"I had CO2 coming into my house from the oil burning furnace (located in basement) via the wood burning portion of the fireplace (located in living room). This is definitely a safety issue and Hoyt Masonry LLC called within minutes of me putting the information on Angi. He came out the following day and determined a liner had to be installed in the section where the furnace exhaust is piped up through the fireplace. The current one was comprised somehow and leaking over to the wood burning portion of the fireplace. The new stain steel liner had a lifetime manufacturer warranty and was the material recommended by another vendor. Based on the discussion with the other vendor, the price was fair. The liner was installed in a few days, considering he had to overcome supplier chain issues, and a hand injury which required immediate attention that day. He showed up the next morning at 7am to complete the job. ( He felt bad he couldn't get it done the same day). We still had some lingering CO2 smell in the living room and finally determined the bat cover over the exterior fireplace entrance needed to be changed ( installed less than 1 year earlier). Have no had any other issues after getting original installer (pest control company) to change the cover, During this time, Sean came back to check that there were no issues with the new liner and helped debug the problem (always got back to me when I had some questions). Sean and his crew worked fast, returned my calls/texts in a reasonable amount of time, informative, fair price, and left no mess. Would definitely use them again"

"Al was fantastic! He clearly explained that my fireplace was shutting off as a safety feature due to low oxygen levels. He also reassembled the logs in the firebox and showed me the proper way to start and stop the fireplace. Highly recommend his service!"

"Omar and Victor did an excellent job. They inspected and cleaned the chimney and installed the new stove. Work was efficient and effective. They cleaned up after themselves and were extremely pleasant to spend the time with. I thank them for their good work. Whitney Schofield"

"Wonderful, wonderful service. Go immediately to Paramount for all of your fireplace/wood stove needs."

"Travis was very thorough and courteous. He explained the sequence in restarting the gas fireplace."

"Duran removed my old gas fireplace, ran a new 6-inch insulated liner down the chimney, (which was not easy, the flue needed to be opened up a bit in certain spots). He rebuilt and repointed my upper chimney, waterproofed it, and installed an amazing new wood burning fireplace, that we are loving! He came out to the house, estimated the job for free. His price was thousands less than the competitors (others charged $250 just to come out and estimate) Duran was professional, honest, clean, hardworking and affordable. If you're getting chimney work done, you are crazy if you don't call this guy. I highly recommend. R"

"The chimney work on our home was extensive, and seeing it handled properly made a huge difference. The exterior was repaired and reinforced so it’s solid, weather-resistant, and no longer deteriorating the way it was before. The focus was clearly on long-term durability rather than just appearance, and the finished result blends well with the house while feeling much more secure. Communication throughout the process was straightforward, and the work showed a lot of care and experience. If someone we know ever ends up dealing with similar chimney issues, this is exactly the type of work we’d want them to have done."

"Josh arrived fully prepared to clean my gas fireplace and chimney. He explained everything clearly, was meticulous about cleanliness, and solved an unexpected issue with ease. He relit the pilot light and explained everything to me as he went along. Based on Josh’s work, I can highly recommend Ashguard to care for your fireplace."

"All aspects of the job went as well as it possibly could. The carpenter patched the roof so one couldn’t even tell a chimney had ever been there. The large metal chimney was removed without incident. The gas fireplace insert needed to be cut out so as to preserve the brick encasing the fireplace and the wood mantel. Jim then expertly installed the electric fireplace, doing a beautiful job both solidly securing the new fireplace and making sure the presentation of the fireplace was perfect! It was a pleasure to see someone take meticulous care throughout the entire job, which included thoroughly cleaning up afterwards."
