    To Whom It May ******** Ripped-Off I recently contacted County Chimney Westchester ************ License #*********** located at *********************************************************** for chimney cleaning on 8/31/2022. The lady inspector/ Owner (********) who came to access the situation did not do any detail inspection, but then she told me I have a broken chimney liner which need to be replaced. As she knew I dont have much knowledge about it, she concluded by giving me an estimate of $2,700 for material and labor. She also demanded an immediate part payment of $1,700, and later she made some excuses and sent over two unqualified handymen into my house on 9/9/22 who dont know what to do.The lady in question came over to my house and said she just asked the guy to check the chimney and is cracked, so now they have to rebuilding the whole chimney before putting in the liner and that will cost me additional $5,000. At this point I refused to signed the second contract and told her to give some time to think about it, as the cost and the situation described was not sounding to me. I managed to get another contractor to access the whole chimney, and the contractors thorough assessment came out that my chimney DOES NOT USED LINER. It was built to work like that, I only need to fix the chimney and clean it thats.After I became aware of what I have what I need to do, I called *** ******** of the above company to address the situation with her and she will not listen and made a lot of stories and also started threating me with a lot of things including reporting me to the police. All I need from her and the ripped-off company is my full refund of $1,700, this is because my chimney does not use liner and I dont want to customize my chimney with liner. This is clearly a false statement from her and the company, my chimney is fine and I dont need her anywhere around my house.

    If I could give 0 stars I would. I contacted this business for an estimate on a chimney cleaning, once given we scheduled an appointment. For starters, the owner/inspector, whatever her title is with the business, has ZERO phone etiquette. On the phone less than 2 minutes. Gave no time frame and NO explanation of billing/payment options. As well as never giving me a name. Come the day of our appointment (01/03/24) she came with a handyman. The handyman cleaned our chimney while she sat in my house trying to chitchat almost as if she was trying to distract me from watching the handyman. Once supposedly done, she proceeded to give me the total amount for the service demanding a check immediately. I kindly said to her that if they expect a check the day of service then that MUST be mentioned on the phone. She quickly changed her payment method to wanting cash. Again, I explained to her nicely that if payment is wanted day of that should be explained prior to visiting. She got frustrated and insisted I leave a check in my mailbox for her to pick up tomorrow morning. I asked her where the check can be mailed, she gave me an address shown on the paperwork provided and I had told her Id mail the check. The following day (01/04/24) she started to harass me from 2 diff numbers from 8:30a to 10:30a. Even came to my home harassing my elderly grandmother for payment. She then proceeded to text me wanting a check saying I promised to leave it in the mailbox (which i never did). After explaining the miscommunication to her she threatened to come the following day with police for theft of services due to nonpayment to have me arrested when I had already promised a check to be mailed. This company is EXTREMELY unprofessional and EXTREMELY suspect. Definitely giving scammer vibes as well. NOT A COMPANY ANY ONE SHOULD USE.
