One of his guys cemented the hole back up after they removed a large brick that was blocking the whole. Aaron advised getting a carbon monoxide detector which we will soon. The chimney cap looks great and we are very grateful.

DO NOT HIRE! The damages they caused to our roof and property are extensive and they refused to…read moretake responsibility. They would not give their insurance information to cover their liability. What's worse is they were rude and disrespectful multiple times throughout our efforts to resolve the mess they made of our property. They let concrete splatter all over our new roof, the sidewalks, and the entryway. When they had an opportunity to clean it up they tried to blame us, the owners, because we needed to withhold payment to resolve their issue. Horrible experience with no accountability whatsoever. The fireplace insert was installed crooked and isn't secure. They didn't even wire the blower fan to work properly. In addition there were 3 boxes that came with the fireplace that were necessary for the installation we set up for them right at the opening and they didn't even open the boxes! Absolutely horrendous experience! Do not hire.

Being out of state, we used Yelp and read good things. Pricing wise, they were not the cheapest, but there is a reason. FireTec was super communicative on what we are to expect, and super responsive to questions. They called to confirm the day of appointment, and showed up on time, masks on, shoe covers, and armful of floor pads and coverings (more on this later. The tech came and was friendly, respectful of the COVID situation, and careful with our home. Every fireplace they worked on was meticulously prepared and protected to ensure no damage or dirt would get on our floor. During the visit, they even updated me on findings as they went along and also how they were going to charge me less than estimated as certain chimneys did not require the level of inspection requested or originally thought to be needed. At the end, 3 of our gas inserts needed new control modules as the batteries leaked and damaged the units. They showed me the issue and again were transparent on what was needed. Now, I could leave the review as is, but this is what going above call of service means. The tech, bothered with a small finding in the video inspection, called me back after he left asking if he could come back and recheck one of our chimney. I am glad he did, as he discovered that one of our fireplaces was blocked off by previous owner, and it was not safe to be used. Being a father with 2 kids in the house, this is the kind of service expected. FireTec ordered the new gas inserts control modules and called me much earlier than the scheduled appointment asking if I was available to get the gas inserts fixed with the new control modules. Apparently their tech was freed up and available. Fast forward, our fireplaces are clean, inspected for safety, and gas inserts working as expected. And as if that wasn't enough, they send a thank you card. This is how you are customer centric. It's hard, but not impossible!

After purchasing my first home that ever had a fireplace I called Al's (based on a friend's…read morerecommendation) to come out and inspect the fireplace and do a chimney cleaning. I was given a reasonable quote and was able to schedule him despite it being fall and the busiest time of year for a sweep. Al showed up a little early which is always nice. Al went straight to business inspecting the fire box, clean out, gas line to the assist, flue, and chimney caps. After about 10 mins Al asked told me the chimney was in good working order and didn't even need to be cleaned. Al's only suggestion was that I should replace my chimney caps in the spring. This all went by so fast and I was shocked to hear I didn't need a ton of repairs. Al couldn't have easily duped me into spending a lot of money, however, as a sure sign of his honesty he did not. When I asked Al what I owed him he said he wouldn't feel right charging me. There was no way I was not going to pay him for his time, but this gesture completely insured that I will only hire him in the future for chimney issues.

He gave me a plan on what he would do, and I could tell he knew his stuff by virtue of remedying causal factors for the leaning, including improper drainage. I also had him look at a 1957 original kitchen exhaust blower that was now a dead end and fall hazard, wanting it taken down -- which I couldn't do safely on my own -- and a frustrating area where water would come into my office when it rained hard with a lot of wind. Jim said all the right things, and I was very happy with his quote. He communicated well via email about when he could come. He and his crew showed up and did a fantastic job. They bricked in the gap where the exhaust came out, properly insulating and sealing as they did so, and painstakingly addressed the likely factors in the water intrusion. I would hire him again in a heartbeat. I wish I had had him work on my chimney a couple of years ago instead of a certain other company who overcharged me and reneged on a necessary service they had promised but carefully not included in the contract. He would have done a better job and charged me less.
