"James did fantastic work today. He performed the annual maintenance/inspection on my wood burning and 2 gas fireplaces. He arrived on time, communicated about what he saw and did, worked quickly, gave me piece of mind that my fireplaces were functioning well and lastly left the fireplaces very clean! Thanks to James and Bonfe for your over 10 years of great service you’ve provided us."

"We woke up to a terrible stench coming out of our fireplace. We knew whatever it was wasn't going to be pretty. We needed help fast. Gem was the first company to answer our call. They sent out Vincent within hours, and he found the culprits-dead squirrels who had gotten trapped in the chimney. Vincent removed them and disinfected the fireplace. Then he inspected both of the chimneys on our 100+ year old house. He showed my husband the camera pics. We needed a new cap on the fireplace chimney and repairs on both chimneys. He came back and fixed everything a week later when the cap came back. Vincent gets 5 stars. I would use them again. The only issue I had was with GEM phone customer service. They had a problem (on their end, not ours) with one of the checks and tried to pressure me into using Zelle. I would have preferred putting it on a credit card, but they don't take them. Credit cards and checks give customers consumer protections."

"I was pleased with initial fireplace cleaning and inspection .Repair work on fireplace and brickwork was done following initial inspection . Work was done in a timely fashion . Logan was knowledgeable and helpful. I would highly recommend Thorson Chimney!"

"Albert, Able Chimney specialist came to clean our Chimney and he was extremely professional and an excellent communicator. He explained what he was doing and what he found in a very efficient and easily understood way. He was very respectful and did a great job keeping everything clean. I would Highly Recommend Albert and Able Chimney. The receptionist Kristin does a wonderful job as well. I am thankful that we had this service done by Alert with Able as we learned our fireplace needs a new liner in order to be use, otherwise if we had used our fireplace we would have had a house fire. Thank You."

"He quickly figured out why the fireplace would not ignite telling us the problem and then fixing it. Very pleasant young man who knew exactly what he was doing. A very positive experience."
