    Cleaning & Sweeping - A clean chimney isn’t a luxury—it’s a safety essential. Each time you burn wood or use your fireplace, byproducts like creosote, soot, and ash accumulate inside the flue. Over time, these materials can restrict airflow, reduce system efficiency, and create a serious fire hazard. That’s why professional chimney sweeping is one of the most important home maintenance tasks you can schedule. At Rooftop Chimney Sweeps, we provide expert chimney cleaning and sweeping services that keep your fireplace system safe, efficient, and ready to use. Whether you use your fireplace every day during the winter or just a few times a year, regular cleanings are the best way to protect your home and family from hidden risks. What’s Included in a Chimney Cleaning At Rooftop Chimney Sweeps, chimney sweeping isn’t just about brushing out soot. Our comprehensive cleaning service includes: Thorough Flue Brushing – We use professional-grade rods and brushes to remove soot, creosote, and debris from the flue interior. Firebox Cleaning – Ash and soot are cleaned out from the firebox floor and walls to restore functionality and cleanliness. Smoke Chamber & Shelf Cleaning – These key areas are cleared to improve draft and eliminate dangerous buildup. Damper Cleaning – We remove soot buildup from the damper and check for proper movement and sealing. Cap & Crown Check – If accessible, we inspect and brush off the chimney cap or screen to ensure it's free of debris or animal nests. System Function Check – We test the draft, check airflow, and visually inspect for signs of internal damage, moisture, or blockages. Our team uses drop cloths, HEPA vacuums, and protective gear to ensure your home stays clean and dust-free throughout the entire process. No mess, no stress—just a safe, clean chimney. How Often Should You Clean Your Chimney? The answer depends on how often you use your fireplace and what kind of fuel you burn: Wood-burning fireplaces: At least once per year—or after every cord of wood burned. Gas fireplaces: Should be inspected yearly to ensure proper venting and clean-burning. Pellet stoves or inserts: Should be cleaned once every 1–2 tons of pellets used. Oil-burning systems: Often require chimney sweeping once per year during heating system maintenance. Even if you haven’t used your fireplace recently, wildlife nests, moisture, and decay can still affect chimney function. Regular inspections and sweeps are essential even for occasional users. Signs You May Need a Chimney Cleaning Not sure if it’s time to schedule a sweep? Look out for these signs: Strong odor coming from the fireplace Black soot marks on walls or ceiling near the hearth Difficulty starting or maintaining a fire Poor airflow or smoke backing into the room Visible creosote buildup or debris in the firebox Animal sounds or nests in the flue It’s been more than 12 months since your last cleaning If you’re experiencing any of these issues, it’s time to book your chimney cleaning with Rooftop Chimney Sweeps. Why Homeowners Trust Rooftop Chimney Sweeps We’ve been keeping chimneys clean and safe since 1978. Our certified chimney sweeps have helped thousands of homeowners across Virginia and Washington, D.C. enjoy safer, more reliable fireplaces. Combine Cleaning with a Safety Inspection In most cases, we recommend pairing your chimney sweep with a Level 1 inspection—a basic check of all accessible parts of your chimney and fireplace. This helps ensure that your system isn’t just clean, but also structurally sound and safe to use. We also offer more advanced Level 2 inspections (with camera scope) if you’re buying a new home, changing fuel types, or have experienced a chimney fire or storm damage. Keep Your Chimney in Peak Condition Chimney sweeping isn’t just about preventing fires—it’s about keeping your fireplace working better, longer, and more efficiently. A clean chimney produces better draft, reduces smoke and odor, and helps your wood or gas fuel burn cleaner. It’s one of the most cost-effective ways to extend the life of your fireplace and avoid expensive repairs down the road. Don’t wait for buildup to become a problem. Schedule your next chimney cleaning with Rooftop Chimney Sweeps and breathe easier knowing your system is clean, clear, and safe to use. 📞 Call now or book online to get started.

