn how much chimney liners cost based on type, size, material, and other factors.
Here’s a closer look at the key differences between tuckpointing vs. repointing so you can decide which masonry repair technique is right for you.
