The work was very thorough, never felt rushed, and they truly went above and beyond. Adam was a man of his word -- showed up on time, communicated clearly, and delivered excellent work. He also made sure we knew we could always call with any questions or follow-ups, which we really appreciated. We normally don't leave reviews, but this experience was absolutely worth it. We've had bad experiences with other chimney companies in the past where workers rushed through the job and the quality of work reflected that. This experience was completely different. The quality of work was outstanding, and everything was handled with care and professionalism. We will definitely be recommending them to family and friends with chimneys!

I'm very happy with the customer service and product from Kidd. I ordered both a gas insert…read more(Jotul) and a gas log set from Kidd in late February 2021. Randy was clear that there is a supply chain delay in receiving both inserts and log sets, and that the delay is particularly long and unpredictable for the gas log sets. Our insert arrived within the time frame that Randy had stated (early May 2021), and was installed by the technicians to whom Kidd had referred us. We were unhappy with the size and fit of the surround plate for the insert, and Randy took it to a metal shop to adjust it for us. The first attempt resulted in a broken plate, so Randy had another plate made for us there. He painted it the custom color that we had specified and returned to install it himself. It looks great and we are very happy with how Randy would not stop until we were satisfied. We still don't have the log set, but Randy has managed our expectations by communicating clearly and consistently with us about this timing.

We had Randy come out to service our SPARK 88NE that was installed new by a contractor in 2015 and…read morehad never been thoroughly cleaned. We also felt the flame was too low and more blue than yellow. We bought this place in 2017 so we felt it was time we had someone check it out. Randy was on time and he spent a total of about three hours taking the fireplace apart, cleaning it, making a few adjustments and putting it back together. Total cost was just under $1,000!!! We just gulped and paid, figuring we'd gone 7 years without really touching the thing. Unfortunately, after Randy left we noticed an odd flame rising above the area where the pilot light sits. We contacted Randy and he said he'd have to call SPARK to get their feedback on the odd flame. I waited a few days and hearing nothing from Randy, I contacted SPARK myself and sent them a picture of the odd flame. SPARK replied saying everything was fine, but that Randy had improperly adjusted something and just needed to readjust it. I sent SPARK's reply to Randy and he responded saying he'd be out "on Friday" to make things right. Friday came and no Randy. I contacted him and he said there must have been a misunderstanding - there wasn't, as I had his email. He said he had another customer nearby and he was waiting on a part for that customer, so he'd contact me as soon as he had the part and was coming this way again. That was early Nivember. I heard nothing for weeks so I reached out a week ago to find out when Randy could return. I was then contacted by his partner/assistant, who informed me Randy was unfortunately in a bad accident and would probably be out of commission for several weeks. Obviously it is beyond Randy's control that he's injured and needs time to recover, but we're still shocked that after paying nearly $1,000 for three hours of service (no parts) back on October 31, 2024, there has been no real effort on the part of Kidd Fireplace to make things right for us. We've had to do all the contacting, research with the manufacturer, etc. We've been very patient as well. Sadly there seem to be very few NFI Certified technicians here in Northern California so Randy Kidd is literally the only game, an unreliable game at that, in town.
