Ashes No Flashes Chimney Service

He quickly figured out that the burner was too big for the firebox. George carefully explained the options to me (replace the burner and logs; convert to ventless; or convert to wood burning). I opted for wood burning and he came back at an agreed-upon time and did the work. George didn’t display any unhappiness that I went with what happened to be the cheapest option, and while he was doing the work he offered a number of tips for getting the most out of the fireplace. He also recommended a good firewood vendor. If you want a pro who knows exactly what he’s doing, it’s George and Ashes No Flashes.

George was great! Explained everything in simplest terms for us as new homeowners and promptly got to fixing the problems we needed done.

I wanted a longtime unused fireplace to be evaluated for possible use. I needed George to evaluate and see if my fireplace/chimney was even usable to burn wood - which he said it was (with some modest updating work). So I asked George to provide me with pricing to get it fit to burn wood again and another option to retro-fit it to use gas instead of wood. I chose to go with the gas option . . . The work was done promptly and neatly and to my full satisfaction

Excellent. George called me back after a panicked voice mail and set up an appointment right away. He was a straight shooter and did an excellent job.

They were fine. He handles it about every 3 years I think, every fall for my fireplace. He cleans my fireplace and basically the chimney, in the inside of it, whatever the lining is going up to the chimney. I’ve had them here before, I’ve had them here many times over the years. I don’t remember what I paid, if it was way too much I wouldn’t have had them come back. I’ve probably used them 4 or 5 times now, I don’t remember.

I have used them for years, they are absolutely wonderful! I would never use anyone else.

Very happy with all work done.

It went really well, they showed up on time, were courteous, tidy and helped explain everything in detail. Definitely recommend!

He was very professional, but I thought expensive. However, I have not had a problem with my fireplace.

The closet looks great and is now functional! The fireplace now works. George seemed honest about the quality of our fireplace and gave us various suggestions on replacement or repairs. Overall his team did a good job.

They were fantastic. I would use them again and will be for all my future chimney needs.

Traffic was very bad that day and George called to say he was running late, which was very understandable. When he arrived he immediately apologized for being late and did so at least 3 other times. When they come into your house they immediately lay down runners on your carpeting to make certain that they do not dirty anything. They then inspect the chimney and bring their equipment inside. They cleaned the chimney thoroughly and did a second inspection. George is very good at providing tips to keep you chimney in shape, such as the type of wood to burn and how long you should burn your fires. He recommended a wood guy who I found to be the same or less expensive than other I called and his wood is a lot drier and cleaner. George found some tuckpointing needed on my chimney and will come back to do that for me as well. Great company, very reliable and honest.

Excellent experience with them! My advice would be to book far in advance as they become booked quickly. Will use this service provider in the future.

I never heard back from them.

They were great! Prompt, professional and though. Bought a deal on Angies List and didn't cost me anything beyond that. Very satisfied, will definitely use them again.

George was quick with the estimate and quickly performed all the repairs even though it was the busy season. Everything is working great. Highly recommend them.

Response to initial voice-mail message was prompt. I had several questions about our gas logs that George answered during the initial phone call. An appointment was made for the cleaning of the chimney and gas logs and for installation of a clip to allow the damper to be held open about an inch. George and his helper arrived when scheduled and performed the work as discussed for the price originally quoted. George also provided information for the safe use of the fireplace and gas logs. Very happy with the work and the care they took to protect the hardwood floor in the room.

Ashes no flashes was extremely responsive to work with. They came out a few days after I called for a quote and gave me a very competitive price. I also had out some other larger chimney services and they were by far the most professional in explaining my issue with the camp fire smoke smell coming from my fireplace and how to resolve it. And they were right on. The new chimney damper worked wonders and I haven't had any smell in the worst month of the year for us! Thank you Ashes No Flashes. You did a great job and the price was in my budget!! It goes to show how you can get exceptional service from a smaller company and a great price. Thanks!!

Ashes No Flashes Chimney Repair were cheaper than another company that we had gotten a quote from. They knew what they were doing and everything seemed to be fine.

From start to finish- great job

They provided good service. They didn't try to sell us anything. They were very professional. They were very helpful in helping us to troubleshoot our problem. I would definitely recommend them. He was very truthful.

We purchased our home in November of 2012. We knew the previous owner spent a large chunk of change on having a giant stone fireplace added to the home as part of an overall addition, but were unaware of any specific level of care that had been paid to it. Before moving in, we had George come out and inspect it, sweep it, and give us his professional opinion regarding quality of craftsmanship. George came over on short notice, after completing a previous call to another residence earlier in the day. He arrived promptly, performed a great service, gave us a rundown on proper usage and care of the fireplace, and even noticed something on the roof (non-chimney related) that needed attention. I don't recall the exact price we paid, but it was reasonable; especially for high-quality, same-day service. I'll call George again.

George was extremely pleasant to work with and very prompt in responses. He even rearranged his schedule to help accommodate ours. While the projects were pricier than I initially imagined, once I realized all that needed to be done it seemed very fair. He fixed all the problems with our fireplace and chimney and kept everything very neat the entire time. We've had 7 or 8 fires so far and everything is working great! Will definitely keep George as our annual chimney cleaning guy. Will also most likely use him to put new doors on fireplace.

George did an excellent job. He came and gave an estimate. I then scheduled the work based on when he was available. He was on time--actually early--and did an excellent job. Work was very neat and clean. I would definitely recommend them and will use them again.

George seems very organized and competent, and operates workspace very neatly and is very businesslike. He brought a helper and they spent a couple of hours working diligently on fixing everything. Definitely get the idea that the fireplace is in tip-top shape now.
