"The grind and repoint work completely changed the condition of our chimney. The deteriorated mortar was properly removed and rebuilt, leaving clean, solid joints and a uniform finish from top to bottom. The process was thorough and never rushed, and it was clear the focus was on long-term durability rather than a quick cosmetic fix. Everything was explained clearly, the site was left clean, and the chimney now feels secure and weather-ready going forward. Very happy with the outcome.Highly recommend!!"
"We had a great experience with this company. They cleaned our chimney, installed a new chimney liner, replaced the necessary parts, and put on a new chimney cap. The entire process was professional, efficient, and very reasonably priced. Eric was friendly, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain everything they were doing. They left the area clean and made sure everything was working safely before they left. We really appreciated their honesty, quality workmanship, and affordable pricing. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable chimney repairs or maintenance!"
"I had them do a cleaning and inspection of my chimney and they found damages to the brickwork and the top of the chimney. They installed a new cap and their cost was so reasonable. All their work is guaranteed as well, which is reassuring. They were clean, efficient and courteous. I would highly recommend Handy Andy and in fact they are doing an estimate for my neighbor to whom I recommended them to."
"Hired them to repair chimney, including replacing missing bricks, resetting mortar and, cementing top and installing a chimney cap. They performed everything to spec and were fast and efficient all the way through."
"Cory did an excellent job on my firebox and chimney top. It was discovered I need some work on the chimney liner but he focused on the job at hand and gave me an estimate for the liner later rather than pushing it on the spot. Will go with Shamrock again for the liner and routine chimney sweeps and waterproofing."
