Get matched with top chimney cap installers and replacers in Shipman, VA

"Rooftop did a fabulous job with this complex project. They took the time to walk us through its many facets and to help us figure out what we wanted in terms of the skylight replacement. All team members were courteous and responsive to our many questions. We were struck by the level of respect they showed each other, and us, and the genuine pride they displayed for each other's skills and work. Though this job required a huge outlay of money on our part, we had water leakage that needed to be solved, and we felt that the cost was reasonable and fair for the work that was required and the materials needed to do the job well. We are so happy with the results! The roof and skylights look terrific, and we are relieved to finally have our water leaks solved. We didn't know when we bought the house 20 years ago that the skylights had not been installed well, and what it would take to make it right! Thank you, Roof Top, for knowing what needed to be done."

"He showed up on time and gave me a quote on one cap. When I called to follow up and to schedule the job, he never followed up and never returned calls. Strange. I question the reliability"

"We recently had a woodstove installed by Blue Ridge Chimney Services. I can not say enough about Matt and Victor. They are both very professional, extremely knowledgeable, pay great attention to details and very personable. The first day they came out to my home they answered all my questions regarding which stove would work best in our home. I called them a couple times with additional questions and my calls were returned promptly. They all deserve higher than 5 stars in my opinion. Rhonda in their office is fantastic as well. I would highly recommend Blue Ridge Chimney."

"Every thing went perfectly! Harlan and Ryan were not only professionally superior throughout the installation, but they were flexible and pleasant to work with. The quality of materials was much better than I expected and we plan to make the new glass-enclosed patio a daily fun place. We got other estimates and different approaches, but we definitely made the right choice. Larry & Margaret"

"The company was quick to respond to my email request and came out a few days later and did the work. They called once and rescheduled because of rainy weather but showed up as scheduled. The two man crew were polite, professional, and took time to explain the process to me."

"I had problems with a leaking roof on a 19th century log cabin in Madison county.  Repeated attempts at spot repair failed and I finally had to bite the bullet and get the roof replaced.  A challenge in this rural area is finding reliable contractors who are willing to travel to get the work done, but Blue Ridge was responsive and submitted a competitive bid.  Metal roofing is never cheap, but they were very professional and worked with me to keep the costs reasonable while maintaining the historic character.  It took a while to schedule the job, as I recall, between competing work and rain, but they came when they said they would, and completed the job promptly and professionally.  I'd use them again for such a job, but the thing about metal roofs is, if done right, you don't need another one for 30 years!  In any case, a great job at a competitive price. <br />"

"Everything went excellent. I was extremely pleased with Dave and Juan and how they got everything completed, especially considering the complexity of my windows. The windows in my house are sadly very unique where the mullions are mounted to the interior of the window frame unlike common windows where the mullions are in-between the glass panes. Dave and Juan quickly discovered how to properly remove the frame to get the windows cleaned properly. I don't think another contractor would have made the effort or would have been able to figure out these unique window. The added step to the process was unfortunate, but I was extremely happy they discovered how the get it done correctly. In the process of cleaning the windows they also cleaned out my gutters, and repaired some rotten wood. It's a large house and the whole job took about 1.5 days because there were a lot of windows to clean. I can easily recommend that anyone considering doing business with Dave Surgerman should do so with confidence that the work will be completed professionally, in a timely manner, and at a fair price. Eric Trebour PS. I wish I could say the same about Angies List Service. I'd give them an "F". This is the 4th time I've tried to post this review without any success"

