Reputable chimney inspector and maintenance
Hello All,
bought the house back in April, home inspector said both fireplaces were fine. Brought in a chimney inspector after purchasing for another inspection and cleaning, (he is listed on this list, don't want to trash anyone, just want someone who is trustworthy and reliable). He said the upstairs one was fine and didn't even need to be cleaned but the downstairs one we shouldn't use and needed a new lining and etc. etc. Lots of dough! So I brought back the home inspector because I was upset that he said they were both okay. He looked at it again and said it was fine and that the other guy just wanted to make money off me. So I called the guy listed below who was suppose to get back to me with an estimate and never did. His wife said he would get back to me, and once again he never did.
So, I want to bring someone else in because I do not feel messing around with fireplaces is a laughing matter. Now that it is colder we have been using the upstairs fireplace but it seems like when we go downstairs there is a bit of a smokey smell from the other one which has not been used and has a separate flu.
If anyone knows of someone who is reliable and trustworthy please let me know.
Thanks,
LucyGoose
