"No category on here for chimneys, but we hired Absolute Masonry to work on the two chimneys on our 1887 Queen Anne Victorian in Minneapolis. Our roofline is very high and lots of difficult peaks and valleys. They rebuilt one chimney and took down one chimney to the roof line and then re-roofed over that spot. Jason reached out two days prior to the scheduled start date and let us know they could start a day early if we'd like. Great communication with Jason and his team throughout the project. Very professional. The finished project exceeded our expectations. After not raining all summer, it rained every day they were here and they still got the job done early. Exceptional value and quality. Even the cleanup after the job was done was very thorough. We ABSOLUTELY recommend Absolute Masonry and wouldn't hesitate to hire them again!"

"it was an informational visit to see If my idea was possible, to see the fireplaces and check the price."

"Northern Climate Experts has done work on my fireplace and furnace. They are very affordable, knowledgeable, personable and professional. He explained to me what my best options were for the repair in an honest way and didn't try to push anything that wasn't necessary. I trust them to get the job done, no matter how difficult it is, in a timely manner. I would definitely hire them again and I have already referred them to my friends and family!"

"Tony came out quickly and on time. Knew how to resolve the problem and did so immediately. Has a lot of experience with gas fireplaces and knows how to solve a problem, would hire again."

"Aaron was great. He was polite, friendly and quite knowledgeable. He made sure to get the correct parts so everything fit together properly. He stayed until the job was completed. Then he patiently took the time to go over the operation of the new thermostat with us until we understood exactly how it worked."

"I am currently in the process of buying my first home and JJ Inspection Service made the process extremely simple. I needed the inspection done within a very short time frame (shorter than the standard ten day inspection period). Justin was able to get me a slot within my window despite already being busy and did a great job. He invited me to tag along on the inspection (not just come afterwards and get the summary report). I took him up on the invitation and I am glad I did. He walked me through the process of what type of issues he is looking for and why and also recommended ways to correct the problem and provided needed information for maintenance. One area of concern I had in my house is the skylight in the kitchen. I had noticed before that it looked like it had water spots on the decorative wood paneling around it. He did tell me they are notorious for leaking. I got pretty nervous at this point but soon had my anxiety put to rest. Justin used a moisture detector to check the various surfaces of the skylight and quickly determined that the water spots were from a past leak that had already been fixed. He also recommended a furnace cleaning/service because the furnace wasn't quite up to what he would like to see even though it could have been easily overlooked because it wasn't a large issue. Justin also made the report available online through an email link that doesn't expire (very handy) and told me not to hesitate to call with any questions or concerns. Overall Justin was great, very informative and easy to talk to. He made what has already been a great first home-buying experience even better! Thank you Justin!"

"Happily, the fireplaces were in great condition.  At that visit, it was recommended that I put toppers on the outside chimney, which I did do.  I appreciated that the issue was identified, and was very pleased with all of the services provided.

"Before making bid, inspected roof and pointed out damage to chimney.  Took pictures of chimney so I didn't have to climb roof.  Bid included what materials they would use, what services they would provide, and samples of the roofing and colors.  The house has two dormers in front, and other odd angles and pitch.  The owner came all 2 1/2 days it took to finish the job.  Used 5 workmen who were pleasant, professional, very good at their jobs.  And cleaned up each day.  I was very pleased with the finished product.  I  go 4 bids, Greene's price was comparable to the others and they  provided more services than the others.  I highly recommend them.

"Really can't say enough good things about my experience with Cady Handyman Services.   After reading about them on Angie's List, I contacted the company via email and received a quick reply.  Tom came out to give me a quote on the job and was professional and thorough, while also being friendly and helpful.  He took pictures and was nice enough to do a little patching even before they got the job.  Jim the owner was extremely helpful as he worked along with my insurance company behind the scenes. 

After all systems were go for the job, the work was scheduled within a couple of days.  Tom came out with a young helper, Danny, and I felt comfortable around both of them.  The materials they used were high quality, and they were willing to spend the time necessary to do the job right.  They completed the work for the price they quoted, even though it took longer than expected because of some problems with the way my original door had been installed.  They were more than willing to help with a couple of little odds and ends I needed. Afterwards, they cleaned up thoroughly and put everything together much better than it was before.

I have already recommended Cady to my friends, several of whom are single ladies who need help with a variety of jobs around the house.  I plan to have them build some shelving in my garage and in a closet.  

I see them as trustworthy, reliable, and conscientious.  They take pride in their work and are fun to be around."
