Good job. Good price. Good people. Highly recommend their work. They were fast and professional. Very pleased with our new fence and gate. read more

Highly recommend! We requested a 4' fence to keep our dog from getting a bit curious behind the shed, but also to keep all our yard equipment hidden for more of an appeal. The team at Fairfax Chimney & Fence executed it perfectly! (Roscoe thinks so too!) read more

They did a wonderful job on repairing our fence. The quality of work was very good and they were very nice and easy to work with. Would hire them without any hesitation. read more

The company fixed two flues. Service was great and timely. Would recommend them. . . . .

Our brick chimney was showing its age with some chipped mortar. Mason (current business owner, son of previous owner) gave a bid that was highly competitive with other bids received. He took photos of two chimneys from every angle, showed and explained where work was needed immediately, along with a couple options for work that would be helpful in the long term (but not absolutely needed now). We opted to do all suggestions, which included re-setting a couple rows of bricks, repointing mortar in a number of places, adding sealant, and installing a new crown. Every interaction was clear, prompt, courteous. I would use them again and would recommend them to friends. read more

This review is for getting someone out to checkout our chimney and getting an estimate. Contacting them and getting an appointment was great. Someone from the company came out on time and inspected our fireplace and chimney. He promised to provide an estimate of work within 2 to 5 days but never did. I texted the person several weeks later with no response at all. As a professional courtesy I expected at least a response. Very disappointing experience. read more

I cannot recommend Fairfax Chimney & Fence enough. They were quick, efficient and super friendly. John and his team showed up bright and early everyday and worked for hours at a time. We had about 500 ft of horizontal, privacy fence completed in less than a week. Our pups are delighted with the ability to roam free in our new yard, and the humans are awestruck with how beautiful our new fence looks. read more

I had Fairfax Chimney & Fence perform a chimney inspection to get ready to use our wood-burning fireplace this winter. Scheduling was easy, and service and pricing were great! They also identified some deteriorating mortar at the top of the chimney and recommended a power wash and repairs. Again, service and pricing were great, and they went above-and-beyond to ensure that our chimney will be in good operating condition for years to come. I appreciated the honesty, and workmanship; they clearly take pride in their work! read more

Definitely recommend this company. We had damage done to an existing fence after a storm. We called for an estimate on Monday, on time for his estimate scheduled Tuesday and squeezed us in on Thursday for the repair. Very satisfied and for the right price. read more

Brick chimney needed repairs including partial demolition and re-bricking. I also had 2 flues cleaned and the chimney brick sealed. This was a big job! They were honest with good pricing, punctual, and had great brick mason craftsmanship which included a good match of existing brick and mortar. read more

John and his team recently replaced our fence and did an excellent job. From our planning meeting, to removal of the old fence and installation of the new fence, the process was smooth and easy. His team was prompt and completed the work in a timely manner. The fence looks great, I am impressed with the craftsmanship and attention to detail! I would highly recommend them to friends and family! read more

This contractor replaced our 350 foot split rail fence (three rails) in about ten hours and we could not be more satisfied! Speed was important because of our three dogs, Jaxx, Bella and Reagan! We not only got the speed we needed, we got top quality! And the cost was lower than the two other bids we received. I highly recommend Fairfax Chimney & Fence and consider them to be perhaps the best contractor I have ever used -- and I have used quite a few in my eighty years! And Jaxx, Bella and Reagan love their new fence!! Our house is located in Montclair, Va.! read more

I used John with Fairfax Chimney and Fence to put up a split rail on my side yard this past spring. John was very easy to work with and extremely personable! Not to mention he was much more reasonably priced than other places I had contacted. Over the course of the first few months one of the posts seem to have some splitting that was a bit more than your typical wood checking. John came out and replaced the post right away! He stands by his word when it comes to Quality and is committed to you as a client. I'm very pleased. read more

I have used this company a number of times for houses I have renovated and will use them again. Their prices are always fair, the workers are professional and knowledgeable and the quality of their work is exceptional. read more

John and his crew repaired our fence a few months back and they did a great job and for a great price. They were quick and and did an excellent job. Naturally when our chimney needed to be repaired we received a few estimates and we decided to go with Fairfax Chimney and Fence since they did such a great job for us before. They came out and matched the bricks perfectly and completed the work in 2 days. Excellent service and a great crew who are friendly and hard working. I would recommend them for anyone who has chimney or fence problems. Thanks again John. read more

