"They are very friendly and knowledgeable. The technician that came out took the time to explain everything to me to help me understand how the chimney and fireplace work and why he recommended the repairs he did. And ever since the work was done, our fireplace has been burning cleaner and actually feels safe for my home and my family. Thank you all so much!!"

"Our new backyard, completed by Rock N Block turned out AMAZING! We haven’t used our backyard for almost 10 years because it was in major need of an upgrade. Brandon came out and helped us design a winner. Entire job was done in 3 days. Great value, and amazing service. Thank you so much!!"

"I called a couple companies about my Dyna Flame 3000G fireplace that was not working. After talking with one company that told me Dyna Flame was out of business, and replacement parts could not be found, I was discouraged. I decided to call around some more for other opinions. One other company did not get back to me. Gary called me back, and we scheduled an appointment. He came out, checked a number of things, and finally zeroed in on the high temperature device. He was able to find a replacement in his truck, and now I have a working fireplace.
Given the estimate of $3000-$6000 dollars to replace my fireplace from the other company, I was quite happy to pay Gary the $200 for the service call and part. Thanks Gary!

"Pros: Very prompt.  Took care to protect carpet and furniture. Thorough and friendly.  Made recommendations for approximately $800 of repair work. Cons: Service person took pieces of concrete off the chimney cap to show me the cap was crumbling (I would have preferred he just tell me).  Decided not to reuse service only because of my feelings about the chimney cap.  He did a great job cleaning the chimney.

"Fireplace Door Guy definitely exceeded our expectations. Not only was Danny (the owner) professional and responsive, the quality of workmanship was truly artwork. Our custom fireplace door is now the centerpiece of our main living room. We were so pleased with the door, within a month we ordered a 2nd door for our bedroom fireplace. Thank you Danny"

"Mostly it was good but they left a little mess on the walls I had to clean up but other than that they did a good job."

"I was very impressed with Jeff's work and professionalism. He didn't just do the job, he really took pride in doing the best job. He was thoughtful and took exceptional care when it came to my home. Honestly, I didn't expect this. No question about it, Chimney Crickets is the company you want to hire."

"I had a total of three bids to do this work. I am a retired professional engineer so I wrote detailed specifications for this project and I am well acquainted with what it takes to ensure getting a quality construction project. I was very pleased with T. F. Larkin (Tim) when he arrived to make his estimate. During our interview, Tim made several design suggestions which revealed to me his creative talents which were not apparent from my two previous bidders. We have a town home with an entry, kitchen, office/den, dining/living room (14 foot ceilings), master bedroom, master bath, guest bedroom, guest bath and a hall connecting the bedrooms and living room. For our living/dining room Tim suggested doing a triple stacked crown moulding which is one of his artistic specialties since this would high light our 14 foot high ceilings which it certainly did. He also added artistic mouldings around our glassed in bar, kitchen, master bedroom floor to ceiling drape and both baths. In the hallway was an attic access which most contractors just do in an ordinary way. However, Tim did a creative design that made the attic access look as if it were hewn out of the ceiling like and art piece. I specified that all the moulding materials be painted with two coats prior to installation and caulking and touch up painting after installation. His crew of six first worked for 5 days in January then returned for one day on April 10th to complete some base mouldings that had to be done separately because of large furniture prices that had to be disassembled, moved then reassembled by another contractor. Tim's crew of 6 were very professional and very careful to protect our furnishings and our many art pieces. During the final touch up his crew used lights fastened to their hats to inspect and make sure all defects were corrected. Following this installation, I used a painting contractor recommended by Tim to paint all of the interior with 10 colors (12 different paints) which turned out exceptionally well also.
Over the years I have been involved in more than two dozens remodeling projects at a larger home we lived in for 26 years and our current town home. At the conclusion of this job, I told Tim it was the best $10,000 that I have ever spent on a remodeling project.
