Supposedly he looked it over and told me it was all clean and I didn't need anything.... And charged me $150. That obviously was not true because the chimney got plugged up and we had a lot of smoke in our house. First rate chimney came out, took photographs and showed the creosote buildup that could not possibly have just happened since September.

Using the Yelp business finder feature was fantastic!…read more Seriously felt so blessed to have Justin and his team work on our chimney. His response time was really quick. We had to rebuild part of our chimney due to buyers that we negotiated with on our home sale. He was able to come the next day to do a quote and send an estimate. I had another company through Yelp respond as well. But their pricing was competitive. He was very honest and genuine about the masonry work that they could do for us. His team came in, set up, and nearly rebuilt the first day and it is not a small chimney. The crew also cleaned up the messy job. ( due to the nature of masonry not because they were sloppy ) We are very satisfied and anyone using their services will be pleased as well!

If you're considering Alliance, don't…read more Roughly a year or so ago I hired them due to a leak coming from my chimney. After their inspection it was determine the flashing was in poor condition and needed to be replaced. This was done. About a month or two later the leak returned and some additional work on the flashing performed. Cut to earlier this year and the leak once again returned. Having lost faith in Alliance I went with another PDX-based fireplace and chimney company. On inspection they immediately asked who had done the work being going over how it was some of the worst, most incompetent/novice work they'd seen, went over the issues, and provided a quote for new flashing. Once work started and the Alliance flashing was removed it was then brought to my attention that not only was the flashing problematic but that the brickwork underneath it was eroded, quite noticeably so. While not Alliance's fault, this was called out as a contributing factor to the leak and should have called out when the original flashing was removed. Should have. They never brought it to my attention. Separate from work performed, Justin was pretty sloppy with communication and paperwork, as it would sometimes require 2 or 3 voicemails before I would hear back from him, as I'd notice issues with the quotes, and as I received calls from him from a few different phone numbers. There was also a tarp left wrapped around the chimney for a few weeks that he had no clue about. In summary: don't walk, run away. Between sloppy admin skills, bad communication, poor quality of work, and the willingness to do the bare minimum while covering up larger issues, I can't in good faith suggest Justin or his "team" to anyone.

Another company said they would only rebuild the entire fireplace and chimney. We never intend to use the fireplace and just needed to protect it from weather and creatures getting in.

Miguel did an excellent job and was very kind. When I first called in, I spoke with Brian who was incredibly helpful! I was worried when I called in, but Brian explained what they needed to do. He patiently gave me clear information. The chimney looks great and it makes the house look great. We're relieved to have it protected now. I would hire this company again!
