"Where do I start??? Hired to come and clean the chimney out before a Reno project. Took a vacation day and then got a call late afternoon that they had an emergency and had to reschedule. Changed to the next day. Then got another call late afternoon that they had to reschedule again after I took another day off. I said no. You need to honor your commitment. They said they would be there after 5 on that day. Fine. Got a call at 6pm from tech trying to find my address. Not even sure where he was. Tried calling the tech back 45 min later and he wouldnâ t answer. Needless to say I lost 2 vacation days and no response from this company. They never even reached out to reschedule. DO NOT HIRE THEM."
