Anthony showed up at the agreed time with a big smile on his face. There was absolutely no high pressure salesmanship from this guy. He checked our dryer and vents and proclaimed them clean and not needing his services right now. What an honest fella! That doesn’t happen very often. We will schedule another visit with Chattanooga Vent Pros in the future and definitely recommend Anthony Hooper and his company.

Would definitely recommend! They let me know when they were on the way, and kept me informed on what was going on during the entire appointment. Tony was very helpful and professional! He did a great job!
