2nd Gen is GREAT to work with. The communication is top notch and the work is even better. I will use them for as long as I have a chimney in my home. I look forward to trying their duct cleaning once we complete the demo in our new kitchen.

Worked well with another contractor during a recent installation of a new boiler. Focussed on doing his part in the installation. A related chimney inspection identified deficiencies in that structure that required attention to help prevent further structural deterioration.

A recent project involved the removal of an animal that had taken up residence in an unexpected area. Ensuring the safety and comfort of the inhabitants, I carefully and humanely removed the animal, ensuring it was relocated to a suitable environment. Following this, I installed two new screens to prevent future intrusions. These screens were meticulously measured, cut, and fitted to ensure a perfect seal and optimal functionality. Additionally, I installed rain covers to protect the screens from weather damage, enhancing their longevity and effectiveness. The installation process was thorough, ensuring that all components were securely fastened and functioning as intended. This project was completed with attention to detail and a commitment to providing a safe and comfortable environment.

I conducted a comprehensive annual maintenance service for the double chimney system, ensuring optimal performance and safety. This included a thorough cleaning of both chimneys to remove accumulated soot, creosote, and debris, which helps prevent potential fire hazards. A video inspection was performed using specialized equipment to visually inspect the interior of the chimneys for any signs of damage, blockages, or wear. This inspection provided valuable insights into the condition of the chimneys, ensuring they are safe for continued use. Additionally, I cleaned the dryer vents to remove lint and debris, which improves dryer efficiency and reduces the risk of dryer fires. This service ensures the home's heating and drying systems operate safely and efficiently.

A 5-inch chimney cap was installed, ensuring optimal performance and protection for the chimney system. The process began with a thorough inspection of the existing chimney structure to confirm its integrity and suitability for the new cap. The old cap was carefully removed, taking care not to damage the surrounding masonry. A 5-inch cap was then selected, matching the diameter of the chimney flue. Precision measurements were taken to ensure a perfect fit. The new cap was securely attached using high-quality materials and fasteners, ensuring it was firmly in place and aligned correctly. The installation was completed with a final inspection to verify that the cap was functioning as intended, providing a barrier against debris, weather elements, and potential pests. This meticulous process enhances the chimney's efficiency and longevity.
