They even fit me in before Christmas ahead of schedule. Wasn't cheap but considering amount of work done I think it's been totally worth it. We've enjoyed several fires during this abnormally cold winter. Would recommend this company they know what they're doing.

I called again so that I could make an appointment for the work they said need to be done on the outside of our Chimney. Still waiting for a response. This is something that has to be done in warmer weather because of the bricks and outside Chimney work. I will update my review when the job is completed. Which includes setting up an appointment for the additional work need outside of my Chimney with the brick work. I do appreciate their honesty about for safety reasons to not use the fireplace.

I requested a quote for installation of my reclaimed solid walnut mantle shelf. I was quoted $300…read moremore than what I paid, $1,500.00, which was a pretty penny. Guy was nice because he looked around my home and saw money. When I received the quote and asked how long it would take, no response was given. Big red flag-shady. Did it myself for fifty bucks in materials, which included a $10 masonry bit (tool to use again), and it took three hours. Five hundred an hour is fifty dollars more than what I pay my lawyer. Save your money, choose another company Or do it yourself.

There was an initial mixup about the appointment time, but that was soon sorted, and Saul contacted me prior to his arrival and arrived on time. Quickly getting to work, he identified the problem with our gas insert. He was able to fix the immediate problem to return it to working order and then explained what was happening and why. He also provided what next steps would be for a more permanent solution. It was a very professional, friendly service call.

We needed some gas lines redirected, and Whistler was available quickly and offered a free quote…read more The employees were friendly and professional and pointed out some issues and made relevant suggestions. The work was agreed upon after we received the quote, and the service team were prompt and did an excellent job. These folks seem like honest businesspeople who don't try to upsell you. For disclosure, I also checked with Roto Rooter and they suggested a quote of $6,000 to redo everything, which was completely gratuitous. Roto Rooter was also incredibly rude over the phone and during my appointment window asked me do I still need someone to come out.

Steve and his team replaced our tired old gas log fireplace with a new, beautiful, full-enclosure gas fireplace. From the beginning of the project until the end, Steve and his team were friendly, courteous, prompt to reply, and genuinely took pride in their work. Steve made sure that at the end of the project, he was there to ensure that the inspection passed without any issues. He also made sure that we, as the customers, had an opportunity to ask any questions we had about the operation of the fireplace insert. Steve and his team also refreshed our 20+ year old gas lantern in the front yard, replacing the old mantle system with a beautiful gas flame and refinishing it from top to bottom. We could not recommend Steve the Fireplace Guy more highly. You will not regret selecting Steve over the competition.

We are satisfied with their work and happy with our fireplace.

I ordered a 14' x 24' shed and site prep from the Hardscape Store after searching for sheds for…read morewell over a year. I worked with Craig Flickinger, who deserves an extra special "shout-out" for his EXCEPTIONAL customer service and support. He came out to my house, advised the best place to set the shed, and nailed a color combination of siding/shingles off the top of his head which would match my house. He wrapped up the offer and supplied me a quote within a day. After I made my decision, Craig had the site installation crew out with a week to grade and fill a nice, level stone pad, and a few weeks later came back with the delivery crew for installation. Perched on a windy hilltop, Craig worked with me to incorporate hold downs on each corner of my shed for a bit of piece-of-mind, and actually took the time to show me how the contraptions worked. Unfortunately, the delivery crew arrived without my ramp to the garage door. A few days later, after being away for work, I arrived home to see that Craig had come out and installed my ramp for me while I was away. A couple of weeks later, I noticed that the door was out of square. Knowing that I had already accepted the installation, I sent Craig a note asking if he knew of anybody that could do some repair work to correct the door. 2 days later, Craig came out to my house and spent some time to meticulously level out some of the stone under the base of my shed. This brought the door into square perfectly. I've been so completely delighted with this company that I feel compelled to write this review. The Hardscape Store and Mr. Flickinger's care and attention to ensuring my satisfaction with my purchase has been second to NONE. I highly recommend this company, and if you are in the market for a shed, look no further than The Hardscape Store. Fantastic products, fantastic solutions, fantastic service, and providers of an overall fantastic experience. Thank you guys for exemplifying what a good company is made of. You guys should be damn proud of yourselves. Mark B. Westminster, MD

This is an amazing company. I had some water damage on a wall and I called the company that…read moreinstalled my roof. They then told me that the chimney needed a cap. I put a bid on Home Depot (rookie mistake) and had 2 contractors say I needed a cap that could be installed for $900. That didn't seem thorough so I called evolution chimney. They had a young man and his partner came out and they went in the basement and to the roof and told me all the work I needed done. They had to add a new and wide liner, fix the deteriorating staccato, ensured that there was no chance of carbon monoxide and of course the cap. It was well worth the investment. The first appointment I had there was a scheduling mishap so the woman that took my call offered to deploy an emergency weekend team but I opted to reschedule for the next week. The work was done in a few hours. I was worried about squirrels still getting into the attic so I put a metal trap up there but nothing has been in the attic since and no water seems to be coming through the wall. Highly recommend.

Had a great experience with this company recently. Comparing prices with three other companies…read moreserving our neighborhood, their price was fair. We especially appreciated their free estimates, where many competitors will charge for this. They sent Noel to inspect our chimney and fireplace and got us a quote very fast on a big project that involved re-lining two flues, power washing and brick pointing our chimney, replacing our chimney crown and chimney caps, installing a new damper, and repointing brick in our firebox. We liked their work so much we asked them to also do masonry work on our porch, replacing cracked bricks and brick-pointing where a previous contractor had done a poor job. As was mentioned by another Yelp review (and many reviews about this company in other websites, like home advisor) what sets this company apart is their excellent customer service. Ana is very accommodating and an excelent communicator who kept us in the loop every step of the way. We have recommended them to our friends and would definitely use them again in the future.
