I've dealt with many contractors over the years but Costal Chimneys was one of the best I've…read moreexperienced for the following reasons:Su 1. Extensive explanation of the process of the chimney inspection. Tom is very knowledgable and came with the right tools for the job. As he was performing the internal flue inspection with a camera he showed and explained what potential issues he looks for. 2. After Tom completed the cleaning, she show us all the flammable debris that was removed. Much more than I had expected. 3. Walking tarps were placed to ensure there would be no dirt tracked on the rugs and hardwood floors. In addition, Tom for slip-on "booties" worn while working on the house. 4. Very good communications.. throughout the process. I received several email and phone communications in response to several questions I had about the inspection process. I also received a confirmation call from him the day before the service. 5. Function...My appointment was for 1:30PM...he was at the door a few minutes before. Summary: IMHO, I don't think anyone that uses Costal Chimney would be disappointed in the least based on my experience. RP, Colts Neck, NJ

He had all the proper equipment to conduct a proper inspection and his knowledge was extensive.

Also, communication throughout the process was excellent! 100% recommendation!

The repaired brickwork was not straight and square which I noticed shortly after the repair but, was willing to live with but I was told that they did not rebuild it to the correct height and the fact that they did not replace the flue liner is an issue. They charged to come out to quote to lock you in and then did inferior masonry. It's too late for any recourse but, can still want others to steer clear!

Fortunately it was his experience that steered us to a unit that was likely in stock and would prevent an extended back-order waiting period. Once the unit arrived, his team was immediately dispatched in full protective gear for the install. However, it was once the install was completed we realized we chose the right contractor. A small install hiccup brought Mike himself to our home at 8:00 at night to correct. THAT'S what you expect from a top caliber company. Something you really don't see in contractors these days. You won't go wrong with this crew!

After having roof work done by a roof contractor I discovered a leak in my ceiling by the chimney…read morechase where it penetrates up and out the roof. Calling back the original roof contractor and informing them of the leak they said I needed to replace the siding of the house in the area of the chimney chase at the tune of $4000!! I then began calling other various contractors for this repair and was told all kinds of BS, from having to rebuild the chimney chase, having to wait as they were too busy, too cold (it was December) and told to wait until spring, etc. It was a bad leak and causing damage to my home not to mention the stress caused on me being at the mercy of contractors. So... I kept on searching contractors and came across Up On The Roof Chimney Sweep during I'm sure their busiest time of the year like everyone else's. However Up On The Roof Chimney Sweep promptly returned my call, took my information, promptly came to measure the chimney chase and came back with a reasonable price and did not take advantage of my situation! I scheduled the job with Up On The Roof Chimney Sweep and could not be happier with the quick prompt service and results that were received! It has been a full 2 months with some heavy gusty rains and no leak so this job was given the test of time! There is barely any worse feeling than being at the mercy of contractors when you have a situation that needs to be correctly fixed in a timely matter and not at a contractor's convenience. Up On The Roof Chimney Sweep not only fixed my chimney leak but relieved the awful stress on me from the start with their integrity, price, answering all my questions, and all the way to the finish product which looks great too! I highly recommend Up On The Roof Chimney Sweep and will definitely use again!!

Yes, very good guy. He did an excellent job with my fireplace. Resonable prices also.read more

UPDATE of my initial review:…read more I spoke with the owner's wife today to discuss the matter. She gladly agreed to refund my money. I have no doubt that Davis Brothers does a good job with traditional chimney, masonry, and fireplace matters. This was simply one of those issues that could not be remedied with conventional solutions and they will be giving me a prompt refund. Davis Brothers is a reputable family- owned and run company who comes highly recommended. I only opted for a refund vs. an additional attempt at remedying the problem because I have already wrapped up the drafty fireplace from the inside as I've done these last 15 years. --------------------------------- Chris, the owner of the company, came to our home to address air coming from the outside into our house through our gas fireplace. The fix was to attach an angled pipe to the existing exhaust pipe (which was pitched straight out) so that air would not have the direct pathway to enter our house. It was not a windy day, so Chris was not able to check out whether his "fix" worked. Well, today, it is very windy in our area and air is now coming in worse than ever. I should've realized that air, like water, WILL find its own path, regardless of the exhaust pipe angle/orientation. This quick fix cost me $265.00 for about 20 minutes worth of work plus the small section of piping and bit of insulation I requested. I would like a reimbursement or, better yet, the problem remedied correctly. If it is a refund, I would just request a reimbursement check in the amount of $265.00 and a confirmation of same. I am not one to shell out that kind of money with no results... Chris mentioned this could be an insulation issue (which would cost thousands of dollars to remedy), but this type of heavy air flow is not the result of a lack of suitable insulation, but rather something NOT BEING IN PLACE which would normally stop outside air from coming in. I believe a minor retrofit of the missing piece is the actual fix, not angling the exhaust piping nor having to do a major insulation job; that much volume of air has nothing to do with insulation. I think it's fair to say insulation combats cold, not large amounts of air entering freely through the fireplace... These guys are the experts, so I expect they'll want to come back for a follow-up repair -- or give me a full refund of $265.00. They are a bunch of nice people and this review is in lieu of confronting them directly, as that has never been my style. I will attempt to fax this review to them in case they don't access Yelp for their reviews. Chris, please give this more thought and then return with a more suitable repair which addresses the problem. Right now, I feel as though I am living in Alaska and have launched my hard-earned $265.00 right down the drain. Thank you! Let's talk. You have my phone number...

I wish I would have read a review like this before picking them - hopefully I can save someone the frustration, and find someone who wants to earn my money. *Edited to add that I had hired them previously a few years ago to replace a cap on my chimney and they did complete that job.

Sorry for the late post. This work was done in 2024…read more Had a leak coming into the basement around the chimney area. Called Reese & Sons because of their high rating and positive reviews. Lucas answered while on an existing job. He was very honest saying he can't drop by to make an assessment. Knowing the importance of the situation, he said he'll have his father drop by to take a look. The father (was it Joe?) came by as promised and saw that the previous roofer didn't put flashing around a portion of the chimney. He gave a couple of possible fixes and I picked the more expensive one. He gave me a break on price if i went with the more expensive fix which i appreciated. Before showing up for the work due to budgeting issues i changed to the lower price solution. He didn't have any problems with this change. He and his other son (not Lucas) came on the day as promised. The funny thing was I didn't know they were there until i heard banging outside! They ripped some of the old roof tiles, installed new flashing and overlay them with some leftover tiles I had laying around. They also caulked around other parts of the chimney. They cleaned up their mess. There were aome storms afterwards and no leak! Thx to Lucas for knowing the importance of the problem and having your father and brother fit me into their schedule. And thx to father and son (was it Joe and Ezekiel?!) for fixing the leak! I would definitely consider them to put in a new roof when the time comes!
