They were courteous, clean, and proficient, and left things clean. They clearly explained what would be needed to make the fireplace/chimney safe for use and cleaned the fireplace and chimney. I had to contact the main office to get a bid on what the repairs would cost as the technicians could not provide that. A bid was provided via email within a few hours. Still considering whether to go forward with the repairs but appreciate the work and interactions I've had so far with this company.

They recommended a chimney inspection for $69 since just to come out and fix the cap is already a $75 service charge. If it's just a minor issue, their crew will just re-attach the cap on the spot without extra charge. It totally makes sense for me to the do the inspection instead. Scheduled for 12/11 betweeen 10a and 12p. Rob and Al arrived before 12p and they started by inspecting the chimney from the fireplace then climbed to the roof (2-story) to take a look at the chimney cap. It turns out I am losing a screw on the chimney cap. They re-attached it and let me know that everything is okay regarding my chimney (from top to bottom). There are a lot of dust/dirt collected at the fireplace due to draft from the chimney. They spent time on explaining to me that it was due to an opened damper above the fireplace; however, for safety reason the damper was installed in a way that it cannot be closed. In case there is a leak, the gas can escape through the chimney instead of into the house. They also offered to clean the fireplace for me but I think I can just do it myself with a vacuum. Overall, their service is very professional at a very reasonable price as well as with great courtesy. I will definitely use them again in the future.

I knew from past experience that roofers charge an arm and a leg for this so it occurred to me that perhaps a chimney sweep does chimney caps. I lucked out with my first call which was to The S.F. Chimney Sweep. I left a message and got a call back within twenty-four hours from Jeff Friedman. Jeff is very personable and easy to deal with. He came out for a free estimate and while checking that the pipe where the cap goes was in good condition, he noticed that a piece of wood molding was missing from the wood surround that encases the chimney. He told me it needed to be replaced because I could get bees in there or birds too could nest in there. I asked if he could replace it but alas he couldn't because he doesn't do woodwork. But after thinking about it, he said he could use metal flashing instead of wood, if I didn't mind it not being wood. That was fine by me, one less contractor to call. I asked about the chimney cap and what it would look like. He answered my question and added that I could get a stainless steel cap that would not rust but it would cost more. It was only $30 more so I went with the stainless steel model which had to be special ordered. Because of the special order, it took a couple of weeks before installation but the wait was worth it to me. The cap looks great and the flashing strip should keep the birds and the bees away. I think the pricing was very reasonable. It was $190 well spent. I highly recommend Jeff."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/ca/san-francisco/sf-chimney-sweep-reviews-337353.htm"},"position":7},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Chimney Clean Company","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"CA","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Susan S."},"reviewBody":"Services performed as outlined above -- chimney cleaning, a new chimney cap and ash removal cover replaced at my request.

"Rep does not respond to calls, texts, emails. Paid $17,000 upfront after 17 months the required engineers drawing submitted and permit obtained. Concrete footer for screen extension poured (at more than twice estimate). Two fence posts were also replaced. 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."

FAQs for chimney inspection projects in Dublin, CA
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 cost to install a fireplace is $2,440 on average. This cost can range from $150 to $8,000 or more, depending on the type of fireplace, the materials used, and the size.
Electric fireplaces cost around $1,000 to install, and mostly only require wiring installation. Installing a wood fireplace from scratch could cost upwards of $10,000, depending on the foundation needed to support the weight of the fireplace. In addition, gas fireplaces can cost between $2,500 and $10,000.
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.
The cost to remodel your fireplace is $1,200 on average. This cost can range from $400 to $2,000, depending on the extent of work needed.
If you add a hearth to your fireplace, you can expect to pay between $3 and $200per square foot. However, if you're refacing your fireplace, the price tag will depend on your chosen materials. If choosing tile, you can pay between $1 and $50per square foot, depending on the design. Stone is a more expensive material, averaging between $60 and $70 per square foot.
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.
