Top Hat Chimney in Nevada

Top Hat Chimney in Nevada

Top Hat Chimney has been cleaning, inspecting, and repairing chimneys across Nevada since 1999, back when a lot of the “chimney companies” you could call were actually call centers routing trucks from three states away. Wendell started this business the old way: one truck, his own name on the door, and a promise that the price he gave you on the phone would be the price on the invoice. Today, Top Hat Chimney carries the Locally name because Wendell still runs it that way. When you call, you get a live person - and it might be Wendell himself. When he sets an arrival window, he keeps it, or he calls. And every job leaves with his 90-Day Done Right Promise stamped in writing: one call brings him back.

Why Nevada Homeowners Choose Top Hat Chimney

We’ve all heard the story. You call a number that looks local, get a friendly quote, and a truck shows up with out-of-state plates and a clipboard full of upsells. The price triples. The crew is gone in an hour, and the number you called goes to voicemail forever. Wendell built Top Hat Chimney because he was tired of watching neighbors get taken by that same playbook.

Here’s what you get instead. Wendell answers the phone himself, or a live person does - no voicemail box, no call center in another time zone. He gives you a real arrival window, and if traffic on I-80 or a job in the foothills runs long, he calls. His technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and they don’t start work until you’ve seen the scope in writing and agreed to the price. That price matches what you heard on the phone. No trip charge inside the county. And if you’re a senior or veteran, you get 10% off, always.

Wendell works with brands he trusts: DuraFlex, HeatShield, Gelco, Olympia Chimney, Famco, and Copperfield. Not because they’re fancy names, but because he’s seen what holds up in Nevada’s climate - hot, dry summers that bake masonry, cold snaps that stress flue liners, and the creosote buildup that comes from wood stoves working overtime through mountain winters. He knows what fails in this state because he’s been here fixing it since 1999.

The 90-Day Done Right Promise isn’t a slogan on a magnet. It’s stamped on every job. If something isn’t right, Wendell comes back. He’s local. He lives twenty minutes from most of his customers. Ask anyone on your street - he’s probably swept their chimney too.

Top Hat also runs standing offers that matter: $40 off any repair over $200, and a free second opinion on any written estimate you’re not sure about. Wendell would rather earn your trust for twenty years than squeeze one big ticket today.

Backed by the Locally Family

Locally started in 1997 when a retired county extension agent named Ward Selby got tired of hearing the same story: a truck with out-of-state plates, a quote that tripled at the door, a number that stopped working. He wrote down what a homeowner could verify in five minutes - a local phone number a person answers, an address you can drive to, the owner’s name and face, and a license number you can look up. Any company willing to publish all four could carry his name. That list is still the entire standard.

Top Hat Chimney meets that standard. Wendell publishes his name, his address, and his license. The person who answers is the person who shows up. The price on the phone is the price on the invoice. That’s the L.O.C.A.L. code: Local roots, On time, Community first, Accountable, Loyal. And it’s why the Locally family stands behind every sweep, inspection, and repair Top Hat Chimney performs across Nevada.
