It went relatively well. For a very dirty and dusty job the team kept most of it contained. We are pleased with the outcome.

The service went great. Brad did a thorough inspection of the fireplace, chimney, outside of chimney including flashing on roof, cleaned fireplace. He advised on & provide estimate for repairs to chimney waterproofing, cap, flashing. He called on his way, was on time, took care to cover the floors and carpet. He was very knowledgeable & professional. I am a longtime, but not frequent, customer of Blackburn's and I recommend them.

Great! We went with Blackburn's since they did a great job at our old house and new house. When they did the chimney cleaning at our apartments they used a camera to inspect them as well. We found some cracks and used their recommended lining program to reline them. Their installers are excellent and very professional. Everything was clean and they worked very quickly. We love Blackburns!

They did a great job and covered the floor with drop cloths. Only complaint is they seem a bit pricey ($220 - senior discount + tax = $212). BUT, there were two people and they were here nearly an hour.

I had 2 workers arrive on time and completed the inspection and cleaning. They were careful to keep my house clean by placing drop clothes in the areas where they were working. They provided me with their findings with photos. I was very pleased with their service.

Inspection determined that best to replace exposed part of flue rather than try to repair. On scheduled day, workers showed up on time, and did work as contracted. Very courteous and professional. Flue looks great.

I have to also say that this company is dishonest. My chimney has a water leak. In 2007 Blackburn came out cleaned the chimney and replaced the cap. Which blew off in the next wind storm. But they came out and put it back. Which was fine. This time chimney has a water leak. I called and requested an est. They said it would be 219 dollars. I explained that i closed off the chimney years ago and I just wanted an est on repairs. New cap or whatever was causing the issue. No cleaning or 3 point chimney inspection, as they called it. Just go up look at the chimney, see what repairs and parts would be required. Then give an estimate etc... The lady said the best they could do was 189. Thats ashamed, I'm a repeat customer. They seem to be just cash hungry. It's sad they wanted 200 bucks to do work that was not need to provide an estimate on work that needed to be done. Very disappointed they refuse to come out and provide an estimate.

Dear Customer, The National Fire Protection Association recommends that a chimney be swept and or evaluated on a yearly basis to maintain the fireplace and chimney. Since the last service at your home was in 2007, an evaluation is recommended. Blackburns Chimney Services has found that it is a disservice to complete a repair estimate when water is entering the home. Recommending to repair a certain part of the chimney oftentimes resulted in additional damage, leaking and frustrations for the home owner as it was later determined that other areas of the chimney structure were causing water to enter the home as well. Instead of completing multiple repairs over time while troubleshooting the issue, technicians complete an evaluation of the chimney and fireplace system to comprehensively investigate where water is entering the home and determine if the water has compromised the integrity of the system making it unusable. The technicians evaluate the cap, crown, house seams, brick and mortar joints, shoulders and flashing provided we can reach the chimney with a 32 foot ladder. For prefabricated fireplaces, the chase, chase cover, and cap are evaluated. Downspouts and gutters can allow water to accumulate at the chimney. Grading of the yard can cause leaks in the firebox. Improper venting of the furnace and hot water tank can cause water issues and condensation as well. The technicians will run a camera inside the fireplace chimney to determine if water has damaged the interior components and to verify that the system is usable. The basement and attic areas of the chimney will be evaluated if they are accessible. Similar to the diagnostic completed by an automobile specialist, there is a charge to complete the water entry evaluation. Pictures and recommendations are provided to the home owner so they can make the best repair choices for their home. Home owners are welcome to email pictures of areas of concerns if they are wanting a guess as to the repairs needed; however, only a thorough evaluation can help locate the source of water entry and the needed repair recommendations. Sincerely, Debbie Wiedwald 614-297-387004/15/2019
