"They did a great job. They solved all the problems I had with the chimney and it’s been working perfectly ever since. They also fixed a problem on the roof around the chimney; they replaced the wood around the chimney with a material that would never rot, so they fixed it even better than it was before. It took them a couple of days to do the work. They took care of all the cleanup as well. We've been real happy with them."

"I have been using them for years and they are really good about moving the furniture and getting special work on certain bad stains. They are always very pleasant and they show up when they say they are going to show up and then they are gone. I don't know how big they actually are because normally it's the owner's son who does my house but even when it's been other people, they've been good. I would give them A's on all categories."

  • Help reduce energy bills by helping regulate your home’s temperature
