Turns out the chimney was in good shape and didn’t need to be cleaned. He only charged us a smaller fee for the inspection instead of the full cost of a cleaning.

Nick and his son Nick did a fantastic job, I am extremely pleased. They arrived on time, were very personable and did a professional job. I would recommend Black Goose Chimney Sweep service to everyone who owns a fireplace. Nick also suggested repairing the chimney cap which was cracked by him applying a coating which would extend the life of the existing chimney cap at a much lower cost than replacing it.

Nick was wonderful; warm and friendly and prompt. He was honest and informed me my chimney was clean. He checked everything thoroughly; told me what he was able to do and couldn't do. Since I have a slate roof, he is not equipped to walk on them but suggested what kind of cap to get and when I get some slates repaired, the roofers will be able to put it on. Nick was thorough in his evluation, gave me helpful suggestions and did not do any work that did not need being done. Again, Nick was great. I asked him for some business cards and will most certainly recommend him to friends and neighbors.
Description of Work: Checked the chimney for cleaning Repaired damper Caulked between the tile in the living room floor and the fireplace.

He was very helpful and professional. We had to make numerous modifications (unforeseen) in order to install my stove. We had to do this on a Saturday since I work during the week. I couldn't have done it without him. A high quality person and a very good experience!

The chimney repair guy came in and looked at the chimney and the lining and made sure that we could use them. He was very punctual and very timely. He had gotten over the roof and had half the work done before I got home from work. He is very professional.
Description of Work: We bought the house in September; so we wanted the chimney and the lining checked before we could use.

I had problems with my chimney damper for years. I called to have Nick come out for an estimate in replacing the damper with a new chimney-top version. In 5 minutes he fixed the old damper, showed me how to use it correctly, and only charged me $20 for the service. Someone else might have charged me more for a service call, or worse charged me for a new damper. Very honest.
Description of Work: I was asking for a quote on a new chimney damper. Nick performed some quick repairs instead.

We were very satisfied with Black Goose Chimney Sweep in Plum Pa. When we first contacted the company, we were given a reasonable quote for an inspection and if needed, a sweep for a cost of $100. Upon inspection of the chimney, the sweep was not necessary. We would definitely utilize and recommend this company again for their honest, cost efficient and informative service.
Description of Work: Inspected the chimney - repaired a crack and taught us how to use our fireplace, explained what to look for in purchasing fire wood and what to request. Provided documentation for future.

They do a great job. If your chimney doesn't need to be cleaned, they won't do it. They don't do unnecessary work just to charge you. They are very professional and reliable.
Description of Work: The chimney was cleaned and checked for cracks or other damage. They examined the whole chimney inside and out and the cap.
