Oregon Chimney was prompt, courteous and knowledgeable. We will use them again. They did a great job cleaning and inspecting our chimney.

I was surprised to hear from Oregon Chimney three years after they completed work at my house. My experience with them back then was good, and I've even referred them to others. So when they sent me a past due bill out of the blue yesterday and threatened to send me to collections over it ("I really don't wanna have to send you to collections" is a direct quote), it left a sour taste in my mouth. If they had approached me and said "Hey, we're so sorry, we just now caught this billing error," it would've been easier to stomach... or even better if they ate the loss as a learning lesson for their billing department. Since three years has passed, I don't have the paper trail to know why this amount wasn't paid - it was $220 compared to the $3800 I did pay, by the way. They said they've tried to contact me about it since, but I have no record of that. I'm not sure why they're just now asking for it - new management? Financial trouble? While the original service on my chimney was good, the handling of this situation has left me disappointed and reluctant to use or recommend them in the future. read more

Oregon Chimney re-pointed our fireplace chimney on 2001-03-18. Their competitors asked a far higher price. It's now lasted 25 years, with no visible degradation in the appearance. I'd say we got a great deal! read more

Oregon Chimney was outstanding. I needed to put on a new roof on my rental. The roofing company would not put the new roof on until I had my leaning Chimney of NE Portland fixed. Oregon Chimney was prompt, did exactly what I asked, cleaned up everything. And were fast. I asked to save the bricks they took off and they did, plus stacked them in the garage. I could not have been more pleased! When I took a check to their office I also took a couple dozen donuts to thank them for the excellent care I received. And to top it all off, they were very reasonably priced. read more

Great communication and quick repair! I got a custom cap added to my older home and Oregon Chimney was great.

I asked Oregon Chimney Repair to seal a chimney that was no longer being used. They did so promptly without leaving a trace. There service was timely and professional. read more

The interaction, the work were all really good quality and easy to work with, however, I don't recommend redoing your chimney when a rain storm is coming or it's raining outside because even though I have a brand new chimney... looking at it from the street it doesn't look brand new. read more

Since I used online reviews like Yelp, Google, and Nextdoor as one of the reasons I chose Oregon Chimney to do my chimney repair I feel obligated to post an honest review with pictures of the unprofessional work done by Oregon Chimney. Online reviews only work when folks post the good the bad and the ugly. You get to decide which one this is. I wouldn't recommend Oregon Chimney at all. The mason crew they send out (Rene et al) tried to scam me and rip me off. I paid $7000 for a full chimney tear down to the roof line(plus some shoulder work and re-tuck pointing of the lower portion of the chimney below the roof line). I left in the morning shortly after they arrived when they were just starting to tear down the old chimney. When I came back ~2 hours later they were magically already almost done with the entire rebuild? You could tell by the poor quality of their work that they only took the old chimney down about 1/2 way to the roof line and then haphazardly started to rebuild before I returned. The part they did rebuild looked horrible. It had inconsistent, non uniform, oversized and wandering tuck point joints of different sizes. Also instead of being square like the old chimney was it flared out toward the top and was slowly getting wider from where they started 1/2 way down to the top. In addition the new flashing they used looked horrible as it had excess visible caulking and was high profile and sticking out looking very unprofessional. Further more the "shoulders" of the chimney had sloppy mason work and they didn't even clean up the old joints before they put a sloppy coat of mortar on top. Oregon Chimney has multiple mason crews and it seems there is no accountability to the customers for the work they are sent out to do on their behalf. In my case there was no inspections, evaluation, documentation, or photos taken of the work done to be reviewed by Oregon Chimney management? I wonder how many other unsuspecting customers Rene also did this to. I doubt I was the first one. Was the owner of Oregon Chimney even aware of this situation? Honestly I am surprise the owner or someone else didn't reach out to me directly after I sent in the photos of the unprofessional work done by Oregon Chimney. Instead I had to call several times to even get a response at all, and then it was only a lackluster text response. The employee who was text messaging me (Charlene) also has horrible customer service skills and basically said that Oregon Chimney doesn't operate like that when I called them out for trying to scam me and not do the work that I paid in full for. The only reason I even got a response from them was because I sent them a Certified letter letting them know that I was going to file a complaint with the Oregon CCB (which is required by OCCB). Charlene's initial response was asking me to pay more money ($800) for them to come and clean up the work they did do...I'm not kidding. I have text messages from them proving this. They also said the poor quality of work they did do was because they reused the old bricks! When asked why they didn't do the full tear down to the roof line like I paid for Charlene said they had photos they would provide showing me that they did indeed do a full tear down. Of course they never provided these alleged photos because Rene never took any and they never did the full tear down to the roof line, instead only going about half way down (on a rather tall chimney I might add). Eventually(after I sent them the certified letter stating I was going to file a complaint with the Oregon Contractors Certification Board) they did say they would redo the work and rebuild the chimney like my contract that I paid in full for explicitly stated. However they wanted to send Rene and the same crew out to do the second rebuild! I said that was completely unacceptable and I needed an entire different and better crew do the new work. After the second crew was finished with the redo/rework I had requested someone come and inspect and review the new chimney rework with me when done. When their lead mason Jeff arrived he had absolutely nothing to say about the work. Barely spoke to me at all. Literally no comments on what was redone. Didn't discuss what the second mason crew did, redo, fixed or anything? I did all the talking. No one from Oregon Chimney ever apologized or thanked me for being patient and understanding and willing to work with them. In fact they wouldn't even acknowledge that their previous mason Rene tried to rip me off and scam me. I could go on and on about this horrible experience. Ive got receipts, photos, and text messages to back up my review. I gave them a generous 2 stars only because they did come out eventually and redo the chimney work and it was at least adequate/acceptable the second time. Otherwise I would have given them 0/1 star review (which is what they deserve for the experience I received. read more

