Nick's Chimney Service & Duct Cleaning of St Paul MN has been family owned and operated for over 16 years. We serve the Twin Cities Metro and Western Wisconsin areas, and we provide quality, reliable services at affordable rates.
"I had them out a few years ago to do $650.00 in tuck-pointing on my chimney since it was causing water intrusion into my basement. Their work started failing at the end of 2024 so I called them to see how much they stand behind their work and if they can at least inspect it to see what other issues the chimney may have. They never called or emailed me back so it all felt like a scam for them to get some quick cash with a half-hearted ‘fix’ when they did the tuck-pointing."

"This is a mixed review. We purchased our house in Oct 2014. We new the gas stove top had been repaired before buying the house. It was working fine for the first month, but started having issues in November. The original company who did the work were horrible just trying to schedule the work, so we decided to try Anderson Mechanical (formally AAA Anderson). The first apt was scheduled for December. John came out on time and was very professional. He looked performed the diagnostic and determined what part was needed. He said he would order the part and call to schedule next service when it came in. I did not hear back until either late december/early January at which point I called and asked on a status. They said they had the part and were ready to schedule, not sure why I didn't get a call. John came on at the newly scheduled time and found a special tool was needed for my stove top that had to be ordered, and that once it came in I would get a call to schedule the service. Again I ended up having to call after 2-3 weeks to ask for a status, and was told the tool was there and was ready to schedule. When John came out, he replaced the part but it unfortunately did not fix the issue. He said there was another part that would need to be replaced, and due to all the trouble he would cover the cost of the second part and its installation. I let him know of the follow up issues and he said he would make sure this was resolved, and it was. Kim called to schedule the next apt for the second part install. Again, John was very prompt for the apt, and replaced the part. Unfortunately this still didn't fix the issue, and John said he needed to replace the controller. He apologized for the inconvenience, and stated that he probably should have done some more thorough testing on all the components but had instead just went with the most likely suspects. Once the part came in an apt was scheduled. John came out again, and the installed the new controller. The burner in question was now working properly. When we were reviewing the stove top after service, John started another burner and it clicked a bit and didn't light. He shut it off and did it again and it started fine. I didn't think too much of it. Unfortunately that night that same burner, after running for a bit started acting up. Once it got hot, you could not restart it. Also, the igniter would keep going. I called and they scheduled an appointment to come back out. John took a look at it appeared the igniter needed to be replaced. John ordered the part, letting me know I would have to pay for the part since it was not related to the initial call, and we scheduled the appointment. The day of that apt, John called to tell me that the parts place did not get the part in time (parts place messed up) and asked to reschedule. We rescheduled and they came out Today, 4/5/2019, to install the part. After John installed the part, the issue was still happening. Effectively, the heat from the burner was not enough to stop it from triggering the igniter. If you put a pot on, or use a lighter to apply a little more heat, it works. John said at this point they did not know what else to do and were done, they were not going to come out any more on this appliance. He was very frustrated with the appliance not working correctly. As a business owner I understand having to decide on cutting losses and knowing when enough is enough, and is one of those cases. I was also frustrated. The original issue was the back right burner. Now the front left burner does not fully work. At best, after 4 months I am in little better shape than when I started (need to see how usable the burner is yet), and I would argue worse shape as I went from a burner that I used little being out to a burner I always used being out. I am out the cost of the service apt, and the initial part. John is also out the service cost trips, and soaked the cost on the new part, which I am grateful for. I shared my frustration, and john came back at me with how much he is out, how much it is costing him, and that he doesn't know what else to do. I felt John was getting hostile and said I think we are just done. I would like to know, that during this entire process I don't believe I shows any anger or displeasure with John or AAA, trying to show understanding. I believe I was very patient and held my frustration until the very end. There are a few opportunities I would like to share, and some quality observations . Opportunities: 1. It is really frustrating when a company does not follow through. John rectified this, but only after 2 times of it happening. 2. I feel if the diagnostic was done properly the first time, as John mentioned, the amount of time spent could have been greatly reduced. 3. While I know this was costing John as well, pushing that back on the customer is not professional. This is why I gave a B instead of an A in professionalism. If proper steps had been done during the diagnostics, the costs to John would have been reduced. As a person who does technical service for a living, I understand wanting to do a quick parts replace when 95% of the time thats the issue, but taking the time to ensure you know what the issue is would have saved both of us lots of time, and saved money. Additionally, the burner that is now not working John suspects may have started having issues due to the repeated taking apart of the stove. Having done the diagnostics up front may have prevented this. I accept that is only a maybe as we still have not fixed it and don't know how to. Pushing back against the customer at the end like John did is the only reason I would not hire again. I understand cutting losses on the stove repair, but not listening to my frustrations and telling me about your losses and your frustration is not something I want to risk dealing with again. (UPDATE: after having another company come take a look, it turned out the only problem with the burner is it needed to be cleaned. This seems like something that Anderson could have completed. This make the experience even more frustrating. Thus I am lowering the quality to a D and overall to a C)"

The best material for exterior shutters depends on your preferences. Natural wood offers a classic and timeless look but requires more maintenance. Vinyl, composite, and aluminum shutters provide low-maintenance options with modern styles. Consider your design goals and maintenance preferences to choose the material that ensures both beauty and durability.
Professional shutter installers handle the installation of exterior and interior shutters. They ensure precise fitting and secure mounting so your shutters function properly and enhance your home's curb appeal. Hiring an experienced professional guarantees your shutters are correctly aligned and built to withstand environmental conditions, providing long-lasting protection for your home.
Estate shutters cost an average of $2,990, with prices ranging from $300 to $8,400. Their total price varies based on size, material quality, and installation requirements. While they come with a higher price tag, estate shutters enhance your home's security and add a luxurious aesthetic to your house.
Exterior window shutters are worth the cost for many homeowners, offering aesthetic and functional benefits. They enhance your home's appearance, add security, improve energy efficiency, and protect against severe weather conditions. Investing in exterior shutters can increase your home's value, make it more attractive to future buyers, and provide long-term benefits.
Whether it's cheaper to buy new shutters or paint them depends on their condition. Painting shutters costs $200 to $500 on average and can refresh their appearance if they're in good shape. However, replacing your shutters may be more cost-effective in the long run if they are significantly worn or damaged.
Double-hung, casement, and slider windows are most suitable for exterior shutters, as they accommodate standard dimensions and allow for secure attachment. Unique window types like bay, dormer, and picture windows may not work well with functional shutters due to their shapes and incur higher labor costs due to the complexity of installation.
