    Complaint Type:
    Service or Repair Issues
    Status:
    Answered
    Santa's Chimney Service was supposed to fully repoint my chimney and install a new crown with rain caps. Not only do I believe they failed to properly complete the job, they also caused damage while doing the work and refused to fix it. I have been discussing it with them for two months now and throughout those discussions they have been **********, ************ and *********. I am now requesting your help as we clearly need a third party's opinion. I would like a refund for the $2600 I have already paid, the contract to be cancelled, as well as compensation for the damages they caused. Further details are attached in the request I sent them to cancel the contract which they denied.

    * ****** 5 min look at my stove and stated and concluded that it was not able to be used.. could possibly be a catastrophic event if used; didn’t inspect inside or around the stove just went on the soot from the chimney(which is normal). Took my hundred bucks and flew down the driveway. Later learned this is his MO; not a very good business. Stay away and get someone reputable.

    **** *** *** ******** * ******* ******** **** ** ***** ** *** ********* **** ******** ****** ***** *** ******** ******* *********** ***** ********** * **** *** ****** *** ******* ****** ******** *** ***** *** **** ****** Sir, I did inspect your system. You were explained in those 5 or so minutes, why your system is not safe to use. It is not because of soot, as you say. You were also given the option, by myself, to have the chimney swept and your unit serviced. You opted to not use the system and pay the $100 service fee. You were happy with that and I left the house. My M.O. is to keep my customers safe, first and foremost. If I was wanting to **** you, I would have done the sweep, charged you $200 as we agreed and out the door I go. I did not do that. Ethics, morals and professionalism is what I am dedicated to. You say I "Flew down the driveway." I do not drive fast or recklessly. We serve hundreds of HAPPY customers annually. We can come back out to explain what you may misunderstood about your system. No additional fee.