    Masonry Repair - Brick by brick, your chimney is one of the most important—and most exposed—structures on your home. But over time, harsh weather, water intrusion, and natural wear and tear can cause that brickwork to crack, crumble, or shift. When that happens, your chimney isn’t just unsightly—it’s unsafe. At Rooftop Chimney Sweeps, we specialize in professional chimney masonry repair services that restore your chimney’s structural integrity, function, and curb appeal. Whether it’s minor tuckpointing or a full section rebuild, we have the tools, training, and experience to handle it with care. Why Chimney Masonry Fails Your chimney is constantly battling the elements. Unlike siding or roofing, chimney brickwork is exposed on all sides—taking the full brunt of rain, snow, heat, humidity, and freeze-thaw cycles. Over time, moisture seeps into the mortar joints and bricks, slowly wearing them down. In Virginia and Washington, D.C., where seasonal weather shifts are common, this kind of deterioration is even more frequent. As mortar softens and bricks absorb water, the structure weakens—leading to visible damage and hidden hazards. Here’s what typically causes masonry failure: Freeze-thaw expansion – Water gets trapped in the bricks or joints and expands when frozen, causing cracks or spalling. Poor construction or materials – Cheap mortar or improper brick placement accelerates deterioration. Chimney leaks – A damaged crown or missing flashing leads to water damage deep inside the masonry. Age and settling – Even a well-built chimney needs occasional masonry maintenance as it settles and shifts over decades. Lack of maintenance – Small cracks ignored for years can quickly spread and cause major structural issues. Whatever the cause, we’re here to restore your chimney’s strength and safety with expert repairs that last. Signs You Need Chimney Masonry Repair You don’t have to climb onto the roof to spot the signs. Here are some of the most common indicators: Cracks running through bricks or mortar Loose, crumbling, or missing bricks White powdery stains (efflorescence) on the chimney face Spalling—flaking or popping brick surfaces Mortar joints eroded or missing entirely Leaning or uneven chimney structure Water leaks or dampness around the fireplace If you see any of these issues, it’s time to schedule an inspection with Rooftop Chimney Sweeps. Our Masonry Repair Services We provide a full range of chimney masonry repair services, tailored to your chimney’s condition, size, and materials: 🔧 Tuckpointing (Repointing) This involves carefully removing deteriorated mortar joints and replacing them with fresh, color-matched mortar to restore strength and appearance. Tuckpointing is ideal for preventing structural collapse, stopping water infiltration, and extending your chimney’s life. 🧱 Brick Replacement If your chimney has spalled, cracked, or missing bricks, we can remove and replace them with new bricks that match in size, color, and texture. This protects the chimney’s structure and improves the look of your home. 🔨 Crown Rebuilding We fix masonry crowns by pouring new concrete crowns with the proper slope, drip edge, and overhang to shed water away from the chimney’s sides. 🧩 Structural Reinforcement In cases where settling or severe damage has compromised the chimney, we reinforce the structure with modern materials that blend seamlessly with the original design. 🌧️ Masonry Waterproofing After repairs, we apply breathable, professional-grade waterproofing sealant that prevents future water damage while allowing moisture inside the bricks to escape. No matter the scope, our work is precise, professional, and designed to last. Why Choose Rooftop Chimney Sweeps?

