After calling multiple vendors who all basically told us that we would have to stay in this cold for two more days until the stores opened on Monday, Bob from Ageless came in as an answer to out prayers! Him and his team got to work on the chimney (which vents the air from the boiler) immediately! He understood that we couldn't just stay in the house without heat and risk bursting the water pipes, put in a temporary chimney pipe and within few hours we had heat in our house!! When the stores opened on Monday him and his team got to work with the insulated pipe and replaced the temporary chimney! The work was done professionally and quickly! We highly recommend Bob and Ageless Chimney to everyone!! read less

I knew i needed a liner, and was worried that the damage to my chimney would get worse the longer i waited. I was also nervous about carbon monoxide back drafting down the chimney. I never expected them to be able to even come by on the same day for an estimate. I was super surprised when they made it to my house at 3PM and had the liner in the truck ready to be installed. My wife said the work was done very fast, the employees were extremely nice and very helpful. They left my house with no mess, and very clean. I just would like to thank everyone involved in making this a super easy installation and way faster than i ever imagined. I appreciate the attention to detail, cleanliness, and quality workmanship. I cannot thank you or recommend you all enough.
Thank you for all of your help today. read less

The guys showed up and really took care of business. We had the upper portion of our chimney rebuilt and it looks amazing. Very clean job. We also had the metal chimney liner put in and now we don't have to worry about the old terra cotta lining. Bobby and the guys at Ageless Chimney are professional, knowledgeable, clean and on point. Highly recommend. read less

From that first call to the completion of the job, the many 5 star reviews were right on -- so I'm adding one.
Joe and his assistant arrived early and got right to work, quoting me a very fair price for a full sweep. Little did he know that he would find triple the amount of soot than generally encountered.
Not only did they complete the job with no additional cost (I would have understood an upcharge for the amount of work), but Joe suggested we have the burner serviced as the amount of soot indicated to him a potential failing unit.
These guys did a great job, kept a dirty job from messing up the house -- and made a friend with my dog! They also have a loyal customer moving forward. read less

Right from the phone call to the installation. The receptionist scheduled someone to come out and called me to let me know they were on there way. Bobby arrived on time, with his crew, and provided me with a full explanation of what needed to be done, what materials he uses, all the material specifications, how the chimney liner installation was to be done, cost and warranty. He was neat and clean and made sure I was satisfied throughout each step of the installation.
As an Engineer, I expect someone who is knowledgeable, experienced, affordable (within reason), and can produce good quality work. Bobby from Ageless Chimney met all those qualities and deserves this review. read less

She scheduled to have someone come out for an estimate a few days after my call. Someone called to confirm the appt a couple of days prior.

Everyone I interacted with on this repair was so pleasant and friendly! Would not hesitate to use them again or to recommend to others. read less

Found ageless chimney on Yelp. They responded right away. We set a date and two men came. I think it was an owner and a helper. The owner gave an estimate and we hired him.

They paid everything (except the deductible) and said the price we were charged was a very fair, good price. The whole experience was easy and not stressful at all.

After having some bad experiences (where I was overcharged and underwhelmed by the service), I turned to Yelp and found Ageless.

Signs You Need to Hire a Pavement Company to Repair Your Paved Surfaces
In Great Neck, NY, pavement is one of the most commonly used materials for parking lots, patios, walkways, driveways, and various other hardscape structures. Compared to other materials, it’s affordable and when it’s installed properly, it’s durable and visually pleasing, too. However, despite all of these benefits, pavement only lasts so long. Constant exposure to the harsh sun, extreme temperatures, snow, ice, and rain, combined with wear and tear from regular use, eventually, even when it’s expertly installed, pavement is going to need to be repaired.
A reputable and experienced Nassau County pavement company that uses state-of-the-art equipment and top-quality materials can make the repairs that your pavement needs to reinforce its strength and restore its aesthetic appeal. How can you tell when your paved surfaces need to be repaired? If you notice any of the following signs, you should seriously consider getting in touch with professional local paving companies near you as soon as possible.
Fatigue cracking, also called “alligator cracking”, refers to a collection of interconnected cracks that appear on the surface of a paved surface. It’s one of the most common forms of pavement distress and it occurs as a result of fatigue failure of hot asphalt mix (HMA) surfaces, which typically is caused by repeat exposure to heavy traffic. Fatigue cracking can also occur when the materials that are used to pave a structure are poor-quality or they aren’t mixed properly. The series of cracks resemble the marks on the back of an alligator, hence why they’re also known as “alligator cracks”.
If you notice any cracks in the surface of your paved structures, you should get in touch with a reputable Nassau County pavement company sooner rather than later. The longer you put repairing the damage off, the worse it will become, and eventually, the structural integrity of the entire surface could become compromised and more extensive and expensive repairs will be required.
Drainage Issues
Water and pavement don’t mix, which is why proper grading is so crucial when a paved surface is being installed. When water pools up on the pavement, it can weaken and seep into the material, and as the temperature fluctuates, the moisture freezes and thaws, causing the pavement to expand and contract. Eventually, the surface of the structure will start to crack. Pooling water can also erode a paved surface and eventually, it can break down the foundation, which provides structural support. The bottom line: standing water can severely damage the structural integrity of your pavement.
If pools of water collect on the surface of your driveway, walkway, patio, or any other paved structure that you may have, start researching “paving companies near me”. The longer the problem persists, the worse the damage will become and you may need to have the entire surface torn out and replaced.
Fading
It’s no secret that the sun’s UV rays are harsh, but what you may not know is that the sun can be so strong that it can even damage otherwise durable materials, such as pavement. Constant exposure to the sun can bleach out the pigments used in the pavement that gives it that dark black color, and eventually, it starts to look gray. Fading not only impacts the aesthetic appeal of a paved surface, but it can also weaken the structure, as it makes the material more brittle, and eventually, it will start to crack.
If your pavement looks more gray than black, contact local paving companies near you. They can make any necessary repairs and apply seal coating to restore the durability and the look of the surface.
Does your pavement look like it’s uneven or even wavy? If so, those are signs of warping and buckling, two issues that can happen if the structural base was not properly installed or if it has become compromised as a result of excessive use, extreme temperatures, or exposure to moisture. A warped or buckled parking lot, driveway, or sidewalk not only looks unpleasant, but it can also be extremely dangerous, as it can increase the risks of trips and falls or damage the vehicles that drive over it.
Sinkage
Asphalt pavement is laid over a compacted base or crushed stone, which supports the structure. Over time, the base can erode, which can cause the pavement that sits on top of it to sink down. Sinkage can also happen if the base material wasn’t properly installed. This problem is usually first spotted in areas that are located where vehicles are frequently parks (you may see dips where the tires sit in your driveway, for example), or by any other heavy structures that may be sitting over the surface of the pavement, such as a carport.
Stains
Lastly, if you notice any stains on the surface of your pavement, you should reach out to a Nassau County pavement company. Stains can occur for a number of reasons, including automotive fluids, paint, and even some types of cleaning solvents. In addition to being unsightly, stains can cause extensive damage, as they can literally eat away at the agents that are used in the asphalt pavement to bond the materials together. Having a professional and experienced Great Neck, NY paving company address the stains will restore the look of your pavement and prevent further damage.
If you’re experiencing one of the above-mentioned issues, you’re having any other problems with your pavement, or you’d just like to have a professional seal coat the surface of your paved structure, contact the company that Great Neck, NY property owners call first when they need the services of local paving companies near me: Ageless Masonry. Our team of professionals will perform a thorough assessment of your pavement and will make all of the necessary repairs, quickly and affordably.
