"Jim was professional and an expert in figuring out what was faulty. He identified that we needed to replace the gas valve and not only installed a new one but also restored the embers as well. We are thrilled, and we and our landlord will recommend Jim to anyone needing fireplace installation or repairs. Jim was also very respectful and punctual. Jim was also incredibly courteous and generous with his time especially because we have a cancer patient in our apartment. Thank you Jim!"

"Tony came and inspected my fireplace chimney as well as the heating chimney. He let me know what needed to be done to bring everything up to code. On the day of service, 2 crew members came to do the job. They swept the fireplace flue and applied the Thermocrete ceramic liner inside. They also installed a new damper and chimney cap. On the exterior, they repaired damaged bricks and mortar and rebuilt the concrete crown. They also installed bluestone slabs on the chimney shoulders and waterproofed the entire exterior from top to bottom. They also repaired some of the loose mortar on the interior as well. For the heating chimney they installed a new stainless steel liner to vent the boiler and hot water heater to code. They also installed a stainless steel chimney cap and double tee. The guys did a fantastic job. They cleaned up after themselves and also gave me good tips. I would definitely recommend 1 Hour Chimney and use them again in the future."

"The outcome was outstanding. Natural Stone transformed our kitchen. The staff is neat, respectful, and efficient."

"Home Service Experts matched a $50 offer from a competitor when we called them before the job began. They arrived late but called us to explain their circumstances at least three times in advance of their arrival. They had been on another job which ran late because that homeowner had no heat and Home Service Experts wouldn't leave them without heating. Upon their arrival, they inspected our fireplace and immediately explained that there was no need to clean it. They showed me that the chimney was completely void of creosote by looking up into it with a light. When inspecting the fireplace, we told them that water had been accumulating in it. Home Service Experts thoroughly examined the fireplace looking for the source of the leak including getting a ladder and climbing onto the roof. They examined the flashing at the base of the chimney, noted it was not sealed, and went into detail as to how I could test for a water leak and repair it myself or contact someone who does flashing. They also explained and showed me that inside the chimney, one wall of the flue was not concreted (evidently, it should have been) but the owner didn't think that was the root cause of the leak. Overall, they spent considerable time and offered clear and thorough explanations to me, all at no charge. The owner seemed like a very knowledgeable and likeable guy who was really trying to be helpful. Seemed like an old school, blue collar type which I truly appreciated. Would call them again or recommend them without reservation."

"This provider SAVED US $ 4000.00
They arrived as scheduled and made a careful un-rushed evaluation of our chimney/fireplace inside and out top to bottom and discussed their findings , answering all questions.
This was an amazing experience with the most honest and professional experts ever ! We had just been told by another chimney person that we needed a $4000.00 repair of our chimney- including a liner, new bricks and other stuff or we were at some safety risks. Also that the work needed to be done ASAP.
We called 5 Star.  We did not tell them we had had other estimates as we wanted him to be free to give us the best price and information. He took him time , looked at all the parts we had been told needed repair and said they were fine with one minor job we could do ourselves- he told us how-. The previous contractor told us that debris in what we thought was a chimney clean out were cracked tiles fallen from the chimney. NOT CORRECT. It was not even a chimney clean out! And the liner that was recommended by the apparently dishonest contractor would not have fit our chimney. This man, Tim , is no-nonsense and totally honest. We would hire them again in a flash because of their knowledge and there commitment to honesty."

"Seals well enough to keep out any air from coming down chimney,but because of old one being cut out of metal firebox,some cold air still radiates into fireplace and out into rec room during really cold weather. New damper is spring loaded which makes it difficult for my girlfriend to close. Also they kept cancelling appointments  stating they had emergency calls they had to handle first. Finally came on 4th or 5th appointment. Did show up in scheduled time window, did work in about one hour, and left work area in clean condition. This was the most efficient way to do the repairs because of the way the fireplace was built and to replace everything would have been cost prohibitive plus not feasible because of the stone work on the fireplace which is a hard to find lava rock. Biggest negative was the numerous cancellations."

"Excellent service. Vinny is very honest and knowledgeable about his industry. He spent time to explain every detail about what he was working on and made sure I clearly understood what needed repair and why. He was very thorough and went above and beyond to make sure everything was done correctly. I would highly recommend Safety First for any chimney/fireplace/masonry repair or restoration project you may have. They provide high quality work with great service at a very fair price."

"They did an amazing job. Professional, honest and clean. They are a family business and very dependable. Quality quartz countertop installed."
