Chimney was not entirely cleaned and company said that a fire could happen in our house if we did not tuckpoint some interior portions immediately. We had a second and third opinion, both said that indeed there was some work to be done, but no, it would not start a fire and their quote were both a 1/3 of what we were quoted.

Response from Ash Wipers Chimney Sweep Inc
I am sorry you are disappointed with our service , when we cleaned your chimney a large amount of the mortar and several bricks were falling out of the chimney as your home is over 100 years old it is our opinion and I can assure you that the work we pointed out needs to be done and the Fireplace is not safe to use , I also feel the price you were quoted was fair . The bids you got that were lower may not have been for the amount of service required to hold up for many years .This job was done in December of 2016 If you would have called us with any concerns about your chimney we would have sent someone to recheck the work we did as we guarantee all of our work to be of the highest quality.

I left them a message last night but they didn't call me back. I called them again mid-morning. I spoke to a woman who told me that they only do repair work when it is their slow season - springtime. She went on to tell me that the water intrusion was probably just due to the wind. I would feel a lot more comfortable with a service call to conduct an actual analysis of the issue but she refused to schedule one and hung up on me instead. Back to Angie's List to find another option...
Description of Work: Contacted them over the phone to ask about having someone out to diagnose a problem observed during the storm last night. Woman who answered their phone refused to send a tech and hung up on me.

They did a great job both times. The man who cleaned the chimney on 10/9/2012 was courteous and professional. He cleaned up his work area after he finished, also.
Description of Work: On 10/9/2012, he cleaned the chimney. Of note, prior to then, this is the same company that did the cleaning and repairs to the chimney for it to pass inspection when we bought the house in August of 2011.

It was a very good consumer experience. Keith arrived exactly when he was scheduled to. He spent some time looking at the system and answering questions I had. I have not used a fireplace before, so I had many questions. He helped me understand the system and now I'll feel very comfortable using it. He even offered a few suggestions for things I could do myself to improve my fireplace. He moved swiftly and finished quickly, but I never felt rushed. I'll totally be calling the Ash Wipers again.

They were punctual and did a good job. Even though it is kind of a messy job, everything was nice and clean when they left. They were recommended by somebody else from work; I don’t know how their price would compare with others. I would use them again in the future if necessary.

My husband wanted the chimneys in our new house cleaned right away so that we could have a fire in the fireplace as soon as possible. I called several places which had long waits. Ash Wipers was able to schedule service within a week due to a cancellation. They provided advance pricing and polite phone reminders. The two men who came arrived in the first half of the window provided, went straight to work, and completed their work quickly. They draped the floor, cleaned after themselves and left no mess. There were no extra charges over the estimate.
Description of Work: Inspected and cleaned two chimneys.

After ash wipers did the work i had another company come do some repair chimney work for me and they told me that the chimney needed to be cleaned. They showed me that the chimney was not as clean as it could have been and that there were two different ways to clean a chimney and that brush method didnt as clean as it could have been. Ash wipers recommendation for repair was kind of a band-aid fix instead of fixing it completely. I did not have them do the repair job. I would not recommend them.

Response from Ash Wipers Chimney Sweep Inc
WE STAND BY THE REPAIR ESTIMATE THAT YOU WERE GIVEN. IT SOUNDS TO ME THAT YOU WERE GIVEN A LOT OF REPAIRS THAT WERE NOT NECESSARY. WE HAVE BEEN IN THE BUSINESS FOR OVER 30 YEARS. I CAN TELL YOU THIS IS A SCAM I HAVE SEEN A LOT. SOMEONE COMES IN AND SAYS THE CHIMNEY WASN'T CLEANED PROPERLY AND NEEDS A LOT MORE WORK. I KNOW THIS FIREPLACE HAD SERIOUS DEFECTS AND WAS A FIRE HAZARD. I JUST HOPE THEY DID THE JOB RIGHT AND NO ONE IS HURT FROM A HOUSE FIRE. I WOULD BE WILLING TO CHECK THE WORK THEY DID TO MAKE SURE IT WAS DONE RIGHT. TO ALL OF ANGIE'S LIST MEMBERS DON'T BE TAKEN IN BY THESE KIND OF SCAMS. IF AFTER WE CLEAN YOUR FIREPLACE AND SOMEONE TELLS YOU THE JOB WAS NOT DONE RIGHT AND NEEDS ADDITIONAL WORK, PLEASE LET US KNOW SO THAT WE CAN TAKE THE PROPER ACTION BY RECHECKING THE CHIMNEY AND IF IT IS A SCAM WE WILL NOTIFY THE PROPER AUTHORITIES.

