Brick or Stone Fireplace (Gas) - Repair
It is unfortunate that the work was not done properly and they are obviously not able to repair what was done wrong. I needed new caps put on two chimneys, but because they claim they cannot get the proper caps they simply did their best to cover the chimney so it does not leak. This was done so badly that I have no confidence in moving forward with this company.

The installers are nice and very easy to understand. They took one look at the crack in my fireplace and knew what needed to be done to fix it. They even had the part on the truck so they fixed it very quickly and professionally..

They inspected my chimney and replaced the cap and did some repairs. What I liked was that they took photos of what needed repairing and photos of the process. They were fast and professional.

Prompt service and reasonably priced. Would have liked to see the void filler concealed/blended and mineral staining removed as part of the project. I still have visible signs of the prior chimney condition.

Hard to judge what a repair like this should have cost without a way to validate the price was fair. The repair was very expensive but the guys did a great job. I guess you get what you pay for.
