I appreciate the service. Earlier this week, I contacted HBR to inquire about services for my chimney online. Kim with HBR promptly replied by calling, asking about my needs, and describing services. Next, she was able to conveniently schedule for this same week. Upon scheduling, HBR sent a message with the technitian's name, date, and time of the work. On the appointed day, HBR sent a message reiterating the technician info as well as the arrival time. Shortly thereafter the technitian, Blake arrived in a fully equipped service vehicle, with protective gear, & equipment. He was patient and understanding where my two dogs were not, and set to preparing while I moved the dogs outside. After a short assessment, Blake reviewed the work to be done. Next he brought in dust covers and a vacuum to control and manage dust and debris. Blake quickly identified a problem with the existing wild life barrier, removed this along with debris, and set to cleaning. The chimney was cleaned inspected and a report of work provided. Next, Blake climbed on the roof assessed the chimney top, and measured for a new cap. Additionally, Blake reviewed options, provided suggestions, and described the install process as well as the time line. Payment options were presented, and payment quickly facilitated. I look forward to getting the new cap installed so that we are ready to use the fire place when needed. Interestingly, they also do Honey Bee rescue, hence the name, HBR. Thanks to Kim, Blake, and HBR for efficient, affordable, and quality service....
Read moreExcellent! HBR did a fantastic job, from scheduling (thank you Kim!), to inspection (thank you Taylor!) and finally to the actual hive removal / relocation (thank you Victor! I didn't catch your helper's name but I would like to thank him too!).
They were very professional and described in detail the safe removal of the honeybees and their hive. They did meticulous work in cutting through the drywall and I was given the opportunity to see the hive in the wall with all these fully active bees, which was fascinating (and a little creepy I might add! - but I was glad to know that all these hard-working insects will be relocated to one of HBR's multiple bee farms to keep happily doing what they do). After they were done, they expertly repaired the wall. Once I apply a little touch up paint it'll look exactly the same as before!
So, if you have a situation like mine (beehive in the wall of your home), I HIGHLY recommend HBR. They are pros and will remove the hive, rescue the bees, and make the repairs for you. What more could...
Read moreThese guys are great! I called close to 9:00 pm trying to find someone who would go pick up some bees I had found on a sidewalk. Tommy answered the phone and took the time to hear about it and make a plan to pick them up. I sent him a couple of pictures, and he estimated it was 4,000-6,000 bees. It wasn’t my sidewalk, so I was asking for an act of generosity to come pick the bees up for the sake of the bees and anyone who might pass by the area. They got there early the next morning and picked them up! Sent me a few pictures and videos along the way, and I was thrilled to feel I was taking a part in a bee rescue (definitely a highlight of my time while we shelter in place due to covid). I called a few different places, and most hadn’t been interested since it wasn’t on my property. I was very thankful to find a company who seemed to care about the bees and was willing to pick them up for...
