We all slammed on our breaks to a complete stop. Car behind me had to come up on my side to avoid slamming into me. I've seen wrecks in front of this place before, I'm assuming this is how they happen. These people should not be out driving around let alone working on people's houses. I will make it a personal mission to dissuade anyone from doing business with these dangerous fools. The driver in question is lucky I was on the way to work, all I'm going to say.

Mason and Phyllis are very nice people, but they don't seem to be at all knowledgeable about…read morechimney maintenance and sealing. I had them out around 5 or so years ago to seal the crown of my chimney. Not knowing anything about it at the time of course, and based on their reviews, I fully trusted them as to what material should be applied for that purpose. Mason applied several tubes of Alex Plus caulk to the chimney crown. I was a little surprised they would use caulk, but then they were the "experts" right? They said this stuff will last 40 years, no problem! Your chimney is now fully sealed and protected! A few days ago I went up to inspect the chimney crown. Not an ounce of that caulk remains. Nada. Nothing. It's all gone. We're right back down to naked concrete again. And who knows how long it's been like that. So I called the Alex Plus manufacturer, and they said you should NEVER use Alex Plus for that purpose! Spoke to a chimney sweep, who said you should only use elastomeric sealants specifically made for chimney crowns. He was surprised any 'professional' would do something like that. Obviously, they didn't know what they were doing. Or what kind of sealant really should have been used. But they were nice. So $300 down the drain. Don't make the same mistake I made. Find somebody else.

Moreover, he gave a succinct written explanation of everything he had done and what we should watch for in coming years, occasionally suggesting changes in the way we used the stoves.

Nate came to clean out our flues. He spent a long time here both inside and on the roof. He checked the chimneys and told us which fireplaces needed cleaning and which ones could wait.

It was a real professional job.

I ordered a propane fireplace insert four months ago, and it was finally installed last week. it wasn't due to Covid or supply chain issues, it was their lack of organization.
