After looking at several fireplace services we went with Ashbusters. I highly recommend them. They did a full inspection of our gas fireplace and cleaned everything including the very smoky and dirty glass. Looks like new plus we know we are safe from gas leaks etc. The 2 technicians worked efficiently and did a great job. I really liked that the price was quoted up front and they did the job on the first visit, unlike others who come in, take a look and then schedule another appt to maybe fix anything. Value was good...well worth it! Highly recommend! read more

They repaired our flashing on two chimneys that were leaking. Replaced caps with caps that throw water away from the chimney and flashing . Also replaced a lot of stones that had come off. I was impressed with the professional attitudes. From the office personnel, the sales staff, Jason, and both installers worked to provide the best repair possible. Cleaned up well. Would recommend this company highly, read more

John / Ash Busters is a great company. They were professional, cleaned up the mess and did a great job putting in an insulated stainless steel flue. Works great and easy to clean. I would recommend the products and services they provide... read more

I just got totally ripped off by Ashbusters! The technicians were here for a total of 6 minutes to seal off my fireplace and I was charged $500.00!! read more

Ashbuster charged me to come light the pilot light, that went out in a few hours and I couldn't get to re-light. They would not come back out without charging me again to do a diagnostic. I would not recommend working with them. They are a rip off! read more

Even after a miscommunication Ash Busters did a nice job. Seems very reliable and respectable. Would recommend their service.

Josh and Quentin went the extra mile in cleaning our chimney today. A tall ladder, the right tools, and dedication took care of some long term creosote buildup that reduced airflow in our wood burning fireplace. We keep using Ashbusters year after year and gladly let them put a sign in our yard to tell our neighbors. read more

Thank you Jason! He was very helpful and checked out my fireplace in a timely manner and efficiently. Jason Provided honest feedback. Definitely will recommend their services. read more

Ashbusters Chimney Service - Chimney Sweeps Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

I had a great experience with Ashbusters! Wonderful Customer service and delightful support from Tara! The tech that worked with us, Brandon, was super knowledgeable, provided excellent communication before and during our visit, and was very thorough to educate us on the details of our ventless fireplace in our condo of which he worked and serviced. A++ I was very impressed with him and Ashbusters. I know this was a small job, but Brandon was very considerate of taking care of our hardwood floors by laying down a drop cloth and vacuuming up his work area when he was finished. I am very satisfied and would highly recommend this company! read more

If there was away to give them less the a 1 star I would. We bought the house knowing the chimney leaked after 6 years these so called experts could get to stop leaking. Every tech that came out tried to belittle us. finally all it took was a trip a home center and a good sealer and the chimney hasn't leaked in over a year. read more

This company is a total scam... I paid them $4.000 to fix my stone Chimney they said had leaks... they fixed nothing I have never been able to use my fireplace because they did nothing! The owner is a liar and makes excuses for all their shady business practices! Notice his reply to anyone who had a problem... all excuses... everyone needs to report them to the better business bureau! read more

The owner sent his best team back out and the issue is resolved to my satisfaction. Good as new again. read more

See all

Ashbusters was just ok. They cleaned our chimney ok but as always found some horrible issue that they wanted to fix for $2500. Someone else came and said it wasn't necessary so we didn't do it. Plus, when it came to pay he asked if we were paying by credit or check. I was open to either so I just said credit, he had me sign the credit slip on his phone and said his phone was acting up and couldn't send me a copy of the bill and would do it when he got to the office. When I got it, there was a $10 credit card 'convenience fee'. He never mentioned the fee so we called the office and they said too bad, they couldn't reverse it. The manager was supposed to send us a check 'in a few days' to reimburse us but surprise surprise, we never received it. Will never use them again. read more

Ashbusters came out quickly when we had issues with our gas fireplace. Unlike others in the area, they did not charge a service call fee. Within minutes, the tech had diagnosed the issue (a simple loose wire) and helped loosen our stuck gas valve. Thanks to him, we now have a lovely fire for our Christmas celebrations! And, he didn't even charge us. Just wonderful customer service. We will be using again should we have further issues or need cleaning! Thanks, Ashbusters! read more