    Chimney Repairs - A damaged chimney isn’t just an eyesore—it’s a serious threat to your home’s safety and energy efficiency. Whether it’s cracked bricks, deteriorating mortar, or a crumbling crown, even minor issues can lead to major problems like water damage, poor ventilation, or fire hazards. At Rooftop Chimney Sweeps, we provide expert chimney repair services that restore your system’s integrity and help protect your home for years to come. Why Chimney Repairs Matter Many homeowners don’t realize that their chimney is one of the most vulnerable parts of their home’s exterior. Constant exposure to rain, snow, wind, and temperature swings causes masonry to deteriorate over time. Once damage begins, it can spread quickly—and silently. Moisture can seep into bricks and mortar joints, causing freeze-thaw cycles that widen cracks and weaken structural integrity. Left unchecked, small cracks can turn into costly rebuilds. That’s why we always recommend early intervention. Our team at Rooftop Chimney Sweeps specializes in identifying even the smallest signs of chimney damage and providing targeted, lasting repairs. From fixing hairline cracks in the crown to repointing mortar joints and sealing the flue, we handle it all. Signs You May Need Chimney Repair You don’t need to be a chimney expert to recognize when something’s wrong. If you notice any of the following, it may be time to give us a call: Cracked or missing bricks Loose or crumbling mortar Rusted damper or fireplace components Leaning chimney stack Water stains on walls or ceilings near your fireplace Efflorescence (white staining) on the chimney exterior A musty smell coming from the fireplace Loose or missing chimney cap or crown These issues might seem cosmetic at first, but they’re often early warning signs of deeper damage. Prompt repairs can prevent the need for more extensive work down the line. What Our Chimney Repair Services Include We take a comprehensive approach to chimney repair. Every service starts with a thorough inspection using advanced tools to assess both visible and hidden damage. Based on our findings, we’ll recommend one or more of the following services: Tuckpointing: Removing and replacing damaged mortar joints to restore the strength and appearance of your masonry. Brick Replacement: Swapping out spalled or cracked bricks with matching new ones for a seamless, sturdy finish. Crown Repair & Rebuilding: Fixing or replacing the concrete crown that seals the top of the chimney to prevent water infiltration. Flue Repair: Addressing issues inside the chimney flue that affect ventilation, safety, and efficiency. Waterproofing: Applying breathable sealants that protect the chimney from future water damage without trapping moisture inside. Structural Reinforcement: Stabilizing leaning or shifting chimneys to ensure they remain safe and secure. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all fixes. Every chimney we work on is treated with the personalized care it deserves. Trusted by Homeowners Since 1978 Rooftop Chimney Sweeps has built a reputation for quality chimney services since 1978.

    Chimney Rebuild - Some chimney problems go beyond simple repairs. When your chimney has suffered significant structural damage—or has deteriorated beyond the point of patchwork fixes—a full or partial rebuild may be necessary to restore safety and performance. That’s where we come in. At Rooftop Chimney Sweeps, we specialize in professional chimney rebuilding services that blend skilled masonry craftsmanship with modern construction standards. Whether your chimney is crumbling, leaning, or failing due to years of water damage or age, we’re here to restore it to peak condition with durable, code-compliant results. What Is a Chimney Rebuild? A chimney rebuild is exactly what it sounds like—reconstructing all or part of the chimney’s structure. This may involve rebuilding the chimney from the roofline up (a partial rebuild) or from the ground up (a full rebuild), depending on the extent of the damage. In many cases, we’re able to preserve parts of the original structure while reinforcing and replacing only the compromised components. Rebuilds are typically needed when the chimney is: Leaning or shifting due to foundation issues Missing large sections of brick or mortar Severely cracked or spalling Suffering from long-term water penetration Built with inferior materials or poor craftsmanship Deemed unsafe by an inspection or fire marshal We also perform rebuilds when homeowners are renovating, updating their fireplace systems, or switching to a different fuel type that requires internal structural changes. Signs Your Chimney May Need to Be Rebuilt It’s not always easy to tell from the ground whether your chimney needs to be repaired or rebuilt. Here are some signs that could indicate serious structural issues: Significant leaning or tilting Large vertical or horizontal cracks Loose or missing bricks near the base or upper stack Water leaks around the chimney, especially after rain Mortar joints eroding faster than normal Pieces of brick falling onto the roof Chimney has no cap or crown and has been exposed to the elements for years If you notice any of these red flags, it’s important to schedule a chimney inspection as soon as possible. What seems like a cosmetic issue could actually pose a safety risk. Our Chimney Rebuild Process We approach chimney rebuilds with careful planning, transparent communication, and time-tested techniques. Our process typically includes: Inspection & Evaluation – We conduct a full chimney assessment, using both visual checks and internal camera inspections if needed. Custom Rebuild Plan – Based on the findings, we’ll outline the scope of the rebuild—whether it’s partial, full, or isolated to a specific area. Material Matching – We source bricks, mortar, and finishes that closely match your home’s existing materials for a seamless look. Reconstruction – Our experienced masons rebuild the chimney using best-in-class techniques to ensure structural integrity and code compliance. Crown, Cap & Flashing – We install a new crown, chimney cap, and flashing to prevent future water intrusion and weather-related damage. Clean Finish & Inspection – Once the rebuild is complete, we clean the worksite and perform a final inspection for safety and quality assurance. We handle all permitting, code compliance, and safety checks, so you can rest easy knowing the job is done right. Partial vs. Full Chimney Rebuilds Not every chimney requires a complete teardown. Here’s a quick breakdown of what you might need: Partial Rebuild: If the chimney is sound below the roofline but deteriorating above it, we can often perform a partial rebuild of the stack. Full Rebuild: When the entire structure is compromised—either due to foundation issues, fire damage, or extreme aging—a full rebuild is the safest solution. We’ll explain the difference clearly and help you choose the right path for your chimney’s condition and your budget. Why Trust Rooftop Chimney Sweeps? Rooftop Chimney Sweeps has been a trusted name in chimney service since 1978. We’ve rebuilt hundreds of chimneys across Virginia and Washington, D.C., and are known for our attention to detail, skilled workmanship, and commitment to customer satisfaction.

