Description

We reached out to a chimney cleaning service and scheduled an appointment for an estimate. They arrived yesterday gave us an estimate of $1000 for two chimneys and one repair job. He did the work, asking to use the bathroom twice, making a mess on our back deck, breaking our gutter and asked us to write a check for $1000 to LR Service Group. We wrote the check. He asked me to get him a bottle of water before he left, we don't have any so I let him have some water from a cup. Very odd behavior. He called us from 704-506-0501. The company Zen Chimney called us today saying our appointment was for today. We told them someone came out and they said they didn't know who Ron Dahan was. Now we are concerned someone was in our house and we don't know why they were there or what they were really doing.
