Can't wait to write this for Dave:…read more Dave did a wonderful job installing the log set in the fireplace.

I am extremely satisfied with the results and highly recommend his services.

One call, appointment scheduled and Sean showed up right on time. Sean used a camera, showed me the sticks and nesting materials inside (serious risk for carbon monoxide not exhausting), did a full clean out and best part, was able to save the cap and re-secure it. All for an extremely good price. Send your business to this fantastic company, highly recommended!!!!

We hired best budget tree service to take out trees and bushes in our yard. After coming out to…read moregive us a quote, he gave us a price for the bushes and told us he'd dig up the trees we were looking to have removed for free to keep for his own personal use. We agreed and he wrote it down as part of our quote. After being told 3 different times that he would come on a certain day or sometime that week, still we had no one come. The one time he offered to come we said we were out of town, but that they could do it anyways and he responded, "we can do when you're back. We're normally extremely busy but will find an early day open." They had no problem taking out the "paid" part of the job almost immediately, but now after 2 months of waiting for the trees to be removed, Jeremy, the owner, told us to "go buy a shovel I'm not interested in doing it." Therefore, not completing the job that was agreed upon and in writing. Jeremy is extremely unprofessional and unreliable. We were willing to pay for this from the start, which is why we contacted him in the first place. All we wanted was for the trees to be taken out and now Jeremy is sending us text messages saying "I just want to say thanks for the nice review. Do you think I'm a deceptive sales person to get your measly $600 you don't know this but I'm worth about 10 million I was going to help you dig those trees up or cut them off at the base it didn't matter to me this was to help you out for the free service. You're one review won't affect my 400 good ones take care, pal." Super professional from the owner, huh? 0/10 recommend. Go with a more reliable company.

Needless to say it had bever been cleaned and needed it terribly. In doing so found out there are numerous things that need to be repaired on it that we can not afford to repair at the moment. So we will go this winter unable to use it per code. I will say that the technician that came out was very knowledgeable and did a great job cleaning it. Im sure we will get around to getting it repaired so we can enjoy it.

Her communication was on point the whole way through always kept it real, listens, and genuinely tries to help. When it came time for the work, Mario and Simón came out and were fantastic.

Super professional and nice. The whole process was smooth, transparent, and high-quality. Pro tip Zelle is preferred.

The chimney cap had a lifetime guarantee according to the service agreement I was provided. During a recent storm, said chimney cap blew off. I sent 2 Yelp requests to Chicago Chimney Service about it and got no response. I then called and left a message about it and again, no response. So no, I don't recommend this company as if anything goes wrong down the road, they will not stand by their warranties. I hate leaving any negative review, but other people need to be aware that this company will not stand by their work in the long run, so look for a more reputable company from the get go.