    Fireplace Liner Installation - The liner inside your chimney might be out of sight—but it should never be out of mind. Your fireplace liner is a critical component of your chimney system, protecting your home from heat, smoke, and toxic gases. If it's damaged, improperly sized, or missing altogether, your chimney could pose a serious fire hazard. At Rooftop Chimney Sweeps, we specialize in professional fireplace liner installation throughout Virginia and Washington, D.C. Whether you're upgrading a deteriorated liner, bringing your chimney up to code, or converting to a new fuel source, our certified technicians will install a liner system that ensures long-term safety and performance. What Is a Fireplace Liner—and Why Is It Important? A chimney liner (also called a flue liner) is a tube or casing inside your chimney that safely directs combustion byproducts—smoke, heat, and gases—up and out of your home. Liners are essential for: Protecting Combustible Materials – They prevent high heat from damaging nearby wood framing or drywall. Improving Fireplace Efficiency – Proper airflow enhances draft and ensures clean-burning fires. Reducing Creosote Buildup – Liners minimize soot and debris sticking to chimney walls. Containing Carbon Monoxide – They prevent deadly gases from seeping into your living space. Complying with Code – Most modern building codes require lined chimneys for all wood, gas, and oil appliances. If your chimney is unlined, has a damaged clay tile liner, or is venting an appliance it wasn’t designed for, a new liner isn’t just recommended—it’s essential. Signs You May Need a New Chimney Liner Many chimney liner problems are hidden until they become dangerous. Watch for these signs: Crumbling clay tiles in the firebox Smoke backing into your home Poor fireplace draft or frequent smoke odors Unexplained moisture or condensation in the firebox Flue too large or small for your appliance Visible gaps, cracks, or corrosion in the flue (found during inspection) Upgrading to a gas or high-efficiency appliance If you've had a chimney fire, storm damage, or are unsure about your liner’s condition, schedule a professional inspection immediately. Our Fireplace Liner Installation Services Rooftop Chimney Sweeps installs high-quality liner systems tailored to your home, fireplace type, and fuel source. Our process includes: Inspection & Sizing – We inspect your existing flue, measure for proper airflow and appliance compatibility, and determine the right liner material. Flue Cleaning & Prep – Before installation, we remove creosote, soot, and any flue debris to ensure a clean, secure fit. Custom Liner Installation – We install stainless steel or cast-in-place liners designed to handle extreme temperatures and corrosive byproducts. Secure Termination & Cap – We anchor the liner to the top of the chimney and install a cap to protect against moisture and animals. Smoke & Draft Testing – We confirm proper draft and airtight function before completing the job. We install liners for wood-burning fireplaces, gas fireplaces, oil appliances, wood stoves, and furnace flues. Types of Liners We Offer: Stainless Steel Liners – Durable, corrosion-resistant, and ideal for relining older or damaged chimneys. Available in rigid and flexible formats. Cast-In-Place Liners – Lightweight concrete or ceramic coatings that seal old tile liners and improve insulation. Clay Tile Liners (For New Construction) – Traditional, long-lasting option when properly installed during a masonry chimney build. Why Rooftop Chimney Sweeps? With decades of experience serving Virginia and Washington, D.C., Rooftop Chimney Sweeps is a trusted name in fireplace safety and chimney care. Homeowners turn to us because: We’re Certified Experts – Our technicians are trained in liner sizing, venting science, and local code compliance.

