Very personable guy, seems very honest. Could have done several other services which we inquired about, but he told us we’re just not necessary and would waste our money. I really appreciate that from a contractor! Its a first in Greenwich! Prices were reasonable and service was quick and tidy. He was very responsive and prompt from our first contact onward. I will definitely use him again and I would definitely recommend him to others.

Description of Work: They put a chimney extender on our chimney and now I can light a fire in both of our fireplaces with no smoke coming in the house. They showed up when they said they would, the didn't change from estimate and they checked back with me to see if everything was ok. A+!

Steve was on time, friendly and careful to keep his work area clean. He explained everything he was going to do beforehand and was very professional and quick. He also made sure to explain how to safely use a fireplace as I had never used one before. Steve was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions thoroughly.

I asked to clean two flues but he did only one for my boiler. He explained two reasons he could not do the fire place flue. I have not used the fire place more than ten years also have no intention to use it in the future, so I did not ask further. But I wanted chimney caps on the top and asked him to do that. He accepted my order and purchased them, brought them a few days later on June 4th, and tried to install them but he said his ladder is too short and cannot do the work. I just purchased the caps from him and that's the end of him. Presently I am looking for another chimney man to install.
Description of Work: Steve Oldham, Chimney Swifts cleaned my flue and he did a very good work; neat and quick. I am satisfied.

Very straightforward - returned call, gave estimate, made an appointment (he was booked for a couple weeks so had to wait), came a little early, cleaned the chimney, answered many questions I had about the stove, the pipe, wood fires, was very clean with the work and was out in under an hour. He is now filed in the home notebook and we will call every year. I think he wound up with a conflict with the date we had set, but called well in advance and we changed. Very professional services.
Description of Work: Cleaned 3 stories of inside-the-house stove pipe chimney from a wood stove.

Description of Work: Steve was ontime and very nice. He came to sweep my one chimney, but upon inspection he found he was unable to do the task to the standard he felt comfortable with (we have a VERY small fireplace and weirdly designed damper therefore need special brushes) He was very professional and explained the situation to me. He was able to recommend a local business who he felt might be able to perform the job. If he had the ability to clean my chimney I absolutely would hire him again. Maybe in our next home :)

It went extremely well. I would highly recommend this company. He is very honest, reliable and neat and not a rip-off like I have seen in the past with these companies. Prior to Chimney Swifts we did get an estimate from another chimney cleaner company who told us that we needed all kinds of repairs and that the price would be approx. $2900. Being a smart consumer, I always get more than one estimate. Good thing I did because Chimney Swifts came in and found no major problems. If you want someone, reliable and honest, use this company. You won't regret it...
Description of Work: This was for a chimney sweep. The owner of this company came in and cleaned our chimney and also looked for any repairs needed.

We got a prompt call back. Steve showed up punctually, cleaned the chimney very neatly - no dust or dirt in the living room in spite of getting a lot of stuff out of the chimney. He cleaned up after himself totally. Great job! Polite, professional, friendly, would definitely recommend these guys.
Description of Work: We needed our chimney swept after just one year because we made a lot of fires last winter and some of the wood was kind of green which causes more build-up in the chimney. We have used the Chimney Swifts for a number of years. If the chimney doesn't need cleaning, they have said so and we wait another year. This year it did need cleaning.

We have used this company several times over the years. They have been consistently courteous, prompt and professional. Our chimney only needs cleaning every other year since we don't make that many fires. They always give us a general evaluation and never try to sell us any service or repair we don't need, unlike a company we used once before we found these guys! We recommend Chimney Swifts wholeheartedly.

My chimney was cleaned and the living room remained spotless. I appreciated being told to cut the vine growing up my chimney (which I did). All interactions were very pleasant and professional.
