"A. R. Bowen was the only contractor willing to take on the difficult task of replacing the chimney pipe in my condo - a first floor condo with pipe that went 45 feet up. Two other contractors strung me on. I found A.R. Bowen on Home Advisor. Unlike the other contractors, George was very responsive, answered all my questions and concerns promptly, and repaired the chimney in one day, exactly on the day and at the price he said he would. George, his father and brother were very respectful of our home and abided by COVID restrictions seriously. In my opinion, A.R. Bowen is the only contractor anyone should go to for fireplace repair."

"Service was fast and efficient and the workers were knowledgeable on what would need to be fixed on the fireplace."

"Manuel & Julio arrived exactly on time and took care of my fireplace and chimney cleanly and efficiently. Everything went perfectly smoothly. I will definitely hire them again."

"Wow - punctual, courteous, professional, honest, and couldn't have asked for more.  First of all, a quick comment:  Most of the "A" rated services would not accept my business because I have pellet stove inserts.  I assume this is simply because the stove has to be pulled out and disconnected.  Metropolitan Chimney Masonry Service Inc. accepted immediately, and was very prompt and professional throughout. 
   Our rep showed up exactly on time, and explained everything that was to be done.  He was very careful while moving items around to gain access to the pellet stove, and answered all of my questions thoroughly.  He was very pleasant to work with.
    Special note:  I was a bit worried, as I have never employed a chimney sweep before, and a neighbor said that she needed to have a lot of work done.  Since it's a bit like taking your car into the shop (your flux capacitor is shot), the average Joe doesn't really know what's really needed in the dark recesses of our chimneys.  I was both relieved and very impressed with his explanation that my chimney was in fact in "very good" shape, no special or significant repairs were needed, and it was not very dirty at all (pellets produce low ash, he explained).  The crown is a bit worn re the masonry, and he showed my a picture and explained what a new crown would do to prevent rain water from seeping into the bricks.  I never felt any pressure, and everything was explained thoroughly.
All in all, outstanding service from a company I trust, and I will definitely be a return customer.  Joe (the average Joe I mentioned earlier)!

"They did a good job.  I have an electric fireplace."

"Very professional and friendly. They made sure no soot left the fireplace. Would use again.
"

"It went very well. They came on time. They did their work well. They told me how often I should get it cleaned and if I'm just using the fireplace twice a year, not to worry, that I didn't have to get it cleaned until every 3 or 4 years."

"I believe everything went fine. They also added a new chimney liner.  The experience was overwhelmingly positive."
