    Hands down the best in quality, value and no nonsense service. Incredibly reasonable and reliable…read more I've had Pete do speciality work on fireplaces and wood-burning stoves and always been really happy withi his work.

    Peter came to check and let us know the actual situation for our chimney. He arrived at the agreed…read moreupon time and told us the chimney was clean and in perfect condition to use. Charged very reasonable fee and told us to be careful about the scammers. Great experience for us! Let me share my tenants' report about the scammers. "At the request of the owner of the home we lease, I reached out to A1 Chimney to inspect and clean two fireplaces In our rental and one fireplace in the owners home in anticipation of the season. A1 had solid reviews from the BBB site and so I scheduled them to come for Friday the 14th. Sean arrived and suggested he would take interior pictures of the respective flus to inspect their fitness for fires. It took him less than 10 minutes to assess that neither flu was up to code and that without extensive work (some $5400) by their company, the chimneys could not be cleaned or used. Additionally, he suggested that the flu connected to the furnace was leaking carbon monoxide into the home at very small levels (he described it like a straw with holes in it) whenever we ran the furnace. He insisted for our safety we should turn the heat off (in November) and leave the home until the flu could be addressed with a new stainless steel liner at a cost of $4200. At one point his exact words were "You could die if you stay here and use that furnace." He provided three reports all of which suggested the flues were not at code and that until the owner scheduled the work, he could do nothing further. Two hours later, he called my phone to tell me that he had not meant to suggest we needed to leave the home and that we were not in immediate danger. However, by that time, we had alerted the landlord to the issue causing all kinds of commotion on a late Friday evening. We called an HVAC company recommended by Angies list who came over immediately to review his findings. Their assessment was that there was no need for the scare tactic and that we were not in imminent danger. He suggested we call our oil company to inspect the furnace to confirm his findings. There are five adults living in the house we are leasing and the stress and worry brought on by Seans analysis caused unnecessary f fear and panic. His suggestion, that we could die if we stayed in the home was a flat out lie as was confirmed as such by the additional HVAC company that came out that night and again by another chimeny inspection company that landlord hired to review A1's finding!"

    Bob Laudette, owner of James Carboni Plumbing and Heating…read morefor over 33 years, was negligent in fulfilling his contract upon the installation of the furnace on December 3, 2019.  "ALL WORK WILL BE PERFORMED IN A NEAT AND PROFESSIONAL MANNER AND WILL MEET OR EXCEED ALL STATE AND LOCAL CODES."   Obviously he did not inspect the installation of the project on December 3 or he was not up to date on building codes.  The building inspector gave him 3 citations for code violations.The chimney clean out door was cemented ..a potential fire hazard. Contrary to Bob Laudette's explanation, the chimney was serviced prior to installation and given a stamp of approval!  The oil line was not protected properly and would cause a major oil leak if someone tripped over it and dislodged it; the duct work/ bonnet was installed with major gaps heating the basement to over 90 degrees. Besides the citations for code violations, Bob Laudette has ignored issues with the furnace and units: combustion issues with small explosions, malfunctioning humidifier, blower so powerful it rattles doors, oil leaks, filters to keep the blower working properly and to insure quality of inside air malfunctioning, extensive dust, uniform distribution of heat is deplorable with the basement heated at 90 degrees and the upstairs rooms are cold. All this for $7500? Now Bob Laudette wants to come and service the new furnace three months later after he ignored numerous calls in January and in fact cancelled a service call. At that point, I had to call reputable and licensed contractors to check out the furnace but the problems still persist. I contacted other agencies for help.  Consumer Protection who has limited authority suggested I pursue legal representation.  My mother, Amelia Wakely, expected and paid for what she thought was an up to date working oil furnace. Why would anyone keep a lemon; deal with a company who fails to treat a client in a professional manner or not at all; who does substandard work and delivers a defective product and writes they have a great business ethic!  Could Bob Laudette possibly service the furnace in the future if he can't deliver an up to date American Standard working furnace now? My mother wants her money returned, the furnace and so forth removed, and the mess they left cleaned up. Bob Laudette did not install a system free of charge out of the goodness of his heart. Lastly, my mother's health living under these conditions has deteriorated since the furnace was installed December 3,2019 . With the pandemic, the directive now is to shelter in the safety and comfort of your home. The safety of her home is a health hazard. How insensitive Bob Laudette is to suggest this is a frivolous matter! Hopefully our experience will save someone from grief in the future! Photos supplied upon request!

    So far so good. They are responsive. They will price job out the 28th and if all goes well they…read morecan do the job. But that being said the girls in the office have been great with communication ! And I appreciate that ! I'll write more after the 28th. But so far. 5 stars !
