Get matched with top chimney cap installers and replacers in Toms River, NJ

"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!

"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!"

"The company that I chose to use was local, and could provide me with many local references within my neighborhood. Mark Jameson have excellent customer service, clean workman, very knowledgeable, explained in detail what they saw, and made suggestions although they were there just to clean the chimney."

"I was very pleased with the service and the prices are reasonable. They came on time, did not make any mess, and the place looks great."

"The service was fine. The only thing is that they were really late coming. So, it was like dark when they got out of here. They left the area good when they were finished. It took them an hour-and-a-half to complete the job. They sent me a picture of the chimney. The price was great. They did show up."

"All Access did an excellent job. They evaluated the chimney and provided recommendations to enhance efficiency. They relined the chimney, installed all required caps and the clean out box. The team was very professional and courteous, and the team lead was particularly amazing. Michelle was extremely understanding of my particular situation and was very helpful in ushering me through this process. I would definitely recommend them and would use them again."

"Job went very well all seasons provided us with insurance that the other roofers I got estimates from couldn't supply to me. They helped us pick out our colors for our roof. They were very patient with us. Very happy would recommend all seasons any day. Thanks."

"I was very impressed by the team at Waterwitch Roofing. They were very professional and completed the job in a timely manner. I was highly satisfied with the work they did on my roof. If you are looking for a roofer in the area definitely give them a call."

"They were extremely nice, anything I needed to change there was never a problem with that, the price was fair and they were always prompt, they got in there, did the construction and the work done, they left it extremely clean, no debris and they took out the junk. I've recommended them to a dozens of people and I'm happy I chose them as a contractor."

"Was very pleased with the company in the past with air duct cleaning service. This time I have hired them for dryer vent cleaning, chimney sweep and they also placed a cap on the chimney. Technician arrived on time and preformed the job perfectly. Sam was vary professional and polite. I would definitely use this company again and again. A+++++."