Our technician, Jason, was very thorough. He spent hours, almost six , in cleaning, inspecting, replacing and painting the refractory panels. He was very professional snd cleaned up after the service was completed. We felt their prices were fair. read more

I've just tried to schedule an appointment to get a chimney quote (they will not provide a free quote, the minimum price was $249), all of the other companies I've checked with will provide a free quote. I do not recommend these folks! read more

I am a realtor and often times after a home inspection my sellers need someone to fix/service gas logs. In this case we had a direct vent gas system and the gas valve was not working. Matt (so glad he was the tech) came out, evaluated the issue and ordered a gas valve. The repair wasn't cheap but the alternative was to replace the whole system. It wasn't as easy as taking the old out and putting new in but Matt stayed after it and never gave up until it was working. Always best to get 2 opinions on the fireplace repairs since some companies are incentivized to over-sell their services. If you're selling your home you may want to carve out the fireplace and say it is offered, "as-is" then you won't run into any repair/replacement issues. read more

Nice try from Mark S. My flooring experts (two,) and a relative - ALL who had all witnessed the PRISTINE floors before your workman confirmed your hatchet job. You didn't tape down the floor covering and brought pebbles in from the drive way and rubbed them into the floors all live long day, then denied it. A reputable company had to redo the work you started finding a great omission in a component of the work AS WELL AS FLAMMABLE material used in your incomplete job. Your company service was excellent PRIOR to signing on the dotted line, and not just dismal, but abusive when you botched the job. Go for INTEGRITY and QUALITY with CHIMNEY MASONRY OUTFITTERS and don't waste your time with Asssssbusters. read more

We have used Ashbusters for over 20 years and I can't say enough good things about them. Mark, the owner, has always gone the extra mile to make sure everything is done to the highest standards. Last year, we had some significant work done to the fireplace and chimney in our nearly 120-year-old house. Apparently, the product that was used to fill some gaps in the chimney didn't work as well as it should have. And while it is not a fire hazard yet, down the road, it could be problematic. Our technician, Chad, told me about it right away, providing a detailed report and taking extensive photos. A second technician, Eric, came by today to do the repair work. Both were professional, courteous, and thorough. And, fortunately, the work was completely covered by the company's warranty. I feel confident that Ashbusters does the best job possible and if there is ever an issue, they stand by their work 100 percent. What more can you ask? read more

Absolutely horrible customer service. I have been trying to get someone to come out for almost a month now to service our chimneys. They told me about their service plan, and since it would save about 50% of the price they quoted, I agreed to sign up. Well, trying to sign up to save money and get someone scheduled to come out has been an absolute headache. I have never had so much difficulty trying to pay someone money to get service. It's been beyond ridiculous. I am done trying to work with their office am currently exploring reviews on Yelp and Nextdoor for another Chimney Service company - preferably one that doesn't cause this much aggravation. Save yourself the headache and look elsewhere. read more

My chimney cap blew off and they saw it on the roof and didn't replace it. My inspection was expensive. They left the chimney cap off trying to charge a very large amount of money to be forced to replace the cap. POOR PRACTICE read more

I bought a house with a busted up chimney. I don't know if Phoebe Cates Dad ruined Christmas coming through this one, but it's beat up. So, I've called several chimney repair / cleaning companies to examine said chimney. The last thing I want is cracks big enough to grow Gremlins. These guys are pros. They showed up on time, talked me through the work necessary, and quoted me a fair price. If you're considering having work done to your chimney, you should certainly consider Ashbusters. read more

Wow....I was super anxious about calling this place because the Yelp review are super dicey. But they sure don't have a lot of competition in Nashville for cleaning chimneys (is there anyone else??). I had put a couple posts up asking on Facebook forums if anyone had other suggestions but nearly everyone kept saying Ashbusters, so I figured I'd go in with a buyer beware attitude. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised with their online booking service which allowed me to pick a couple times that might work and have someone call me back. They called nearly immediately and I was able to get someone in the next morning (yay for having a sick kid?). There were two guys who called before they came and arrived at the start of the two hour time window they had given me when they booked the appointment. The guys were clean, courteous and the whole deal took 40 minutes and cost $209 (probably about $50 more than it was worth, but its done so....). They also clearly told me the price so it's not like there were any surprises. Happily, no one tried to sell me anything extra, rob me...I don't know whatever the other low ratings came from. I'd absolutely use them again. read more

