Get matched with top chimney liner installation pros in Potomac, MD

"If I could give Chimney Discounters, LLC six stars, I absolutely would!!!! My experience with this company was outstanding from start to finish. We needed a new chimney liner and a new chimney damper with a top sealing cap (to keep out pests) installed in a chimney that hadn’t been used in over 50 years, and from my very first phone call, I was impressed by their honesty and professionalism. Instead of trying to sell me unnecessary services, they took the time to listen, offer thoughtful guidance, and recommend exactly what was needed—nothing more. That level of integrity immediately earned my trust. Mr. Thomas was incredibly knowledgeable and made me feel completely at ease. It was clear right away that he truly understands chimneys and takes pride in his work. From the initial inspection through the completion of the project, he and his team were consistently punctual, courteous, and professional."

"The repointing work was generally done well. Old mortar and bricks were removed and new bricks were installed. The craftsmanship was excellent. However, the color of the mortar used differed from that in the rest of the brickwork, so at present it stands out. Sixpenny said to wait a period and then re-evaluate whether any change should be made. I would rate this as an "A" but for the color difference in the mortar that was not expected. The chimney cap work was done well."

"We had a chimney fire in February and we had them come inspect the chimney damage and stove condition. They installed a new stainless chimney liner and new Jotul wood stove. We couldn’t be happier with the service and purchase. Top notch experience! We highly recommend!"

"Al did an amazing job! He installed a stainless steel liner and brought my chimney and oil furnace safely up to code. He was professional, respectful, and took great care of my home throughout the entire job. I highly recommend Al for his quality work and attention to detail!"

"I have used American Professional Chimney and Masonry on three different occasions and I am very happy with the work and the service. They are my "go to". I had the upper 40% of my chimney rebuilt, I had chimney liners installed, and I recently had a couple of smart solutions done to prevent smoke from going up and out of one flue, and down the one right next to it. I'm confident that this problem has been eliminated in advance of the upcoming fall/winter wood burning season. I will continue to use APCM for maintenance."

"Extremely professional and a man of his word. Found some problems left over from a previous Chimney company and corrected them. Replaced damper and flue and did excellent work. I recommend this company very highly."

"Sergio and his team repaired our chimney, including the liner, plus slate replacements on our roof. Very professional, extremely good work for a very reasonable price. All the things you could want with a major home repair."

"Very likeable staff who explained exactly what they were doing at each step in relining the chimney and making repairs to smoke chamber."

"Could have been a lot better. I really wanted to like these guys based on a lot of positive AL reviews. After the initial inspection before having chimney cleaned, I was told the liner (tile) was beyond repair and needed to be replaced. I agreed to a price estimate of $3600. Two weeks later they came to do work and two men spent an entire day, but could not insert the new liner. They said estimator did not tell them scaffolding would be needed. The next day (after being told another crew would arrive around 8AM), they showed up at 11:00 and immediately said they were going to lunch. Afterwards, they told me that the first crew was inexperienced and that they had 20 years experience doing this. After some time they told me it was highly recommended I replace the second flue liner for the furnace. They said since they were already there and had everything set up that it would be an additional $1200. After talking to the office, they decided that it couldn't be done that day, and it would instead cost me an additional $2600. I took a pass. Crew seemed very eager to leave, collect their check, and get back home. Had to move back furniture myself. As I said.....really wanted to give these guys a good review, but this was not a very pleasant experience. **UPDATE** This is a follow up to my review from 1/20/2020. I received a call from the owner (Jim) and was very pleased that he took the time to explain everything to me and was very eager to address all my concerns, including personally coming out to my house and advising me on another issue with my furnace venting that I had not known about. So, ultimately, the work done was fine and very professional and it totally changed my opinion when the owner showed such understanding and support. This is what good customer service ought to be."
