"Robbed, flat out. Took me for supplies, came back with partial (old crap) and then never showed, after weeks of excuses. Wife, supposedly, and himself. Look this guy up, he just robs people and seemingly gets away with it. Also seems to do shoddy work. DO NOT USE THESE PEOPLE. Willing to rip off older people as well. Is he still in the area? Probably moved on to newer hunting grounds."

A-1 Chimney Specialist LLC has been providing the Tullahoma and Winchester, Tennessee areas with quality chimney care since 2000. No matter what your chimney or fireplace needs, we have the knowledge and experience to help! We provide a variety of fireplace and chimney services, including: Chimney Sweeping Chimney Inspections (Levels 1 and 2) Chimney Repairs and Restoration (including chimney relining) Leak Troubleshooting and Repair (including flashing installation and waterproofing) Gas Fireplace Service According to research compiled by the U.S. Fire Administration, there was an average of 50,100 residential fires involving heating appliances each year, from 2008 to 2010. These fires resulted in millions of dollars’ worth of damage and over 100 civilian deaths. One of the best ways to protect your family from being included in these statistics is to have your system regularly maintained and inspected for problems. Regular maintenance can detect problems such as creosote buildup, flue obstructions, and water damage in the early stages of development. If left untreated, all of these problems can lead to fire, inefficiency, smoke or carbon monoxide problems, and structural dangers. At A-1, we know the importance of protecting your home and family from these dangers, and work hard to keep your fireplace and chimney system working efficiently and safely.
"Robert Allen; A-1 Chimney Specialist, came out and looked at the chimney. He took pictures and discussed the options for what needed to be done. Very friendly. I felt at ease not pressured. He explained everything in detail so I could understand. He let me ask questions and gave me straight to the point answers. I was worried about the rain leaking into the carpet. Mr. Allen told me about waterproofing the chimney which I chose. I am on a budget and Thank God; he made a way for me to afford the services. The men came out; sealed both flue tiles with a metal covering and repaired the overhang. The chimney was pressure washed and water proofed with chimney saver. Cold air doesn't come into the house and the heat stays inside the house now. My flowers and plants weren't damaged during the whole process. It rained alot after the waterproofing and overhang was completed. The chimney remained dry inside the house. I prayed for a company that would fix the problem with an affordable price and flexible payment system. My prayers were answered. I recommend using this company. I was given a packet with all the services they perform. I went to their website and did comparisons with other companies before calling A-1 Chimney Specialist."

While it’s possible to sweep your own chimney, it’s usually not a good idea for two reasons. First, inexperienced DIYers are more likely to miss areas of the chimney, which still leaves the risk of house fire due to the remaining residue. Second, chimney sweeping seems like a simple process, but it’s highly dangerous. Soot and creosote are both carcinogenic and can cause breathing issues and lung damage. If you don’t take the same safety precautions that professionals do, you could be putting yourself at risk of serious bodily harm.
You should plan to ask your chimney sweeper questions about the cleaning process they intend to use, the project timeline, and more to get a sense of which professional is right for the job:
What is your process for cleaning chimneys?
How long will the process take?
Will you protect my floors from soot and debris?
Will you do a chimney inspection, too?
Do you have certification from the Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA) or the National Fire Institute (NFI)?
Will you need access to my roof?
The average cost for a professional chimney cleaning is around $250, but prices range from $130 to $400 or more, depending on a few factors. Some things that have an impact on your total include the size of your chimney, the number of chimneys cleaned, and how accessible the chimneys are.
In some cases, you don’t need to do anything to prepare for chimney sweeping, but professionals always appreciate leaving the area clean and easy to access. As such, it’s a good idea to move fireplace accessories like screens and fire tending tools out of the way, and lay down tarps of drop cloths around your fireplace opening to help keep your floors clean. Laying down a plastic sheet under those cloths or tarps is a good idea if your fireplace is surrounded by carpeting, just to add extra protection. Finally, secure any pets or children away from the work area.
The National Fire Prevention Agency (NFPA) recommends chimney sweeping once per year as a means of avoiding house fires and massive property damage. Over time, creosote and soot build up in your chimney from burning wood and a lack of ventilation. These compounds are both highly flammable, which means a build-up of them inside your chimney puts you at an increased risk of house fire. Chimney sweeping removes any residue and helps reduce the risk of property damage and personal injury from fire.
