"Dominic and his team were outstanding! I asked him to help refresh my yard and create something special around my mailbox. He exceeded expectations by sending examples in advance of the best flowers and plants for the space. Dominic's expertise in horticulture is impressive, and he only suggests plants that will thrive in the environment. I highly recommend Dominic and his team!"

"The work was completed as promised both on schedule and per the cost estimate. The only unknown was the amount of wood that needed replacement. This was determined as the job progressed and the old shingles were taken off.
Quality of the job was excellent with no leaks after completion.
Cleanup of the surrounding area was also good, I believe I found only two nails in the lawn area..
All telephone calls were answered by John Keller directly.
I would highly recommend John Keller roofing.

"They removed the old asphalt shingles and installed a new Evergreen clor metal roof. The house is approximately 2600 square feet. So this was a fairly big job. Dale the salesman was excellent. He kept us updated through the whole job. The job began on April 7th and naturally since there was no rain for most of the winter, there were several days of rain during the job. Felix the foreman and his crew worked until 8 pm on the last day which was Thursday April 14th. I went up on the roof for the final inspection with Dale and the workmanship was very good. All the seams were caulked and painted the same color as the roof. We have two skylights and the trim around them looked good.They even painted the two wind turbines the same color as the roof. The job is very professional. I am very happy with the work that Roofing USA did."
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.
