RBC Bran Home Improvements is a Branford company that holds 2.2 stars from 12 Google ratings. A recent customer said Alan inspected the chimneys on the roof, showed up on time and gave a detailed description of the inspection, with a report to follow. A 2026 customer who called about a gas fireplace said they were quoted $40 for an assessment and then charged $200 after roughly five minutes of work. That customer wrote that the technician left without reattaching the glass or putting the wood back, and that the house smelled strongly of gas when they turned the fireplace on afterward. The same customer said repeated calls to the company went unreturned.
Alan did a great job on the inspection of the chimneys on the roof. The office was very responsive in coordinating with the appointment. Showed up on time and Alan provided a detailed description of the inspection with a report to follow. I highly recommend them! Thanks!
It takes a lot for me to sit down and write a review, but I feel obligated to warn others about how poor my experience was with RBC Brand Home Improvements. I contacted them regarding an issue with my gas fireplace. I was quoted $40 for someone to come out and assess the problem, with the understanding that if we decided to move forward, they would then provide a repair price. Instead, after roughly five minutes of work, I was suddenly charged $200. This was never clearly explained or agreed upon beforehand. What made the situation worse was the unprofessional service. The technician left without reattaching the glass or putting the wood back into the fireplace, and did not test it before leaving to see if there were any other problems. When we turned it on afterward, the house smelled strongly of gas. I have called the company multiple times seeking help with this new issues that was not there before the repair and cannot get anyone to call back. Between the misleading pricing, half assed repair, and lack of accountability afterward, this was a terrible experience. Please do yourself a favor and do not use this company.
