Erik's Clean Sweep

Erik was very pleasant and professional. He explained everything he was doing. He researched our stove and help us get it burning again. Would highly recommend!!

Super. Hire him. He's prompt, responsible, smart, helpful.

Erik is the best! Clean, professional, courteous and all-around nice guy. He cleaned both our wood stove and furnace flues and gave me updates on how everything looks. He's doesn't push annual cleaning if you don't need it - I really appreciate that!

Erik was so professional, arrived on time. Cleaned out our dryer vent which took way more time than he thought it would due to build up within the vent. He still charged the quoted price. We thought we would need our chimney to be cleaned out because we moved in a few years ago and had never used it. He surprised us by saying it didn't need to be cleaned- very honest! This is the main reason I would hire him again but really, it was an overall great experience.

Noticed with all the rain that we have been having, one gutter was overflowing at the top. Put out the request on a Friday and Erik was on my doorstep at 10AM the next day. Erik was friendly, prompt. Very happy with his work. Will definitely hire again.

This is my 3rd year using him. He is professional and his prices are great. I would strongly recommend him.

Erik is a thorough craftsman who cleaned the chimney from top to bottom and inspected the masonry inside the fireplace. He is meticulously clean and a pleasure to work with. We have been disappointed with other chimney cleaners who took shortcuts and short-changed the job because they didn't want to deal with our high chimney.

Excellent results for three years in a row. I look forward to hiring Erik this year to reprise his work here.

He arrived on time and completed the work on a Saturday morning.

Went very well. Erik was prompt and did a very good job for a reasonable fee.

After my difficult issue wasn't fixed the first time, Erik promptly returned a 2nd time to investigate further. His keen thinking and sharp eye helped identify and fix the root cause of the issue. Extremely happy with the experience as Erik was helpful and patient in helping to solve our issue. All at a fair price. Thanks again Erik!

I met Erik Friday afternoon for a Chimney Inspection on a house my wife and I are currently closing on. I could not be more pleased with the experience. He is both friendly and professional, he took the time to explain what he was doing, what he was looking for, and how it impacts us both now and in the future. He was careful to clean up and protect the current home owner's home and was very easy to talk to and work with. This is the first time I've had a home with a chimney, and assuming everything goes through with the closing Erik's Clean Sweep will be the first company we contact anytime we need anything with the wood burning fire place or coal burning stove.

Erik and crew were quick to return my call and came out to the house the next day right on time. Great service and reasonable fees.

Erik was early, professional and performed the service quickly. Glad i contacted him

Erik thoroughly cleaned our gutter/roof on a steep pitch that I could not reach with the latter I had. He also fixed part of the gutter and unclogged a downspout, as well as cleaning debris from our roof/skylights. He was very courteous and professional. We will definitely continue to use his service every year. Thanks Eric.

Last year, he inspected my chimney. I was happy with his work. This year, he's awol.

Erik arrived promptly on the scheduled day. He was very courteous and professional. Erik inspected and cleaned our chimney then replaced our stove pipe. This was a scheduled service. (Erik had cleaned our chimney last year, and at that time we were concerned about the condition of the stove pipe. He had inspected it , and determined it was in good condition to use then, but recommended it being replaced with this year's cleaning.) Finally, Erik cleaned the interior of our coal stove. There was absolutely no coal ash outside the stove or in the air. Erik takes great care to keep his surroundings clean. He will answer any questions and explain his work. This was the second year we have used Erik's Clean Sweep and we will continue to use his service. We are A+ satisfied!

Erik and his partner arrived early, which was much appreciated since I had told him I had to be somewhere later in the afternoon. I wasn't sure if the fireplace was in good enough shape to burn wood, since it had a propane insert when we purchased it last year. Erik inspected the interior and exterior of the fireplace & chimney and said everything was in good shape. He also removed the propane insert's exhaust chute, removed the gas pipeline, and sealed the interior hole where the pipeline came through. They were completely finished and cleaned up in 1 hour. They were both extremely nice and professional. We will definitely be using them for cleanings in the future!

Erik called within 24 hours to set up an appointment as well as the same day just to confirm. Very professional and helpful and he will have to come back this week to install a Chimney Cap. I will use again in the future.

Expert service, very professional, no pressure, extremely reasonable rates. Erik and Mike arrived a bit late (but after a check-in phone call), stayed for almost an hour, and charged less than I expected. They answered my questions clearly and explained how I can do my own stove maintenance more easily. Would definitely hire them again.

I couldn't have hoped for better service in all respects. I contacted Erik's Clean Sweep through Angie's List after a squirrel had gained access to my home through the chimney. Erik and his partner, Mike, arrived approximately 15 minutes early on the appointed day, and within a short time had completed the initial inspection of the upper part of the chimney and existing chimney cap. Inside the house, drop-cloths were placed on the floor before beginning the inspection of the lower part of the chimney flue and smoke chamber/firebox. As there was a large amount of debris to be cleaned out of this lower area, Mike "tented" Erik while this work was done to prevent dust/soot from entering the living area. (This involved using a covering that was secured over/around Erik and close against the top and sides of the fireplace.) Erik and Mike knew how to address every issue encountered, no matter how unusual, and were resourceful in finding solutions. They made an extra effort to find a new chimney cap right away when an appropriate size/design was not readily available through normal channels, and this allowed for installation of the critter-proof cap the same day (much to my relief). They also devised a simple fix for a faulty damper mechanism, restoring the option to secure the damper in the closed position. I very much appreciated the extra effort and ingenuity that allowed for resolution of all issues so quickly, especially with no mess inside my home; and needless to say, I highly recommend Erik's Clean Sweep.

Erik was prompt in returning my call and sitting a service date. He was clean during the service, and he cleaned up after himself. And the price was very fair.

They arrived on time, and despite the chimney being very dirty (previous owner never cleaned it), they finished the job quickly. I thought the chimney may need a new liner and suggested as much. While they could have agreed with me and made additional money, they were kind enough to let me know that it wasn't necessary at this point. I was told that all I needed was to have a mason fix the top two blocks. I appreciated the honesty and would recommend this business to others.

Erik and Mike arrived and spread out their tarps and went to work on our wood stove. We had a lot of problems with smoking and a bad odor. We are new owners of our home and didn't know the last time the chimney was cleaned. It was amazing the amount of creosote and ash the guys got out of the chimney and pipe (along with a poor little squirrel). They did a fantastic job and the area was as clean when they left as it was when they got here. They were very informative and really know their stuff. We will call them in the spring to have the stove checked again. Please do them and yourself a favor and call right after the burn season and don't wait until the last minute to get your stove or fireplace ready for the season.

It went fine. Erik only charged me for inspecting the second chimney instead of charging me to clean that one also. His honesty is much appreciated.
