Positive:Professionalism,Quality,Responsiveness
Ron, Joel, and the 2 young installers were good to deal with. Dont let the young installers deter you. They were professional, experienced, honest, efficient and courteous. Lining my chimney was a little more involved. They did an outstanding job. Curtis Chimney is a good company.

The process of choosing what was right for us. We'll certainly rate once,the installation is complete.
Well, our stove was installed a few weeks ago. It came in before anticipated and was immediately scheduled for installation. The team quickly and efficiently removed our old stove and disposed of it. The new stove was installed by two men who knew their product and again efficiently installed our new stove. Went up on our roof to make sure everything was correct, and even cleaned our chimney. The installers were a pleasure to have in our home. Respectful of our things, polite and knowledgeable

I was completely satisfied with the whole experience . I had an inspection and told the guy what I had in mind. My chimney needed top work. and extended to be code hieght. Following the inspection I spoke with Joel who offered his ideas and recommendations.He was vey helpful. I wanted the top work and a stainless liner installed. He said they were about a month out and that is exactly what happened. They pulled my insert ,did the top work and installed the liner in about six hours. I have seen comments that say they're pricey. I say for the quality work they're right on. I highly recommend this

Had them come out and service my pellet stove and the experience was exceptional. Then I had them come hook up my gas stove and as good as the first experience was this was equally as poor. Waited for over a month for them to take a look at the problem and rather than calling me for clarification they made an assumption and left while doing nothing to resolve the situation and I was charged a fee for it. Disappointing after my initial experience was so positive. I would still use them for my pellet stove but looking elsewhere for alternative heating/gas options.
