## The honest read

S.Jones Chimney Service & Masonry does chimney work. A 2026 customer said they paid Jones to install a chimney liner and he took the money and never did any work, leaving them out nearly $3000 until their card issuer refunded some of it.

A 2025 customer said they paid Shane Jones $1600 for work on their house and he kept the money without doing the job, then would not return calls or texts. A 2025 customer wrote that Shane took a $700 deposit for chimney work, never did the work, did not return the deposit and stopped answering calls and texts.

A 2024 customer had a better experience: after no one else would come out to inspect loose bricks on a chimney, they said he came the next morning, charged a fair price and got the job done. On Google the business holds 2 stars from 4 ratings, and its BBB grade is A+.

**Strengths:**
- Next-morning visit — a 2024 customer said he came the next morning

**Concerns:**
- Paid, no work — a 2026 customer said a paid-for liner was never installed
- Deposit not returned — a 2025 customer said a $700 deposit was kept
- Unanswered calls — a 2025 customer said calls and texts went unanswered

- **1/5 · Google Reviews · High Energy Vintage · 2026-03-12**: Stay away, do not hire.

I paid Jones to install a chimney liner and he just took the money and never did any work. I was out nearly $3000, but was able to get some refunded, by my card issuer.

All I got was lies, do not hire for anything, under any circumstances.
- **1/5 · Google Reviews · Jesse Dowling · 2025-12-13**: I paid Shane Jones $1600 to do work on my house and he kept the money never did the job.  He stole $1600 from me and will not return calls or texts now I have to take him to court and try to get my money back.  Beware!  DI NOT HIRE THIS GUY. He’s a fraud…..
- **1/5 · Google Reviews · Luke Stadler · 2025-12-11**: DO NOT USE S. JONES MASONRY OR DO BUSINESS WITH SHANE. He took a $700 deposit from me in September to do some chimney work and disappeared.
