"Anthony from Top Hat was very knowledgeable and easy to work with. He communicated clearly before arrival, and then did a thorough inspection of all our chimney issues and was able to diagnose our problem and fix it the same day. 5 stars for the work done. This was only done recently, so I don't know if the fix will be a long term solution, but Top Hat ensured us they stand behind their work so they would come back to make corrections in the off chance the problem isn't solved."

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Defender Chimney, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the initial inspection to the completed work, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and punctual. They took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all of my questions, and made sure I understood the process before getting started. The quality of their work was outstanding, and they left the area spotless when they were finished. It’s refreshing to find a company that truly values customer service and takes pride in their craftsmanship. If you’re looking for reliable, honest, and skilled chimney professionals, I highly recommend Defender Chimney. I’ll definitely be using them again for future maintenance and inspections."

"Rob did an outstanding job repairing our chimney, with significant work required both inside and out. His prices were highly competitive, he was excellent in communicating with us given the many weather challenges earlier this season. Rob provided additional advise and guidance to help maintain our chimney moving forward as we are newer homeowners. Clean-up was amazing! Highly recommend Rob and his team, will use again without hesitation, especially with such great service from a local business!"

"Good work, honest dealers, fair price. I had a weirdly hard time even getting an estimate for a chimney cleaning. Some places want you to schedule the cleaning, after which they will perform an inspection and tell you what else needs to be done. Another place told me I needed another $2000 of repairs that I'm pretty sure are unnecessary. Gem came out quickly for an estimate for the cleaning and identified the limited crack repair, new caps, and waterproofing that would keep my chimney cap protected. Gem's technician Grace was great to deal with on the day of the work."

"Mario did a detailed inspection and quote. I had three companies bid out the job and he was the only one concerned with the condition of my chimney liner. Turns out the chimney liner was full of holes, potentially a safety issue. If I had hired the other companies that would not have been addressed. Quality of the work was great, always showed up on time and left the job site clean. Main office staff was friendly and easy to get ahold of. If there were any changes they always communicated it ahead of time. The new grout blended in perfectly, chimneys look much better. I also appreciated they offered crown coat, my crowns were in bad shape and look much nicer after using crown coat. They even fixed up some stuff on my brick lamp post."

"I needed my chimney rebuilt from the roof line up. I picked a brick that was not available so they chose for me and it was a perfect match to my roof and siding. The team was very polite and they cleaned up everything very nicely. Would recommend them to family & friends."

Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

Hail damage on a roof varies depending on the roofing material. On asphalt shingles, it can appear as dark or white chalky circles where granules have been knocked off, or as cracks, dents, or bruises. For wood shingles, hail may cause the wood to split and crack. On metal roofs, hail damage is often easier to spot and looks like dings and dents. The age and condition of your roof can also affect the appearance of the damage. Regardless of what you see, it's recommended to have a professional inspect your roof after a major storm to fully assess the extent of the damage.

If you don’t see obvious signs of roof leaks, like water spots on the ceilings inside or visible damage to the roof membrane, the best way to check for leaks is to have a professional complete a heat scan of your roof. This will identify areas where water has penetrated the membrane and is keeping the roof cooler in certain areas.

Shingle damage comes in many forms, and the damage usually depends on the wind speed and the shape of the roof before the winds. Typically, when shingles are damaged by wind, they become torn, creased, or detached from the roof. Some might go missing entirely. More extensive roof damage might occur if a tree branch or other debris has fallen onto the roof as a result of the windstorm.

The ridge is the horizontal line where two sloping roof sections meet at the top, forming the highest point of the roof. A hip, on the other hand, is the external angle formed where two roof sections meet and slope downward toward the walls, typically at a lower angle than the ridge. The ridge runs horizontally along the peak and the hip runs diagonally from the peak to the roof's edges.

A chimney cap typically lasts between three and 25 years. This wide range is due to several variables, including the material it's made from, the local climate, and how frequently you use your fireplace. Living in an area with severe weather can shorten its lifespan. Regular inspections, maintenance, and minor repairs as needed can help your chimney cap last as long as possible.
