Our services go far beyond "chimney cleaning!" A CSIA Certified Sweep (www.csia.org) - formally trained to diagnose and repair chimney problems of any type and to restore historic chimneys and fireplaces - performs inspections and documents the condition of chimneys. And because of the Certification, his or her documentation is acceptable for legal transactions, such as for an insurance claim or for real estate closings. Your family's safety is at stake, and chimney cleaning is an unregulated industry in Georgia, so CSIA certification is of utmost importance! Don't be fooled by other "certification." On contract with both residential and commercial accounts, Chimney Chasers is retained by several property managers and condominium associations to regularly clean chimneys, gutters and dryer vents, as well as to replace chimney caps and pans and to repair leaks. Servicing the southside of Atlanta (and parts of the city), the company is open Monday through Friday (and on Saturdays by special arrangement only) between the hours of 9 a.m. and 7 p.m. Please call for an appointment.

Chimney Chasers performed a level II fireplace and chimney inspection for a real estate sale and also swept the chimney for the quoted price. No surprises or upcharges. The gentleman was a pleasure to work with and everything was left clean and tidy! I would definitely recommend Chimney Chasers!

Barry arrived with a helper and did an outstanding job. They were clean and neat and quite professional. They checked my dryer vent as well and removed a small blockage. They did not charge for the dryer vent as it did not need a complete cleaning. Honest, Christian and outstanding!

Barry, the owner of the company came out to do a chimney and fireplace inspection. I just purchased a house and wanted to make sure everything was in good condition. He was punctional, professional and on time. Inspected everything. He was very honest and advised me that nothing needed to be repaired. He cleaned up after himself, lit the fire to make sure everything was fine. Went up on the roof to check from there. He was very knowledgable and made sure I understood how everything works.

First, for gutter cleaning, does not use a schedule or quote a price. Puts you on a list and calls on his way. He called and and left a voice mail saying on his way. A little while later a woman called and said it was too cold! She said that he just couldn't call me and tell me so she said she would. THEN she said that they were booked solid and offered to find someone else for me! I told her that I did not want her to do anything for me!

Response from Chimney Chasers
(Member name removed) dissatisfaction is the last thing that we want, but we must correct the factual errors. She had waited some time for her appointment (having a schedule is the only way we could stay in business), as do all this time of year. We are scheduled a month out, hence her displeasure when temps in the 20s (with rain the day before) precluded cleaning frozen leaves from her gutters. 1. Not only do we quote prices, but we are honest enough to say that under some circumstances, it could be more (but that our technician will give a final price prior to completing the job so that the customer has a choice!). At first call, we quote a $125 base charge and advise that it could be more if home is very large or is extremely high/ has a high pitched roof. 2. That day, our Certified Sweep cleaned a chimney on first appt. and called second appt. (Member name removed) to say he was on the way prior to seeing that it was a gutter job; he called the office to say that debris would be frozen and roof would be too slick. Using common sense, we called (Member name removed) apologetically to say that it was too dangerous to do the job. She was furious when we said that the schedule was booked into mid-December, and we understood her ire at having waited so long only to be put off due to uncontrollable circumstances, so... 3. . . . we offered to help find someone who might not have such a busy schedule, so that she could get the work done without waiting so long. We explained that we could not/would not cancel another person's appointment on another day in order to work in an appointment for a day on which weather interrupted our schedule. It just wouldn't be fair to another person who had waited so long. She was not happy. It is our sincere desire to leave every home with not only a happy client, but one who will invite us back . . . and will tell friends and family that ours is the company with whom they should deal! There are some things over which we have no control, and weather is one of them. We won't endanger our technicians in order to make the sale; that won't change. However, we will - like Santa Clause in "Miracle on 42nd Street - refer you to someone else if we cannot handle your job. Integrity and common sense go hand in hand with marketing and customer service, if you're dealing with Chimney Chasers or LeavesOut. You can bank on it. Please don't hesitate to call us if you have questions. Thank you, and God bless!

They did a great job. He showed up at the exact time he said he would. The job costs exactly what he said it would. He did a good job, thorough, cleaned up after himself. All the debris and stuff that came out of the gutters he cleaned it all out. The placement is good. When he left it looked as good as it did when he showed up and he was friendly. Highly recommended!

I asked him to check the flue on the chimney because it was stuck open and could not be closed. He looked and found a metal piece designed to keep the flue open and told me that it was a common thing. He removed the piece and instructed me to always be sure to open the flue when I wanted to use the fireplace. He showed me how to open and close it. There was nothing else required on the fireplace. He quoted me $150.00 to clean the gutters and I agreed and asked him how much for the chimney. Since he spent all of 3 minutes on that, he shrugged and said $25.00.He did very good job of cleaning the gutters and I was pleased enough with his debris clean-up. He quoted prices for some additional work on the chimney exterior. Other quotes for the same work are much lower and I won't be using this company for that work. After the gutter cleaning, I was told that future cleanings would be higher; that he hadn't charged me enough for the job. I have never paid that much in the past for gutter cleaning and will not be calling this company in the future for gutter cleaning. I've given an overall B, because the work was very satisfactory, but grumbling about his own price turned me off.

