I asked around for recommendations. Friends, neighbors, & other trades that I respected had no one to recommend. I had no recourse but to go online. With much trepidation I got 3 estimates from total strangers. However, apart from the much better price of the work , I felt most comfortable with ageless chimney because they came highly rated from BBB, Angie's list & a number of other rating organizations. I truly made the right decision. Sherwood, one of the owners could not have been nicer. His crew was extremely professional & efficient. He even went so far as to repair something in my boiler room that had nothing to do with the chimney ( at no cost). Great job, price & experience. I would highly recommend them. read less

I just moved into a new house and found out that my gas could not be turned on because there was something wrong with the chimney.
I called Ageless Chimney at 10:30 and they were here by noon. They quickly figured out the problem and actually had all of the material with them (which was a pleasant surprise since I had no idea what the issue was).
They replaced the liner in no time at all and went above and beyond to make sure my chimney was in perfect condition for years to come.
From the office staff to the techs you could not ask for better customer service and professionalism. read less

Our company does roofing, and we constantly see older chimneys that need repair after our roofing work is completed. We found them on yelp based on their reviews, and they've never let us down. I highly recommend Bobby and his crew, they won't let you down I can assure it. read less

The crew arrived right on time after calling in advance to confirm their arrival. Once they got here, they scoped out the problem (basically an old roof in need of repair) and declined to charge anything--even for their time. I was prepared to spend several hundred dollars to fix the problem. Having been recently scammed by an earlier chimney con artist who asked my parents to shell out more than 1k for essentially no work, we were surprised and grateful for the honesty of these guys. We will call them again if we have any more problems. 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

I felt like the guy was jerking me around and he was a kind of shady. I researched some other companies and got a recommendation from my cousin to use Ageless. I dealt with Sherwood who was excellent and a true professional. He gave me an honest quote and showed me the work he was going to do and even got me up on the roof to point out somethings. Himself and partner did great work and I'm very happy with my choice. I highly recommend using Ageless Chimney. read less

After having some bad experiences (where I was overcharged and underwhelmed by the service), I turned to Yelp and found Ageless.
Sherwood came to my house promptly and was a complete professional - and extremely personable! Their prices were extremely reasonable and the work was done well. Did I also mention they rescued a family of baby birds that took up residence in my chimney?! Ha!
I will absolutely use them again. 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 did the work same day. They were very professional, courteous and very clean. We submitted the claim to our insurance company. 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.

They are consumate professionals. I was in need of a walkway to be built in front of my 94 year old mother's house. This was a logistical nightmare as I live 60 miles away. Communicating with Sherwood either directly or through Cheryl was easy, effective and efficient. I was offered 2 options, pavers or cement and 2 estimates for the job. We opted for the pavers which were slightly more expensive but well worth it in my opinion. Sherwood and his team were prompt, organized and did a wonderful job. I appreciate integrity and would not hesitate to use them again. read less

Not only were they punctual and courteous but they did an amazing job updating the inside and outside of my chimney. Those of you from Levittown know that these houses have been around the block and then some. After coming by to give us an estimate on a chimney cap, they noticed that the top three rows of our chimney was coming apart. With winter coming around the corner, I didn't want to waste any time getting the job done. These guys knew things were getting pretty busy as well and were able to fit us in that day. In a matter of two hours they completely re-did the masonry on our chimney, inserted a stainless steel liner, and installed an new flue and cap.
Their attention to detail while minimizing the impact to a lazy Saturday afternoon was much appreciated by me and my wife. I recommend this family owned business to anyone needing that special attention to their chimney and home. read less

