I highly recommend Tyler. He responded quickly, did the chimney repair work quickly, and did a great job. He saved me a lot of money compared to another estimate. He is also pleasant, professional and easy to work with. He explained everything thoroughly. It was an excellent experience.

We've used Walt Eger several times. They always do the repair when they say it will get done. They are very good about calling and getting permission to fix any extras (like the weak axle) that should be done.
