roof cleaning

Job was only partly done, not because of anyone's fault, but because of machine. Still, it was next to impossible to schedule rest of job, especially removal of all the leaves blown from the roof that then blocked the door.
Description of Work: There is little communication between office, client, and actual service provider. No one ever calls back.

gutter cleaning
  + -1 more
Technician agreed to complete the job as asked after I pushed back and said I would not pay more. I actually sent him away saying I would get a refund. Very unprofessional and could easily take advantage of someone if they were not careful. Job was ok, at best. Still lots of leaves and debris left behind after the service. DO NOT RECOMMEND!!
Description of Work: I purchased a coupon special online, then called to set up an appointment. It took two calls to get someone who could take my information. I scheduled an appointment, but was then called two add'l time to set up an appointment. Very annoying. I service technician showed up on time for the appointment, but immediately started debating the size of the job. He said he was estimating that is was going to be twice the amount due to the roof size. I asked how he measured, and he said he just eye balled based on past jobs. As I had already paid the $90 for the gutter cleaning, which is high, I offered to show him my house plans to prove that my roof was not over 2500 sq ft.

Dean (Dr. Sweep) arrived and started to work immediately on correcting a few problems with my gas fireplace insert. He explained how the insert works and advised me what to do in the future if I see the problem again. A delightful and entertaining person. Upon further discussion, Dean also checked out the basement fireplace and corrected a few problems with it.
Description of Work: Dr Sweep (Dean) serviced the gas fireplace and corrected the problem I was having along with teaching me about the type of fireplace insert I own. Upon further discussion, he checked out the basement fireplace and corrected a problem along with teaching me what to look for and correct in the future if the problem arises again. Money will spent. Dean is very knowledgable on the subject.

Description of Work: I got the Angie's List Big Deal. All was fine except the company charged an extra $50 saying my home was too large (not so, and they have done it before for standard price), but was able to work it out on the phone.

Wonderful experience! The technician was knowledgeable, skilled, and personable. He responded to our questions patiently and taught us everything we needed to know about operation and maintenance of our gas fireplace. He didn't try to sell us something we didn't want or services we didn't need. I would call Dr. Sweep in an instant if I needed anything related to our fireplaces.
Description of Work: We're first time gas fireplace owners. Our gas logs looked worn and there was much debris in the firebox area. Dr. Sweep performanced a safety check, tune-up, and cleaning.

They were very friendly and professional. After they left, I noticed a rattle coming from the dryer. I called and Matt came out again the next day. He determined there was no problem with the vent. The noise is apparently coming from the control panel of the dryer, unrelated to the vent cleaning. He checked everything to see if anything wasn't tightened. It was a positive experience.
Description of Work: Matt called to tell me they would come between 9 and 1 p.m. They came and did their job, cleaning the dryer vent both inside and outside.

250 See comments above - I am not happy with the cost as well as the service provided given the inability to reach the areas that were badly in need of cleaning and not actually cleaning or inspecting the areas of my house that they did not have the proper supplies (ladders) to reach. I would not recomment them and would like my money back for what was paid.
Description of Work: Gutter cleaning. My issue with the service/cost was that only 1 person came out to my house and they did not have the correct equipment (ladders, power washers) to properly clean all of my gutters. Because trees were not close to where some of my gutters were is not an excuse for not inspecting them to ensure they are properly cleaned. In addition on the areas that had a ton of tree debri, the worker was not able to fully clean the gutter and roof debri to ensure that it would not be filled up with more debri when rain or wind blew things around. I was charged extra for my house as the total square footage exceeded the alotment per the coupon yet they did not even inspect or clean approx. half of my house therefore I was over charged and under serviced

Arrived on time and introduced himself. I should him the fireplace and he started to examine it. Then he swept the chimney and once completed cleaned up everything. He then re examined the flue and showed me what he was talking about. He didn't try to sell me additional items. He did a great job.
Description of Work: Great service and he knew what he was talking about and didn't try to sell uneccesary items. Would HIGHLY recommend him again.

He did an outstanding job on keeping the area clean and also making a minor fix to a wire that held the flue damper in place. The chimney inspection was very thorough.
Description of Work: I used an Angie's List special to get a chimney sweeping. I had previously purchased new gas logs online and Dr. Sweep's technician installed them. He did a very careful and thorough job and left everything very clean. My only concern was that the technician himself did not appear to think much of Angie's List (I think he owns his own business or owned it at one time and spoke from previous experience, not as an employee of Dr. Sweep's).

Poorly! Felt like it was a total ripe off!!! Tech told me I had a big build up of creosote and would need a deglazing coat. And that my fireplace was not safe to burn fires in. He came back two weeks later and I paid him $200 for the treatment which consisted of putting a chemical on the walls of the inside of my chimney. He said to burn a fire for 2 hours and he would be back to check it. After several phone calls and another 2 weeks he came back out. Looked up my chimney with a light and said it needed 2 more coats, 2nd was $300 and 3rd was $400. And that I might need a whole new liner if they couldn't get it off. He did not sweep my chimney at all. I told him I would call if I wanted the 2nd coat done. I had another company come out after that for a second opinion and they cleaned my chimney completely with no chemicals and did a video and pictures of before and after. Dr Sweep has called once since the last visit.
Description of Work: A tech arrived at my house later than scheduled but did call. He sweep my chimney from the outside and then cleaned out my fireplace from the inside with a vacuum. There was no video inspection which I thought was part of the deal.

Dr. Sweep was prompt, they ordered parts and was able to complete the job .The workers had to make an additional trip ( at no additional charge) so the job took 3 days to complete. They cleaned up the debris. The above charge included materials, labor & of course the sweep of the inside of our chimney. I would use them again, & highly recommend them.
Description of Work: The original appointment was to have our chimney cleaned, however it was brought to our attention that our chiminey was close to collasping, this was information we knew but were not able to get it repaired.
