"They were clean, and efficient and told us the same thing another Chimney service told us last year about some repairs. Joe is a nice guy and knows what he's doing. Ask for Joe if you need work done."
"Mike Haskin provided wonderful service. Being able to schedule the appointment on-line for next-day service and also having Mike call from his cell phone for confirmation made for a very efficient experience. When I told Mike I had a time crunch, he arrived early, with an extra worker, and was in and out of my house in less than 20 minutes! And the fireplace is clean and burning wood with no smoke. Great job!"

Before filing a claim, review your policy to understand what is covered, such as restoration costs, replacement of damaged items, and temporary relocation. It's crucial to document all damage thoroughly, including to furniture and personal belongings. Contact your insurance provider promptly to start the claim process and get an evaluation before hiring professionals. Your insurer may also provide a list of approved smoke remediation companies to streamline the process.
