- Addy R.
Two guys came to the house, inspected the attic, mumbled at each other and told me the fix would require their boss to come out and evaluate, then quote. No one ever came out to finish the inspection.
- Anatoli K.
It took 7 visits and 1 inspection and they tried to replace a wall for inside my air compressor
- Chris M.
Quick service and scheduling. Was willing to price match competitor for comparable service. Wanted the price match as the inspector was much more thorough and detailed in his inspection than the other company.

"I had a very positive experience. Nasir was professional but friendly and even my protective dog settled down quickly which I always consider a good sign. Nasir explained each step of the way and let me know when he’d be up on the roof and inside to clean out the stove ( this was a chimney cleaning job ) . I felt it was an extremely fair price for an overdue and dirty job and left everything spotless. Even gave me tips on cleaning the glass door of the wood stove. I will definitely be using their services again and would highly recommend. "

FAQs for chimney inspection projects in San Jose, 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.

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.

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.
The San Jose, CA homeowners’ guide to chimney inspection services
From average costs to expert advice, get all the answers you need to get your job done.
Before installing a gas fireplace insert, it’s important to understand the various cost factors. Here’s how much an average gas fireplace insert costs.
Your chimney inspection cost will vary based on the type of inspection, how accessible the chimney is, the chimney size, and the number of flues.
Chimney sweep costs can be dramatically affected by the type of chimney, its location, and how dirty it is.
