"I went through like 3 other chimney groups including Chimney Sweep Masters and they all gave me conflicting information. Emerald City Chimney on the other hand was honest and thoroughly dismantled all the b******* the others tried to sell me. That’s what happens when you actual experienced workers take the lead instead of salespeople. It took a while to figure out exactly what the best approach would be, but in the end I got a job done for like $650 when the others wanted like $3000. I bought a custom fit chimney cap myself for like $200 I think and then had emerald city retrofit and install it for $450."

"Eagle and Sons did a fantastic job with our new gas fireplace...we are so pleased! Very courteous and professional father and sons team. When the fireplace screen came out of the box with a small hole in it from shipping... Hunter arranged to have a replacement delivered and stayed until 8PM so that he could finish the job same day. Excellent pipe and electrical work... neat and professional. They came back the following week at no charge to install an additional valve for easier access... their suggestion not mine. We will hire these guys to replace our gas furnace and add air conditioning when it's time to do that in a year or so. Highly recommend."

"We give J&R Rockscapes an A++!
We highly recommend them and have already recommended them to numerous friends and
neighbors. These are by far the best contractors we have hired for any job.
They finished on budget and on time !! We get nonstop compliments from
neighbors on how great our yard looks.
From the beginning bid- they were thorough, timely, and detail oriented. Their bid was competitively priced- it
wasn?t our lowest or highest but we were so impressed with Ryan and the
thoughtfulness he put into our bid, we hired them? and are so glad we did.
The scope of the work we had done:
· We had a 4ft retaining wall built for our corner
lot, front yard (approx. 160 ft)
· Evened out our yard and doubled the yard space
· Had a 4 zone sprinkler system and uplighting
installed throughout the entire front yard
· Added a high quality wood fence with stone
pillars and lights installed
· Finished with full landscaping including all
plants, trees, bushes, large granite rocks, beach pebbles, and bark.
We made changes to the project as we went along,which Ryan and Joe enthusiastically helped us with.
They both have a great eye for detail and helped us with all the decisions along the way.
What really makes them stand out above an A grade? Ryan was in constant
communication with us. He always worked with us, handling our questions with
patience and humor. We absolutely loved working with the entire team. Each
member is thoughtful, punctual, and hardworking. We really can?t convey the level of
enthusiasm we feel. Every day we step out to our beautiful new yard and smile.
We couldn?t be happier with the amazing job that J&R Rockscapes did for us!

"He came out to see why the fireplace was smoking and showed up the best way to prevent it. We initially thought there was build up in the chimney, which is why we called. He explained how to get rid of the smoke and was very respectful and pleasant. Also, when he had to cancel because of the snow storm, he made sure to call ahead. He was very punctual."

"We have a new construction home that we "finished" in July of last year. We had numerous problems during the build, so to save some money on overrunning budgets my husband and I decided to install the stone veneer ourselves both inside and outside the house. This included all the exterior wainscoting, four columns on the porch, and two floor-to-ceiling interior fireplaces. We started off well, but after finishing over half the work we (quite frankly) ran out of steam! With four large exterior columns and a very tall fireplace (15 feet) remaining, we called Jake at Stern's Masonry in January based on the excellent recommendations here on Angie's List.
Jake called back very quickly and came out to provide a quote within a few days. He was very professional, recognized how much work we had already done, and was conscientious to the fact that the new work needed to blend with the old (ours...not so professional!) as much as possible. We received his quote back with 24 hours, and while we felt the quoted price was reasonable, we unfortunately couldn't afford to get started until we'd saved up for a bit. Jake was very understanding and said "give me a call when you're ready". So in mid-March, we were happy to call him back for the job. Although the company was working other jobs, they fit us in and his installer (Tony) got started a couple of weeks later.
Over the course of about two weeks, Tony and Jake smoothed the basecoats we had started, installed the veneer on four outside columns, put on stone caps to the top of the columns, demo'd our "half job" on the 15-foot tall interior fireplace, and reinstalled the veneer and hearthstones on the fireplace. They had the skills (and scaffolding!) to get it done well. Throughout the work, both Tony and Jake were respectful to our house and cleaned up after each day of work to limit the impact. Jake also made sure that the work we had already done looked good before he was finished. He cleaned the exterior veneer we had already installed to make sure the colors matched up, did some professional patching around cutouts like the hose bib and exterior outlets that we weren't that skilled to do, "straightened" a few of our more problem stones, touched up the paint on our firebox when it was needed, and even used a little leftover mortar to patch some holes he noticed in our driveway (the result of one of our many "problems" during build).
So here's our recommendation: call Stern's. And if you need to save up the money first, do it! Worth. Every. Penny.

Start with a professional inspection. If damage is limited to a few bricks or the crown, a targeted repair helps keep costs and disruption to a minimum. Severe leaning, widespread mortar failure, or major fire damage usually signals it’s time for a complete teardown and rebuild. Your contractor will outline both price tags, but remember that rebuilding a failing stack is often cheaper than repeated patch jobs and the water leaks or fire hazards they allow.
Cracks provide water with an easy path into the masonry, weakening the bricks and mortar and increasing the risk of collapse or fire. Gaps can also let hot gases and sparks escape into attic spaces. Call a chimney pro as soon as you see cracking so they can seal small joints or recommend a larger rebuild before minor damage turns into a costly emergency.
Smoke rolling back into the room often indicates a blocked flue, a broken damper, or a drafting issue. Have a sweep inspect the damper, flue liner, and any obstructions right away. Most fixes involve clearing debris, repairing the liner, or adjusting the damper so the fireplace pulls air correctly. Don’t light another fire until a professional pinpoints the cause and confirms your system is venting safely.
Most policies cover chimney repairs caused by a sudden, covered event, such as lightning, a fallen tree, or a house fire. They won’t cover damage that stems from neglected maintenance or everyday wear. Review your policy or contact your agent before scheduling work to determine what documentation your insurer requires and what costs you will be responsible for.
Component life spans vary. Clay tile or cast-in-place liners last close to 50 years, while stainless-steel liners last 15 to 20 years. Mortar requires attention every 25 to 30 years, while crowns last 50 to 75 years. Use these numbers as a maintenance roadmap: schedule regular inspections, budget for future upgrades, and replace parts before age-related cracks develop into more significant problems.
