"He called right before he was supposed to be here for the first appointment because he had vehicle trouble. We rescheduled it for the following Monday morning at 8; at 9 I called the office and got a recording. About 9:30 he called to tell me that he was having the vehicle towed and that he was loading the stuff in his personal vehicle so he could come and take a look at everything. He couldn't go on the roof to look at the chimney because he couldn't transport the big ladders. He did get the chimney cleaned out. He seemed to be very knowledgeable about the workings of the fireplace. He came back and put some caps on the chimney later. The whole time he was here, he was trying to sell more stuff and more stuff and more stuff."

"Before making bid, inspected roof and pointed out damage to chimney. Took pictures of chimney so I didn't have to climb roof. Bid included what materials they would use, what services they would provide, and samples of the roofing and colors. The house has two dormers in front, and other odd angles and pitch. The owner came all 2 1/2 days it took to finish the job. Used 5 workmen who were pleasant, professional, very good at their jobs. And cleaned up each day. I was very pleased with the finished product. I go 4 bids, Greene's price was comparable to the others and they provided more services than the others. I highly recommend them.