I had two chimneys that needed repointing and got multiple bids for the work, all from companies highly rated on Yelp. Oregon Chimney gave me the best price by far and did excellent work. They showed up when they said they would, did a really nice job and cleaned up nicely when they were done. The office staff was also great, prompt and courteous. read more

Our chimney was built in 1936 and we felt it was time to clean it or have it checked. We decided to go with Paramount chimney repair our Oregon chimney repair in Portland. They finished our job in two days had to tear down the old chimney to the roof line and put in a new one they were on time, tidy and pleasant to work with. We recommend them highly! Thank you DaQuan and Hayden you're great and job well done. read more

I am very happy I went with Oregon Chimney. Jeff (the Rep) and Siraj (The crew lead) are very professional and do wonderful work. I had two chimneys replaced and I am very happy. And when we experienced a small "bump in the road" along the way, Jeff stepped up to the plate and took care of it. I highly recommend them. read more

I hired this company to rebuild my crumbling chimney. I had a really good experience from start to finish. Professional, knowledgeable and tidy. Every member of the team went the extra mile to get the job done. They even refunded promptly for work that ultimately wasn't needed. My rain damper from the old chimney was newer and didn't need to be replaced. The new chimney is really beautiful and I'll try to add a picture later. I would not hesitate to recommend them. 100% satisfied. read more

My 7 year old roof developed a leak at the chimney area. A roofing company provided a temporary fix. I obtained the services of a highly rated home inspector who confirmed that the roof needed to be replaced and so did the chimney counter flashing. He recommended Oregon Chimney. They came out immediately to assess and give me a quote for repair. I accepted the bid, as it was very reasonable and their company had excellent reviews. My roofing company was very accommodating (I needed to get back to an ill family member) and so was Oregon Chimney. Even though their schedule was pretty full, they worked me in. Roof work was completed on a Friday, and Oregon Chimney did their repair that following Monday morning. Later, a friend inspected the repair and reported it was done well. It is a relief to find, not just a competent company, but one that is kind and easy to do business with. They get all my future chimney work. read more

Wish I could have rated on an actual visit, but after making an appointment for 2 sweeps and possible repair 2 weeks in advance, they never showed up. Called them several times, and was repeatedly told, they are running a bit behind and shoulds be there soon. 4 hours later, I cancelled... ridiculous. read more

I asked for a quote and OR Chimney sent one of their techs out. Said he needed to get the quote approved first by someone in the office then they would send it to me to approve and sign. They had it reviewed and sent to me with a contract to sign. I looked it over and signed it and sent it back to them. I called to schedule the work and I was told they needed to review the job again. A few days later someone else came out to assess the chimney again and I was sent an updated quote of $2000 more than the original quote on the job. When I sent an email asking for someone to call me about this I didn't receive a reply or call. I'm still scratching my head over this one! read more

These guys are fantastic. They came out and looked at my ancient chimney (house built in 1905!), got up on the roof and checked all around, and gave me a very reasonable quote to overhaul the whole thing. Not only that, but they were able to squeeze me into the schedule much faster than they initially thought. The two guys who came out were great, they explained what was up, listened to my questions, were willing to accomodate things I needed, and did a great job. In the end they tuckpointed about a third to a half of the chimney, put a new cap on, managed to remove the old rusted-shut flue, and replaced it with a brand-new shiny one that WORKS. Magical, to be sure. Would totally recommend them, and definitely will call them again when I need my old furnace stack removed. Thanks so much! read more

