Get matched with top chimney cap installers and replacers in North Reading, MA

"Back in Nov 2021, Paul Collina of Safe Fire Chimney Service quoted over the phone for inspecting and cleaning the flue of my oil furnace. Paul C. arrived promptly, and covered everything carefully to avoid getting soot on anything in the room. Paul explained everything to me, and was polite and friendly, and honored the verbal quotation. I plan to have him back in summer of 2023 to replace the metal exhaust on the roof."

"We had several email exchanges with Lindsey and she was very helpful and informative. In the end we have decided to postpone the work since we are selling the house. If the buyer wants us to perform work on the chimney, we will definitely use Boston's Best Chimney."

"This is the first time I used Affordable Chimney Sweep and I was so impressed. During a storm, my chimney cap fell off. The office staff was efficient and so easy to deal with when I called. The work was completed today (around my schedule!) and I could not be happier. The repair technicians were friendly and professional. They actually called their boss to see if they could charge me less than my original quote as the job was not as difficult as expected. What great customer service! Will definitely be calling them again in the future and will recommend to everyone I know. Thank you for a job well done!"

"This project involved a roof replacement for a home built in 1931 with some unbelievably complicated roof lines. You will almost never see the types of things done today as they did back than. John was extremely responsive throughout the process in terms of coordinating the quote and leading up to the roof replacement. The team arrived promptly at 7 AM and work diligently for 2 days to get everything completed. Ice and Water shields were used, rubber membranes and architectural shingles and updated flashing were all part of the project. Pleasure working with John and will look for him on some updated exterior painting moving forward."

"Recently moved into Foxboro and consulted with DM Storrs prior to move <br /> to get an accurate understanding of the issues related to the effect the <br /> heating system had on the chimney and its masonry.    Dana was very <br /> professional and thorough and made every effort to thoroughly evaluate and <br /> explain the issues.  Today he finished inserting a new liner and will <br /> wait til the spring to have the masonry repaired.  Happy with every <br /> aspect of the work and look forward to working with the company again. <br />"

"They came the next day to check out the problem, then came back 2 days later and fixed it. They were very prompt and professional. The other place we used to install the chimney caps used cables that rusted out and broke. MetroWest replaced the cable with stainless steel cables, which shouldn't ever rust."

"Installation went fine until I noticed several weeks later that it was harder to keep house warm and there was significant draft by the woodstove insert. I went outside and looked at the chimney cap installed by Kevin Fredrickson and noticed it was off center of the chimney and the base of the cap was only covering 2/3rds of the opening and no insulation was placed around the liner so heat was funneling right up the chimney and outside.  I contacted Kevin and he responded within a few days and agreed to take a look.  When he arrived he didn't have the tools or ability to fix the cap due to snow so he stuffed insulation around the chimney liner from inside the house to keep the drafts down and stated he would be back in spring to fix the cap.  As of June 1, 2015 he hadn't contacted me or arrived to fix the cap so I tried to contact Kevin Fredrickson but got no response.  As of 10/9/2015  (the date of this review) Kevin had not contacted me or made any attempts to properly attach the chimney cap installed by Integrity Chimney Services LLC. <br /> <br /> On Friday October 16, 2015 Kevin stopped by and properly attached chimney cap to chimney and corrected the issue."

"Excellent. Prior to the beginning of the job there were many questions with regard to the liner and the re-build of the chimney stack. John was very thorough in what needed to be done and how it needed to be done so as to not incur any additional cost (headaches). When the time came for the work to be done, John and Miguel showed up on time and went right to work. Within a matter of hours, the chimney liner, exhaust manifolds for the furnaces and hot water heater were all installed - all with no trace of him being there beyond his completed work. John was a consummate professional from beginning to end. If I had another chimney I'd hire him again."

"Started a little slow, but this is their busy time of year - once it got going, it went very fast. Derek and his crew were very courteous and professional. I have had numerous people work on the fireplace and chimney over 40 years and none of them were as good as The Fireplace Guys. They laid down tarps not just in front of the fireplace, but all the way to the door! The sweep they performed before installing the fireplace was the best ever. Cost listed does not include the electrician and the plumber whom I paid myself."

"I originally wanted an estimate for a chimney liner and chimney brick repointing but they do not provide free estimates so I scheduled a chimney cleaning as that was needed too. The cleaning went well. The chimney sweep, Matt, was professional and informative. My only complaint was their lowest discounted price of the year (according to them) for the cleaning was still higher than most others. Also the estimate I received for the liner and brick repointing was incredibly high. The liner installation alone was $1500 higher than the other quotes I received. Other than that everything went well."
