Called Strictly Chimneys and spoke to Mike about turning up and cleaning a gas fireplace system for…read morea house I recently moved into. Though he specializes in wood fireplaces and would not be able to assist with my request at this time, he spent quite some time on the phone with me answering the many questions I had about my fireplace, and how I might be able to get it up to snuff. So rare to find a professional who is willing to give such detailed advice with no monetary gain for himself, and it was very obvious that he really knew what he was talking about. I may change my fireplace to a wood burner at a future date, and if I do, I will absolutely give this man my business. My gut tells me that anyone else wouldn't regret doing the same. I recommend Strictly Chimneys for sure!

Mike and his crew are professional and customer friendly. Pricing is very reasonable too. I hired them afterwards to complete the recommended chimney work: rebuilding 10 rows of brick, plus I added a chimney cap. I feel very pleased with their services. They only repair what is necessary and Mike always answers or returns calls promptly. Highly recommend!

No snap, crackle, or pop, and little heat from it. I contacted several prospective businesses using Thumbtack and chose GMT. The sales rep, Joe, informed me the previous work was not good or up to code and explained the problem and what they would to do fix it. This included demolishing the old chimney and replacing it, as well as putting in a new liner. They also did work in the basement to replace cracking seals and ducts. The result: The fireplace burns better than it ever has. I appreciate their work and highly recommend them.

I hired Northeastern Chimney to repair my chimney. The crown was the key element of the repair…read more Seven years and 5 months later, I found water was coming into my fireplace. Long story short, the crown was poorly built and had separated from the brick structure. This created a gap that allowed water to infiltrate the chimney. A well-built crown should last 15 to 25 years or more. Northeastern refused to acknowledge that their crown failed to meet industry standards and refused to refund the $1,100 I paid. They are unprofessional and untrustworthy.

All told it was just under $10k that I paid him. Well first rainstorm came and the chimney is leaking inside destroying the drywall. I called, emailed, texted, over and over and over to no avail. Finally got through to him (maybe he answered by accident) and he said he would be out to fit it at a date that was a month out. That date is today and obviously he never showed up and is not answering my phone calls. As a business owner myself, I don't know how he is still in business. If I treated my customers like this, nobody would hire me!

I should have known better. The guy came and spent about 20 minutes cleaning the liner. He must have hit a rough spot because he shook it so hard he broke all the mortar from around the furnace pipe. Shoved all the soot down to the furnace. Which I had to vacuum out myself. Left soot and mortar all over the basement. Called them the same evening and spoke to the owner, he said they would be out the next day to make repairs. No show, no call. No answer when I tried to call again. They burned me on this one. Wish I had gone with my gut. I'm sure they would have found a way to not honor the warranty anyway.
