I just spoke with an elderly woman in my building and she got caught by someone saying they were from Eatons Fireplace Service and were doing business in and the building so she fell for it even though she should have known that we get our fireplaces done every two years by a reliable company and it comes out of our maintenance fund.  Thanks God others in the building that were called told hem no as it ended up costing her over $800.00 by the time he was done because he told her that things needed replacing that most likely didn't.  

There are enough good companies around, never get caught by a phone solicitor.  Make sure that you tell them to take you of their list and tell them that they will be reported to the BBB and the police.

Pretended to be in the condo building on next floor, working their way up.  They wanted to service our fireplace and stove.  Turned out to be a total lie, there were not even in the building.  Watch-out for these GUYS.

I missed the call but phoned back to see who it was.  Nobody answered.  I then looked the number up here and found other people looking for the same person.

PGHS- progas is who has been calling. They have called before and they are a scam offering fireplace cleaning services. 1 google to the BBB will tell you this. In fact, during one of their phone calls that I actually answered, I told them that I was not interested and why (BBB reports) and the girl put me through to the office manger, who proceeded to give me the "what for" and pretty much tell me off, saying I am wrong to believe the BBB and that I should not trust them! I told him that if they are a good company and that if the BBB has it wrong he should follow up with them and straighten it out- NOT with me! He honestly went on for about 5 solid minutes! it was ridiculous! Anyhow, I wouldn't trust them and would avoid answering their phone calls!
