Get matched with top brick or stone fireplace installers in Northborough, MA

"Al was fantastic! He clearly explained that my fireplace was shutting off as a safety feature due to low oxygen levels. He also reassembled the logs in the firebox and showed me the proper way to start and stop the fireplace. Highly recommend his service!"

"Pacific Stone did a nice job. Person in charge of scheduling measurements and installation was pleasant and courteous. Within a few days of my inquiry they came out to my house to take measurements and they brought samples to choose from. Installation was done within a few weeks after that. Took away the old countertops and sinks. They know what they're doing. One of the installers was actually the owner and they were prompt and professional and cleaned up well."

"Chimney Chap did an excellent job replacing the termination cap on my Vermont Castings gas stove at a reasonable cost. The two technicians who performed the work were very professional and worked hard to overcome some unforeseen installation difficulties. From my initial e-mail to the installation of the cap, Chimney Chap was very responsive. Meanwhile, some other companies I contacted were unresponsive and less interested in performing a small installation project. I will surely contact Chimney Chap, Inc. in the future if I experience any problems with my gas stove."

"Audio-Video Alternatives did a fantastic job installing and setting up my home theater system and stereo equipment in my newly finished basement. Carlos was amazing and went above and beyond to get the system set up and ensured I understood how it all worked. Carlos knows his stuff, has deep knowledge of all the various types of equipment available and has very competitive pricing. I never felt he was trying to over sell me. Instead, he took the time to understand what my needs and wants were and shared with me all my available options. He was very thorough providing pricing and gave me a very detailed quote (there were no surprise fees or hidden charges). Once I made my decision to move forward, their installation process went so smoothly and was right on schedule. I should note that I had turned to Audio -Video Alternative after having a bad experience at a big box store. My only regret was not going to Audio-Video first. If you’re considering installing a stereo & home theater system, call Audio-Video Alternatives and don’t do what I did waste your time talking to someone else. Every time I want to kick back and listen to some music or watch a movie, I have Carlos to thank for making it all look and sound great, and for making all so easy."

"The technician came, used a vacuum in the fireplace. Fine. I asked for an inspection of the chimney, but he wouldn't climb up to the roof. Instead, he used binoculars. I could have done that myself! And with binoculars, you cannot get a good view of the chimney, flashing, crown. No video inspection, no close up inspection. just binoculars. It was not a real inspection. Then he gave me a quote of $950 to install a cap, PLUS an additional $250 to bring an extra long ladder. Really?? I had another chimney contractor install the cap, and they did the work for 30% of the quote that Master Chimney gave me. I would not hire Master Chimney again."

"I selected Bob's Magic Broom based on feedback from Angie's List. Last month, when my furnace was serviced, the serviceman noted that chimney was not drawing as it should and recommended a cleaning. I checked my records and the last cleaning was in 2000. We have two flues - one for the furnace and one for a fireplace which is almost never used. The sweep (Joe) checked and fireplace and agreed it did not need cleaning, but the furnace flue was very bad and almost blocked. The cleaning took about an hour from beginning to end. The sweep cleaned up. I had no mess at all. I asked Joe how often I should have the chimney cleaned and he said about every other year. What I appreciated was that the service was prompt, courteous, and no hard upsell. I would definitely use Bob's Magic Broom again and highly recommend them to all."

"Very well: the ducts were filled with dust, dirt, and construction debris and now they are clean and shown to be so with their air duct camera. The technician was friendly, professional, and knowledgable. I'd highly recommend hiring them right after buying a house, especially if it is new construction. Also, if you have new filters on hand, they will install them for you after they are done. They have transparent pricing, you can pay online in advance, and I received a discount for doing so in April."

"I needed my chimney rebuilt, and they did a beautiful job. Everything was clearly explained beforehand, with an eye on keeping costs under control while not compromising the necessary quality of the job. I was made aware of possible unforeseen complications that could arise once the work started, but none of these happened and there were no additions or overages to the price quoted. Once the work began they finished promptly on schedule and cleaned up as soon as possible. The owner, Loiue Ranieri, is terrific guy, friendly and easy to work with. In fact, he kindly did a couple of minor non-chimney house repairs for me at no cost. We’d been referred to Ranieri by a carpenter who’d recommended them, and we’re very glad he did. I give them my highest rating."

"Donald arrived to my home on time,to do a chimney sweep for my fireplace. He also installed a new, stainless steel chimney cap for my chimney. He was very professional, and knowledgeable. He also gave me a discount on the cap. He was a great person to do business with!"

"I have been a homeowner since 1991, and this 1961 4BR colonial is home #6. I am an engineer and always leave the homes I've owned - especially the systems - better than I found them. We have made many home improvements, including finishing the basement and expanding the heating system from 1 to 4 zones. The heating system and flue is serviced annually. After a long stretch of cold weather, we noticed a smell of oil in the basement. Certified Chimney Inspections ([*** Link removed ***] responded promptly and professionally to my request for emergency service. Around sunset on the first day, they diagnosed that part of one of the clay chimney liners had collapsed, partially blocking the oil flue. On the second day, they arrived shortly after sunrise and worked 10+ hours to install a metal chimney liner and got us up and running by sunset. Both the on-site and office crews were incredibly helpful, respectful, and responsive, even providing original photos for a my homeowner's insurance. I would highly recommend Certified Chimney Inspections to anyone with routine or emergency chimney or masonry issues."
