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

Left no mess to be cleaned up, they were very careful when going in and out of the yard to make sure our dog didn't get loose. The work was done on time, on budget and with a 2 year warranty !! 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

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

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

Since I have absolutely no knowledge of chimney's, I was definitely nervous when shopping around for a chimney repair company. Luckily I came across Bobby and Sherwood at Ageless. These guys have a very personable and trustworthy approach to the business. They explain the work that needs to be done in simple terms, so I can understand.
I always recommend to my family and friends when anyone needs work on their chimney. Lucky to have found these guys! 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. Charlie and Terry showed up early (could it get any better?!) and my parents felt so comfortable with their ability to complete the work, they had them just take care of it on the spot! 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

Suffice to say we were lucky the safety switch was working. After being unsuccessful in contacting the individual he recommended, I asked for two estimates. Friends and experts admonished me that low prices could mean cheaper materials that can comprise more than benefit. With Ageless, I got the best of both business worlds in terms of price and quality.
Ageless was better than punctual and Keith and Bob could not have been nicer or more professional. Their price was by far much better than the national average I researched. Further, I was assured stainless steel materials would be used. This pledge was left in writing and also is featured on their website.
Without ever forcing me to make a decision with typical fearmongering or shady sales tactics, I was told they could do everything on the spot, exceeding my expectations. Given the weather was uncharacteristically warm, I confidently accepted the offer.
Keith was very patient answering any questions I had. I am impressed by professionals who do not dismiss our concerns that may seem trivial to them. In the meantime and unbeknownst to me, Bobby began to speak to my mother who is a good judge of character. She was delighted to say the least. Both representatives speak and act like gentlemen who do not take advantage of potentially vulnerable populations. Rather, they enhance your safety profile and desire to promote goodwill.
The work was meticulously neat and we were encouraged to call if any questions should arise with our boiler guy. Further, Keith and Bob did not recommend anything more than others were recommending which confirms their honesty.
I would recommend Ageless with no reservation and am very satisfied with the services rendered. read less

First off, I was extremely satisfied with their professionalism. I was really pleased with the fact that the owner of the company came with another contractor. Not only did he explain to the maintainence staff the services that we needed but he also explained it to myself and the other administrative staff members (there was a major repair that was needed). I was extremely satisfied with the work they did at my school so I hired them to do a roofing job on my home in addition to rebuilding my chimney. I have referred Ageless Chimney to my friends and family. I strongly feel that anyone would be crazy to hire another company. read less

Got my boiler running cuz it was like 30 degrees out here in New York and was able to get heat that night if it wasn't for these guys I don't know what I would have done thank you guys you're the best highly recommended 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

I originally asked for chimney and boiler sweep but one of the guys took a look and said I didn't need the boiler sweep which id have never known. They were fast and efficient.

Staff was knowledgeable and helpful as myself and my family have never owned a Fireplace. Will use again 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

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

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

Your chimney plays an important role in the comfort and aesthetic appeal of your Bethpage, NY home, and making sure it’s properly maintained is essential. At Ageless Masonry, we specialize in masonry repair, ensuring that your chimney and other masonry structures remain in excellent condition. Here are the top signs you should contact a masonry contractor for brick chimney repair.
Crumbling Mortar and Bricks
One of the most obvious signs that you need a masonry contractor is crumbling mortar or bricks. Over time, the mortar holding your bricks together can deteriorate, leading to gaps and weakened structures. If you notice loose bricks or deteriorating mortar, it’s essential to seek professional masonry services. Repointing of brickwork, also known as repointing, involves replacing the old mortar with new material to restore the chimney’s integrity.
White Staining (Efflorescence)
Efflorescence is a white, powdery residue that appears on bricks due to water evaporation. While it might seem like a minor aesthetic issue, it indicates excess moisture within the masonry. Moisture can cause significant damage over time, leading to the need for extensive brick repair. If you see efflorescence on your chimney, it’s time to call Ageless Masonry for an inspection and necessary repairs.
Spalling Bricks
Spalling occurs when water enters the brick, causing it to flake, peel, or pop out. This problem is particularly common in areas with freeze-thaw cycles, which can exacerbate the damage. Spalling not only affects the appearance of your chimney but also its structural integrity. Our masonry company in Bethpage, NY can address spalling issues efficiently, ensuring your chimney remains safe and sturdy.
Chimney Leaks
Water leaks are a clear sign that your chimney needs professional attention. Leaks can occur due to damaged flashing, cracked bricks, or deteriorated mortar joints. Ignoring these issues can lead to more severe damage, including mold growth and structural weakening. Ageless Masonry offers comprehensive masonry repair services to fix leaks and prevent future water damage.
Foul Odors
If you notice unpleasant odors coming from your chimney, it could indicate moisture buildup or debris blockage. These odors can be a sign of more significant issues, such as mold or mildew growth within the chimney structure. Our team in Bethpage, NY can diagnose the cause of the odor and perform the necessary repairs to ensure your chimney is functioning correctly and safely.
If you recognize any of the above-mentioned signs or need other masonry services, don’t hesitate to contact Ageless Masonry. Our team is dedicated to providing superior-quality masonry repair and maintenance in Bethpage, NY, and all of Nassau County.