We provide expert fireplace repair services for homeowners throughout Virginia and Washington, D.C. Our certified technicians are trained to handle a wide range of fireplace problems—from small cosmetic issues to serious structural and ventilation concerns. No matter the problem, we’ll get your fireplace working safely, efficiently, and beautifully again. Why Fireplace Repair Matters A faulty fireplace isn’t just inconvenient—it can be dangerous. Cracks in the firebox, loose bricks, malfunctioning dampers, and poor drafting all increase your risk of smoke damage, carbon monoxide exposure, and even fire. That’s why it’s critical to address issues as soon as they arise. Routine maintenance and timely repairs also help prolong the life of your fireplace system, improve heating performance, and reduce your energy bills by preventing heat loss through the chimney. Common Fireplace Problems We Fix Our team has seen—and solved—it all. Here are some of the most common fireplace repair issues we handle: Cracked Firebox Panels or Masonry – These can allow dangerous gases and heat to escape into your home’s walls. Damaged or Rusted Dampers – A malfunctioning damper affects draft control, letting cold air in or smoke out into your room. Smoke Backup or Poor Draft – Often caused by obstructions, improper flue size, or air pressure problems. Loose or Missing Firebricks – Firebricks protect the structure of your fireplace and need to be secure and intact. Stained or Damaged Fireplace Face – Years of soot and heat exposure can cause unsightly staining or tile/brick damage. Pilot Light or Ignition Failure (Gas Fireplaces) – For gas units, these mechanical components may need repair or replacement. Improper Flue Operation – The flue must open and close correctly to control smoke and airflow. Water Damage – Leaks from the chimney can cause interior brick, mortar, and fireplace components to rot or degrade. We repair both masonry fireplaces and prefabricated (factory-built) fireplaces, with parts and tools tailored to each system. Our Fireplace Repair Services Every repair begins with a full system inspection to determine the exact cause of the issue. From there, we’ll recommend the most effective, long-lasting solution. Our services include: 🔧 Firebox Restoration We repair and replace damaged firebox panels, bricks, and mortar joints to restore safety and efficiency. We also address heat damage and moisture-related deterioration. 🧱 Tuckpointing & Rebuilding If the interior masonry is compromised, we carefully remove and replace mortar joints or bricks to stabilize the structure. 🔥 Damper Repair & Replacement We fix stuck, rusted, or warped dampers to ensure smooth airflow and proper fireplace performance. 🌫️ Smoke & Draft Correction From resizing flues to modifying smoke shelves or installing top-sealing dampers, we fix the root cause of draft and smoke problems. 🔩 Gas Fireplace Repairs We service gas burners, pilot lights, thermocouples, ignition systems, and glass doors to restore safe, reliable operation. 💧 Moisture Damage Repair Water inside your chimney can destroy internal components. We remove damaged materials, dry the system, and seal it against future leaks. No matter the repair, we prioritize code compliance, long-term safety, and top-tier craftsmanship. When to Call for Fireplace Repairs Not sure if your fireplace needs professional attention? Here are some signs it’s time to give us a call: You smell smoke even when the fire is out Smoke fills the room instead of going up the chimney Cold air is coming in through the fireplace You see cracks in the firebox or masonry Gas fireplace won’t ignite or stay lit You notice water, rust, or moisture in or around the unit It’s been years since your fireplace was inspected Even if your fireplace “looks fine,” hidden issues can lurk behind the scenes. A quick inspection can prevent costly repairs later on. Ready to Enjoy Your Fireplace Again? Don’t wait until it’s freezing outside—or you have a living room full of smoke. If your fireplace isn’t working the way it should, Rooftop Chimney Sweeps is ready to help.

Although we haven't determined it our old system is repairable or not, I want to point out that Terry was not at all the typical high-pressure salesman and suggested what could be a substantial savings. Just thought I'd share our positive experience.

