Get matched with top chimney cap installers and replacers in Potomac, MD

"The repointing work was generally done well. Old mortar and bricks were removed and new bricks were installed. The craftsmanship was excellent. However, the color of the mortar used differed from that in the rest of the brickwork, so at present it stands out. Sixpenny said to wait a period and then re-evaluate whether any change should be made. I would rate this as an "A" but for the color difference in the mortar that was not expected. The chimney cap work was done well."

"They were good Their price was exorbitantly high, but they matched the price of other estimate I had and I used them. I don't want to share the price. I'll give them a D for the price, but then they came and matched my other estimates. Their initial estimate was a thousand dollar more than a couple of estimates. The initial cost was a D. Their bid was $1,300 over other bids, but they were actually doing more work. the quality was good.They needed a little monitoring, but they did a great job."

"The Finest Chimney techs were fast and efficient and even took their debris in a bag with them(they could have put in my garbage can)."

"Excellent service from first contact until job completion. They showed up on time to provide an estimate, which was the lowest of three I got. Provided superb service and 'coaching' to save me money as well. Their technician -- Robert Uda -- was easy to work with and absolutely EXCELLENT! Definitely put them at the top of your list for chimney cleaning, installation and other work."

"Called Dave to inspect and repair chimney of 40-year-old house after home inspection stated that both chimney and furnace flu needed re-lining and chimney to be rebuilt from roof-line on up to the tune of thousands of dollars.  Dave inspected the chimney and found that the chimney flu did not need re-lining and the chimney could be repaired & weatherproofed, rather than rebuilt - this saved us money and maintained the rustic charm of the existing chimney.  He was very thorough in his inspection and taught us everything we would need to know about chimney maintenance, safety and structure.  His partner, Ken, did a masterful job of repairing our chimney - he replaced the individual bricks with aged ones, then sealed/waterproofed the brickwork - our chimney is safe and maintains its' charming appearance.   He also re-lined the furnace flu and placed the chimney cap.  Dave returned to replace our worn-out fireplace damper and cleaned our chimney.  Although the price for each service was a little on the higher side of other estimates, his creativity and knowledge of alternative fixes saved us money in the long run, and the quality of the work was well worth the price charged."

"Excellent service. Chimney inspection not only showed a safe and intact chimney and vent, it also showed the chimney was not in need of cleaning even though it had been several years since last cleaned. I love it when businesses are honest enough to tell you when you don't need a service."

"Chimney had missing mortar and cracks from age and recent home construction, Chimney was repaired and a stainless steel lining system installed. Crew of two arrived at 10:30a and worked nonstop until 7:00p removing the damaged lining/bricks/mortar, installing liner, and resealing. Both gentlemen were courteous and proficient. Work areas around fireplace (interior) and chimney (exterior) were thoroughly cleaned up. Most pleased overall. Will continue to use them for our annual cleanings and maintenance. Thanks for the excellent work."

"Capitol came out on time, and a nice gentleman named Abraham and a helper came out to give an estimate for the work. He spent about 45 minutes looking around, and to my surprise, issued a bid on the spot. The bid was reasonable and actually included a full rebuild of one chimney from scratch, including building a firebox. I was really tempted because the two other bids I received wanted to sell me a prebuilt firebox at considerable cost (almost nobody hand-builds fireboxes anymore, it seems), and I liked the idea of getting a brand new chimney as I had lots of brick damage from years of thermal cycling. However, the risk is much higher in buying this type of work because your chimney performance is completely tied to the company's ability to properly design a replacement chimney and build it properly in all its details. So, I asked for a portfolio to see their rebuild work--i.e., not repairs, but work where they had fully rebuilt chimneys, They sent a few jobs with perhaps a couple of "after" photos each, which did not engender confidence that they were proud of their work. I would think a big chimney rebuild should have had all kinds of process photos, pictures of the firebox, etc. So, I asked for two references who had rebuilds done who could vouch for the work, and that was the last I heard from this company over a week ago. So, I'm not entirely confident that their full rebuild customers are happy, given I haven't seen a single review on this website for a large job like mine. As tempted as I am to take their reasonable offer, I am not entirely sure they can do a full rebuild I would be happy with. Not having a portfolio and no references is not a good sign."
