A-Tec Chimney Sweep

The A-Tec crew were great from start to finish. My chimney was severely compromised due to some vegetation growing out of it and these guys went above and beyond rebuilding and making it right again. Then finishing with a cap. I was very impressed.

Contracted them to rebuild both our chimneys and put in liners for the chimney. They showed up on time for the estimate and to do the job as well, they we’re very easy to work with and explained each step of the process and even built a decorative corbel top that looks spectacular which I was not expecting. Would recommend

The chimney build was improperly completed, leading to ceiling and wall water damage. A tech tech came out to investigate twice. One tech dropped a large HVAC vent which damaged our wall and floor. He informed us that the roofing installed by the masons was installed incorrectly because “they are masons, not roofers.” The roof had to be reopened and reinstalled around the chimney. The owner did not want to put damages through insurance and told the tech had to fix it himself. I told him it needed to be fixed professionally. I had to reach out to the owner after a week. He told me that he wouldn’t be repairing anything. After explaining the damage was result of incorrect installation, he asked me to send him pictures. Days later I realized that the owner had blocked my number. I called from another phone and the owner said he wasn’t going to make any repairs. He said if I had any other issues from the install and wanted to be “a nit-picking customer”, I was now “on my own”.

I met James first, he came over and did a full assessment of the situation. He was very informative, polite, professional and caring, overall great customer service. He came back on the day of the appointment with Matt. They were both on time and did a beautiful job with the Chimney. Both James and Matt, were very informative and gave great customer service. I can't over emphasize how great of a job they did. We're extremely happy with job and we would definitely hire them again for another job. Thank you Guys ! Job done today 11/10/2022

I can’t overemphasize how impressed I am with service and how knowledgeable James and Brandon are. We have known about chimney leak for awhile but are selling home so we needed to resolve ASAP. A Tech quoted a fair price to re-flash and although there was substantial more work that had to be done; they stood by original quote! I highly recommend them for anyone who is in need of any chimney service

They did a great job, they are on time, efficient, clean and quick. They did a good job. I will recommend them to others.

A-Tec was readily schedulable and arrived in the early part of their 3 hour window, calling ahead when they 40 minutes out. The job was completed efficiently. The lead sweep, Steve, provided some valuable commentary as they went through the job. The other sweep, whose name I did not catch, did most of the on-roof work and also re-caulked our chimney's flashing. Overall I was very pleased with the entire experience. I would recommend and plan to have them back in the future.

I called to schedule and informed the lady that I spoke to of the manufacturer of our insert. She was prompt and helpful and scheduled a service visit for the next week. When the technicians arrived, they were unfamiliar with our insert. They spent time trying to figure it out, partially removed it from the hearth, broke several bolts retaining the catalytic unit and then gave up and told us "we can't help you.

It went well. Brendan was very good and professional. The price was pretty steep. I knew what it could cost in advance but one of the chimneys barely needed cleaning so I was hoping for a break. Since this was a property we just bought it was reassuring to have the service. Not sure if I would hire them again at that steep price. Way more than other quotes but the reviews sold us gong with A-Tec

Staff was very responsive to phone calls and luckily had a cancellation so I got a same day appointment. Technicians were very thorough, took pictures of everything inspected and reviewed with me. Work needed to be done and I did not feel at all pressured to commit. They cleaned up everything and showed me before and after pictures. Would absolutely recommend this company in the future and plan to continue to use for maintenance!!

A-Tec was timely, very good work, very fair price. They were professional and knew what they were doing. Reviewed 3 providers and the prices were all over the lot. I was looking for a repair and not a rebuild. He actually did more work than the estimate indicated, did not charge extra.

Our last chimney cap was sloppily installed and blew off in a nor'easter. A-TEC did a nice job for a fair price, and we're having them back to do some repointing work that wasn't evident from a ground level inspection.

James and his crew did an excellent on rebuilding the chimney (roof-line up), and installing a new liner/cap. The team arrived on time and did exactly what was quoted for the agreed on price. Plus, they did the work on the hottest day of the year, it was 98 on the ground, can't imagine what it was on the roof.

