These guys are pros.The people in the office pick up the phone (unlike many other contractors) and are straightforward and friendly. The crew explained my options and were very clear about everything they were doing. The boss (over the phone) cleared up any issues I had and did everything to have me as a happy customer. The chimney cap looks perfect and the upgraded water heater and boiler lines look great.Great quotes, great price, great work, friendly people.I wonder if they do other work besides chimneys?

Another amazing job done by 1hr chimney. I have used them twice for fireplace repairs. Tony and the staff work extremely clean and professional. They start by laying down runners from the front door right to the work area. They explain what they are doing and let you know if they've found anything of concern. I can't recommend them enough. The techs that came to my house were Ivis and Bali . Both of them were absolutely amazing. Super cool, friendly and pure professionals. 1hour chimneys pricing is beyond great and very competitive. Thank you,1hr chimney!!