Chad and Jackson were the best! Worked through talk of the issues that a job like this could throw at them, and did it professionally and without a hitch. I would recommend to anyone needing professional and competent work! No fuss, no mess! read more

Ashbusters were the second chimney service I contacted. The first (a company from Florida) came in at a low bid. However, after the thorough camera inspection and explanation from Tim, of Ashbusters Chimney Service, we felt more confident and assured of the needed service. We do not know when the chimney was last used, but it was not in the best of shape. After the two days of repairs and the photo review, we are looking forward to our first, safe fireplace. Tim and Tommy were professional and prompt. We appreciate their chimney repair and masonry work. Ashbusters is on my A-list for recommendation for service rendered. read more

I was calling around looking for someone to clean the chimneys in the house I just bought. I called 5 different companies in town, and all 5 quoted me at least 6 weeks waiting time. I guess chimney sweeping is more popular than I originally thought. That's fine, and not the reason for my 2-star review. I called 5 different companies, with 5 different phone numbers, but I only spoke to two different people! Yes, 3 of the companies listed here on Yelp all share the same receptionist, and the same (rather shockingly high) rates for chimney sweeping. High enough that I'm considering changing careers. So I call 3 different phone numbers, and get the same person each time. She did a good job of using the correct company name when she answered the phone each time, so I guess I should give them some credit there. I don't know if this is a scam or what, but something is no bueno with this scenario. read more

Ashbusters was great and the technician gave us lots of honest advice and didn't charge us for things we didn't really need. He also called after he left to give us some more tips. I only wish they could've come sooner (they were booked 6 weeks out in the winter). read more

Allan and Matt were actually working on a neighbors house when I asked them about their info so I could make an appointment to service my gas fireplace. Instead, they asked what the problem was and after they were completed with my neighbors home, they came over and helped me with my gas fireplace. They took 10 mins and got it running again and answered every question I had as I haven't had gas fireplaces before. They went above and beyond even without having an appointment. I would definitely recommend Ashbusters to anyone, especially these 2 guys. Thanks again!! read more

Had leaks around the chimney and had them come out to give me a quote, Bob showed me pictures of the areas where the flashing around the chimney was leaking and where there were gaps around the chimney cap. The quote for the new cap and labor to correct the flashing around the chimney was fair, and a couple of weeks later, Mike and another tech (forgot his name) came out and in the wind and cold striped the siding off the chimney down to the wood and the shingles around the chimney and did an excellent job of waterproofing around the base and redirecting water away, they put the siding and roof shingles back on and a brand new chimney cap and the work looks excellent, these guys were very professional, easy to talk with and cleaned up everything before they left. I've used Ashbusters before and will use them again!! read more

Our gas fireplace exploded and it was very scary. We called Ashbusters and they sent a man over and he told us he would order a new glass and new stuff for the fireplace since all the old stuff exploded into a million pieces. We were frustrated because due to covid it took forEVER for the parts to come in. Every time we had an appointment we had to cancel it because the parts were not in. Finally! They came in and Jeremy came and was so detailed. He checked our fireplace many times and made sure it was perfect. We so appreciate the detail and now we have a warm beautiful fireplace. It was worth the wait with Ashbusters. We will use them every year for our yearly check service and cleaning of the glass and will be glad we did. Thank you Jeremy for your detail and kindness and thanks Ashbusters for getting what I needed... read more

The young man Pagie was very nice and knew his job. He showed me cracks in a three year old chimney. i didn't even know that was there.He made sure he put on booties before he enter my home. I would ask for Paige for my tech anytime!I referred him to my friend across the street and to my cousin. Thank you Pagie. read more

