I called to schedule a chimney cleaning and dryer vent cleaning. They were able to schedule me…read morequickly and at times convenient for me. Very professional on the phone. The technician, Val, communicated with me on time of arrival which I greatly appreciate. Val was very professional and alerted me to a serious issue with my very old chimney that I didn't know was present. I am thankful. He also provided me with options and excellent explanations of each. In the same visit I learners that Lone Star provides other services such as gutter installation and services. That's my next appointment to schedule with Lone Star! On an unrelated he was super sweet to my pestering dog.

UPDATE, 10/28/26:…read more Eli, the affable company head, responded to my original review and came out to inspect the job site in person, sporting white socks. It was evidently important enough for him to meet with an unhappy client that he drove out to work on the day of Sabbath. He struck me as a standup guy and a shrewd businessman trying to get in front of potentially damaging publicity. He assured me that he would drill the technician on the importance of proper regular equipment maintenance. Jacob, the technician, cleaned the inside of my chimney only to end up contaminating the whole house when the dust-spewing vacuum cleaner, instead of capturing the dislodged creosote, blasted it in the general direction of the kitchen in a carcinogenic dust cloud, covering everything in its wake--with the ceiling fan further exacerbating the dispersal of particulates. Eli said that his now-six-year-old chimney business averages roughly 20 jobs per day and, occasionally, people make mistakes--that workers are required to check their vacuum cleaners rigorously to ensure mishaps like this don't happen. I'd argue that this can't possibly be an isolated incident, a Jacob-specific problem. Eli requested that I not mention in my updated review that he had given me a partial refund as a gesture of goodwill to be used toward deep cleaning because he worried some people might glean the wrong lesson from it and perhaps try to extort the company in the event a job goes wrong again. I'm including it here, however, because I think it should serve as a reminder that the company paint a realistic picture of just how messy an indoor chimney cleaning can be and that a client be able to properly assess the risks and to opt out if they so choose. The kicker is that things didn't have to pan out like this. Jacob had done a beautiful job with my chimney ON THE OUTSIDE, power-washing it, filling in the gaps with fresh mortar, and putting a new cap on it. It's just that the cleaning ON THE INSIDE, which was FREE, went wrong in all the ways it could have gone wrong. Eli left my house with the bottom of his formerly pristine feet covered with soot. He was apologetic and good-humored. The now revised three-star review reflects his genuine effort to right a wrong. I wish I could give his business five stars. * * * * * My chimney guy just left my house, leaving in his wake a film of fine black dust, no doubt from the blasting of the creosote off the inside of the fireplace, on EVERY HORIZONTAL SURFACE IMAGINABLE in the house, including the kitchen, which is nowhere near the fireplace. It's a small house, yes, but still. Now I have to wipe down every conceivable surface inside the house, horizontal and (likely) vertical, and wash EVERYTHING. The fracking floors are slick with soot now. Be careful what you ask to be done. I was certainly never prepared for the aftermath of this chimney sweep / fireplace cleaning--especially as I have never used and will likely never use the fireplace. The fumes from the fireproof paint have been etched in my brain forever and are still making me woozy. Don't be like me. Ask questions before you agree to anything. Lone Star, you may want to invest in a vacuum cleaner with a HEPA filter. This company seems to misrepresent itself by touting the "Asian-owned" badge. When asked to clarify, Michelle from the company told me she had no idea what I was talking about, that there are no Asians at this business that she knows of. Yelp, what's that about?* ------ *Eli reported that he would contact Yelp about this claim, and it has since been removed.

Our insurance originally denied our roof claim, but Adrián Ramírez from CornerStone Cowboys…read morerecommended a public adjuster who helped us with the process. It took some time, but eventually the insurance approved the claim and covered our roof replacement. CornerStone Cowboys did a great job on the installation, and we're very happy with the final result. Definitely recommend Adrián and his team.

Our home is 15 years old and didn't have gutters around the entire roofline. We have since…read moreinstalled gutters but as a result of years of water pouring down in certain areas, we found some issues. In back, I noticed our spigot was loose so I opened a small section of the Hardie board and noticed wood rot underneath. Yikes! Similar issue near the bathroom pop out window. I contacted Cornerstone Cowboys for an estimate via Yelp and Carlos responded quickly. Carlos, Jesus and Rosie came out the next day to take a look at our issues and to come up with a game plan. I was sent the estimate and gave them the go ahead. Jesus arrived bright and early to start and the job finished in a reasonable time. The areas that were fixed look FANTASTIC. P.S. Carlos, Jesus and Rosie were super friendly. The one thing we wish we had was a little more clarification with the pricing/estimate prior to signing it. I had asked questions and thought we were all on the same page. Unfortunately, there were added expenses that my husband and I thought were included that weren't and we had to pay extra. Regardless, we are happy with the work that was done and would definitely consider working with Cornerstone Cowboys. Next time we will need things on the estimate broken down more and any and all clarifications be made prior to starting. Thank you Cornerstone Cowboys.

With a description that was just a few sentences, he brought our vision to life. His ability to translate ideas into reality was truly impressive. The entire crew was professional, responsive, and communicative throughout the process. Our project manager, Nicholas, was especially attentive, visiting multiple times during construction to ensure everything was on track and making any needed adjustments right on the spot. It was clear they genuinely cared about delivering the highest quality work. Our backyard exceeds our expectations in every way. It's stunning, functional, and has quickly become our favorite place to spend time with friends and family. System Pavers truly went above and beyond for us. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking to transform their outdoor space into something special. If you're dreaming of a backyard oasis, look no further--they'll make it happen. If you are interested in contacting recommend calling Kevin Madden (832) 776 1993.
