The technicians texted me also before arriving and were quick throughout the process. Like last time, they were super careful with their equipment getting in and out of the house, had booties on and took care with everything. I appreciate Bay Services efficiency with the vent maintenance so much.

Dan's Chimney Service is NOT closed!! I know many folks reported he had retired but I assure you…read morehe is working (albeit not as many customers per day as in the past)! I had called since my chimney had become nearly completely blocked. Dan scheduled me for the next day; however, due to the heavy rains he asked if we could reschedule for the very next day! He was very helpful with advice on between cleanings to prevent build up. The value received for $140 was priceless and he's genuinely a nice guy to talk with! Back in 2017 Dan had given us advice on the woodstove we had and that we should consider a more efficient model. He had given us 3-4 suggestions and we went and found one of his recommendations at Tractor Supply on sale. Dan came back out and did the install for us. I've never felt that we were being gouged on pricing or being taken advantage of cost-wise. This service is well worth every penny paid!! Thank you Dan - again for the outstanding service!

He is already late, I cancel, and say that I saw the weather, this Thursday we set another appointment. He fails to arrive. I call and ask if we had the right date. I later find my notes and it was, and he stood me up. I also need a 24 hour window to warn tenants legally. He then calls on the following Monday to show up in a hour. I needed a 24 hour notice to be legally safe. He does not return calls, and three weeks later still the vanish act. Avoid him, even though people rave on BL and BC facebook. There are two Dan's chimney services a few blocks from each other, maybe I got the cluster fuck one, but moving on as I need it cleaned for a mom with 6 kids. I found him unprofessional, could not keep appointments and in short a f...up. Now, remove my yelp review, as most my comments are removed.

Back in 2018 he found and repaired a problem with our flashing and with the spark arrestor on our roof and the job was thorough and has held up. Today Steven and Dave returned and did a thorough job cleaning and inspecting. Quick, courteous, and thorough. A great value - so glad we had them out. Worth every penny for the peace of mind!

Therefore, you are not actually using Dr. Flue, and pricing and other items on their website does not apply. The company that came to clean and repair my chimney did a good job cleaning my chimney. Their repairs were somewhat slapdash, and my roofer was not impressed with their sealing job on my chimney, and ended up redoing it for free for me. Caveat emptor, as they say.

He came out quickly and got me done efficiently and the quality of work was excellent. Even took time to give me tips and tricks.

And, without a gas can. And, as it turns out, without his wallet! So, I let him use my gas can. I drove him to a gas station. I paid for his gas. I drove back, and he filled his tank. Then he looks at my fireplace. He said my flue wasn't open. He opened it. He showed me where it was. He suggested a cleaner for the stones around the fireplace. And then charged me $90.00!! And never gave me the money for his gas!! I don't recommend this business. No integrity. No conscience.

Michael came out to my house and walked me through the pros and cons of a heat pump HVAC. For my home, the extra money made no sense. I really do not need central AC. We then talked about a new Carrier, high-efficency furnace. That was exactly what I needed. I also opted for the Ecobee Smart, wi-fi enabled thermostat. I am extremely happy with everything. The price was right. The installation was flawless. The post-intall QA walkghrough, by Johnny, went really well. ThenI worked with the folks that checked all the boxes post-intalleation. HERS test was easy with a pass.. Today, we passed the inspection, in under 5 minute. Every person I dealt with was amiable and professiona. The office staff always very nice. Michael Calvey was a joy to talk to. Thank you to Johnny, the project manager, and the folks from HOPSTER that facilitated the post-installation test and inspectioin. From start to finish I met with Michael on February 12th. The 16th the new furnace was intalled. February 17th Johnny did the QA walkthrough. February 18th HOPSTER did their pre-test and inspection walkthrough. The HERS test was done February 23rd. March 5th the city inspection was complete. I will continue to use Calvey for annual maintenance
