"It was very good. Everything was fine. They recommended a chimney cap and left me an estimate to do that. Almost all the companies that I have used to clean the chimney have recommended a chimney cap, so they were spot on with that. It took them less than an hour to complete the job. It seems like a reliable company, and I would use them again. The price was average. They were very responsive, and they were very professional."

"These guys cared! through any obstacle that occurred a solution was quickly found to satisfy all!! Clean neat and respectful must be the motto of 5 Star. I highly recommend Jeff and his guy Sean. I had a chimney liner installed in my older home and they took care to leave it better than they found it. Some pointing was done as well at the top of the chimney that needed fix. I now look up with pride once again knowing the guys set me up for the next season change !"

"My wife and I hired Jason approximately two years ago to repoint our chimney and replace some bricks that he assessed as problematic before adding a screen porch onto our house (the chimney runs through the porch). This is not an inexpensive job. We also brought Jason back to add new lead flashing to the chimney when the porch was being built. After the screen porch was added, we noticed several leaks in the porch roof coming from the chimney area. We originally thought the leaks were due to a step-flashing issue. The contractor who built the porch was extremely responsive and assessed the roof and step-flashing and was unable to determine a leak due to a roofing issue. As the screen porch made it easier to access the upper part of the chimney, I went up on the roof and it was evident that Jason missed repointing several joints and despite sealing the chimney we had moss growing out of many joints. We subsequently noticed the roof on the older part of our house was failing and we ended up doing an entire roof replacement. Before the new roof, we had Jason come back out to fix some of the joints he missed. He was extremely difficult to get in touch with. We had to get in touch with him through the contractor who built the screen porch. He promised to come back and seal those joints which he never did. After the new roof, new ice and water, and new step-flashing around the chimney, we still had the leaks. The new roofer ran several hose tests and determined we had a problem with the chimney. After reinspecting, it was obvious that many joints still lacked sufficient mortar repair. We have kept Jason informed throughout the process, but he never returns our e-mails and is completely unresponsive. I spent hours on the roof myself sealing joints, adding mortar, and then resealing the entire chimney. The chimney has not leaked again since my work. Here are Jason’s own written words that he has not honored, “Yes I garuntee (sic) all my work with a ten year warranty. And again the estimate is as if I were approaching my own home so the idea is you don’t need to worry about your chimney again other than cleaning the flues.” In short, we trusted Jason with an expensive job and when we had an issue, he was entirely unresponsive. We even gave Jason an opportunity to respond to this review before posting. He did not respond. We are giving Jason three stars to be fair as we believe he did a relatively good job on the lower portion of our chimney. Moreover, our situation seemed to be a difficult situation to assess. However, our experience is that Jason will not respond if you have an issue, and the upper portion of our chimney was poorly done. Additionally, as the expert, it was Jason’s job to properly assess our chimney. We should not have had to do any of the work ourselves (or paid for additional materials), and Jason should have given the same level of detail to the upper third of our chimney as the lower third. It is worth noting that Jason was very good at communicating when he was bidding the job and throughout the job. If you hire Jason and have a problem with his work, you should likely not expect a response or remedy from him."

"My chimney was not in good condition. The sun was shining through between the bricks, not up to code and no cap in place. Gordy repointed the entire chimney, extended the flue to bring it up to code, installed a cap and swept/cleaned it. Gordy is a very nice guy and did good work for a reasonable price. I would recommend and use his services again."

"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."

Chimney Caps questions, answered by experts

Most residential range hoods have a CFM between 200 and 600. A higher CFM means your range hood is better at removing smoke and odors from your kitchen. The measurement ultimately depends on your stove’s width and heat output as well as the size of your kitchen. 

Compared to the average size of a stove and kitchen, 350 CFM would be the minimum recommended rating for the average kitchen. However, selecting a higher CFM range hood would guarantee better ventilation to match your cooking habits, whether they’re minimal or extensive.

Smooth galvanized metal ducting is best and safest for venting a hood range. It’s best to avoid flexible and corrugated types of ducting, as these options don’t provide ample airflow and may not meet local code. For specific advice on which type of duct might be best for your kitchen, reach out to a range hood installation professional.

Neglected maintenance can lead to odors, fire hazards, impaired airflow, and reduced range and hood operation efficiency.

Yes, they can assess the size, kitchen layout, and ventilation requirements to make recommendations.

Regular cleaning of filters and checking ducting ensures effective operation.
