Poorly. You feel held hostage because there are very few companies that do this. They up charge you for items not needed and tell you that it is due to code. I dealt with Chris who always tries to add needless charges. The installation was not professional; I had to stand over he installers and help them reference the manual. I paid a lot for installation and literally could have done a better job myself. I was concerned about the pipe assembly going into the wall. I was told it was fine. Turns out I was right. Apparently when the plume was cleaned the next year a note was made that it was not done correctly and it needed to be fixed under warranty. I wasn’t told that but it was apparently relayed to the office. They never called me. We had some smoke seeping out from the pipe and we called. I was told that they won’t come out unless they do a service and cleaning ($400 charge). The soonest they could come out was A MONTH LATER. When they came out, the guys notes the improper assembly and asked me why I hadn’t scheduled the warranty repairs. I told them that it was the first I had heard of it. They were surprised that we hadn’t been contacted. I paid for a service I didn’t need and was supposed to be contacted to schedule the repair. Still hasn’t happened. It’s been cold and for 6 weeks the only thing I have gotten from my stove is a $400 charge for an unnecessary service call and the stove still doesn’t work. This company steals money. Don’t use them.

I contacted this company because they were referred to me by my HVAC contractor and I had used them on a previous job. They were responsive to the request for services on Angie's list and we set up the appointment. The crew showed up on time, were polite and professional and performed the work quickly. They cleaned up after themselves. They suggested some additional work such as replacement of the duct in the bathroom that appeared to have some mold growing in it, and provided a quote but they did not do a 'hard sell' which I appreciated. They reduced the price of the duct cleaning because my system was brand new and I did not need cleaning of the coil or blower, and they also had a $50-off special at the time I scheduled services. I would hire them again.

The workers arrived right on time, performed the work, then explained to me the findings. The price was a little high compared to other companies but they did give me two coupons (including the angies list coupon) to apply, which brought the price down. They put down floor protection, cleaned up after they were done, and left no mess at all. They even gave me a free estimate on replacing my gas logs. I would recommend and am likely to have them replace the log set in the future.

Hired Mad Hatter to install a set of fire logs. The folks in the showroom were very helpful and James the service technician who did the install was great. They had inspected and cleaned the chimney when I first bought my house in 2015, so I got a break on the installation price. Will definitely use them for duct and dryer vent cleaning in the near future!

GREAT! They were fast and suggested the right products for the fireplace out of the gate. They even modified my old mantel and reused the top part after the stone covered the existing wall.

Honesty and Professionalism. Contracted Mad Hatter to complete duct cleaning and dryer vent cleaning. Zak and Harvey arrived as scheduled. Very professional, they introduced themselves and put on protective foot covers before entering the residence. After an initial inspection of my ducts, Zak asked was prompted me to have the vents cleaned. I had just purchased the home and assumed the ducts would need cleaning. Zak provided photos he took during the initial inspection showing a clean system- it’s good to see a contractor that’s HONEST. The dryer vent was another matter, dirty and was thoroughly cleaned. In lieu of cleaning, I had the ducts sanitized. Thank you Mad Hatter for true PROFESSIONALISM.

Matt and Andrew were prompt and very professional. They carefully moved furniture, covered rugs, protected flooring, wore booties inside the house, and then put everything back when they were done.
Of the 6 fireplaces in the house, 3 had pilot lights with gas log sets, 1 had a gas log set and the other 2 were wood-burners with a gas starter. On the pilot light sets, they removed and cleaned the glass doors, removed and cleaned the logs, vacuumed out dust, checked fittings and valves for leaks, checked the switches and explained to me how everything worked, including how to re-ignite the pilot, turn everything off and on, etc. I had asked about a potential leak at a switch for one of the pilot-operated fireplaces, and Matt checked the chimney at the roof and made recommendations for follow-up with the roofer for a potential minor flashing issue.
The main gas log set in the family room was inspected and cleaned as well; they removed the logs and the old, crappy looking "ember" material and replaced with updated materials. Prior to their visit, it looked like a fake log fireplace with "insulation"...now it appears more like real logs, with more realistic looking embers that don't look like R 19 fell from the chimney and landed on the logs. Very pleased with how that one turned out; exceeded expectations.
The basement wood-burners were also inspected; the previous owner told us he used one of the fireplaces "every day"...well, he clearly never had it cleaned. EVER. After getting huge piles of creosote out of the flue, Matt recommended a follow-up chemical cleaning as the video inspection still showed caked on creosote in the flue. He also advised not to burn wood in that fireplace until further cleaning could be done due to the potential fire hazard. I had a feeling that fireplace was going to be bad (based on other lack-of-routine-maintenance things we discovered after purchasing the home), but not that bad.
As other reviewers had mentioned, the cost of these services is not inexpensive. However, it was well worth the price to learn the proper operation of all fireplaces in the house (since they are gas appliances), as well as gaining the peace of mind that comes with knowing they are in good working order. Highly recommend.
