The inspection was very thorough and their report was detailed. We decided to go ahead with the repairs that were suggested. The workers were very friendly and left our home just as clean as it was before they came. They installed the stainless steel liner with a top-mounted damper which came out nicely, however whenever it rains, the rain drops create a loud pinging when hitting the chimney cap that echoes through the liner. Not the end of the world, but somewhat annoying. We decided to add an additional 2' of masonry to our existing chimney, which we were told could not be guaranteed to match the existing stone, but they would try their best. That was a risk we were willing to take to save money, however we were not overly happy with the quality of the masonry work. Matching existing stone is virtually impossible, especially if it is old, however we expected better craftsmanship. They did a nice job cleaning the exiting stone, however the new 2' addition is crooked with large gaps between the stones, especially in comparison with the existing chimney. The chimney was actually more crooked before, but we asked them to fix it during the few days they were working; it's less crooked now, but still noticeable. It looks like a straight-edge was not used, and the crown seems sloppy. In our opinion the quality of the new addition is not stellar, it looks rushed.

This company showed up on list of companies serving my area, but when I called, they informed me they do not service my area (I live right off of major highway only one county away. Angies List should update this company as being only very strictly local to their location.

Did not use Elite.
Response from Elite Chimney Restoration & Maintenance Service

"We are sorry that you were not satisfied with our service and responsiveness. We had many conversations with you in regards to what we felt was necessary to make sure the Fireplace would work properly. We stand by our findings and the codes we quoted. It may not have been to your liking and may not have been in agreement with the town inspector, however as per NFPA codes there were issues that needed to be addressed and noted and we stand behind our findings. For liability purposes we need to satisfy the NFPA requirements and unfortunately this may not have been to your liking. Our technician is certified by the CSIA and has more than 10 years or experience. We stand behind our opinions and recommendations."

"[member name removed], Thank you for the feedback. We spent app. 3.5 hours at your home to complete all the work includng the new crown, replacing the bricks as well as the removing the wood beneath the hearth extension. If you take the total price of all work and materials, the total price paid was fair. It is very hard to estimate how much time exactly a job will take. Sometimes it takes longer and sometimes it take shorter. Hence why we give a straight price on our proposals.This is to protect our clients so that we do not go over budget. Again for the whole job the total price was quite reasonable. If you would like to discuss further please give us a call. I do see that you were happy with our work and graded us well on everything else other that the price on the wood removal. We do try our best."

Good workmanship.  Crew was friendly and answered questions.  They took pride in their work and finished product.  Did the little things that make a difference.  Did a good cleanup of the roof area, gutters, and grounds.

Our house is nearly 100 years old and we just bought it so we weren't sure what we were dealing with from previous owners. They did a thorough inspection of both fireplaces and gave us their honest opinion about what services would be needed in the future. I would definitely call them again if we need work done on them. 
They were also really nice and professional, so that was an added bonus.

Guys were on time, efficient, and cleaned up after the service. Jay described what he saw (we are in a new house) and gave me good advice for using the fireplace this winter.

Well, when I called to get pricing initially, I asked for pricing for cleaning and inspection as well as a rain hat with installation. I was given a price of $225 for cleaning with level II inspection and $149 for rain hat with installation. Then I scheduled the appointment and asked for the cleaning+inspection as well as the installation of the rain hat, which I was told that the guys may not have the exact rain hat required in the truck but they could come back and was fine with that. The guys were running ahead of time that day so they called to see if they could come earlier, which was fine because I had taken off of work to be home. They came and were polite, professional, and went right to work. They showed me pictures and explained everything, but they had not said anything about the rain hat and were packing up to go as the helper that accompanied the technician was looking to get out of there so he could get home (which he told the other guy in front of me). When I asked about the rain hat and the fact that that was something I had wanted done that day or at least have a time scheduled if they didn't have the rain hat size with them, the guy told me that that would be in the report I would get and I could schedule that if that is something I wanted to do........WHAT?! I distinctly remember asking for this service to be done or scheduled to be done that day and not have to wait even more to get a rain hat put on. NOW my husband has to get up on the roof and measure the cap so that we can just do it ourselves instead of waiting on this report and a technician.

They do some chimney thing. We take Elite Chimney Restoration and Maintenance surely from Angie's List. They were really good. They just come, did job at the set and also even set up. At least all clean. There is nothing to complain about.They were nice people. It was really a big thing to do chimney's line up and put something to it. They also didn't just do a  nice job but they even came back and finished this concrete thing. I am satisfied. Their price is reasonable. Reasonable if we compare them to others. It can be cheaper of course. They have a reasonable big price. The job is done really, really good. There is nothing to complain but you'll never know in the time because the chimney's they have done, I don't know when they go to fire and didn't go as expected to be.

The workers were thorough and neat.  It has been over two years since the work was done, and there have been no issues with the new cap.  The problem of water leaking into my chimney chase was completely solved by their work, has not recurred, and the stainless steel will likely last far, far longer than the original galvanized cap.

We have used Elite for several years now to perform our annual chimney sweep

and inspection.  They do a good job & we really like their camera scope, and receiving a

full report with pictures afterwards, for our records.  We have discovered that their prices are a

bit higher than some of the other chimney sweeps in the area - but we would still continue to

call them for service.




Response from Elite Chimney Restoration & Maintenance Service

"Thank you for the positive review. As for our pricing, while there are other companies who may charge less than us, when you consider the value we give, (our sweeps are CSIA certified, we are fully licensed and insured, we have a full time office staff answering calls as opposed to an answering service, give our clients full reports with photos and we are honest and reputable, I think you would agree that we offer excellent value and our customers seem to agree by coming back to us every year. Thanks again for the review and we look forward to servicing you again in the future."

We were very pleased with Jay and Rene, they actually called and came earlier than planned, were very professional and neat. Took pictures of the chimney before and after the sweep to show us how dirty the chimney was and how clean it was after. We will definitely use them again.

Had Elite Chimney come out for a chimney cleaning. The two man crew (Kevin/Rene) showed up on time and were very thorough. Kevin explained everything in detail before starting work, took digital photos before and after so I could see the condition of the flue and the creosote buildup. He made several recommendations and answered all my questions. Afterwards the clean up work was impeccable and they left everything cleaner than it was. I would not hesitate to use them again or recommend them.