We had a chimney leak that another firm could not fix. Oregon Chimney responded promptly to my request for a site visit and provided a no cost proposal. After cleaning and sealing the concrete chimney cap, the leak persisted, and they were responsive to coming back and doing additional work as required. They scheduled the work and called the day before to confirm. Good experience. read more

I don't recommend this company. I was an old employee of this company, I can tell that these guys do not follow many OSHA regulation or rules. When they grind out a chimney they don't use proper methods sanctioned by OSHA to ensure the customers and there neighbors do not get Silica or asbestos read more

Got their flyer for a free quote and had them over to check things out. We didn't end up needing anything done but the guy who came out was super helpful and honest. If we needed work in the future, we would definitely use them! read more

Quick to respond, and extremely friendly. We appreciated that they took care of our home and with a smile. Highly recommend this company!!!

The pictures I attached give you a good idea of how poor their workmanship is. They also left pounds of debris in my gutters. Didn't finish on time. In the end, I had to hire a respectable company to clean up their work. Beware. read more

Prompt & Professional Used Oregon Chimney for an inspection of a crack in our wood burning fireplace insert (heat shield). Great communication from the office scheduling staff, and on the day of service, I was called to see if the technician (Jeremy) could come earlier as he was ahead of schedule. He was at the house five minutes later, and quickly determined that the crack was not an issue. I genuinely appreciate that he didn't look at the situation as a sales opportunity. Jeremy told me what to look for in the future, and explained the way these fireplaces are built. I expected to pay a service call fee, but Jeremy mentioned that they offer free estimates. I would have gladly paid for the call, but he politely declined. Definitely recommend Oregon Chimney! read more

The whole team at Oregon Chimney was amazing from Jeff's bid and information he shared before I started the work, to the team who built 2 chimneys for me in 4 days. They deserve a shout out Jorge, Eddie, Rigo, Zab, Bryan, Isabella, they never stopped working, always answered my daily morning questions.. Jorge even finished my main chimney with an Art Deco design to blend with the base of my chimney which was built in 1929, I did not ask for this feature but this shows how dedicated they are to getting it right and make their work stand out. Well done.!! They cleaned up everything including gutters, ground, roof. Amazing... My neighbors have asked for business cards so that says a lot. Thank you for being a honest company I can't thank you enough. I will recommend you for sure. read more

Update: the technician gave me a foot of free rock wool to try to plug up a gap myself. I did, and it fixed the problem. Still have not been charged- he just had it in his van. Probably the best experience I've ever had with a contractor in Portland. Would recommend this group to anyone. read more

They were recommended to me and I highly recommend them to you. You wont be sorry read more

We hired Oregon Chimney to repair an exterior chimney that had been ignored by prior homeowners. Rusty Fisher came out and was very helpful, giving us advice on various ways to repair and improve it while keeping to a budget. Rusty is the masonry supervisor and he and his crew did a great job rebuilding the chimney and even making sure that the bricks they used matched the old ones. Highly recommend this company for their friendly professionalism and competitive prices. read more

Oregon Chimney came to inspect our chimney and it ended up being a very simple repair. They serviced us with just what was needed.

Needed the top of my chimney rebuilt. It was so refreshing to have a company respond in a timely manner, show up when they said they would, provide the skilled labor needed for the job and when completed the job, left the construction site cleaner than when they had arrived. Efficient, seamless and competitive in their price. Well done read more

I don't know about this company as I've never used them and never will if their drivers are any indication of how they conduct their business. At 2:30 pm this afternoon I was nearly run off the road and into a medium by one of their trucks that wanted into my lane. His maneuver was entirely unnecessary as there were no cars for half a block behind me yet he needed to be in front of me. I honked but there appeared to be no awareness by the driver of my presence. I can only wonder if he was impaired in some way and would have called the police if I'd had a hands free device to do so. This occurred on Cesar Chevas Blvd in NE Portland. Terrible way to advertise for their business. read more

We've used this company before for a fireplace insert removal about 6 years ago. Good service then & good service recently when we called to get our chimney serviced (preventative maintenance). The tech came out & did a good job & was careful to leave no mess. read more

I have been using this company for years on rental properties that I manage for my clients and Oregon Chimney has always done a superb job!

I highly recommend this company to anyone needing any type of chimney work. read more

I do not recommend this company at all, I bought a home and they came out to my home and did a inspection, they missed many things, the mortar is all cracked and the Chimney needs to be sealed, I have water seeping into my house and I can not get a return phone call. They also supposedly cleaned my fireplace and fixed the damper, I am still unable to you my fireplaces... beware before you choose Oregon Chimney... read more
