Peter came to check and let us know the actual situation for our chimney. He arrived at the agreed upon time and told us the chimney was clean and in perfect condition to use. Charged very reasonable fee and told us to be careful about the scammers. Great experience for us! Let me share my tenants' report about the scammers. "At the request of the owner of the home we lease, I reached out to A1 Chimney to inspect and clean two fireplaces In our rental and one fireplace in the owners home in anticipation of the season. A1 had solid reviews from the BBB site and so I scheduled them to come for Friday the 14th. Sean arrived and suggested he would take interior pictures of the respective flus to inspect their fitness for fires. It took him less than 10 minutes to assess that neither flu was up to code and that without extensive work (some $5400) by their company, the chimneys could not be cleaned or used. Additionally, he suggested that the flu connected to the furnace was leaking carbon monoxide into the home at very small levels (he described it like a straw with holes in it) whenever we ran the furnace. He insisted for our safety we should turn the heat off (in November) and leave the home until the flu could be addressed with a new stainless steel liner at a cost of $4200. At one point his exact words were "You could die if you stay here and use that furnace." He provided three reports all of which suggested the flues were not at code and that until the owner scheduled the work, he could do nothing further. Two hours later, he called my phone to tell me that he had not meant to suggest we needed to leave the home and that we were not in immediate danger. However, by that time, we had alerted the landlord to the issue causing all kinds of commotion on a late Friday evening. We called an HVAC company recommended by Angies list who came over immediately to review his findings. Their assessment was that there was no need for the scare tactic and that we were not in imminent danger. He suggested we call our oil company to inspect the furnace to confirm his findings. There are five adults living in the house we are leasing and the stress and worry brought on by Seans analysis caused unnecessary f fear and panic. His suggestion, that we could die if we stayed in the home was a flat out lie as was confirmed as such by the additional HVAC company that came out that night and again by another chimeny inspection company that landlord hired to review A1's finding!" read more

All American chimney has been cleaning my two chimneys for ten years. Pete is honest, punctual and reliable. He arrives on time , he no longer does masonry work but will alert you to any flue issues. He is paid always after the cleaning is completed. There is a bogus review posted which my guts says is a spurned girlfriend. A neighbor also has been using his services the last four years. I always book in the Spring cause his calendar is full in the fall . Obvious this negative review has not hurt his reputation. read more

We called All American Chimney Sweeps for a second opinion on work another contractor we checked with told us we needed to have done prior to using both of our fireplaces. The previous contractor told us we needed new liners in both flues, one had masonry that was cracked throughout needing repair, both chimneys needed to be re-pointed, and both needed new caps. The quote was for thousands of dollars in repair work. Pete from All American Chimney Sweeps came, looked at both chimneys and reported that no work was needed, not even cleaning. He gave us a written report backing it up. All American Chimney Sweeps saved us thousands in bogus charges for work that was not needed to be done. THANK YOU All American Chimney Sweeps for your HONEST assessment! read more

this man steals money. will accept your down payment and then block you, or comes out and pretends to poke around the roof before saying he's done. DO NOT TRUST THIS MAN IN YOUR HOME, DO NOT GIVE HIM YOUR MONEY. read more

Wow! I was looking for Pete's phone number. He's been cleaning the wood-stove every year for the last decade. He's top notch. Highly recommend. read more

Pete Smith is TOP NOTCH. Disregard the trash talk on the web that you may see. ALL-AMERICAN CHIMNEY SWEEPS is OPEN FOR BUSINESS, and his CORRECT telephone # is 860.526.4252. Pete was here at my home in Old Saybrook just 2 days ago ... AS PROMISED. He was here ON TIME, and replaced my chimney cap for practically NOTHING. I refused to pay him his ask. It would not have covered his GAS and his TIME, much less the price of the darned cap itself! Pete's EX-girlfriend has managed to do some web damage to Pete, including changing his business to CLOSED on a few websites, and CHANGING HIS BUSINESS PHONE NUMBER. Again, his ACCURATE phone number is (860) 526-4252. If you are unsure about Pete's business, PLEASE, just go visit the Better Business Bureau website; one of the FEW sites that this crazy woman was NOT able to compromise, and tarnish with lies. I hope she had a nice time at the Police Barracks yesterday, Wednesday, 3/16/16. read more
