Initially there was some confusion with scheduling the cleaning. I am still not clear about the circumstances. However, after that was cleared up, I was able to schedule an appointment. They arrived on time, cleaned the chimney, cleaned up, and left in a timely manner. I was pleased with the work.
Description of Work: I hired them to clean my chimney. I wanted to make sure that I could use the fireplace safely during the winter months.

They did a good job. They came out to do the work when it was raining and they could not inspect the chimney and its cap. I have no reason to believe it is broken. However, it is a part of their job to inspect the outside. I will use them again in spite of that issue because otherwise, they did a great job.

Guy arrived on time. Took less than 30 minutes. Charged $225. Left soot all over carpet and had to have carpet scrubbed after he left. Didn't feel like he really knew what he was doing. Paid an extra $50 for a new log holder.

A Advanced Chimney Service employees were fantastic! Not only did they clean the inside of my new home fireplace but they also checked the inside shoot of the fireplace leading up to the roof as well as the chimney exterior on the roof. Not to mention they digital photos for me to see issues that they quoted me for repair as well as things that looked good for the condition of the chimney/home. They were fast, professional, gave me a great estimate on future repairs that need to be completed and let me know what I can do to keep my fireplace at its best at all times. I recommend this company completely!

It was a little pricey for the repair, although in all honesty it may have been very reasonable because we didn't shop around. Overall though, we were very happy with his work.
Description of Work: We had smoke backing up out of the fireplace of our new home. He pointed out that the vent must have been accidentally closed. During the inspection of our fireplaces he found several cracks in the backing of the fireplace, which he said was a fire hazard, so he replaced.

I thought the price was a little high for the material that was used, but the professionalism, responsiveness, and quality of workmanship was top notch....I was fortunate enough to get a good amount of rain a couple of days later, and was so excited to see no water coming in... I would definitely use again, and highly recommend.

We had a water leak in our chimney. The price was good. They were professional. They were on time. They came in and evaluated the situation and said they could patch it for a couple years or to fix it for the longest time possible so we chose to go with the latter of the two options.

Everything went well except he left the flue open which I didn't know. I didn't use the fireplace for a couple of weeks so the flue was open with all my room heat going up the chimney, When I went to use the fireplace, i closed the flue when I thought I was opening it since it was already open and my whole room filled with smoke and my alarms went off, quite a mess.

Response from A Advanced Chimney Services
[member name removed], We sincerely apologize for any difficulty that you've experienced, especially as it's connected in any way to service you have received from A Advanced Chimney Service. That said, the damper is operated with a lever and serves as the door to the flue, which is your chimney vent, itself. The operation is typically a lever which slides left to right (or vice-verse) across the face of your fireplace, or a handle inside the firebox. While it's not standard operating procedure to leave this open at the end of a service call, neither is it a standing order to close it. The closing and opening of the damper handle is left to your own preference as it is so simple to operate. To further clarify that point, the damper advertisements in the chimney supply catalogs typically show the dampers being opened/closed by children to show the ease of operation. There are a handful of reasons that the damper may be left open intentionally at the end of a service call, especially one in which some addition or repair service to your firebox may require either curing or drying of components as is the case with some types of fireclay or fireplace mortar. Occasionally it's left open for a specific period to vent away fumes as is the case with touch-up paint. I don't mean to indicate that any of these were done in your particular case, only that this is the first instance that we've become aware that it's lead to a problem that a customer of ours has experienced. Moving forward, this feedback will be shared with our technicians, that they may become even better at what they do; even if only by being aware of what may eventually become the additional concerns of some of our customers. We sincerely appreciate you taking the time to provide this review, we intend to take full advantage of the opportunity to improve because of it. We value your business, and appreciate your thoughtfulness on the feedback. Once again, please allow me to express my sincere apology that your experience with us wasn't perfectly stellar. We accept and move forward with hopes that you may come to once again allow us the opportunity to provide service to you that you are truly satisfied with. We look forward to hearing back from you when & if that time should come. Thanks again for your business.