This company was recommended by a general contractor in Arlington as having been in the business awhile and having a good local reputation. John, FC&F's president, seemed nice enough. He came out on time to give an estimate for some work on our chimney. After a quick look from the inside and the roof, he recommended a new liner and other things, totaling about $2K. (Notably, unlike other chimney companies, he didn't actually stand up in the chimney to inspect or provide any photos of problem areas). Before he left, I told him that our home inspector and another chimney sweep had recommended some exterior mortar repoint work. Not to worry -- this was included in the estimate price, he said. I sent him a counteroffer the next day which included the repoint work in writing (maybe it's just me, but I like included services in writing). He called back and now said that he would need to look at the chimney again to determine the extent of the mortar work required. He said he'd call to set up another time to come out. I followed up about 2 weeks later after hearing nothing. No apology, but he promised to come out soon. About a week later I had a revised estimate in my mailbox -- the mortar repoint and some additional waterproofing were now recommended...for several hundred dollars more. I never got a follow-up phone call of any kind. It was clear that my business was not really wanted. I used Winston's (Arlington) instead -- great customer service. And they provided photos to show that we did not, in fact, need a new liner. We ended up needing very little work and spending a fraction of what FC&F had estimated. read more

I called John after a couple neighbors recommended his services. We just moved into our house a year ago, and I wanted to make sure our fireplace was safe to have a fire in it before we are expecting some major snow. He was very responsive, and quick to come out and do an inspection. Although he had informed me how much a chimney sweep would cost ahead of time, he said we really didn't need it after he took a look at it. Didn't even try to up-sell. The only additional service he recommended, was something the home inspector had mentioned, too. Overall, a great guy offering great service. read more

I hate giving bad reviews, but I was rather shocked how Fairfax Chimney conducts its business. After making an appointment to look at our chimney and taking off from work to make sure we could speak with the assessor, they never showed. I understand things come up, but a phone call explaining the situation would have been greatly appreciated. When they did show up the next day, who I believe was the owner, tI confronted him and asked why no one felt the need to call us the day before. It was a litany of excuses, but no apology. The owner then got back in his van, without looking st the chimney, because he felt the relationship wasn't going to work out. Seems cowardly and unprofessional. A simple apology and acknowledgement of our time would have been ok. Disappointed at how they conduct business. read more

I had Fairfax Chimney repair my chimney, they removed and replaced 18 rows of brick at the top of the chimney. They also replaced 2 cracked flue tiles and installed a chimney cap and then applied a waterproofing sealant to the chimney. In addition they painted my furnace chimney and put a stainless steel cap on that as well. They completed the major work in one day and applied the waterproofing a few days later. The chimney looks great! This work cost me a little under $2500.00 I tried to get an estimate from Chimney Doctors, they came out (I was not home) and left a card on my door. I called them twice and both times they said my estimate was not ready yet. I got tired of waiting and called Fairfax Chimney and I am glad I did. read more

We had John Orosch, the president of the company, come out to give an estimate on a wooden fence and gate in our backyard. The fence and gate were leaning and we were not sure if it needed to be repaired or replaced. We were happy with the estimate because we felt like it was cheaper than what most other places and bigger companies would have charged to repair. The day of the job 2 men came out and repaired the fence and gate. We were happy with the work. We paid them and they were on their way. Two months later John came to our door saying he never got paid. My husband explained that we gave payment to the men who came out to do the work on the day the work was done. John was ok with this and left. Two weeks later my husband sees John in our backyard taking the fence apart. When my husband confronted him he stated that he never got paid so he was basically taking the hinges back. My husband told him again that we paid his workers and if he never got paid then where is our credit card information for which John had no explanation. In checking our accounts I did notice that the payment had never gone through. My husband then gave him a check and we had to call our bank for a new debit card. Lesson learned by us is to make sure you receive a receipt when paying for services. My husband thought he received one but then we could not locate it. Although, when John returned he never asked to see a receipt for payment which he should have asked to see. We are very turned off by the way John handled the situation and it was completely unprofessional. Instead of just showing up in our backyard and taking everything apart he could have asked us again about payment and we could have investigated further as to why he never received payment. Also, it makes me very uneasy that he had no clue as to where our credit card information went. He should be looking more closely at the people working for him instead of assuming people aren't paying for his services. read more
