Our very old gas fireplace was almost impossible to start because the key was stripped, and then…read morelast season it began setting off the carbon monoxide alarm .... So we meant to get it looked at in the off season, but forgot. So come this fall, we started calling some of the bigger and closer chimney places, but they didn't seem to want to try to fit us in this season or didn't even know if they serviced our type of fireplace. We didn't seem like a big priority. So I saw how many good reviews Chimney Care Guys had, and asked my husband to call them. Husband handled 95% of the experience and it was excellent, they were so helpful and renovated our fireplace so it's now remote control operated (read: idiot proof!) and clean and no carbon monoxide! Just SO pleased with the service and the fact that they treated us like valued customers and got us set u for this season even though we waited until November to call. Frankly I'm so happy my 16 year old senior cat is back to her spot in front of the fireplace.

10/10 Recommend!…read more We've had the Chimney Care Guys out twice-once to prep for the winter use and once again for general cleaning/maintenance. We had the same 2 professional and kind technicians both times. They were quick, efficient and courteous. They cleaned the fireplace very well and offered to throw out the old log that was left in there. They even remembered that we had a kiddo who loved watching them and conversed with them. Very kind, very professional and will recommend 100%! They will be the ones we stick with for all future cleanings.

The technicians did an excellent job of explaining why they did what they did and showing the before repair and after repair differences. I will continue to use them.

Not a huge selection, but again, they are being phased out on the natural fireplaces. My Husband and his Brother did the installation themselves bc KBL's guy was having surgery and doing it ourselves saved a lot on labor. Kevin at KBL was fantastic from start to finish. Excellent salesman and willing to talk and educate you on whatever you need in regards to your home build.

Appreciate W.M. Masters' reply, but need to fact check a few things. I never denied…read morethere was a leak, refrigerant needed to be added to the system. So, there's a small leak somewhere. That's when I told him I would try to get another year or two out of the coil. Never blamed him for causing another leak, just asked him to be careful handling the tubes because we don't want another leak. Only reason I'm posting this review is because of the a-coil rust. Like you said, I was there when he removed the access panel. I saw no rust anywhere on the coil. He said he noticed the rust. Well if he did, he didn't say anything about it. If it was rusted as shown in the pictures, nobody would have attempted to do a leak test. You would have said your a-coil is shot and needs replaced. Again, never brought it up. Also, never saw you wipe the sprayed liquid off the coil, you just put back on the access cover. All I know is the front of our a-coil is seriously corroded, only the part that was sprayed. Everywhere else on the coil looks new. I wasn't expecting anything out of this posting other than to share my experience with others so they can make an informed decision when looking to hire a company. They certainly can believe what they want. I hold no bad feelings toward W.M. Masters. Cory is a nice young man, and was very respectful. I probably made him nervous following him around like a shadow. Guess I would be too. It's just that we got burnt before by a company charging for work never done. Just wish that the coil was rinsed off of that leak spray before replacing the access panel. Looks like we'll be replacing our AC system sooner than we originally thought.

Now in 2023, I wanted it cleaned again and inspected since we had used it quite a bit for 3 years. Chimney Doctor came out and I was impressed. They protected my floors and white fireplace from dust and debris. There was 4" of gunk up in my fireplace chimney that he cleaned out. He also put the camera up to see if the chimney was healthy and made recommendations as well as sending me quotes for those options. Overall, his visit today was reasonably priced and I think the work was very thorough. They did say they don't normally come this far to my small town but I'm glad they did because I would recommend them again.