This fee was…read morenot communicated to me in advance, and only came to my attention after I began receiving calls from the accounting department requesting payment. I had assumed (incorrectly) that the initial inspection was complimentary. The technicians who visited my home were professional, knowledgeable, and spent approximately 30 minutes taking measurements and inspecting the chimney cap. However, they left only a handwritten sheet with basic dimensions and no clear documentation of costs or next steps. The invoice was sent two days later from an unfamiliar email address that did not identify the company or the technicians, which added to the confusion. Finally, the companies accounting department reached out, leaving multiple voicemails to address payment due. When I called to address the charge, I expressed my concerns about the lack of upfront communication. The accounting representative was polite and apologetic, and I do believe the company values customer service, however, there was a clear shortfall in transparency regarding pricing. Given the unexpected inspection fee, as well as the high estimates for additional work and concerns about communication, I have decided to pursue services with a company that places a stronger emphasis on clear and upfront pricing.

The appointment day came and the technician came out. I don't know much about gas fireplaces, we always had wood when I grew up.

Eurotech had put in a furnaces for us in a rental property this winter, so we gave them a call. One of their guys showed up within an hour of his stated arrival time. He took the cover off of the outside unit and did some testing while I watched. Unfortunately, I needed to leave so the rest of his inspection was done without my spouse watching. His diagnosis was we needed a "switch" and a fan motor which was $800, but the unit was old and we should get a new unit for $4200. When we asked if he had anything in the $3000 range, he needed to check with his office and would get back to us in a day or two. When we didn't hear back, we did a little search on YouTube and saw that the "switch" he spoke of was a capacitor ($12 locally) and that the fan motor was $120 locally. It took me about 40 minutes to install the two items. The fan would then run whenever we turned on the unit. The bad part was the air from the vents was warm. We call company 2 the next morning. Guy comes out, listens to what happened, takes a look at the unit and says that the oil on the base is a pretty clear indication that "some how" all the freon has leaked out of the system. Maybe the loose valve "just happened" to start leaking when the Eurotech person left. Less than one hour later, valve is replaced, system charged with freon, and the house is nice and cool. Still no call back from Eurotech.

My answer was, "if your crew damages any parts of my property, then I expect you to fix it. I don't want to come home and discover something is broken and the crew didn't bother to take responsibility". The owner was ok with that so we engaged in a service contract. I've had several problems this past year including weeds in my lawn and in my beds, a broken landscaping light from a tractor running it over, and broken sprinkler piping from when aeration occurred. I had to call to get these issues resolved. Not good. My service contract says that weeding is part of my service. I never saw any of the crew address weed issues on my property (until I called them out on it). My contract also says that they would prune my shrubs/trees. Being that all my landscaping was all brand new, I didn't need any pruning... but still was I was paying for a service I wasn't getting. My contract also said I could expect to have my lawn mowed about once per week. They mowed about half that amount. So, essentially I paid $280 per month EVERY month whether they worked or not. Considering I haven't seen them from Sept to April, it's not a good deal. I'll update this review next season if my landscaping looks the way it should if I renew.

    Be aware that the initial consultation to provide an estimate may cost $150 or more. This fee was…read morenot communicated to me in advance, and only came to my attention after I began receiving calls from the accounting department requesting payment. I had assumed (incorrectly) that the initial inspection was complimentary. The technicians who visited my home were professional, knowledgeable, and spent approximately 30 minutes taking measurements and inspecting the chimney cap. However, they left only a handwritten sheet with basic dimensions and no clear documentation of costs or next steps. The invoice was sent two days later from an unfamiliar email address that did not identify the company or the technicians, which added to the confusion. Finally, the companies accounting department reached out, leaving multiple voicemails to address payment due. When I called to address the charge, I expressed my concerns about the lack of upfront communication. The accounting representative was polite and apologetic, and I do believe the company values customer service, however, there was a clear shortfall in transparency regarding pricing. Given the unexpected inspection fee, as well as the high estimates for additional work and concerns about communication, I have decided to pursue services with a company that places a stronger emphasis on clear and upfront pricing.

