American Chimney Services

“I am an interior designer, and it is such a pleasure to work with a company offering such efficiency and consideration. Jose and his assistant did a beautiful job installing our fireplace, and the painting of the surround looks fantastic. They left everything in such a clean condition! We will be enjoying the warmth of our home for many years to come.”

ErgoDomo Builders

“They repaired some leaking pipes and dry rot for me, and did some work for my sister as well. They discovered that 90% of her heating vents were collapsed, so she was only getting 10% of the heat! They are all such nice, multi-talented people. They were always on-time, and made sure I was happy.”
