Can't find anyone to do chimney work Ours and our neighbors' house both need the chimneys re-pointed, but we have had zero luck over the last six months finding anyone to come out and do it. We've gone through probably a dozen contractors and it's been pretty much the same story - they come out, look, say they'll send an estimate, and vanish. One guy actually did come out to begin the work, but then decided he didn't feel like it. Houses are in Garfield. So if anyone knows of a non-flakey person or company who does this is would be much appreciated.

Hi, I used [Chimney Cricket](http://www.chimneycricketpgh.com) to repoint my chimney and they did a great job. Excellent communication--I asked for a quote via their website, they got back to me right away, we coordinated through email and they did a wonderful job. Price was better than I expected. The only issue may be that I'm in Allison Park, so I'm not sure if Garfield is out of their service area. Good luck!
Chimney sweep recommendations? Hello, I am looking to clean, close and do some work on chimneys on my house. All the chimney sweep info/reviews/recommendations I could find is outdated. Anyone have any chimney sweep recommendations?

Give [Chimney Cricket](http://www.chimneycricketpgh.com) a call. Family run, had em out a few years back for an estimate, didn't end up using them and ultimately had my chimneys closed by a mason due to structural issues, but they were knowledgeable and responsive.
