We just bought a house and wanted to have our air ducts and dryer vent cleaned. The company we…read moreoriginally hired to do both was, unfortunately, unable to clean our dryer vent because it's on the roof, but they recommended McDowell's. They were quick to respond and quickly scheduled us to clean our dryer vent. They showed us before and after photos, and we're so glad we had this service done! Our house is only 10 years old, but it looked like the vent had never been cleaned, and it was caked with lint! We will certainly use McDowell's for our dryer vent again (and we would use them for our chimney if we had one)!

No room for expansion and retraction. I will keep you posted on their response when I call them today.

Very happy with them and how fast they corrected everything. Thank you very much for your quick response on handling this situation.

We're glad we found Tom do do our chimney work. We had an…read moreold chimney with a beat-up ceramic flue liner that needed a new liner, new damper, and some exterior work. We received several estimates from different companies for the work that needed to be done, and were most impressed with Tom's attitude and insight. He came in around the same price as the others, but was the only one to quote more thorough work instead of what seemed like a bunch of band-aids. As he worked on the chimney, it was clear to see how meticulous and focused he is with his craft. He treated it as if it was his own. I'm surprised this is the first review, as he's been in business since 1978 and seems booked solid. I know he has a bunch of A's on that "other paid website," so don't hesitate to hire Tom. He really knows what he's doing.

We recently experienced a chimney fire in our 1971 home shortly after moving in, which was…read moreincredibly stressful. We didn't realize the chimney had a large internal crack and would require a full replacement and relining. Chelsea's Chimney was fantastic from start to finish. The owner personally came out, inspected everything, and took the time to explain what was going on and reassure me that it could be fixed safely. That personal attention meant a lot during a pretty scary situation. After paying the deposit, they moved quickly, within a week we had an entirely new chimney system installed along with a new cap. The work included removing the old flue tiles and throat damper, installing a UL-listed stainless steel liner with a lifetime warranty, insulating the flue, parging the smoke chamber, and installing a new top tile and top-closing damper system. Everything was clearly explained as they worked, which I really appreciated. The total cost was $5,400, which felt very fair for the amount of work, quality, and peace of mind we received. The craftsmanship looks great, and we now feel confident using our fireplace safely. Highly recommend Chelsea's Chimney if you want knowledgeable professionals who stand by their work and keep you informed every step of the way.

When he came he cleaned the chimney and serviced the fire box for the Jotul woodburning insert. Then he serviced our Heat N Glo gas fireplace. After he left I noticed the gas fireplace was not operating by the remote switch as it had been previously. I had asked for two receipts, one for the woodburning fireplace insert and another for the gas fireplace, which was promised to come by email. After a few days I tried to call Simple Sweeps to get the receipts as promised, but there was no response to calls or texts. A few days later, a heat exchange pipe fell out of the chimney of the fireplace insert while putting a log on the fire. I hope that this unfavorable review gets their attention and they contact me to correct the problems and provide me with the receipts I am entitled to.

I would strongly recommend JNA Chimney services.
