Wind is the enemy of chimneys. I get a lot of wind at my now over 100 year old home. Sometime in…read morethe 1980's, an owner added a wood-burning fireplace insert with a heat circulating fan. I inherited a lifetime supply of hardwood firewood from the previous owners, and I've added to it. The wind broke and blew off the top part of my chimney cap. We were in bed when we heard a big crash and bumping on the roof. It wasn't the usual squirrels traversing my roof in the morning. Though in December, it wasn't Santa. The smoke and rain corroded the metal, and it just broke. I was very worried without the cap that the rain would ruin the fireplace, the flue, the framing, and siding. Many chimney companies are backed up for 2 or more months, even to come look. But Tip Top, Tobias and Mike, were able to schedule. Tobias reassured me by phone before visiting that with my chimney cap top missing, the rain would not enter, and he was right. They came, phoning ahead, removed the old cap, measured for the replacement, and covered the flue. Tip Top have a wealth of knowledge. These fireplace chimney kits were a complete system, usually made by small companies. The parts are not interchangeable or standard. Tip Top even has a small fabrication shop they work with for odd parts. They were able to order a stainless cap fitting a 13" outer and 8" inner concentric stainless flue pipe. You would also find similar, but smaller, concentric stainless piping on furnace and hot water flues. The fireplace, vent, flue, and cap systems are really not made to be repairable, and the companies that made them are long out of business, so set your expectations for that. It simply may not be able to be repaired. But in this case, Tip Top was able to solve it! They ordered the cap, phoned me when they received it, about 3-4 weeks, scheduled a 2 hour time window, called 10 minutes ahead, and installed it. On their visits they were quick and efficient. They work as a good team sequencing tools and materials for the next step. Tobias was up on the roof before I was outside. Mike had packed the construction waste before Tobias was down from the roof. They had already done 5 appointments before my noon appointment and they order them by neighborhood. There is a famous saying: "Cheap, fast, or good; pick two." Tip Top is all 3, as well as knowledgeable, communicative, and polite. Their charge, with 2 trips, and the replacement part was very reasonable. Recommended! Note they are a small company - voice call and text. They also join my homeowner collection of contractors and suppliers. (I would also say, read the filtered - not recommended - reviews. Yelp filters for good reasons, and some people only write a few Yelp reviews, never getting beyond the filter. That is fine. But the filtered reviews all seem very consistent.)

They removed the original brick and then they never came back. Lots of missed appointments, and no-shows. A lot of no callbacks. They disappeared halfway through the project, leaving my house with an exposed wall for months. Eventually, they canceled the project and did not provide a refund. We had to hire another company to fix/finish their work. I spent thousands of extra dollars as a result of hiring them.

We had our chimney and wood-burning fireplace inspected and cleaned. We probably haven't done it…read morein 15 years or so. The inspection confirmed what we already knew, the masonry and flashing on the chimney were failing. We have seen the mortar falling out onto the roof for years. Both the inspectors and the masons were amazed that we had no leaking. So we got a quote we were happy with and Chimcare sent Igor (and to be honest, his wife deserves a shoutout too, but I don't recall her name). They tore down the bricks, mortar and the old flashing and replaced it all with new materials. We also had the brick sealed and a chimney cap installed to keep water out. Igor worked efficiently, quickly and cheerfully and the quality of workmanship is outstanding.

When we scheduled the appointment all he did was ask for our address and we coordinated a time and date for the appointment. When he arrived at hour home, he moved the screen away from our fireplace and used a flashlight to look up into the chimney. Immediately he identified a coil/vent and stated that we can't section off the chimney because likely that was the exhaust to our water heater and/or furnace. He went outside, looked up at the chimney and opined that was in fact what it was. Throughout this 15-20 minute exchange he spent the majority of the time talking about random facts about himself ie, when he purchased his home, for how much, the interest rate etc. We were polite and listened to him speak, waiting for a break so that we could walk him out. When we walked him out he turned and said, normally I charge $150.00 for an inspection, how does $80.00 sound? I was dumbstruck. At no point were we ever told about a service fee and no inspection was completed. We paid him the $80.00 and it hasn't sat right with us since. We feel taken advantage of and duped. We get quotes all the time and have never been charged, as its simply the cost of doing business; quoting jobs for potential work. The best part, he commuted less than a mile from his home to ours. We are very disheartened by this experience and hope that this doesn't happen to others.

I had our contractor friend take a peak after The Top Hatter reported all this last year, after I hired Top Hatter to clean out our chimney. The company I had hired the 2 years before, reported nothing of the sort. Our contractor friend agreed with Top Hatter's report, and said the price they quoted was fair. I misplaced the the quote/paperwork from last year. And wasn't even sure which company had made the report. I called Top Hatter the other week, inquiring if they are the company who had seen us last year. The lady who answered the phone was cheery, did a quick search for my account, and had all the notes from last year, in front of her, in the company's system, with in seconds. We will be hiring Top Hatter for the work soon. Top Hatter was also honest, in that the work could wait a few years. Only not to use the fireplace, until the work has been done. 2017 #19
