I highly recommend Certified Chimney of Holtsville. A lightning strike caused damage to my chimney. I needed a new liner as well as a new cement crown and other work done to bring my chimney back up to snuff. The owner, Charles and his two associates (Christian and Christopher) did an outstanding job. They are extremely professional, neat and friendly. They completed the job quickly and the most important thing is that I was given a very decent price. If you need chimney work done, don’t hesitate to call them.

I was very pleased with the work that was done by this company. Initially I thought that I only needed a chimney cap installed, but after a careful inspection of my chimney, it was found that a crumbling and deteriorating lining of my chimney interior wall had occurred leaving a potentially dangerous situation in my house. I was actually shown the damage so I could determine for myself the extent of the problem. The company installed a new lining and chimney cap in a short period of time, leaving a clean work area. The workmen were extremely polite and answered all my questions thoroughly. I would definitely recommend them for chimney work.

We contacted this company to get a quote on inserting a stainless steel liner in the chimney of our newly purchased home. On inspection, they showed that the flue at the base of the chimney was nearly blocked & advised immediate installation of a liner, which they were able to do that day. Unfortunately, as the liner was being inserted, the chimney began to disintegrate from the roofline up due to lack of maintenance by the prior owners. Charles & Dylan were able to get the liner fully inserted and the boiler & hot water heater reconnected without issue. Jeanette in the office was able to work with us during a week of very iffy weather to get Fred the mason back to the property (on a Saturday, no less!) to rebuild the chimney. Everyone at the company was very honest & straightforward with us when it came to issues and pricing. I've already begun recommending them to anyone that mentions they're having chimney issues and would happily use them again!

I think they could have done a more thorough cleaning.
Response from Certified Chimney Service Inc
"Hello [Member Name Removed], Two men went to your home inspected your chimney top to bottom and gave you a 12 point safety inspection. The men brushed and vacuumed your chimney for $59.99. If you thought they could of done a better job, why wouldn't you say something to them or call the office??"

The technician said it didn't need cleaning and with the stainless steel chimney liner I had installed recently, I wouldn't need a chimney inspection for 5 years. However, he did say that my chimney was missing a cap, so I purchased one from him and he installed it.

The service itself was totally fine. The company needs to be more responsive to emails (in order to set up the appointment).