A-tech installed a Cap on my chimney. The technicians were very friendly, and the process went smoothly. Would definitely recommend.

Was having the chimney sweep and the fireplace. they recommend a liner To the furnace from chimney and that's what they did Same Day.

Very well, prompt , very knowledgeable, informative. A challenging job, very well executed. Neat!

This company was awesome! They promptly responded to my request for an estimate and showed up on time for the estimate appointment and the repair appointment. Very professional and area was left clean. Would definitely recommend!

The technicians arrived on time, did a quick inspection, showed me pictures of the chimney and damper and then described what should be done. I opted for a chimney cleaning, chemical cleaning and then replacement of the damper. The team was very knowledgeable and respected my house by sealing off the fireplace during cleaning and getting any loose dust with a shop-vac. Was very pleased with the work, would recommend them to others and I would use them again.

very well were very neat and did a great job

very well were very neat and did a great job

Did not receive discount on chimney cap as advertised. The masonry joints were not completely cleaned of loose mortar and repaired. The sealant was put on over bricks and joints that were not thoroughly cleaned of moss. Crown sealer in center of chimney did not cure and washed away -

Our flue chimney was in such bad shape we needed it completely rebuilt from the roof line up. It looks so good now! Before there was a leak into the attic, but now after heavy rains everything under the roof is bone dry. $3000 is a lot to spend on a chimney just from the roof up but it is a reasonable price considering the work done to the liner, flashing, new cap, inspection, and sweeping. I am glad I trusted the positive ratings rather than getting someone else to do it cheaper, since I'm sure if it was cheaper it would not be as good of a job.

We bought our home in the fall of 2018, a 100+ year old colonial with great bones and a lot of small projects to take care of. The house had been in the same family since it was built, and we had two older chimneys that needed capping and some masonry work that our home inspector said should be addressed right away. The folks at A-Tec were great to work with, fast, and super friendly. The quote they gave us over the phone was exactly what we ended up paying. They even gave me some advice on a couple of other projects they saw me working though on my own, as a first-time home owner. I would recommend them without hesitation.

Had a chimney fire so we needed a cleaning and inspection. Called A-Tec Chimney Sweep. They came out, cleaned the chimney, and proceeded to tell us we needed our flue lined. Quote for that ~$2100. Okay, we set up the appointment. They came out, climbed around our roof for a while and then told us our furnace flue was also in bad shape. Quote for that, $1300. Then they told us they couldn't do the work that day because the liner they brought wouldn't fit in the chimney and they needed to order a narrower one. Luckily for us, we have a friend who's a retired chimney sweep and had been doing this work for over 40 years. In fact, he actually worked on our chimney at one time. He warned us about the dangers of putting a narrower flue insert in the chimney. He also strongly doubted that the furnace flue was in the condition reported by A-Tec. We decided to get a second opinion. Right move! Contacted another well regarded chimney sweep and asked them to inspect our chimney. It took a little while because they are VERY busy but in the end it was worth it. Chimney's fine! Certified our chimney for use and it only cost us $100. So we saved $3300 for unnecessary repairs that may have actually compromised the function of the chimney. Moral of the story, avoid A-Tec Chimney Sweep unless you have LOTS of money to burn.

The two guys, Toney, and Jason, who came to clean the flues did an excellent job. They kept the area clean, and did a thorough job. They covered the floors before beginning work with a large black cloth to keep everything clean too. I had also asked that they put a cap back on that blew off a while back, while they were there cleaning the flues, and they did that at no additional charge. Tony recommended a stainless steel chimney cap to cover all three flues, for a pellet, boiler, and wood stove. The price quoted for that will be $500, but it will keep things out and keep the liner for the boiler from deteriorating more than it is. Initially Tony thought the liner may be already to the point of replacing it, but after looking at it while on the roof, he said it wasn’t as bad as he initially suspected, and I could go at least a few more years with it. Which is an honest assessment, also good to hear.
