“Technician Clay’s arrival to my residence was prompt. The technician was courteous and professional. He immediately identified the issue with my fireplace and installed, on the spot, the “Bi Fold Doors,” which fit my fireplace opening perfectly! I’ve been seeking to get this fit for a while and he solved the issue in minutes. Technician Clay was very knowledgeable and answered all my concerns regarding the fireplace! Technician Clay represents this company to the highest level of excellence!”

“Clay installed 2 fireplaces in our new construction home. We had 1 indoor and 1 outdoor fireplace. He did a fantastic job. He always showed up as promised and communicated well throughout the project.”

“I was very appreciative we found this company to clean and inspect our gas fireplace. We had a bad experience with another company and this group made us feel at ease. They were prompt, honest and the outcome was more than we could have expected. Customer satisfaction oriented and attention to detail. I would have given them 1,000 stars. Look forward to doing business with you again.”

“Excellent services! Clay did a great job from start to finish. No mess left either! Old school professional. He explained everything upfront and displayed his expertise as he worked. Clay replaced our cap on top of chimney and reflectors inside the fireplace as well as fixed the flue! I would highly recommend Clay to anyone who needs grill or fireplace work. The best thing, the price was extremely reasonable.”

“Great experience with having my outdoor fireplace swept. The technician was on time, knowledgeable, put tarps down and cleaned up after the service. He showed me pictures of my chimney before and after and went through his inspection results. I have the peace of mind now to use the fireplace again. I highly recommend using this company for an honest and easy chimney sweep.”

“I was having an issue with the stove pipe on my wood stove leaking water in my house… I called 1st Choice Residential, the next day their tech Clay arrived early and identified the problem in 5 minutes. Clay had the entire job finished in less than an hour. Professional, knowledgeable and most of all affordable! I would highly recommend 1st Choice Residential!!”
