Reviews of local pros in Olathe, Kansas

We needed a complete tear down of our 130 year old chimney. CR of KC was one of 3 companies that quoted us. Chris was quick to respond, came out within a few days to quote us and walked us through everything. He didn’t try to up sell or recommend anything that wasn’t needed. We scheduled and he and his crew were on time and completed the job in one day. He sent me progress photos of the job throughout the day and the cleanup was phenomenal. I highly recommend Chimney Restoration of KC. I’m a real estate agent and they are now on my preferred vendor list.

Chimney Restoration of Kansas City is one of the best companies to do business with. They installed a gas insert in the fireplace and the insert is such an improvement. The staff are outstanding and all detail minded.

From the beginning visit to see if an Electric Fireplace could be installed in my old fireplace, to the very last day finishing up, the crews that worked with me were excellent. Very knowledgeable, thorough, prep and finish were all excellent. They laid out a tarp and plugged in a shop vac and immediately cleaned up anything. They went above and beyond what I expected. We are extremely happy with our new fireplace. It was just in time for Christmas and the family all loved it too. I would highly recommend using Chimney Restoration of Kansas City. The office and crews were awesome to work with.

Edit: Some of the installation was not done right, which could have led to issues this winter. Fortunately, it was caught when the gas company came for a different reason. CRoKC did immediately come and fix the problem areas, but they really shouldn't have been there in the first place (and we wouldn't have known if we hadn't had a separate issue bring it to our attention!)
(original review): After receiving what I considered a ridiculous quote from a competitor, I got a "second opinion" from Chimney Restoration. Kortney in the office was fantastic with communication throughout the whole process. Ben came out and was very thorough in addressing the same issues as the previous company, and came back with a much more reasonable price, plus an option that wouldn't break the bank but would get us through a couple years until we could complete everything on the list. When it was time to do the work, Kyle and Jared were awesome. They communicated wonderfully throughout the process, and were respectful of our home and space. The work was completed on time on the days promised. All communication was transparent from the estimate through the end of work, and I felt like the pricing was honest. Great company and great personnel to work with from start to finish!

Chimney Restoration did a great job rebuilding my chimney crown. Work was done in a day and forms removed the next day. The crew was a great group of guys. I would highly recommend.

Great people to work with. The guy I worked with, Zach, gave me great advice and helped me figure things out with my fireplace issues. I would highly recommend them.

We had Chimney Restoration of KC out to clean and inspect our fireplace for the upcoming season. Carsen was knowledgeable, friendly and efficient. I highly recommend them for all of your fireplace needs!

We had a wood burning fireplace that chimney restoration replaced with a gas log fireplace insert. They came out promptly and inspected to make sure it was safe to install. A complete written estimate was given on the spot and the price did not vary from that.. we had to have the old wood burning insert removed before the new one was installed..they put down clean tarps and rugs and built a tent around the area to protect the house from dirt and damage. It took 2 days with removal of old and installing the new. Joseph Wealot was the person who headed up the entire project, calling with times of arrival and all notifications… an additional piece came in a bit later but Chris ( the owner) was in touch with text and calls throughout the process. All personnel were respectful, knowledgeable , and wore clean uniforms. Very hard working group as we had a crew of 6 the first day with inside and outside work to be done. I would absolutely use this company again and will for future inspections of the fireplace…highly recommend!

MY HEROES! These guys helped me rescue my cat from our chimney today! I woke up to my poor girl meowing from our fireplace and we could not for the life of us find where she was at. We called the fire department, animal control, wildlife rescue and finally- Chimney Restoration of Kansas City. When I called Chris told me he had helped out with a rescue around four years ago so I was instantly relieved. I knew he was going to do everything he could to help me make sure my beloved pet was safe and sound.

HUGE shoutout to Chris and Carson, they were so sweet and reassuring. They immediately headed my way once they got my call. We had to make sure she wouldn't be spooked (she's very anxious and could have fallen down the flue) so we all decided I should be the one grab her. Thankfully she saw me and made her way toward safety, the rest was sweet relief! They knew exactly how to handle this crazy situation, and helped coached me through all of it.

Not only were these men absolute professionals- but kind caring individuals and problem solvers. Whatever it is you need help for, I can't recommend them enough. Thank you Chris and Carson- I don't know what I would have done without you both!!!