Response from Chimney Chasers
Hi [member name removed], I'm a bit distressed that your experience with our company was dissatisfactory. As you may recall, the reason I came to your home initially was for the chimney. Our minimum inspection fee is 125.00. As it turned out, I informed you that I did gutter cleaning as well and we agreed on a price for me to do that. When I shrugged and said 25.00 for the fireplace, you just received a 100.00 discount. You'll make the 25.00 up in one or two months of energy savings next winter. You were paying for my expertise in chimney matters and I think you made out pretty good! There are times that I quote prices that are less than they should have been (according to comparable jobs that we have done in the past). I am the one who suggested the term "grumble" when I told you that the next time would be more as "grumble factor" is a term I frequently use when determining the cost or future cost of a job or service. I apologize for obviously not being more diplomatic when suggesting that I had been off on the quote and that it would be more next time. When a person finishes cleaning all of the gutters on a sprawling 4600 square foot home with steeply pitched roof lines, as well as cleaning up the debris, one may end up less tactful or diplomatic as they might have been otherwise. As to getting the job done for less money, I am all about that, within reason. We, are a legitimate, full time, tax paying, experienced, advertising, insured, sober....company, with many years of experience, opposed to others that may not be so credible. The other work that you said my prices were too high on; 225.00 to re-paint/caulk your chimney's shroud and chase pan and 300.00 to repair holes in the stucco on your chimney (you provide matching paint), I believe to be very fair. We are particularly competitive in pricing but if you can get the same jobs done for less, providing the quality is there, I say go for it. I would! Angies List customers (as well as anyone else for that matter) are very important to me! I just couldn't let my first Angies List customer to say that they would not use me again go, without throwing "my two cents worth" in. I hope that you will reconsider whether or not I was fair to you and possibly even consider using us again! With all due respect, Barry Belyeu

From the first call to the completion of the job the experience was excellent. Barry called to discuss the job and set up a time. He called prior to arrival to let me know he was on his way. He did a great job cleaning out the gutters and also found that I had some shingles that had blown off during one of the storms. He was able to replace those for me. He could not have been more polite or more professional. I will definitely recommend him and use Chimney Chasers again.

Arrived right on time. Did a good job cleaning the gutters. Picked up and disposed of all debris. The cost did go up $25 over what was quoted on the phone due to the steepness and size of our roof. Would use again.
My house is 35 years old and the chimney had never been cleaned. Through my research, I knew I wanted a chimney sweep who was certified with Chimney Safety Institute of America. I joined Angie's List to find one. I also had concerns about the possibility of chimney leaks causing water to go into a crawl space area of the basement. I found Chimney Chasers on Angie's List. Barry also offers other services. He cleaned the chimney and installed a new chimney pan. He took care of removing a large amount of lent from the dryer vent. He removed leaves in the gutters, and caulked areas of the gutters that I knew were leaking. He tuck pointed areas of need on the chimney. Over the 3 visits to do all the service needs I had, I found Barry to be respectful and kind. His language is clean and he is a gentleman. I had never met Barry when I contacted his business. I now highly recommend him.

Barry was friendly, communicative and professional. He arrived on time and parked his truck thoughtfully, considering the parking area for these condos. He explained that the flue might have problems due to age; however, he was pleasantly surprised that all was well! A home inspection report had indicated problems with the firebox. On the phone, Barry projected the cost to repair would be $365 based on the report; however, upon his examination he explained that the inspector's observed cracks were superficial and repair/replacement was not required. He told me how to paint the screen and back walls for appearance. He charged for the chimney cleaning only, as quoted on the phone when I called for his services. He provided a great deal of information along with a chimney cleaning.
Description of Work: Tenants used fireplace often. Barry cleaned ash from hearth; cleaned chimney and hearth; got on roof and checked integrity of flue. Explained everything about this 40 year-old fireplace and chimney and what/how he was checking for possible issues. Very professional. I highly recommend his services.

They came out and they were very polite. They estimated the job for me. I have not decided yet whether I’m going to have it done or not. I thought they were very well versed in their business and they were very professional. It was just that they gave me news that I wasn’t expecting. They told me that the chimney is not in good shape so they told me that it had to be rebuilt. They pointed out everything to me and I understand that. They were very quick. They got back to me within a day. They were actually early.

Problem fixed. Would definitely recommend Chimney Chasers. They responded quickly .Barry showed up at the appointed time. He was articulate, explaining what he saw and the problem. He even took pictures of the top of the chimney, to show me what it looked like before and after he worked on it.
Description of Work: When ever it rained, there was a constant sound of dripping on metal, coming from the chimney. Berry inspected the chimney, adjusted the chase pan and chalked.