    I'm surprised that this company hasn't "claimed" their business spot on here; but I'm going to…read morereview their fine work anyway... ‍ The first estimate that was given to us was by one of the "mega-companies" that one sees constantly on TV commercials- and I about blew a brain seal! - $25,000??!! My lord! Did they use tar paper with gold weave, or shingles made with Kevlar?? We had another estimate completed the following day; the price was less than the first, but the gentleman wanted to do a complete "Dog and Pony Show" presentation afterwards. Sorry, but I had to cut the first guy off from his song and dance saga early, and I didn't want another high-pressure sales attempt-- he wasn't too pleased, but he did email me the paperwork the following morning. I was totally prepared for yet a third turgid screed titled, "Our Roof Is Better Than Their Roof!" from anyone coming down the pike, but I'm happy to say that I didn't have that issue with C. L. Wright Roofing! Let me first say I'm not one to write reviews on every little thing, and I'm not trying to blow a ray of sunshine up anyone's pant leg with this one- they did a darn fine job, and they deserve a darn good review! Here is the service breakdown: * The gentleman arrived on time and was polite, with a no-nonsense attitude- being a veteran, I like that! * Within about thirty-five to forty minutes, he had a written estimate in my hand. It had a everything covered: the shingles, paper, the water damaged soffit and hosed gutter that need to be replaced, and a damaged 4' x 8' plywood board that was bad; (we were aware of these before hand) he also noted that the skylight that provided some daytime light to the attic was broken and leaking! Noted on the estimate was that other plywood pieces could be water damaged, and we'd be advised if anymore needed replacing and gave the price of each piece upfront. I did go to the main office and picked out a shingle color; Jo Anne was very helpful, and I was on my way in no time. * The crew arrived on time on the date stated a few weeks later; they were polite, and cleaned up the small stuff as they went. No cigarette butts or personal trash was ever noted, either. * The project was completed on the second day, and the supervisor arrived later that evening. He did a sweep of the property, picking up any remaining rouge construction trash or wrapping, then used a magnetic roller to pick up any nails or metal debris. Afterwards, my wife and I did a walk around the property with him making sure all was good to go-- and it was! The final cost: $6,700.00 That's a far call from the other companies! I can wholeheartedly give a 5 rating to this company, and would recommend them not only to family and friends, but to anyone else too. Thank you, John "Doc" Lykins EMT-Paramedic (Ret.)

The sales briefing Alex gave us was professional, detailed and he answered all our questions. Communication with him throughout the process was excellent. Now we have expensive Leaf Filters! We made it known that if anything happened to them during installation...we wanted them to be immediately repaired. Alex, wrote that addendum right into the contract on the spot. Some of the other contractors stepped around the issue which was a major problem for us. Thankfully, the crew didn't damage the gutters (that my son and I could detect) and they appear to have made it through the process. The crew arrived early and did a fantastic job. They repaired decking sections that needed (they didn't overlook it and keep going), took care not to trample my wife's plants. It was very windy today but they policed up all the debris to the last nail. The job was precise and looked beautiful. The crew was also very professional and polite. It was a pleasure to have them here. It you need a new roof...hire this outfit! You won't be sorry.

At the time, the issue appeared to…read morebe a failing plumbing vent stack fitting, which they repaired promptly and professionally. When the leak returned in February 2026 in the same area, we reached out under their warranty. Their technicians responded quickly, reassessed the situation, and determined that while the original repair had been done correctly, the true source of the leak was likely coming from an adjacent section. After removing a larger portion of shingles, they confirmed the cause and repaired it thoroughly. They also went a step further by addressing the interior water damage in our master bathroom ceiling, which was repaired with care and additional expertise. While no homeowner wants to deal with a recurring issue, Davidson handled the situation with professionalism, accountability, and clear communication throughout the process. We felt confident in their work and their commitment to making things right. We would absolutely use Davidson again for future roofing needs and would not hesitate to recommend them to others.

After conducting thorough independent research--including resources such as newhvacguide.com--I contacted multiple HVAC contractors. The process involved two principal challenges: the phase-out of R410A refrigerant effective January 2025, and the need to find a contractor with expertise in HVAC inverter technology. Airmaxx Mechanical distinguished itself with an informative website, and Josh stood out by taking the initiative to perform a Manual J calculation (unlike the others) without prompting. Furthermore, unlike other companies that dispatched only sales personnel, Josh personally oversaw the project and participated directly in the installation alongside his team. I also wish to acknowledge Keri for her exceptional efforts in sourcing the desired HVAC unit and her prompt, responsive communication regarding any inquiries.
