Comments: Peter was very responsive and honest. Work was done in a timely manner and he even pointed out other issues with our chimney that we weren't aware of. We only had a small issue with the office. We were sent a statement with incorrect information and when we asked for clarification on one of the terms listed on the website, it took a few days to get a clear response. Other than that, we had a good experience and would hire them again.

Review Date: 07/20/2018 | Author: Al or rickey N.

Comments: hired Northstar Restoration to inspect and clean two fireplaces and chimneys. The work was done in two phases. Jimmy was on time, worked clean, and explained all the work in detail. He needed to come back because there was a significant creosote buildup in one of the chimneys. He explained in detail, showed pictures, and stated that he would be back a week from the day he did the initial work. When no one showed, I contacted the company and was told that no appointment had been made and the person on the phone needed to check with another person the next day. When we called the next day we were told that someone would be there the next week to complete the job. This was very inconvenient and we had paid half theist in advance. The technician came a week later and completed the additional cleaning and inspection. The work was done very well and we can enjoy out fireplace. I recommend them highly.

Comments: Somehow this company mistakenly ended up in my work to be done list. They called and were extremely polite even though it was not something I requested. I was upset at a project that was done from another company in their line of work. They were empathetic and explained their work ethic and will definitely be a company I would prefer to work with in the future.

Review Date: 05/06/2018 | Author: Sheila D.

Review Date: 05/06/2018 | Author: Gary D.

Comments: The inspector was on time and professional. After the inspection he explained the results and was able to answer questions. I would use them again.

Review Date: 05/03/2018 | Author: Sam C.

Comments: Peter was responsive as well as knowledgeable regarding the function and expected performance of our older fireplace. After performing an extensive inspection, Peter made sound recommendations and then executed the repairs he prescribed in a timely fashion. Initially it seemed to be an overly expensive repair, however it didn't take long to realize the cost of this repair far out weighed the cost of the potential disaster that was just a matter of time. It would be unrealistic to expect Peter to be any more communicative or professional through out the entire process...I recommend him in all earnest.

Comments: Excellent customer service. Super friendly and courteous technician explained every aspect of the job, showed us what he'd removed from the flue, inspected the chimney inside and outside, assured that no soot got on the floor, carpet, or furniture, was prompt and thorough and even checked that we had a fire extinguisher and smoke alarms. $230 for a job that took less than an hour seems a bit steep, but I am confident that the job was done thoroughly and correctly.

A team of two young people came and did excellent work, rapidly and efficiently. They were both quite well spoken, professional and cordial.

Comments: They came out to clean my chimney. The tech did a great job and said some repairs were needed. When I got the estimate of repairs I was shocked at the price and added a metal flue, which would cost me $2500 +. I didn't ask for a new metal flue...just want the repairs

Comments: Promp service response. They had to come back to clean a gutter they forgot to clean and the customer service responded promptly. The only reason I am not giving it a 5 star is because one of the customer service people email me back to tell me the invoice had already been sent to me when I asked for it- giving me the date it was sent for me to find--I found it snarky. It would have taken the same amount of time to resent the email with the invoice--just good customer service.

The entire process of assessment and corrective steps were transparent, understandable -- they showed my the pictures etc... You really have the sense of a company that puts clients first. Technically, I was impressed with the thoroughness of the cleaning...getting off the cap (!)...and uses the brushes all the way up to the second level... The whole thing made me feel a lot more secure about using this beloved fireplace with the regularity I do. Many thumbs up. (And yes, scheduled a cleaning already into next year..

Also ealking on top of the roofs. Enough said.

Comments: North Star appeared at my house before 2 hours before schedule. I was not home and they called me to inform me that they were in the process of cleaning my gutters. When I arrived to my house they were half way finished. They showed me how clogged and dirty my gutters were. I had not had them cleaned in over 15 years! Edgar showed me the dirt and even plant life that was in my gutter but miraculously the gutters were still in decent shape. I would use Edgar again, very thorough.

