The first time they came to perform maintenance on the pellet stove, the crew looked young, but I observed they were very experienced. The second they walk in the door they got right to work. They are very professional, courteous during the interactions and take the time to show you how everything works. Their honest in their evaluation of wear and tear and up front of potential costs should they see something that may need replacement. Scheduling and making payments is smooth with their operation. **2nd Interaction** My pellet stove stopped firing one day, and during a time where Maine was experiencing sub-zero temperatures. I called when they first opened and Don was able to get one of his crew to swing by the same morning to look at the issue. Within 15 minutes of walking in the door, the worker diagnosed the issue, changed out the part and had the pellet stove working. I am absolutely amazed and grateful that Don's Stove and Chimney is close by. They have experienced and professional staff that will amaze you every time. I will always support family-owned businesses and Don's is top notch in my book. If you are in their operating area and want a pellet stove installed, worked on or leverage all the other services they offer with chimney's don't hesitate and reach out. You will get the same top-notch treatment all their satisfied customers boast about on here and other review sites.

The Hearth Doctor had one job: install a fireplace. They failed at every turn…read more They claim they went "above and beyond." The photos show otherwise. We've owned and renovated three homes, and this was by far the worst experience we've ever had with any company. We hired Hearth Doctor to install a Renaissance 600 fireplace--a pricey, complex unit--and they botched it from start to finish. Safety ignored: They skipped a required radiation shield and told me to stuff insulation against the chimney pipe--an outright fire hazard. Only after I contacted the manufacturer did they reluctantly fix it, which meant removing a chimney already mounted two stories up. Timeline blown: A 2-day job dragged into 3.5 months, with constant delays and misinformation to my contractor. Poor workmanship: They mis-measured, forced rebuilds, denied necessary vents (later confirmed essential by the manufacturer), installed the unit with a broken door, then crudely bent the keyhole instead of replacing it. Finally, the fireplace was left visibly off-level, making finishing work nearly impossible. No accountability: Across six visits between June and September, I never received an apology. When I asked for a discount, they brushed me off, insisting they'd provided a "safe, functional, professional installation" that went "above and beyond" If this is their idea of "above and beyond," I shudder to think what "average" looks like. Bottom line: unsafe, sloppy, unprofessional. Save yourself the grief--do not hire this company.

After trying to contact multiple different chimney service companies for the last month, we were so…read morehappy when Pinckletink returned our phone call for a request. We had reached out to three other companies, two of which we never even heard back from and one who said they wouldn't come this far out to our house (only a town or two over.) We were in desperate need of a chimney sweep and inspection. The woman who returned my call was extremely friendly and knowledgeable and got us booked with an appointment for the following week on a Monday morning! The two gentlemen who showed up to our home were very nice, professional, and knowledgeable. They went right to work and seemed to have everything taken care of in not talk much time. Although I wish the results of our chimney inspection were better (thanks previous owners of the house), the inspection was thorough and seemed reasonably priced. The young gentleman who gave me the results of our inspection was actually the owner of the company and said they would be emailing over photos of the complete inspection along with an estimate for any repairs we would need to have done before potentially installing a wood stove. If you're in the need of any chimney servicing, I highly suggest Pinckletink. Friendly, professional, and knowledgeable!

That is why they are getting 2 stars. But his customer service leaves much to be desired. Communication was difficult, and when we showed up in a timely way to pick up our stove as requested, he was rude, told us we should have called first (they should have told us that, then!) and then, when we inquired about having the stove delivered instead (we'd just wasted a 2+ hour trip), told us that because delivery dates were scheduled out so far that we would have to pay another $100 for storage, in addition to the $150 delivery fee, to deliver the stove on THEIR timeline! All of this was said with no apology, never a smile, and no acknowledgement that they were the ones causing the long storage period, not us. We remained courteous throughout the encounter but came away extremely unimpressed AND nervous about how things will go if, God forbid, we ever need service or help of any kind from them. Takeaway: TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE so far.
