"Since I had used them before at another rental property I own for a dryer vent/duct cleaning and they advertised a whole house duct cleaning "special", I though I would give them a try again for the private residence (split level home) where I live. Office receptionist was cheerful and helpful and made the appointment as soon as their schedule permitted. She advised that representative would come by to check out the where the job was to be performed. She called when rep was due to advise that he would be a couple of hours late. I was okay with that since I wanted the work done. The rep was in the house maybe 10 minutes. He asked to see the furnace which was in the basement. I explained that there was one duct each in each of the up stairs bedrooms (3) the one upstairs bathroom and that there were additional ducts in the family room, additional bathroom, kitchen and living room. He left and emailed an estimate within the hour. The amount of the estimate was double the advertised special. When I questioned the amount via return email, the explanation was that the house was a split level and that I had 2 ducts in the basement. The advertised offer "covered 1 complete system/unit 1 zone and that additional charges would apply if additional systems need service". There is one zone heating/cooling in my home. I maybe would have accepted the offer if there were additional per duct charges over whatever the number of ducts the company considered as standard..but not DOUBLE the original offer. When I called the office to made an additional inquiry I asked about the offer and was told that the rep had final say over the price and the offer covered a one floor (ranch style?) home. Office advised that each floor of the home was subject to the special offer. This was confusing and deceptive advertising. "Special" deal language should be amended to indicate either how many ducts are included or that deal applies to certain kinds of residences. Will not use this company or recommend this company."

"I hired these folks to repair a built-in gas fireplace. This company was very responsive, communicative and prompt. Our tech was Nick, and he was excellent. He arrived right on time, diagnosed the issues, explained them to us in detail and was even able to fix them on the spot. He also did a safety inspection, as our unit had not been used for some time. Following service, he went the extra mile to vacuum up any dust and debris left by service - very much appreciated! Nick was courteous, knowledgeable and capable - I would happily have him back for any future needs with our unit. The price for service was very reasonable and came with a written, itemized estimate."

FAQs for chimney cap installation and replacement projects in South Salem, NY
A properly constructed chimney crown using quality materials can last 50 to 70 years with appropriate maintenance. Poorly constructed crowns might need replacement in 20 years or less. Weather exposure, freeze-thaw cycles, and construction quality all affect longevity. Regular inspections and prompt repairs of minor issues can significantly extend your chimney crown's useful life and prevent more costly repairs down the road.
Homeowners' insurance covers sudden, accidental damage to chimney crowns from events like fallen trees or storm damage. However, gradual deterioration from age or lack of maintenance falls outside coverage parameters. Review your specific policy details, as coverage varies between insurers. Document any storm-related damage with photos and maintain records of regular chimney maintenance to support potential claims for weather-related damage.
The chimney crown forms the concrete or masonry covering across the entire top surface of your chimney, sloping away from the flue to direct water away. A chimney cap, by contrast, is a smaller component that fits directly over the flue opening to prevent animal entry and block sparks. While the cap protects just the flue opening, the crown safeguards the entire chimney structure from water penetration.
Professional chimney inspections should occur annually to evaluate crown condition along with other chimney components. Homeowners in regions with severe weather patterns or frequent freeze-thaw cycles might benefit from semi-annual inspections. A thorough inspection examines the crown for cracks, spalling, deteriorating mortar joints, and proper water drainage. Early detection of minor issues prevents them from developing into major structural problems.
A deteriorating chimney crown frequently leads to interior moisture problems. When water penetrates crown cracks, it can travel through the chimney structure into adjacent walls and ceilings. This moisture migration often results in stained drywall, peeling paint, and potential mold growth. Early intervention through crown repair or sealing prevents these secondary damages and protects your home's interior from water-related deterioration.
