“Called at 8 AM about a downdraft problem. Tony was at my door by noon. He found a cracked liner that two other companies missed. Fair price, great communication, and they actually answered when I had follow-up questions.”

“The old terracotta liner was crumbling — pieces were falling into the firebox when we opened the damper. Franklin removed what was left and installed a full stainless steel liner with insulation wrap. Like having a brand new chimney. The draft is incredible now.”

“Had a wood stove insert put in and needed a properly sized liner to go with it. Franklin ran the stainless liner, insulated it, and connected it to the stove. The efficiency improvement was noticeable on the first cold night. Our heating bill actually went down.”

“Woke up to our CO detector going off at 3 AM. Fire department came, said the chimney was the likely source. Franklin was there first thing Monday morning — the old liner had a gap that was leaking exhaust into the wall cavity. New stainless liner installed by end of day. Scary situation but they handled it fast.”

“Our 1950s clay liner had cracks and a separated joint. They installed a stainless steel liner with insulation wrap in about six hours. It's like having a brand new chimney — the draft is incredible now. Walked me through the warranty before leaving.”

“Our clay liner was original to the house — 1952. The inspection showed multiple cracks and a gap at one of the joints. They installed a stainless steel liner in about six hours. The draft improvement was immediate. We actually had to dial back the damper because the fireplace was pulling so much harder.”

“Converted to gas logs and the installer told me the old clay liner wasn't safe for it. Franklin ran the correct aluminum liner with a connector kit and it passed inspection first try. Should've had it done right from the start. Great work.”