Comments: He was a great professional. The only thing is that they did not have their own drop clothes. Borrowed ours and should've returned them back the same or folded. Other than that they were great and on time.

Comments: The two gentlemen who came out were very nice and polite. They said that they have to come back when one of the gutters is dry so that they can repair it. I thought that they were upfront with me about the gutter repair so I hope that they will remember to do it when it is dry. All and all the service was good and they were here when they said they would be. Thank you Jose and Albert!

Comments: They did a thorough job of cleaning gutters and down spouts. They were professional and knowledgeable. But they did not do a good job of cleaning up after they were done, e.g. a trash bag of debris was left in backyard, driveway was left littered with debris, and they borrowed a hose and left it uncoiled after use.

Comments: The service was very good, my only gripe was that I was told that the cleaning would be $220. When he finished he gave me an invoice for $400 which I thought was pretty steep for adjusting the air flow so that the fire would burn cleaner, rearranging the artificial logs, and adding some embers. I ended up paying $380. The lesson here is to confirm the price before they do the job. But otherwise excellent service.

Comments: How, I feel I should have reduce about $25.00 more on the fireplace cleaning as I mentioned before due to the 25 minutes service done on the firepalce. Althe the time factor was great, consistently show up on time, and I did not have to wait for the service. This was an outstanding attinbute to the service from Northstar.. Mr. Evans notice another factors regarding my fireplace on the top of the roof and the heater that has to be check wihen the dryer is on. I otherwise appreciate the service, outstanidng.

Comments: Northstar, it's owner and crew are top notch! Professional, courteous, diligent, responsible and respectable. They communicated clearly, made suggestions without pressing that they do the work. Prepped and cleaned the area. You'd never known they were here except that now my fireplace looks brand new and the smoke smell is gone. Can't say enough about this company!

Comments: Came out and looked at our chimney for cleaning and inspection. Advised us on installing a new pipe insert, or spend $600.00 to $800.00 dollars for a full day cleaning, due to massive buildup. We elected to install the pipe due to finances, so he left without charging us anything! I wouldn't hesitate to call them back in the future.

Comments: Northstar (Peter & assistant) showed up on time, checked out the job, protected nearby surfaces, organized his equipment, went right to work and finished in less time than I expected. No running commentary about how hard the job was--just a professional attitude and a thorough job. I'm confident that Northstar will be my go-to chimney cleaner, and I've already recommended Peter to a couple of my neighbors. The price wasn't small, but the quality was worth it.

Comments: Northstar Cleaning is amazing! We were contacted by Northstar within minutes of submitting our request and they were able to come out the very next day. Peter was very professional and knowledgeable and made sure he kept us informed with his progress. Even with cleaning two 40+ year old chimneys, Peter worked quickly and was very clean, making sure to wipe up after himself. We will definitely call on Northstar Cleaning again and recommend them to our friends and family.

Comments: Peter at Northstar Cleaning Services is fantastic! He arrived promptly (@ 6am on a Sunday!) and was very courteous. He provided a step-by-step description of what he was doing and notified me right away when a problem was encountered. I feel confident that I received thorough and professional chimney service and dryer vent cleaning. I am so pleased with the quality of service, that I plan to have them come back to clean my air ducts. I also appreciate Peter's patience - I had lots of questions!

I was blown away about the professionalism and the great care given to my rental property. Both Perter and Daniel knew their job and...I am delighted to recommend Northstar to others needing air duct and /or fireplace cleaning. For once, I don't feel I have been taken advantage of.......what a blessing!!! Not only did they arrive on time, they work exceptionally well and talked to me about all procedures used to complete the job. Hats off to Northstar!!! I am no longer a "shopper" for such services, I am now, a Northstar customer!!

Comments: North Star did a very complete job. It was a very difficult situation and a very old chimney that had never been cleaned and had lots of problems. The main problem was that a huge tree branch fell on the chimney stack and broke it, the day before the chimney cleaning technician arrived. We definitely got our moneys worth. He even helped us install a used wood burning stove at no extra cost. Wow!