We had a full replacement of our fireplace and chimney cap. While we had some delays in getting the fireplace itself due to the manufacturer, the install and final completion were done with very little disruption and they left everything looking great when done. We have been enjoying a beautiful new fireplace since.

Joseph inspected our chimney and explained every aspect of what was needed to turn my wood burning fireplace to electric. He was very professional and knowledgeable. The crew that came out was very polite and and kept me informed of all aspects of the remodel. I am very pleased with the entire process. The pictures do not do it justice. I would highly recommend this company.

These guys did an AMAZING job! I had called several chimney companies before finding Chimney Restoration of Kansas City - oddly enough from a phone number on the back of a t-shirt! When they came out to estimate the cost for our chimney repair, they listened to what our needs were, gave us different options, took loads of photos so we could see everything on the roof and got us on the schedule! Their communication was stellar. I knew each day what time the crew would be there and when they were winding down. Answering my questions and making sure that they followed up on each one. Good guys all around. Afterward, they gave me photos of the process and end result. I'd hire Chimney Restoration of Kansas City again! (But probably won't have to because of the thorough job they did!) A BIG thanks to Joseph and Caden and his crew!

Carsen from CRofKC sent a text telling me he’s on the way and was pleasant, professional and listened to our issues. Then did a complete inspection and cleaning. He communicated during the entire visit and explained the services and fees before he did any work. We will plan to use Carsen and Chimney Restoration next time we have issues.

This company knows what they are doing! Professional staff, respectful and protects your house from mess while working. Great communication and had our new gas fireplace installed quickly. Definitely recommend!!

Carson did initial scope of storm damage to chimney and wrapped it for safety until the repair work was done. The team of Kyle, Jay and Kevin did meticulous work to successfully rebuild like knew! Amazing pros and they provided regular communications as work progressed. Very satisfied and highly recommend!! Thanks team!!

I was impressed at every step of the way by how this company handled pulling out our old (inefficient) fireplace unit and replacing it with a brand new, MUCH more efficient one. It was a big project! Every member of the crew seemed knowledgeable, trustworthy, and very competent. The work they did on the exterior of our home looks so nice and we absolutely love our new fireplace. Thank you guys so much!

Absolutely refreshing to have experienced this family-owned local business, Chimney Restoration. They believe in providing the best customer care, and it is evident throughout. Carsen inspected our old, dilapidated chimneys, provided detailed photos of the inspection, made recommendations, and gave various options to choose from. He coordinated the work to ensure the highest quality work, answered all our questions, and communicated with us throughout the job progress. Courtney responded to texts and emails, continually informing us of work schedules. Kyle and Ben, with the tech team, did a professional, quality job in rebuilding the chimneys, cap, and flashing and installed our new fireplaces. So respectful, so good with people. Oh, did I mention everyone we had any contact with were all focused on providing excellent customer service? If you need chimney repair, don't go anywhere else!

We are very happy with the work completed by Chimney Restoration of KC. Everything went smoothly and they made adjustments so that the timeline for install was met. We've been using our fireplace gas insert daily and only wish we'd done it sooner!

Chimney Restoration of KC did an excellent job replacing my chase cover. Initial inspection/measurement by Zach and install by a separate field crew. The entire team was courteous, knowledgeable, respectful of the property AND did quality work. TYTYTY!

The inspection we got from Joseph Wealot was extremely professional and through. He explained all kinds of things from grout erosion chemistry and airflow engineering, to our chimney's construction type and its pros and cons. He was extremely knowledgeable but also very approachable, and explained everything in a very understandable fashion. He detailed many options we had for our fixes and improvements (two chimney linings, one chimney repair, one chimney remodel, and a fireplace insert install), but also did not waver when it came to some parts of our 1920s house that were out of code. I really appreciated this as some other reputable companies from the KC area said they would let these things slide when I got their inspections... but not Chimney Restoration. We really appreciate this kind of integrity!

Chimney restoration is dedicated to educating their employees and their customers. I'm really grateful they did my repairs. Fixed a water leak, did a Removal and replacement for my home. 2 old fireplaces removed and 1 electric and 1 Forever fireplace installed. They took great care the entire time and I'm beyond happy with their work!
