    Advertising Review:

    BBB promotes truth in advertising by contacting advertisers whose claims conflict with the BBB Code of Advertising. These claims come to our attention from our internal review of advertising, consumer complaints and competitor challenges. BBB asks advertisers to prove their claims, change ads to make offers more clear to consumers, and remove misleading or deceptive statements.

    On July 5, 2023, BBB contacted the business regarding its continuous use of testimonials/reviews in its online advertising. According to BBB Code of Advertising, advertisers should ensure that testimonials and endorsement are not misleading and represent the current opinion of the endorser. A consumer endorser’s experience should reflect what users generally achieve, unless there is a clear and conspicuous disclosure of what the expected results will be.   Advertisers should not include claims in testimonials that they themselves cannot make and support.

    As a resolution, BBB is requested that the unverifiable BBB reviews advertised be discontinued. As of August 4, 2023, the business continued to advertise the testimonials/reviews and has not responded to letters sent.

      Service or Repair Issues
      Status:
      Unanswered
      We were referred to Best Chimney by a realtor in order to make some tuck pointing repairs on a chimney. While they were out we also had them look at suck pointing two rock retaining walls as well as our brick front stairs. We had the work done on May 2nd and were called to pay the total of $4200, which we did. When I checked all the work, and saw that our stairs had not been properly done, I contacted Ron to have them completed. Ron's people came out again to fix the issues on 5/20 but failed to fix the steps. When I reached out Ron told me "It probably wasn’t done because this is the contract Justin was working off of. I can have him touch up that area." - and that he would come back out and fix the steps. On June 15th I contacted Ron again to ask of he had simply given up on me and he said "If you can forward the color schemes to me, I’ll do the job.". I forwarded him the colors for the mortar. A month later I let Ron know I would look for other contractors and start a claim.

      They made the repairs and I paid them, but I am now having issues with the chimney is still leaking into the basement. My attempts to reach the company by using the phone number and contact form on the company website have been in vain. One response was they are real busy right now (its June) he knows I have a closing date on my house because of selling it. According to my contract with this company, the work comes with a 5 year workmanship warranty.This company is not making an actual effort to schedule and do repairs that will actually stop the leak in the basement. When *** came over he told me exactly what was wrong. They took two videos of their work that I never saw. Has to pay by check, the worker with *** stated they had problems with credit cards???
