"The process started with Danielle and it was a pleasure working with her to schedule the initial estimate. She also followed up during the process to notify me when the service was going to be provided. I met with Kris for the initial estimate and he suggested ways that my chimney repair could be completed to save me money. The scheduled the repairs promptly and showed up when they said they would. Kris did the actual repair and did an outstanding job. He then followed up after the first rain event to make sure everything was satisfactory. I would definitely use First State again, and I highly recommend them for chimney repair projects."

"The Company Supervisor on site and the three trainees were very cordial, professional, and courteous at all times. The cleaning of the chimney and inspection was completed. I am the original owner of the house built in 11/1990. I explained to the techs that we never used the chimney until 2017 after i had retired, and we only used the fireplace 18-20 times since 2020. I admit they give very nice and detailed pics, but the pricing is outrageous. The company wants to rehab the entire chimney placing a liner inside the chimney, and changing the wood base below the brick foundation and the crown wash and replacing the top chimney cap which is only (4) years old. The chimney has been cleaned by a professional prior at least twice since 2018. The contractor wants well over $14,900 for the interior and work and $3280.00 for the exterior work. I only paid $5500.00 to have the brick fireplace built with the house in 1990. This is entirely too much money."

"The service was fine. The only thing is that they were really late coming. So, it was like dark when they got out of here. They left the area good when they were finished. It took them an hour-and-a-half to complete the job. They sent me a picture of the chimney. The price was great. They did show up."

"They did a great job. They solved all the problems I had with the chimney and it’s been working perfectly ever since. They also fixed a problem on the roof around the chimney; they replaced the wood around the chimney with a material that would never rot, so they fixed it even better than it was before. It took them a couple of days to do the work. They took care of all the cleanup as well. We've been real happy with them."

"Hamilton was very professional from the first phone call to schedule the estimate to completing the work. The roof replacement was reasonably priced and completed in a timely manner. The workers did a great job and cleaned up the space in which they worked. I will use again for other services and recommend to others."

Chimney Repair questions, answered by experts

Fixing a drawer that is sticky, askew, or broken depends on the specific problem. Start by removing the drawer and examining the slides and tracks for any damage, bent parts, or loose hardware.

For minor issues:

  • Clean and Lubricate: If the slides are just sticky, clean them and the corresponding tracks with a hot, damp cloth. Then, apply a lubricant like silicone spray or bar soap to help them glide smoothly. Also, check any roller wheels for problems.

  • Tighten Screws: Tighten any loose screws on the slides and tracks. If screw holes are stripped, you may need to fill them and re-drill.

For more significant damage:

  • Bent Hardware: If a slide is bent, you may be able to remove it, straighten it out, and reinstall it.

  • Broken Parts: If a slide or track is broken or severely damaged, it will need to be replaced. Unscrew the damaged part and install a replacement that matches the type and size of the original.

After performing the repair, reinsert the drawer and test it to ensure it opens and closes smoothly, making any final adjustments for proper alignment. It can also be helpful to consult the manufacturer's guidelines for your specific drawer system.

Yes, there are several wood filler products on the market that look like wood. Your best bet is to take a cabinet door to your local hardware store to match the appropriate wood filler to your door. Some brands make filler that is masked to look like wood and can also be sanded, cut, stained, and painted. 

Replacing exact duplicates of existing drawer slides is usually a simple task that requires replacing the old one with new pieces in the same location and configuration. Replacing old slides with new models is also relatively easy with patience. However, changing entire cabinet layouts can get tricky and requires some know-how to complete the task. 

It’s not recommended that you get rid of your mattress if you’re experiencing a bed bug infestation. This action could cause the infestation to spread to other people and homes. Instead of replacing your mattress, you should take steps to eliminate the bed bugs from the mattress and then focus on preventing further infestations.

Regularly check and tighten screws, avoid excessive weight, and clean surfaces with appropriate materials to prevent damage.
