    New chase cover and cap
    Justin M.

    Adam and Phil from Den Defenders installed a new chase cover and cap on my dual chimney. Our chase cover was rusted and the surrounding wood trim was rotted. Whenever it rained, our chimney would leak. Adam and Phil removed the old chase cover and installed a new one that was custom fabricated at their shop in Stockton. They also installed a new chimney cap that is more up to code than the old shroud that was originally on my house. Overall, Den Defenders are super friendly, scheduling was easy, they arrived promptly, and overall did a professional job. I would highly recommend and refer Den Defenders for any chimney work.

    Email to confirm my appointment... that never happened :/

    *This review has been updated since I initially left the former company a five star review half a year ago* I had a great initial experience in July of 2022 with this company when it was called Mike's Mobile. I scheduled a chimney and fireplace box inspection at my rental property, Anthony showed up when they said he was scheduled, and he even called me after to go over the inspection report. I paid the charge immediately for the inspection over the phone. Then, Anthony up-sold me on a handful of different upgrades for my rental property's fireplace box, including custom ordered glass doors. I paid my deposit for those upgrades immediately, too, which totaled over $2100. The custom glass work was to be done a few months later because they had to custom order the glass. Understandable. The only deadline I had was that I wanted to have the work completed before the cold weather began so my tenant could have cozy fires in their rental home. The day before the install, the first week of October of 2022, I got an email to confirm my appointment. The day of, a text stating the technician would arrive at my rental property at the agreed upon time. Great! Well, not so fast: A couple months later, my property manager notifies me that my tenant said the work to the fireplace had never been completed. My mind was blown! Well ok, it would be a simple fix so I called what is now Den Defenders, talked to Martina and told her what happened. I explained that since the work wasn't done yet, I would just like my deposit back and to call the job off. They dropped the ball so the agreement is voided. Not to them! They failed to perform the agreed upon services and they still want to do business with me and keep my money? No thank you. Anyway, I got the run around. Martina spoke to Mark, the "fireplace manager" and apparently they "can't" refund me my deposit which means they simply won't do that. After a few phone calls to Martina, I got the hint. If I called Martina right now, she would still claim that Mark will be calling me. But he won't. I now have a dispute opened with my credit card company which is how I paid the deposit. When I paid my deposit, I had a gut instinct that I listened to and used a credit card instead of another form of payment since I didn't have a positive track record with them. Glad I did that!

    I just had my security door installed and very impressed. The install took less than 2 hours. The technician arrived early/on-time! He was respectful, quick, kind, and walked me through what his process was!

    Joseph of Den Defenders was out today to clean and inspect our chimney for the 2nd year since they did major work on it. Joseph has been so easy to work with from the get-go: professional, knowledgeable, friendly, thorough. The work they did was excellent and is holding up well. I would easily recommend Den Defenders for chimney work.

    Our installer Mike arrived on time and started working immediately on our door. The door turned out beautifully. We would highly recommend Mike's Mobile Screen.

    Today I had my fireplace fabricated panels replaced by Richard and Adam. Great service and it took only 2 hours.

    Just had our security doors installed! Great product and service was awesome. Our installer, Ross, explained the process, was quick efficient, and his quality work shows.

    Our Viewguard security door is everything we hoped it would be. Our old screen door offered no security and our dogs could easily get out. It did take a bit to get the door, but we they told us what to expect. The door is gorgeous and very secure. I'm really glad we decided to get this door and not a basic screen door

    Wes did an EXCELLENT job on our screen door. No cracks under my door. Very skilled at what he does and takes pride in his work! I highly recommend Wes.

    Security screen door with programmable lock
    Don N.

    Our installer Mark arrived on time and was very professional and courteous. He installed our security screen door, helped us program the lock, and matched the key lock to our existing keys. We love how the door looks, its quality, and workmanship. It's supposed to be able to withstand a sledgehammer so we feel a little safer from standard criminals. It also gives us great airflow.

Sam was great to speak with and he answered all of my questions and gave me what I thought was a reasonable quote (given all the increased taxes and tariffs due to the Trump administration ripping off Americans!!) and scheduled time for them to come and install a new gas insert. The installers were quick and professional and did a good job installing the new gas insert, everything looks great and the fire is warm. :)

    I trusted fellow Yelpers when trying to locate a fireplace/chimney cleaner. I'm grateful to them…read morefor helping me find Elite Fireplace! THANK YOU! It's so difficult today to find trustworthy, reliable, dependable, and professional businesses that provide superior customer service and, what my husband refers to as, "squared away" people. At the time I scheduled the appointment, the lady who booked it, gave me all the details, including the cost, and what would be inclusive in that cost. Although I scheduled the appointment, I had to work so my husband greeted Anthony when he got to our home. While I was at work, my husband was sending me text messages about Anthony, how much he liked him, how professional, articulate and smart he was. My husband is not a subject matter expert when it comes to fireplaces or chimneys, however he is a retired engineer, and has a strong family history of working with and for multiple companies and people directly involved in "the trades." Because of this, everything that Anthony went over with my husband, was on point. Anthony and the company he represents, has integrity. This is another quality we don't get from businesses or companies today. Everything went as promised by the person that scheduled my appointment. We had a full report by the time Anthony left with pictures and costs for each item that was suggested. Anthony also strongly encouraged us to not use our fireplace! We love fires, but continued use, in the current state of the fireplace, could pose a safety risk. Most people wouldn't want to pay the cost for the inspection, but it was worth every single penny to us! Our home was built in 1947, and has probably not had many if any repairs at all. Note to the owner: I am sure you treat your team wonderfully well, but please continue to do so. Staff members like Anthony are difficult to find. I've been managing healthcare operations for most of my career and people like Anthony, not necessarily fireplace technicians, but in the workforce as a whole, are few and far between when it comes to representatives of your company.

I appreciated Elite sending me a photo of Joseph with an arrival time. (Safety first!). We also got a very thorough inspection of the fireplace, chimney, and chimney cap, with photos. Joseph spent a good 20 minutes explaining each point, what it meant, how to fix, etc. We were really impressed with the level of service and thoroughness. Will definitely use this company again.