I paid for 2 guys to do the job when I only needed one. One guy cleaned the chimney while the other guy poked around and pointed out every minor thing that looked like it might need repaired. If you only need a cleaning this is not the company for you.

THE PRICE WE CHARGE IS THE SAME FOR ONE OR TWO WORKERS. WE ALWAYS DO A CLOSE INSPECTION OF ALL FIREPLACES AND PROVIDE A WRITTEN CERTIFIED CONDITION REPORT FOR ALL OUR CUSTOMERS. IT IS OUR POLICY TO ALWAYS INSPECT CHIMNEYS WHEN WE CLEAN THEM. ALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENTS IN OUR AREA WILL ALWAYS RECOMMEND THAT CHIMNEYS BE INSPECTED ANNUALLY, TO CHECK FOR DEFECTS ITS BEST TO REPAIR THEM BEFORE THEY BECOME FIRE HAZARDS.

Our chimney caps were damaged by fallen limbs and as a result we also got an animal nest in out flue. Charlotte was very helpful and friendly on the phone. At first, they weren't going to be able to do our job because we have a slate roof, but once they determined that the chimney was accessible without walking on the roof, Charlotte called me back (after hours) and got someone there much quicker than our second choice company. The sweeps were on time and reasonably friendly, did a pretty quick job, and they charged what they said.
Description of Work: They cleaned an animal nest out of the flue liner and replaced two chimney caps, one for flue and one for the fireplace.

Ash wipers did a good job. They were prompt. They inspected the chimney covers, animal guards, fireboxes, hearths, smoke chambers, smoke shelves, lintels and dampers. They cleaned both chimneys. They did not make a mess.

I was very happy with the prompt service. My furniture was moved away from the soot and my carpets covered and protected. After he was done, he moved everything back. He did not try to sell me extra services, and he pointed out areas that may need to be worked on at a later date. He also suggested the best time of year to get it done is when companies are not as busy and more likely to give a good deal to get the business.
Description of Work: They checked out our chimney since we bought a new house and they cleaned it.

THEY WERE VERY RESPONSIVE. RECEIVED NEXT DAY SERVICE. NOT SURE IF THAT WAS A GOOD THING AS THIS MAY INDICATE THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE MUCH OF A CUSTOMER BASE OR I CALLED DURING A SLOW TIME OF THE YEAR. THEY WERE NOT PUSHY AND HELPFUL IN EXPLAINING WHAT NEEDED TO BE DONE. THEY REMOVED AN OLD FURNACE STACK FROM A COMBUSTIBLE FURNACE THAT WAS NO LONGER NEEDED. THEY LEFT THE REMOVED MATERIALS IN THE YARD. WE DID NOT AGREE UPON REMOVAL SOMETHING THAT WILL BE DISCUSSED WITH THE NEXT CONTRACTOR.
Description of Work: TUCK POINTING, REPLACEMENT OF CHIMNEY COVERS AND INSPECTION OF CHIMNEYS. THERE ARE A TOTAL OF TWO FIREPLACES THAT WERE SERVICED. REMOVED FURNACE STACK FROM OIL FURNACE THAT HAD BEEN REPLACED WITH AN ELECTRIC UNIT. CLEANED OLD FLU.
