Jet from Neat Sweep was fantastic! She was punctual, friendly, and went above and beyond. We were struggling with a worsening odor, and she found and removed a dead squirrel from my boiler exhaust. Without being asked, she cleaned out the exhaust piping and then recommended to me the components that weren't salvageable, and how and where I could replace them. By the end of the night, my chimneys were clean, and my home smelled fresh once again. Thank you for your great service!
Description of Work: Cleaned both the fireplace and appliance chimney flues. Found and removed a dead animal from the boiler exhaust.

John Miller and Chris were both very polite and thorough. They cleaned up the hearth and inspected the chimney in a timely manner without leaving a mess behind. They took the time to explain the chimney and hearth setup which was greatly appreciated. I will definitely be re-using them for the annual cleaning.

Horrible and dishonest.! Do not use!
Description of Work: We hired Neat Sweep for a chimney inspection prior to selling our house to be sure it was in good shape prior to the sale. Neat Sweep signed off saying it was fine. As a matter of course the buyer of our house also had it inspected and found it needed over $4,000 of repairs. Neat Sweep had inspected it 2 weeks prior! When we called to notify them and get them to stand by their report, the (without bothering to even check it out again!) said, “The Chimney must have ‘shifted!’” Scam artists! Beware!!!!! Do not use!!!

The chimney was inspected, and meets contemporary standards. No chimney meets building code but this one is just like every other one. Slight cracks are normal. on top of that the inspection only cost $79.

Great job that left us satisfied. Those nasty pasty spider webs are gone!
Description of Work: I would definitely hire him again. This service was performed on an extremely hot day and raining, but never once did he complain. We liked him a lot Sharon Tanco
He found more work than we anticipated but it needed to be done. He was able to schedule us quickly and pointed up brickwork and added a cap. Did a really nice job and gave us good advice on what was required for our purpose. We would use him again

We've used them off and on over three years. They have some very aggressive call-back tactics; they call us all the time. Although when they perform a service they wait a bit. There was time where we actually went to a different service provider and then went back to them. When it got to be maybe a year since the last service, they were calling like three times a week or four times a week. Hey, we haven't heard from you in awhile. It got to the point where you answer the first few and say no, I'm not interested, and then after awhile you're looking at the caller ID going - yep, not answering that - yep, not answering that. So, their work and their technical expertise is excellent. They're very good at doing their work, but some of their marketing tactics were a little annoying. Their pricing was comparable with everything else. Their quality was excellent. They showed up exactly when they said they would and they always have. Professionalism, that's where the B comes in, per previously stated, and that's nothing to do with the people that actually come to your house; it's everything to do with more the corporate main office.
They were prompt, professional and able to do the job in one day and they did a great job. They also replaced my chimney cap with one that covered both my furnace flu and chimney. fixed the mortar around both Flue's and provided tips on radiant heat products that I had be looking at to keep the heat from going up my chimney! Will definitely hire again.
Description of Work: I needed to have my chimney re-lined due to a flaw. They first came and inspected the flu and cleaned and provided an estimate to re-line with stainless steel liner. They were very thorough and explained exactly the issues with my chimney and what was included in the price.

Had two companies inspect the chimneys. Neat Sweep's recommendations for repairs were far more reasonable than the other company's.
Description of Work: Hire to inspect chimneys of a recently purchased home
Solid service. It was expensive, but when it comes to a fireplace you really want a professional to handle any repairs. You get what you pay for and I would hire them again.
Description of Work: Repaired the mortar in the firebox, replace the cap, and cleaned the chimney. They were on time and did nice work.

Quick and courteous. They took pictures of everything to show what was going on. Real experts in their field.
Description of Work: Informed Dave that the chimney would smell. Started with Chimney Sweep. Then determined that the top of the chimney and the sides had cracked and leaked water. They repaired the top with cement and sealed the sides with cement and silicone to prevent water from coming in and the smell.
Neat Sweep was very professional and extremely helpful to answer all of our questions and performed the job above and beyond expectations. As a first time home owner, having a safe chimney is important to me. Provided guidance on future enhancements that we wanted to do: get rid of gas fireplace, convert back to wood. Gave great advice from experience on how to accomplish this. Showed genuine concern about fire safety. He offered estimates on future work which were very reasonable.
Description of Work: Inspected fireplace, sealed chimney clean out door to prevent entry from pests. Suspected wasps coming in from this point.

I wasn't home when the dumpster was delivered, but it was put right where I requested. It was delivered and hauled away on the dates I requested with no problems. I have used this service twice in recent months. Second dumpster had a lot of rust in the bottom and there were concerns whether it would hold a full load, but it was hauled away with no debris left behind. The price is definitely a lot better than other providers. I will definitely use them again.
