Called in the a.m. and left a message on an answering machine. He got back to me within two hours. Scheduled a time for the afternoon and he showed up on time ready to work. Pulled apart the burner and sensor, replaced a nozzle, and fired it up. We had hot water. Cleaned up the space, answered all of my questions, and was okay with me watching him work. Excellent! I have his business card and I am now a client.

John and crew were amazing! I really wish I had called them earlier. We had a tough truck cab that…read moreprobably weighed 800-1000 pounds and was way around the house and down a bank. I didn't know if it could be moved. John got his backhoe through some tight spots around the house and grabbed the cab and pulled it out. He maneuvered back around the house and got the cab in the dump truck. He then picked up a heavy old engine and 25 tires. They also went back and picked up scraps of metal and the bumper/scraps and raked up all the glass. John and his helper were so friendly and professional and had a can-do attitude. They were so nice and had a great sense of humor and were great to deal with. They did everything for a very reasonable price and very quickly. I would recommend this company 1000 times over. If you are looking for some really good guys who are service oriented and will tackle almost any job, go with the Dump Guy. You will be so happy you did! Thanks John!

The Hearth Doctor had one job: install a fireplace. They failed at every turn…read more They claim they went "above and beyond." The photos show otherwise. We've owned and renovated three homes, and this was by far the worst experience we've ever had with any company. We hired Hearth Doctor to install a Renaissance 600 fireplace--a pricey, complex unit--and they botched it from start to finish. Safety ignored: They skipped a required radiation shield and told me to stuff insulation against the chimney pipe--an outright fire hazard. Only after I contacted the manufacturer did they reluctantly fix it, which meant removing a chimney already mounted two stories up. Timeline blown: A 2-day job dragged into 3.5 months, with constant delays and misinformation to my contractor. Poor workmanship: They mis-measured, forced rebuilds, denied necessary vents (later confirmed essential by the manufacturer), installed the unit with a broken door, then crudely bent the keyhole instead of replacing it. Finally, the fireplace was left visibly off-level, making finishing work nearly impossible. No accountability: Across six visits between June and September, I never received an apology. When I asked for a discount, they brushed me off, insisting they'd provided a "safe, functional, professional installation" that went "above and beyond" If this is their idea of "above and beyond," I shudder to think what "average" looks like. Bottom line: unsafe, sloppy, unprofessional. Save yourself the grief--do not hire this company.

They finally came with one load a cord and dumped it. I had to split a great deal of it as it wouldn't fit in my stove. There were all kinds of small pieces mixed in and when I went to show them the pictures of what we got I was told since we were unhappy with the first load they weren't going to deliver the rest of it and gave me a refund for the three cord we were expecting to get.I did have them for my oil for two years but I will find some place to get my oil since they run that type of business. If you order wood from them DON'T EXPECT MUCH. I think they gave me a raw deal just because I questioned what I got. Now I am left to look for wood elsewhere when we expected to get all of it from them. NOT A VERY FRIENDLY COMPANY TO EXPECT MUCH FROM. Think twice before ordering wood from them
