I scheduled the service by e-mail. I called Lance to confirm. He was very nice. Ed showed up on time to sweep my chimney. He did a good job. He put a tarp down on my hardwood floor in case anything got on the floor. Nothing did. He was very neat and did a good job sweeping the chimney. Ed had a lot of knowledge about chimneys and fireplaces. He inspected my chimney and was able to make a recommendation about a repair I will need on down the road. He left me some flyers about gas logs. He discussed the options for gas logs with me. He really knew his stuff. At the time of this writing, there is an Angie's List discount. Make sure you mention this when scheduling the appointment and also to your technician. I would use this provider again.

These guys are exceptionally good at what they do. They came inside, moved everything away from the fireplace, covered all the openings and the floor...they employed interior and exterior ventilation while doing a really messy job.They also gave me some really good tips for protecting and improving my chimney cap.

I would definitely recommend Lance. He was prompt, professional and friendly. He took pictures of the chimney, explaining some work I might want to get done in the future, but said it did not need to be done right away. He took care to clean and remove everything without messing up my carpet. Very pleased.

Response from Atlanta Fireplace Specialists
[Member name removed], First, let me apologize for the lack of action taken by Jonathan. That was a chronic problem I had with him. For the record, he is no longer with me. My name is Lance and I own AFS. If you still need work done and would like me to come take a look at your project, please feel free to give me a call. I will handle your estimate and work personally. I promise to give it the utmost care and responsiveness. If Jon turned you off completely, I totally understand and wish you the best of luck with your project.

When my fireplace was leaking, I didn't know who to call. After reading the A.L. reviews, I called Atlanta Fireplace Specialists. They were very responsive and thorough. They were patient in explaining what needed to be repaired. When it came time to do the work, the entire team worked efficiently. It took longer then they had thought it would, but they worked until they were satisfied with the job. They made sure that I knew how to use gas logs and let me test everything out before they left.
Description of Work: Added a fireplace cap, replaced the appliance flu, repaired the fireplace flu, and added gas logs.

They were excellent! At times, they didn't call me back when we were trying to schedule it. They were supposed to come out one day and then they never showed up. So I called them and something happened and so he came out the next day to make sure it got done. That was a little frustrating. I'm not sure what happened there but otherwise once they came they did a great job!
Description of Work: Atlanta Fireplace Specialists did re-securing of the structure of the fire-place, replacement of the entire piping of the fireplace and then put in gas logs which was originally wood burning.

Response from Atlanta Fireplace Specialists
[removed member name], With a price like $2300, I assume that the estimate was actually for an insert. An insert is a gas or wood burning fireplace that is inserted into your existing fireplace with it's own venting system. They are expensive, but highly efficient. Open faced gas logs usually run $700 - $1500 installed, depending on size, style, and accessories chosen. If you have not purchased anything for your fireplace and would like me to come show you cheaper options than an insert, I would be happy to Thanks, Lance

The manager (Paul) came out and gave me a detailed estimate (the middle of 3 estimates that I had obtained) a few days before. On the scheduled work day (on which it fortunately did not rain), 4 workers showed up and worked throughout the day (I was amazed) until it was completed. Upon inspecting the work from outside after they were done, I I noticed that the flashing in the back was sticking out and had to call Paul back, but he came and repaired it before it got dark. After a few days, it rained and I checked whether it was leaking, and it was, so had to call them back. Paul came himself and fixed it within about 2 hours, which was a day or two after it rained. So far, after several heavy rains, it appears to have stopped leaking. Paul was an Angel. The business owner Lance called to check on the work. The workers acted in a very professional manner for the most part. I was pleased that they honored their price estimate, warranty, and guaranteed their work.
Description of Work: On the roof around my chimney, they removed the old flashing, mortar, and some of the bricks on the top, then put on new mortar, flashing, shingles, a crowne point top, and a lock-top damper. They then put water-proof sealing over it all.
