Cancellation Notice
We understand that plans can change unexpectedly. To accommodate our clients with the utmost respect and flexibility, we offer an option to cancel scheduled appointments with advance notice.
- Standard Cancellation: If you wish to cancel your appointment, we kindly ask for a minimum of 24-hour notice. This allows us to adjust our schedules and accommodate other homeowners in need of our services.

Should you need to cancel, please contact our office directly at your earliest convenience. Our commitment is to work with you to find a solution that aligns with your needs and respects our service team's efforts.
Partial Refunds
At 1stGatesRepair, our services are tailored to the specific needs of your chimney. In circumstances where a partial refund is applicable, it will be determined based on the nature of the service rendered and the timing of the cancellation.
- Service Cancellation Post-Commencement: If a service is canceled after it has commenced, we will assess the extent of the work completed. A partial refund will be calculated based on the completed portion of the service and any materials used.
- Package Services: For bundled services, if cancellation occurs after the first service, refunds will be prorated based on the remaining unperformed services.
Your satisfaction is paramount. We ensure that each request for a partial refund is handled with fairness and attention to detail.

The safety of our clients and team members is our top priority. Weather conditions can occasionally impact our ability to perform chimney services safely and effectively.