The gentleman, Waylon, called when he was 30 minutes out. Upon arrival, he introduced himself and setup. The cleaning went without incident. He gave me some advice about the hearth and and the grate. The whole process took less than 30 minutes. Overall, I was pleased with the process.

Response from A Advanced Chimney Services
Please allow me to apologize for the extreme delay in getting back to you. Evidently, the email message through Angie's List wasn't reaching us because we'd long since updated our work email address and that change didn't reach our Angie's List profile. It is now properly merged. Although there has been some time lapse between your email and my response, it didn't feel right to disregard it once I became aware of it; which is why I'm responding now. Moving forward, we are now once again back in step with our profile & are now capable of receiving our Angie's List emails in a timely fashion. Yes, we absolutely provide this service. We need to know which days are available to you now, what type of chimney you have, etc. This is likely easiest to facilitate over the phone, if you'd like to give us a quick call to set it up it'd be much appreciated, our number is (770)601-8918 . If the work you requested has been completed, then I'm glad you got it handled! If not (or if you need anything additional), please do not hesitate to contact us at your convenience at (770)601-8918 & we'd be delighted to provide any service you need. Thank you so much for your interest in A Advanced Chimney Service! We look forward to hearing back from you~

We originally contacted AA Advanced Chimney to put a cap on our chimney. The phone estimate was $250. When the technicians arrived, they told me the chimney was in worse shape than originally thought and the chimney cap would cost significantly more. They offered a less expensive alternative if we didn't plan to use the chimney in the future- just seal it off. I agreed. The 'less expensive' alternative lasted 1-2 months. It turns out it was a piece of sheet metal glued down to the top of the flue. It blew off on the first 'windy day'. I contacted the contractor and she offered to send someone back out to fix it, but took the opportunity to remind me that I took the 'cheap' alternative.

At the time, the cost of the the work seemed reasonable to us. They seemed knowledgeable and arrived when expected. I was reassured by the owner's listing as a Certified Chimney Sweep. They did not, however, clean up the yard after scraping off the old mortar cap. They just left all that debris in the grass. Whatever. Our low rating comes from the fact that the work did not last as long as it should have. Some of the fireplace mortar crumbled after ~3 years. And maybe after ~4 years, the mounting for the chimney damper came loose. The mortar cap isn't holding together real well, either. AND, when I looked to see if Denise Reeves (the owner) was in fact listed with the Chimney Sweep organization whose icon she includes on her invoice, well, I never could find a listing for her. That makes me suspicious that she isn't everything we had hoped.

The first time they came out, they were not able to inspect the chimney. It was taller than the ladder they brought. I had to reschedule. However due to vacations and other commitments it was several weeks before able to reschedule this service. They came out the same day to clean and inspect. I was told there was no flashing on the lower part of my chimney. They gave me an estimate of $500.00. If it leaks I'll have to have repaired. I will call them next year for cleaning.

The service man was very prompt, appeared quite competent and congenial. He thoroughly explained ever step and answered any additional questions. He provided different options for the drain pan replacement for me to decide which option I wanted to go with based on durability, price, etc. As near as I can tell , from ground level, the job was well done and looks very professional. As far as the price of the rain pan, I do not know if it was a reasonable price or not, but I do know that stainless steel is expensive. The service man cleaned up after himself, and the job was actually completed ahead of the projected schedule. I would definitely recommend this service provider and will use them again in the future. I am very pleased with the results.
Description of Work: Although neither of the fireplaces had been used for a few years and really didn't need cleaning, I had asked for a general safety/cleaning inspection as needed. In addition, I asked that a piece of siding which had fallen down from the top of the prefab chimney stack be reattached in the correct position. I had also experienced rust dripping down the side of white chimney, and experienced a squirrel getting in the stack during the winter months. The service man checked the fireplaces, etc, reattached the siding piece, replaced the rusted rain pan with a stainless steel pan (my choice to upgrade from the standard metal to prevent future rusting). He also added screening between the cap heads and the rain pan to block future squirrels. He also painted the caps silver to match the rain pan.