"Reputable contractor who did quality work.    Joe Condo, owner, was onsite leading the work everyday.    <br /> I found Pyramid via internet search looking for chimney repair contractors in the area.  After a few days of phone tag, Joe came out for a site visit to inspect the chimneys and give a quote for repairs.   We have a 100 yr old Victorian house with two original construction chimneys.   The mortar on both chimneys above the roof was crumbling, with one chimney held together by chicken-wire installed by the previous house owner.   Work scope involved rebuilding both chimneys from just below the roof line up.  Joe appeared very knowledgeable and experienced during his inspection.   The quote was received within a week of Joe's initial visit.    Due to other scheduled work, it was 6 weeks (late Oct) until Pyramid could come out to begin the work. <br /> Total construction took 2 weeks, from scaffold erection to final dismantle.    Joe and Dennis (helper) were very courteous and careful about trying to protect the property and roof from damage due to the construction.     First day was to erect the scaffold and lay pads and boards across the roofline around the chimneys.  2nd day was dismantle of 1st chimney, lowering old bricks and mortar to the ground via buckets and with tarps spread across the attic to catch debris.   3rd day was dismantle of the 2nd chimney to just below the roofline. <br /> Note:   With chimney's below the roofline, our furnace (which vents thru one chimney) had to be turned off until the chimney could be rebuilt above the roofline.   Outdoor temps during construction time (late Oct/early Nov) dipped to 30 degrees, with indoor temps in the 50's without heaters.   Joe offered to provide indoor heaters if needed - - - but the topic of living without heat was not discussed during the original job scoping.     Something to consider when scheduling work in cold months.   We ended up living more than a week without regular heat in the house.    Might consider scheduling work during warmer months. <br /> Day 5 was taken up with delivering the new bricks to the site.  Day 6 and 7 involved rebuilding chimney one, Day 8 and 9 for rebuilding chimney two.    A couple days were then lost waiting on the roofer to come install flashing around the new chimneys, as well as for fabrication of new chimney caps.    The next work day involved installing the chimney caps, installing flashing around both chimneys, and beginning clean-up.   The last day was spent tearing down the scaffolding and cleaning up.    They left the property in the same condition they found it, good final cleanup. <br /> Overall, Pyramid did a good job.   New chimneys look good, much better than the old with crumbling mortar and bricks.    Joe did a good job of communicating work status and his plans for the next few days.    Their work quality looks good, but only time will tell as to whether the flashing holds up to a heavy rain.    I chose to let Joe provide the roofer as a subcontractor rather than my trying to coordinate a local independent roof contractor to work with Pyramid - - - some delays, but worked OK. <br /> Total cost seemed a little pricey, but hard to compare since there are not many chimney contractors in the local area.    Pyramid is located about 60 miles from our house, so there was a significant commute for Joe and co everyday.   But onsite work hours were consistently 8:30 am until 4:30 pm. <br /> In summary - - - Good, knowledgeable experienced contractor that I would recommend for quality chimney repair. <br />"

"In keeping with his excellent reputation, business owner Doug Gentry did what he said he would and did a great job of it.  I live cross country from my late father's Virginia farm on which the barn needing demolition was located.  I was seeking a contractor who was licensed, bonded and insured and found such a person in Doug through Angie's List.  Doug was great to work with as I collected bids, and then as we developed a contract.  He provided a certificate of insurance at my request.  He charged a reasonable price and stuck with that price.  Doug started work on schedule in during the winter of 2013 when unusually high amounts of snow and rain made work challenging.  He kept me informed of his progress and finished within the time frame established.  Doug went the extra mile by providing me a county building department inspections document showing that the barn had been demolished so I could get the county tax department to reduce the property taxes.  Most importantly, Doug took the barn down safely, hauled everything away and left the site clean.  My onsite representatives who reported to me on how the work was coming praised Doug for his thoroughness in cleaning the site.  Doug is a real professional and a pleasure to do business with.  I definitely will call on him again for work on this property. <br />"

"I found the site over the web and contacted thecompany. From pictures sent via email, they helped me decide on size, and design elements and promptly sent me referrence since they reside outside my area. The item was made, shipped and damaged in transit and they took care of details of returning item to them, dealing wiht the insurance company, correcting the issue, keeping me up to date in the process and remaking the awning and getting it back to me. They supplied detailed instruction to my contractor for installation and were available via phone for consult during the process. I am very pleased."
