"We had a wonderful experience working with Anthony at A-1 Safety Chimney Service, Inc. Anthony came out to do an initial inspection and was extremely thorough. He spent time explaining the issues to my husband and I, showing us photos he'd taken and answering all of our questions. When Anthony came out to do the repair work, he was efficient and once again took time to discuss the work he had done with us in detail. We were able to build a fire in the fireplace that same night! I would highly recommend Anthony and A-1 to anyone in need of chimney repairs."

"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."

"We were very satisfied with our service from Rob and Fire It Up at the end of September. After buying our first house, we wanted to make sure everything in the chimney was safe and working efficiently. Rob's inspection and estimate were very thorough and detailed. He clearly knows his stuff and didn't pressure us to schedule repairs right away. Mario and team did a full crown coat, put in two liners, and poured insulation. They also replaced duct from the furnace that wasn't venting outside fully. Everyone seemed very knowledgeable. The manager, Toni, stopped by so we could settle up, and she's a sweetheart. Great customer service all around."

"Anthony and his partner inspected and cleaned our chimney. They were thorough, professional, and even advised us of exterior parts of the chimney that were potential cause for concern: the chimney caps, and flashing seal were in need of replacement and repair. If you need chimney work done, call Top Hat Chimney Service to get the help you need. Thank you!!"

"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 FAQs, answered by experts

Homeowners insurance does not usually cover roof soft spot repair. Since this damage is usually caused by wear and tear and often found on aging roofs, your insurance claim will likely be rejected. If a soft spot develops due to damage from a storm, repairs may be covered, but in general, expect to pay out of pocket for soft spot repairs.

A tarp can temporarily stop a roof leak, but how long the solution works heavily depends on the placement and size of the leak. While a tarp can be a temporary solution, it’s crucial to have a professional inspect and repair the leak as soon as possible to implement a permanent fix.

The amount of hail damage that warrants a roof replacement depends on the size of the hail. In many cases, a roof replacement is needed if your roof gets hail that is 1 inch or larger in diameter. You may also need to replace a roof due to hail damage if you notice several dents in the shingles or there are seven to 10 hail impact marks within a 10x10 foot area on your roof.

Individual soft spots can often be repaired if they’re caught early enough and the damage isn’t extensive. If soft spots cover a large portion of the roof or the roof sheathing is in poor condition, you’ll probably need to replace your roof to preserve its structural integrity.

EPDM roofs have a few common problems, most of which can be resolved with regular maintenance. This type of roofing is laid down in sheets with seams, which can be a starting point for leaks. Proper installation and roof sealing can often avoid seam issues. 

The material is also susceptible to tears and punctures from falling branches or other sharp objects. There are black and white versions of EPDM, and the black version is more prone to fade and succumb to UV damage. Regular roof inspections can protect the costs of rubber roof installation and extend the life of your roof.
