Chimney · Lead time

Explain the lead time on a chimney repair

Send this when the holdup is the wait before work can start, not whether they liked the price.

Names, prices, and companies on this page are examples.

What sets the date

If they use the fireplace, say whether it can be used while you are on the roof. A winter repair has a real date. A unused flue can wait. A partner often hears 'chimney' and assumes the whole stack is being rebuilt.

Do not skip the wait

Do not sell a reline in the follow-up if you have not inspected the flue. Roof access and the height of the stack set the repair price. A reline is a different project.

If you send it from QuoteLasso

The default schedule is three emails, at 2, 5, and 10 days. Day 10 is the last one. You can move the dates. Add the estimate by typing it in, forwarding the message, or importing a spreadsheet. The customer sees your business name and the address followups@quotelasso.com. A reply comes to your inbox and the remaining follow-ups stop. QuoteLasso does not send texts. During the 14-day trial, due emails can send on their own. After that, Free is manual. Starter is $79/month and Pro is $149/month.

When the chimney repair can start

Hi George,

The chimney repair estimate is $4,600. The start date depends on this: If they use the fireplace, say whether it can be used while you are on the roof. A winter repair has a real date. A unused flue can wait.

If you want it, tell me and I will line up the next step. I will not start before that is set.

Thanks,
Holly Singh
