A home inspector noted slight titling of all four basement walls in our home, which we had listed for sale. We were working with a very tight timeline, and were so grateful that Lavern Nall was able to evaluate our basement on the same day we called for an appointment. Lavern is experienced,...

not well. The first time with leaking, it was the flashing coming loose, the second time it was an unsealed screw in the flashing and the third time said we needed a new roof and not their responsibility. Having the additional work done by another company. Two roofers said a new roof was...
- Van V.
They were called out for a inspection. They never followed up as stated. I was disappointed that the issues didn't get resolved. I would use them again since they know what issues are going on and what parts are needed to fix the problem.
- Angela B.
This was the second part of the remodeling project that we had John do. Originally, I gave him an "A". If I would have waited, until the entire project was over, I would have given him a "C", at best. I realize he (and myself) would differ on the review. But, he instilled confidence that we...

It went well and the door opens perfectly now. I never realized that my inability to open the door without using the motor was related to the spring - no problem now! He also did the pre-paid inspection and part lubrication. It seemed a bit expensive, but I think you get what you pay for.
- Merry L.
They cleaned the firebox, glass doors, flue and chimney from inside and inspected the cap on the chimney and cleaned from the top down. No soot or mess on the carpet or hearth. They showed up on time and it didn't take very long.
- Will P.
Very professional and prompt. I am a new home owner and he was sure to explain what would take place. Septic was pumped while I was at work. A note and bill were left. Not only was the system pumped but it was cleaned and given a visual inspection. I will definitely use Hellenbrand for...
- Michael S.
They Got rid of a double tap and installed 2 GFCI outlets to satisfy the requirements of a Inspection report when I was selling my house. The electrician was on time and did the work required in an efficient and professional manner.
- Stephen S.
I called and arranged for Peter to sweep my chimneys this afternoon. He didn't show up and he did not call. I left a message to call me back. He didn't call back until 5:25 pm. He apologized and said he didn't remember that he had an appointment this afternoon with me. He asked if another...

Dialed In Roofing & Exteriors
Dialed In Roofing & Exteriors
No matter who you are or what you do - big business or small - everyone needs a good roof over head. This idea has driven Dialed In Roofing & Exteriors to be the most dependable residential/commercial roofing company.
"WOW! 24 hours from dumpster and shingle arrival to dumpster pick up. The roof was DONE in 10 hours - I'm stunned! And I could not be more impressed with Dialed In Roofing & Exteriors and Caesar Dumpster LLC. From the beginning, they were so down to earth and helpful answering all of my questions. Thanh was amazing - he brought the drone out to take footage of the roof and walked me through what he saw up there. Because of the urgency with the 2 bedroom leaks we uncovered, they worked to get the job in the week of - and the good Lord blessed us with a beautiful day for them to work. They adjusted some of the twinkle lights and opened the back gates and everything was put back perfectly and buttoned up tight. I have found less than 10 stray nails, which is amazing! As they did tear off, they WALKED arm fulls of shingles to the higher roof line to throw into the dumpster, instead of letting it all fall over the yard. They had all sides covered with giant tarps to catch debris and keep it as contained as possible. One thing they mentioned that another company didn't, was looking in the attic crawl space for mold. I was even told by others, "oh yeah, I don't need to see it, we'll just go ahead with replacement". Thanh made sure to check out the locations of the leaks, showed me what he found and was comfortable that there was no mold issues present. Caesar Dumpster LLC snuck the dumpster into the driveway, right next to the retaining wall, with zero issues! I was so grateful to see them placing 2x4s down for the dumpster to sit on to preserve the driveway! And he came in quick this morning to remove it - nice and simple! I will rave about this process for a long time, and will recommend Dialed In anytime I have the opportunity! Thanh and crew - THANK YOU for the peace of mind you have given us!!!"

FAQs for chimney inspection projects in Albany, WI
The average cost for a professional chimney cleaning is around $250, but prices range from $130 to $400 or more, depending on a few factors. Some things that have an impact on your total include the size of your chimney, the number of chimneys cleaned, and how accessible the chimneys are.
The cost to install a fireplace is $2,440 on average. This cost can range from $150 to $8,000 or more, depending on the type of fireplace, the materials used, and the size.
Electric fireplaces cost around $1,000 to install, and mostly only require wiring installation. Installing a wood fireplace from scratch could cost upwards of $10,000, depending on the foundation needed to support the weight of the fireplace. In addition, gas fireplaces can cost between $2,500 and $10,000.
The National Fire Prevention Agency (NFPA) recommends chimney sweeping once per year as a means of avoiding house fires and massive property damage. Over time, creosote and soot build up in your chimney from burning wood and a lack of ventilation. These compounds are both highly flammable, which means a build-up of them inside your chimney puts you at an increased risk of house fire. Chimney sweeping removes any residue and helps reduce the risk of property damage and personal injury from fire.
The cost to remodel your fireplace is $1,200 on average. This cost can range from $400 to $2,000, depending on the extent of work needed.

If choosing tile, you can pay between $1 and $50 per square foot, depending on the design. Stone is a more expensive material, averaging between $60 and $70 per square foot.
On average, chimney repairs cost about $455. However, because of the vast range of potential repairs needed, the cost to repair a chimney ranges widely from $160 to $15,000, depending on the type and extent of repairs required.
