Description of Work: They were very knowledgable, reasonably priced and prompt. I was very grateful they detected a small gas leak from our gas starter before they cleaned and inspected the fireplace and chimney. We had the gas leak repaired and Emerald Coast Chimney came out a second time and proceeded to inspect and clean our fireplace and chimney. Even with the two trips they only charged us for the cleaning. They were very efficient and clean and I especially appreciated their honesty in bringing to our attention the gas leak.

They called to let me know they were on the way and showed up promptly at the appointment time. He completed an inspection of the fireplace and chimney both inside and outside on the roof. After covering the area around the fireplace with tarps, he cleaned the fireplace and chimney thoroughly. I was concerned about the integrity of the mortar surrounding the firebox. Some had cracked and fallen out. He explained the impact of this and noted it was not a serious issue. However, he cleaned the area and repaired the mortar. After completing the work he thoroughly cleaned up the area. They were very professional, efficient, and knowledgeable, I was impressed with their work and will certainly use them in the future.
Description of Work: Safety inspection and cleaned the fireplace. Also repaired mortar around the firebox.

I found this group to be very knowledgeable . The workers were very efficient and took pictures of the chimney before and after they fixed it so I could see what the damage was and what was done to correct the damage. I also looked inside the chimney to see where it had been repaired. The gentleman in charge had me come outside to see where the outside part of the chimney had been resealed with new mortar. There were quite a few places from top to bottom. It was easy to see because the new mortar was light, but later dried to the same color as the rest of the mortar. I saw the damage on the chimney before they started and after the work was completed. The after pictures were sent to my computer so I could keep a record of the work. All this was done before they left and I was able to set up a file with the pictures and details of their work.
Description of Work: Water had been entering the system causing damage to flue and profile. They resurfaced the head and crown with elastemeric crown seal, tuck point missing and cracked mortar joints, resealed flashing and sprayed the chimney with saver water repellent. (10 year warranty).Also sealed the profile. I bought a 3 year maintenance agreement. $1285 was the cost of the service and the rest of the total was what I paid in advance for the three year maintenance agreement. Thus, the total was $1684.

Contacted for a chimney/fireplace inspection on a house I recently purchased. Gene arrived and did the inspection and found a few issues that needed repair. He gave me a price on the cost of said repair and i agreed to let him perform the work. After calling to schedule the repair Gene did not show up. After repeated rescheduling over the course of a month I finally gave up and had to call another company. Other companies require their own inspection first to find out any needed repairs and then give their own estimate. So now I have paid for an inspection from this company and now have to pay for another so i can get the needed repairs. Would not use this company again and cannot recommend them to others

The safety inspection was completed and there were some cracks in the mortar. He was able to fix that and then cleaned the chimney which had not been done for a while. He was able to fix the pipe on the roof. The job was outstanding and the gentleman did a great job of explaining all the work he was doing. I would highly recommend this man for your chimney needs.

First time using the service of a chimney sweep. We're installing gas logs and it was recommended to have the chimney cleaned prior to gas log installation. Originally schedued appointment for 3/21/14 @ 10:00 am and was a no-show. Called at 2:00 p.m. and he said he had a job that ran over and could accomplish the next day (Saturday). I agreed. He was a little late; he called me this time to let me know he would be a few minutes late. Seemed to know his stuff and cleaned the chimney without making a mess. Originally quoted me a rate of $129 but bill was for $139. Not sure if the extra charge was for cleaning out the fire box and air inlet or just a price increase.
Description of Work: Cleaned the chimney, clean-out box, and air inlet.

Description of Work: I contacted Gene for a consultation on chimney leaks and firebox replacement in a 30 year old house.. He was extremely knowledgeable, very articulate, and explained in understandable language the best solution to my problem. By far, one of the most well informed and professional people I have talked to in the chimney sweep business. When I decide on the extent of the work to be done I will call Emerald Coast Chimney Sweep first. No need for a second or third opinion here

Excellent workmanship. Punctual, very work oriented with little chit-chatting. Professional attitude and outstanding workmanship. Cleaned up so well that my wife came home from work and thought they'd not been able to come do the job.

Very pleased.
Description of Work: Excellent service. Explained what he was doing (repaired a crack in the firebox) and did it at minimal cost. He said that if that did not hold he would return and do more extensive work and take the original charge off the bill. I had queried the community via email and this service was consistently recommended.

I was very happy with my experience with Emerald Coast Chimney sweeps company and have already started telling other people who to use! I would use him again and he was excelllent!!! I made the best choice I could have made! :) If you need your Chimney Sweep done these are the best people I found out!
Description of Work: I called around to find a company to sweep my chimney and found Gene at Emerald Coast Chimney Sweep answered his own phone.Most companies I called went to a answering center and were 50.00 to 75.00 higher and couldn't get to it for a month. I was impressed with Emerald Coast Cimney Sweep after our phone call! He came out the next day took care of the chimney and showed me I had a fan switch for the chimney as well I did not know it had or the location of it? He found it and explained it to me as well. He also gave me pointers on starting a fire and how often you may need to have it maintanced. Gene said if he comes out and it does not need cleaning he will be honest and tell you! I did not know the last time it had been cleaned since I inherited the house.

Due to the onset of winter, I decided to get my chimney cleaned and inspected since I had just bought a home and didn't know how safe the chimney was to use. I checked on Angie's List and made a couple of calls. Emerald Coast Chimney Sweep was not only $50-$75 cheaper, but the others could not schedule me for a couple of weeks. EC Sweep said they could do i the next day. So, not only cheaper, but could get it done sooner. We agreed on a time and arrived without a problem. He was very personable, professional, and helpful. He gave me the "how to start a fire 101" brief, explained how to take care of the fireplace and other helpful beginner tips. Best of all, he gave the name of local folks who would sell me wood at a fair price. I believe in taking care of our local businesses and this one definitely deserves it. I recommend Emerald Coast Chimney Sweep.

On time, reasonable, and answered plenty of questions from someone who had never had a fireplace before.
Description of Work: A chimney cleaning was scheduled but after inspection it was determined the chimney needed major repairs and a cleaning would not be worthwhile. The source of the water leaking into the chimney which ruined the fire box and caused the damage was found and repaired.