Whether you’re looking to have your driveway expanded, you want to install a new patio, or your crumbling walkway needs to be redone, no matter what type of paving project you have in mind, you want to be sure that you choose the best paving company to do the job.
You won’t have a hard time finding a paving company in Kensington, NY; just type “paving companies near me” into your search engine and you’ll find several different companies to choose from. But just because there are several contractors that offer paving services in Nassau County, that doesn’t mean that they’re all reliable. You want to be certain that the company you hire is reputable, experienced, and can deliver high-quality, long-lasting results for a fair and affordable price. How do you do that? By taking the time to research a few different contractors instead of just settling on the first one that comes up in your search results. When you’re researching paving companies near you, here’s a look at some key factors that you should be looking for that indicate a Nassau County contractor is reputable and worth hiring.
Are They Insured
Never hire a paving contractor who isn’t insured, as doing so could result in serious problems down the road. In Kensington, NY, paving companies are legally required to carry insurance; however, that doesn’t mean that they all do. Maintaining insurance can be pricey and to keep expenses down, some contractors don’t have adequate coverage or worse, they aren’t insured at all. The last thing you want to do is find out that you needed the protection that insurance provides only to find out that the paving company you hired isn’t covered.
A reputable Kensington, NY paving company will have general liability insurance, and if they have a team of technicians, they’ll also have workers’ compensation coverage. If a paving company damages your property, their general liability policy will cover the related costs, and if one of their employees is injured on the job, their workers’ compensation insurance will cover the cost of any necessary medical care, etc. If the paving company you hire isn’t insured and they damage your property or a member of their crew is injured while working on your project, you will be liable. To avoid major headaches and unnecessary expenses, when you’re researching local paving companies near you, make sure that you find out about insurance first. A word of caution: don’t take the contractor’s word; verify coverage. A reputable paving company will be more than happy to share proof of insurance.
When you’re researching paving companies near you, licensing is something else you’ll want to confirm. In order to offer services in Nassau County, a paving company has to be licensed. Like insurance, however, just because it’s required doesn’t mean a contractor is licensed.
A license serves as proof that a paving company has completed all necessary training to properly install paved surfaces and adheres to local building and safety codes and regulations. Furthermore, a licensed contractor will apply for any permits that may be needed in order to complete your project. By hiring a licensed paving company, you’ll have peace of mind knowing that your paved structure will be safe, correctly installed and that it will satisfy all local codes. Before you hire a paving company, be sure to ask for a license number and check with the Better Business Bureau or the State of New York to confirm that the license is valid.
Do they Use the Right Equipment?
The type of equipment a paving company uses will have a huge impact on the outcome of your project. The best Nassau Count paving contractors will use the most advanced and well-maintained tools and equipment. If the machinery they use is old and broken down, chances are the finished product will be of poor-quality, and when it comes to paving, you don’t want to settle for anything less-than-excellent. If a paving company uses unmaintained, out-of-date machinery, consider that a red flag and keep on looking. There’s a good chance that your paved surfaces will be uneven, prone to puddling and that it will start to degrade pretty fast.
Do they Use High-Quality Materials?
Just like equipment, the type of materials a paving company uses will have a direct impact on the finished product. You want your driveway, walkway, patio, pool surround, or whatever other paved surfaces you’re having installed to not only be aesthetically pleasing, but you also want to ensure that it’s durable and long-lasting. Be sure to ask about the type of materials a paving company uses before hiring. A reputable Nassau County pavement company will use high-end materials from well-known manufacturers that will be able to withstand the elements and maintain its visual appeal and structural integrity for a long time.
Do they Pay Attention to Detail?
The best way to see what kind of results you can expect is by asking to view samples of the paving companies near you that you’re thinking about hiring. A good Kensington, NY contractor will proudly show their work; perhaps they’ll take you to a parking lot they paved or a driveway they installed, for example. Closely examine their work. Are there smooth transitions from older paved surfaces to the structures they installed? Does the surface appear even and are the edges clean? Is there any evidence of puddling or does it appear as if water properly drains off the surface of the pavement? Did they apply a coat of primer? The best pavement companies near you know that the small details matter and have a big impact on the overall look and function of the finished product.
A good Nassau County paving contractor will be fair and flexible with payments. You shouldn’t be required to provide a down payment. If a paving company does require a down payment, that may indicate that they aren’t as reputable as they claim and don’t have access to funding or lines of credit with suppliers and rely on down payments from clients’ in order to purchase materials. Plus, contractors who charge a down payment may misuse your funds or may never return to do the job after you put money down.
Another important note regarding payments: in order to accommodate the needs of their clients, a reliable contractor will accept several forms, including cash, check, and credit card.
