Very impressed with the knowledge of the serviceman that came and explained everything he saw as he took the fireplace apart and also took pictures as he worked. Also very neat and clean ...layed out protection down so my carpet wouldn't get dirty. After the work was done he explained all of the work he did on my report. Also emailed me the report.I would recommend this company 100%

We just purchased our home and wanted to make sure the fireplaces worked before using them. Josh the tech was on time, very friendly and very professional. He cleaned the chimney and fixed the gas lighter on our wood burning fireplace and set up our gas fireplace. He instructed us on how to use the gas fireplace in the most efficient way. Great service all the way around!

James came out and looked at the fireplace in our new house. He was prompt, super knowledgeable and incredibly friendly. He was organized and left zero mess when he was done. I was very impressed as customer service post covid is iffy - but this whole experience was top notch

River City arrived 15 minutes early and provided excellent and professional work! The Service man was very detailed, and I had a crystal clear picture, with estimates as to what I need to repair going forward.

I had a great experience. They explained everything they were doing and also taught me proper ways to build a fire in my fireplace and how to keep it in good condition for years.

James came out and cleaned and inspected our chimney. As first time homeowners with a fireplace, he took the time to go through the ropes with us. Definitely recommend River City Chimney and Hearth! Look forward to doing business with them in the future!

Hired this company to clean my fireplace on a recently-bought house 6 years ago. They claimed my fireplace was defective and that it needed to be entirely replaced. They could not recommend a proper fireplace replacement, so we settled for an ugly stove insert.Now, having hired them to clean the stove insert they recommend and they installed, this company has the nerve to tell me that the stove was improperly installed and must be replaced. I’m now doubting whether my old, beautiful fireplace actually needed to be replaced to begin with. Whether this is a tactic to sell upgrades or simply incompetence, I cannot recommend them for either cleaning or installing.

Very courteous and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain and answer questions. Would recommend and will continue to use. Josh was our technician and the service was above and beyond. In a time when a lot of businesses do “just enough”; it was nice to be truly impressed with the service.

Gentleman that came out was very polite, customer focused and friendly. He did an excellent job and was very patient when my German Shepherd offered to help. Pricey and took a long time to book an appointment but well worth the waitService: Stove & fireplace cleaning

So grateful to River City Chimney for coming to clean our chimney! We were in the middle of a fireplace remodel and learned last minute that we had to get our chimney cleaned (small miscommunication from the folks remodeling our fireplace) - River City came to the rescue despite the short notice! They were responsive, got back to us quickly, and gave us a few options on timing so we could pick something that worked with our schedule. They did excellent work and after they were done our home was spotless, you would never have known they were even there except that a decade's worth of creosote was gone. Thank you so much for saving our fireplace remodel so it could proceed on schedule in time for the winterService: Chimney cleaning

James and Ronnie were very knowledgeable, professional, friendly and helpful. James educated me as to the proper use and care of my wood burning and gas fireplaces. They did a wonderful job diagnosing and fixing or educating me on the issues I was having. Ronnie did an excellent job cleaning and painting my fireplaces where needed. It was a pleasure to have them service my fireplaces.Services: Stove & fireplace cleaning, Chimney inspections, Smoke chamber cleaning, Chimney cleaning

These guys are hard workers. In 110 degree weather getting in an attic to make sure this homeowners pipe is replaced properly. Has to be 20 degrees hotter in the attic. Thanks getting the job done right!

I recently hired River City Chimney & Hearth to inspect and service the fireplace in my home. They were friendly and professional from the first call until the service was completed. They were extremely efficient and I could hardly tell they had been there when I got home, they did such a great job of cleaning up after themselves. I also had them work on my Green Mountain Grill that I was having trouble with. Dustin did a great job diagnosing and fixing the problem and was extremely helpful. If you are needing to service you fireplace or looking to purchase a fireplace or grill, definitely give River City a call. You won't be disappointed with their first class customer service and work.

These guys are great! We had them come and service our wood burning fireplace after buying our new house just to make sure everything was safe for our family. The tech did an excellent job and even cleaned our fireplace doors before he left. They were even able to find some parts to update our older unit. I would definitely recommend these guys to anybody looking for a fireplace company.

This is the 2nd time we've hired River City, and, like last time, I am very pleased with the service we received. They were on time, professional, and friendly. I appreciated how they took care to protect our flooring and hearth while working on our fireplace. I also appreciated how they gave some tips on how to operate it. Finally, they provided a comprehensive inspection and service report for my records. Excellent company.

River city came to sweep and camera my chimney. They were on time and I received a text reminder and call before they came to my house. They worked quickly and were very clean. They used a large shop vac while performing the sweep to keep the shoot out of our house. They explained everything I needed to know very simply and provided an electronic report with pictures and details of their findings. Very knowledgeable guys and also very professional. Would recommend their service!

Avoid! Had them clean and inspect my gas fireplace. Found that the pilot assembly needed to be replaced and had to order the part. So the tech said he would paint the box after he replaced the pilot. They wanted to charge me $425 to replace an $80 part. So I had someone else do it at a much lower cost. Then they wouldn't come out to paint my fireplace box because they didn't install the part even though I paid them for the service. Very poor way to run a business...get your money then they run. Don't use these guys!Service: Chimney cleaning
