Get matched with top brick or stone fireplace repairers in Escondido, CA

"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!!"

"Paul made the necessary repairs/upgrades and we could not be more pleased with both him, and his work. We light the fireplace regularly and we would not even think about using anyone else for any fireplace needs that we may have. We highly recommend Paul and Custom Masonry & Fireplace Design."

"Mike and his team, which included his son Travis, did an excellent job. They were very punctual, polite, knowledgeable & gave me some ideas for another potential project. I was concerned about how the repair work would look on my 20 year old porch but the replaced stones and cement work looked great. Now I wonder why I waited so long. I’d highly recommend them."

"After Alex the owner read my review and comments he actually called me and came to our home and gave us a check for the overcharge!  He was super nice and explained we were charged twice on an item which I believed was the case too.  He did an inspection and said our fireplace was good.  He did mention a crack in the sealer on roof which first person did not but said because we had a stainless steel liner we were fine. He is resending invoice with comments and pictures and I feel much better about this company then I did before."

"It was kind of hard to get on Jim's schedule but it was worth the wait. Jim's crew showed up before 7:30am and patiently waited until we were ready for them to start work. We left for work and returned around 4:30pm. If Jim hadn't been there when we returned I would swear the work had been done by fireplace faeries. It was as if they were never there except the firebox and chimney lining had been completely replaced. Jim even touched up some of the antique tile on the fireplace face that had cracked over time. It's not perfect but I don't think it could be done better and he didn't even charge us for it. Jim is a fountain of information when it comes to old houses and fireplaces. He was able to date our house to the mid-1910's just by looking at the fireplace tile. He was able to give us a complete history of the manufacturer of the tile as well as the firebrick used to build the firebox. If you like old houses, you can spend a lot of time talking to Jim about them and San Diego history. We're still waiting for the concrete from the thermal pour to cure so we haven't used the fireplace yet but we're extremely happy with the work performed by Jim and his crew. Out of all of the work we've had done on the house it is perhaps the best execution and the best value."

"I have been using Thom and his crew for at least 8 years now for our chimney cleaning and maintenance, and I am very pleased with the work he does. They are thorough, clean, and always have a great attitude. A few years back the cap at the top of our chimney had some cracks and crumbling mortar; the repairs Thom made were first-quality and have stood up to the elements beautifully. He's also done mortar work on the firebrick inside the hearth. I recommend Chim Chiminey Sweep very highly and will continue to use them on an annual basis."

"We've had a problem with birds and a squirrel coming down our chimney. One chimney is in the kitchen for an indoor grill, and there is our fireplace in the den. We have rarely used either the grill or fireplace in the mid-century home we inherited from our parents. We decided to get the chimneys capped to prevent animal invasion. Luna's Chimney Sweep had very good reviews, so I called and was informed by Violet what the process is and that they offer a free estimate. I made an appointment and Pedro Luna and his assistant, Chris, arrived promptly on the appointed day and time. Mr. Luna explained their service and also gave us good information about the operation and mechanisms of fireplaces. He did the inspection and told us the problem areas that he found and gave us the option of how much work we would want to have done on the fireplaces. He said they could start work that day if we accept the estimated price, or make an appointment for them to come back another day. We decided to have the recommended repairs done that day, with cleaning and capping of both fireplaces. The work was completed in a little under three hours. Mr. Luna and Chris were thorough, efficient, and neat. He reviewed the work done with us and made sure we were satisfied with everything. They were careful to clean up afterward and the work areas were left spotless. We are pleased with the work done, the price seemed fair, and Mr. Luna was careful to explain everything and to make sure we understood the hows and whys of what he was recommending and doing. I would not hesitate to use his service again or give a referral to others."

"Pat and his team were on time, very knowledgeable and courteous. He went above and beyond explaining the issue we are having with our fireplace- made his recommendations and gave me his feedbacks. I will refer him to all our neighbors and friends that need fireplace service. Thank you!"

"It went great. The guys inside walked me through the installation so I could do it myself. But they also offered to install it for me for a very low price. They were very nice and extremely knowledgable about their products. I will definitely go back for my future fireplace needs."

"In the conversion process from burning wood and composite logs to gas in our fireplace, we contacted The Village Chimney Sweep to clean our chimney. We relied on the recommendations of Fireplaces Plus and Angie's List prior to scheduling an appointment. We scheduled an appointment the day we called and called again the day before the cleaning, to check for any special preparations. <br /> Mr. Richards and his son arrived promptly Jan. 9th and worked quickly and efficiently to complete the job in less than an hour. They took pains to cover the work area to prevent any soot or other dirt from coming back into the room. Mr. Richards also reviewed the gas connections and offered suggestions to mention to those who will complete the conversion. <br /> We were very well satisfied with their work, their professionalism and courtesy and we feel comfortable recommending them to others. We did not compare prices with other firms since we relied on two sources for recommendations. <br />"
