Raccoons Gone!

Brandon did a great job expelling the raccoon family that decided to live in our chimney, and the cap he installed looks great.

Excellent technician

Danny was wonderful-- both times that he came out he was on time and I never felt like I was getting a big sales pitch from him. He patiently answered all my questions re: the chimney cap and gas logs, showed me before and after photos of the top of my chimney and just all-around was eager to help!

Chimney and Wildlife Specialists To The Rescue!

Chimney and Wildlife Specialists have come to the rescue once again. We previously called them to repair weather worn mortar and a leaking chimney. The repairs worked perfectly and the new chimney cap is quite attractive. We called them a couple of years later to ask for help with a problem that arises most years in early winter and then early spring- occasionally finding a lethargic wasp in the house- and they had the perfect remedy. They quickly return calls and carefully address inquiries. I love the text message confirmations and reminders in addition to emails. Both times the technicians who came (Brandon and Danny) were comfortable to work with, highly skilled, and kept us apprised of the progress of the process. The quote was divided into the various procedures so that we could choose the services that fit our budget. The price was a bit higher than some places but we used another company when we first moved here and later found that the mechanism that was installed as a "chimney cap" was essentially a coated wire shelf (think off brand Elfa) that was held on with a wire. Better quality service and products are definitely worth it. We have had two great experiences and highly recommend Chimney and Wildlife Specialists/The Hearthside Shop.

Highly recommend

We received excellent service from this company! Everyone did a fantastic job! What a wonderful group of people there are who work for this company. Tony, the owner, is knowledgeable, personable, and fair. Danny and his crew did a terrific job - they are all very hard workers. Carlo and his crew were the same way. Summer was very helpful, as well. I recommend this company to anyone who needs their chimney and fireplace redone.

Professionals in Every Way

Honest people who provided me a second opinion that saved us about 15,000 dollars, very good communicators as far as letting us know when they would come, and very good at educating us on services provided and maintenance.

Amazing Repair Work!

We've not been able to use our fireplace the entire time we've lived here, and after the snow in 2021, we wanted to get this resolved. We got an inspection done quickly, and then our repair was scheduled. We are very happy with the work completed and happy to finally feel safe using the fireplace.
