Eric did an amazing job! My stove has never run this well since I bought it. We recently had a chimney inspection, got a steel sleeve installed, and had the damper removed. Thanks to Eric’s work, everything is running more efficiently than ever. Highly recommend!
Eric is great!! He knows his stuff. Not only does he thoroughly inspect your wood stove, he educates and shares information as he goes. Super friendly, super reasonable, we highly recommend him!
We called for a cleaning of our woodstove and he came in mid December. He was to clean the woodstove and install a new pipe. After he left, we realized the lever was malfunctioning on the new pipe he had installed causing it to close the flu randomly and cause puff back. This was during the first extremely cold stretch we had here. He said he would return the following week. We took time off work and he never showed or called to say he wasn’t coming. I sent a text and my husband called. He responded several hours later and he said he was sick with potentially COVID. OK, we understand, stuff happens, but you don’t call your customers, you just ghost them? He rescheduled for New Years Day, which we both thought was odd, but it’s his business. Once again, no show and no call and to this day he has not called. We moved on after he no showed us for the second time. What a terrible business. Use someone else.
Eric quite simply put is top notch. His service was thorough; professional & friendly demeanor. Reasonable pricing. You can’t do better than Bed of Coals!
Excellent... Eric does a very professional job, takes time to explain issues and offers reasonable solutions.
