Learned a lot about water invasion of chimneys. Am glad the birds can not get into the chimney because of the screen that was installed. Also glad the cracks and holes in the mortar were filled with silicone.

"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."
