Sold the house but needed a quick chimney repair before closing. While they did a good job repairing, they missed things according to USAA. Communication could have been better.
Reply from the business
Hi Francine, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear you were satisfied with the chimney repair. Regarding the flashing, while USAA indicated it as the cause of the leak, our inspection and subsequent remediation confirmed it was not the source of the issue. We’re truly sorry for any miscommunication — our goal is always to resolve the problem without recommending unnecessary or costly repairs. We’d welcome the opportunity to review the flashing concern with you directly. Please feel free to reach out to me, Dennis Ashton, at 703-868-1198, so we can discuss the best way to ensure everything is addressed to your satisfaction. Your input helps us improve, and we appreciate the chance to earn back your full confidence. — Dennis Ashton Virginia Chimney and Roofing Services

I hired Virginia Chimney and Roofing "VCR" to replace my old roof. My roof went from a 3-tab contractor grade shingle to a CertainTeed level 3 series Landmark pro. The roof is high quality and looks awesome! I even saved money on my homeowners Insurance! Dennis, the owner, is very honest, straightforward, and professional. If you are looking for a roof replacement, shop around and then call VCR. It will definitly be an eye opener for the quality and price you will get!

I recently had chimney repair work done and couldn't be happier with the experience. Dennis, the owner, was fantastic from the start — responsive, and he clearly explained exactly what needed to be done before any work began. Our technician, Damion, was professional and courteous throughout the job, and the finished work looks great. Highly recommend this company if you need chimney repair .

I highly recommend this company. They came out and performed a thorough chimney inspection and were honest enough to tell us the work needed was beyond what they could do. They pointed us in the right direction and didn't even charge for the inspection. Truly excellent professionalism, integrity, and customer service!

Very happy with the service. The owner, Dennis, was very fast to respond and learn about the problem. They did an inspection of our flue with a camera and showed us the cracks that needed repair. They had a straightforward solution to the problem. They were prompt on the repair, showed us a follow up with the camera to make sure we’re were happy with the work. The price was very fair. Would recommend and use again!
