Get matched with top chimney cap installers and replacers in Pearl River, NY

"A few weeks ago, high winds blew off my chimney cap. It was installed 15 years ago by a supposedly reputable chimney sweep along with the installation of what was supposed to be a "full length" chimney liner. He also tarred the chimney above roof line.
With my being somewhat afraid of heights, my wife found very good reviews of Safety First Chimney & Fireplace Restoration on another online review site and made an appointment for Tuesday 4/12. Vincent showed up promptly to replace the cap. It took all of 3 minutes.  He showed me a few pictures of my chimney on his phone. I was shocked to discover how deteriorated it was! Half the tar was gone, there were big chunks of mortar missing from between the bricks and some were even shifted out of place. You didn't have to be an expert to see that it needed a complete rebuild. He also mentioned that the liner material was very flimsy. Being thorough he asked to check the base of the chimney at the boiler and discovered that the liner didn't even go to the bottom. He called me down to see for myself. That was the moment I decided I liked and trusted Vincent. He involved me, and let me see with my own eyes what the issues were! Knowing that such an essential aspect of my home should not be ignored, I agreed to have all matters addressed, and made another appointment for Friday 4/15.
Demolition was quick due to the poor condition of the old chimney. Vincent then removed the old liner. It was only 15' long, falling about 7' short of the furnace connector!  He also showed me a piece of the liner. It really was "coffee can thin" and filled with ridges on the inside which collected soot and particles. He installed a smooth core, heavy stainless steel, double walled liner.
Next came the "roof up" chimney rebuild. Vincent offered a choice of new or old brick. I opted for old brick, in keeping with my old house. I am very pleased with the masonry work! I'm no expert but I've laid a few bricks in my time and can really appreciate what a nice job it is. Everything's straight, level, well spaced and proportioned. He even topped it with a red clay flu liner. Something my old chimney didn't have. And of course he replaced my old stainless cap which was just fine. It's so nice I wish I could upload a picture here. He posts pics on his website so maybe you can see it there.
Highly recommended!

"Very smoothly and professional.  They spent about 1.5 hours examining exhaust outlet, chimney and structure.  Thoroughly cleaned the fireplace.  Made sure the area was spotless before they left.

"They were very good quick clean, reasonable price my problem was resolved no mess at all they took their time to clean and they have a respect to my house they were very professional they were excellent. and I have no complaint at all.My chimney look so phenomenal looks like a brand new since it haven't clean for 10 years."

"Fast, responsive, and left us very satisfied. Lynn was extremely helpful and explained the whole process. Sean was wonderful to work with and also extremely patient. He explained everything (sometimes twice) so we could understand. They were honest, up front, and were able to fix the flue liner and install flashing same day (yes, I learned new words today!). Everything they installed in under warranty with a service guarantee. We will definitely be using them for future chimney cleaning. Loved the inspection report with the pictures as well! Big plus!"

"• TH was the single best home service I have experienced in the region in 48 years. Immediate response to my Niagra-Falls-in–the-living-room panic call. Next day I had an estimate with options for me so I could do the job on my very meager budget. A few days later, what seemed like an army of workers showed up at 7:00am and by 3:30 in the afternoon I had a new roof and there wasn’t any evidence that anybody had been here. Amazing. The job was done for $3000. less than a quote I had from another roofer three years earlier and offered a lifetime guarantee. (Makes selling the house down the road, much easier. I can transfer the guarantee with the house). This company is amazingly professional and comfortable to work with. • 7400."

"Troy returned my call quickly, and was at my house in no time to assess the ice dams that had developed on my roof.  He offered to do the work immediately.  His price was very high, but I needed to get the Ice cleared quickly and no one else had responded to my inquiries.  I expressed serious concern for potential damage to my gutter guards as they were intending to use masonry tools to chop up the ice.  Troy provided a guarantee in writing to be responsible for the gutters as well as the roof shingles 5 feet back.  Given this, I agreed to the work.  They were done in 3 hours.

Later that day I noticed white plastic pieces on my back deck and also around the front door landing.  That's when I realized the edging of my gutter guards was chipped all along the length of the roof in both the front and back of the house.  I called and left a voice mail for Troy describing what I had found.  He responded very quickly and left me a message indicating that I shouldn't worry; they would repair whatever was damaged.  

In the spring, I climbed up on a ladder to assess the full damage to my guards.  The screens were torn up and the guards were broken along the entire length of the roof.  I sent pictures to Troy and explained these were LeafFilter guards (www.leaffilter.com), a fairly expensive product which can only be installed by LeafFilter directly.  Troy agreed to meet me halfway on the repair which I felt was fair considering he wouldn't be able to do the install work himself.  

My gutter guards were repaired by LeafFilter recently; and, I'm happy to report that Troy stood behind his guarantee and wrote me a check for 50% of the repair."

"Excellent service! I had damage to my roof recently and needed it to be repaired ASAP. Segelman Shaw came to my house, assessed the situation and repaired it. They are honest and clear with their communication. A+ experience and will use them again."

"After hurricane sandy in 2012 a lot of people in Brooklyn and  Long Island got flooded a lot of home owners received flood damages or  lost their property due to Hurricane Sandy... I am living on Cony Island Seagate  area at that time I was home with my Family and how a remember the water came up to my house and flooded my basement and first floor of my house... I was very scared and desperate.... We basically lost everything at the first and basement floor...
We have received some help from FEMA like every homeowner in that area  but the rest was huge loss from our pockets...
We found structureline based on recommendations and we started to do renovation...Nicholas the General Manager helped us out to apply for a small loan so we could begin the  renovation...We needed to do a complete  house renovation ....
They took off the walls  in the basement and 1st floor, they did mold disinfection, replaced all drywall's, wiring, boiler, windows, doors, siding etc..
They did remodeling on the master bathroom from the first floor and kitchen, they did a wonderful job...We love their new engineered Hardwood floor and the new design of the bathroom with the big bathtub and shower cabinet ... The price we spend ed was a little higher than we were   expected because we did some design work in the living room and Kitchen but for sure it worth it....If Someone will ask me for a recommendation for sure I will recommend Structureline because they helped me out at that time ....Thanks"

"Contacted to get a quote on my brick facade. Services performed included grinding, power-washing, and re-pointing my facade. Price was medium-ranged from other quotes. Responsiveness and punctuality was excellent."
