Rebuild the top of a two-flue chimney and replace more deteriorated bricks
This house is about 23 years old and the chimney top had already been rebuilt about a dozen years ago by another company which poured a new concrete cap and installed new flues. This repair failed and I got quotes from two other companies.
I went with Quality Restorations after speaking with Doug Pearce, the owner. He impressed me with his experience and knowledge, and his quoute was detailed and competitive.
He sent Carl and a helper to do the work and it was completed to my satisfaction in about one and a half days, longer than they had expected because of the need to cut up the massive poured concrete cap mentioned above. Although it was not possible to get a perfect match of brick, they did get a reasonable facsimile.
Once done, they did a great job cleaning up the yard. One small quibble, after the recent heavy rains, I found a bunch of brick chunks and residue coming down from the eavestrough into rain barrel my wife uses to water her sensitive plants and flowers.
Other than that, I am well satisfied.

Thanks for good review Tom - I'll pass it along to the men... as well as the note about the small
bits of masonry in the downspout. Even though all the bits washed out with the first rain, a more thorough clean up is a standard part of our work.