We moved into this house three years ago and every fall, I've meant to do something about our chimney. The fireplace hadn't been used in years. After reading glowing reviews of Ashbusters in my city's Facebook group, I decided to give them a try. I'm so glad I did! The online booking service was down at the time, but they offer plenty of ways to make an appointment, including live chat. They're booked WEEKS out, so make sure you plan ahead! Brandon showed up at the designated time and was friendly, fast, and so helpful. Turned out, we needed new logs (they were installed in 1995!) and he just happened to have a set on the truck. So we went from having no fireplace at 1pm to having a perfectly working fireplace at 3pm! I highly recommend Ashbusters! read more

I was very impressed with Ashbusters, as sometimes when you have servicemen come out to your house they talk to you like you're dumb and just aren't the most friendly people in the world. My servicemen, Josh and Rusty, got here right on time to clean my dryer vent. They uncorked a giant clog and now my dryer is running so much more efficiently. They also trimmed down the tube that connects the dryer to the floor because it was too long. I would definitely use them again in the future, maybe next time to get my chimney in working order. read more

We've used Ashbusters a few times now to clean our chimney over the years. They've always done a great job. The last time we did it was April 2019, the Tech was Kameron who recommended we replace the top of our framed stack as it was holding water and was concerned about water penetration. He provided a quote after cleaning the chimney and told me to let him know when we were ready to complete the work. Fast forward to October 2019 and when we reached out and they made the appointment at our convenience, Kameron and one other Tech came out and replaced the chimney top with a seamed galvanized top that will no longer hold water saving us from big problems in the future. They even honored the price we were quoted in April without question. They were timely, professional, and did a great job for us. We would fully recommend Ashbusters to anyone! Thank you guys for such great service and workmanship! Thomas & Angela Stoquert M'boro read more

We bought an older home a few years ago and have several issues with our fireplace and chimney. Ashbusters has been out to our house twice and has been very courteous and offered us fair estimates and explanations of services both times. We will be using them for all of our chimney needs! read more

Great company! Crew was very friendly and got the job done in a reasonable amount of time. Would definitely hire again.

I used another company last year to clean my chimney and right away when they entered my home I knew they didn't know what they were doing. They never went on my roof, the man shoddy equipment and left a mess around the fireplace. When it came time to fix a crack in my fireplace, I wanted to use someone I could trust. After asking around I called Ashbusters. They came out and were friendly, helpful and professional. I couldn't reccomend Ashbusters enough and they will be back out soon to clean my chimney so this time I know it will be done right. read more

Had them out again to find the leak what a joke. It was excuse after another why the chimney leaked tried to blame it on me yet for having to big of a chimney Two techs came out this time they water tested it said they found the leak.They could not fix it because the chimney was wet.Let the materials with me to do the job.They should have come back the next day instead I had to do it still leaks. read more

We hired Ashbusters to design and build a complete overhaul of our existing gas fireplace and mantle. We hired them to convert it to a wood burning Regency insert. They installed a new mantle, placed rock around the fireplace itself, and install a new hearth shelf. The salesman and the technicians were very friendly, professional, and respected my home. The final product is a focal point in our house and everyone compliments us on how beautiful our fireplace is. I am confident in their techncial expertise and will use them in the future to clean, inspect, and maintain my fireplace. I give them three stars because they missed a couple significant details and cut a couple corners in the design. For example, I supplied the wood mantle and asked Ashbusters what length I should be cut to. It was a bit short and the field technician had to make some modifications during the installation for the look to flow. It looks good, but could of been great. When they completed the work, the hearth shelf was loose and the mortar had begun to crack just a couple weeks after installation. When I expressed a concern and asked for it to be repaired, I was told that my concerns were a characteristic of the design. If I wanted it fixed, there would be a significant change. Eventually they did make it right and it is definitely robust and solid now. During that process, the discussions I had with them made me feel as though I should of known it was a weak design and the shelf would not of been sturdy rather than my expectation that they are the experts and I was relying on them and their technical expertise to provide a great looking solid fireplace. My advice would be hire these guys, but be sure to ask a lot of basic questions during the purchase process and bounce them off a professional designer. read more

The technicians were extremely courteous and knowledgeable. They arrived on time and were very helpful in explaining the process. Will use again! read more
