My interaction started off great with scheduling my appointment and eventually my initial…read moreinspection. The gentleman who came out was very responsive, nice to talk to, and cleaned up his mess. I was told I would be needing a drone inspection of the chimney though as it was not easily accessible. I then was given a time when someone would stop by and inspect my chimney via drone. The time came and went and there was no contact from CCS. I then reached out again and was told everything looked fine and there were no issues. I asked if there were any pictures of the chimney they could share. I was told no they didn't take any. I then went back and looked on my outdoor camera and noticed that the truck arrived at my house at the day in question but no one ever left the truck. No drone ever exited the truck. Nothing was actually done and 5 mins after the truck arrived, the truck left. I then pointed this out to the owner/operator and all communication stopped. I would stay away from this company before investing thousands of dollars with them as you obviously cannot trust what they say. Beware.

Robert did a great job filling cracks and building the parge (protective layer inside the fireplace) while both Russ and Robert completed outside work, replacing the crown, improving the flues and flue caps. As always, communication is top-notch and I would not hesitate to recommend Cinci Sweeps to anyone for inspections, cleaning and reconstruction. (Original review for November 2020): I would echo the other five-star reviews. I cannot say enough nice things. - Russ is a great communicator, taking the time to explain everything - The work is top-notch; our crown looks like new and the craftsmanship was fantastic - They called ahead, arrived on time (with shoes covered and wearing masks) and cleaned up everything when done - You can tell that they absolutely want to do the right thing and make the customer happy - I've already referred them to friends and family In short, Cinci Sweeps is one of the most professional and friendly companies with whom I've had the pleasure of working. I will definitely continue to use them in the future. A++

From my first call to BCC to get an estimate for the work to the final day when my beautiful, functional and safe rebuilt chimney was completed, every interaction with Best Cincinnati Chimney was outstanding. The office staff, the workmen and especially the company owner, Chuck Caine, answered all of my questions regarding the rebuild work cheerfully and on point. The cost ws reasonable. BCC's safety practices are top notch. The craftsmanship of the completed chimney is second to none which assures me that the chimney will be trouble-free for a long time to come. Without hesitation, I fully recommend Best Cincinnati Chimney for anyone's chimney needs. Steve S., Pleasant Ridge

Excellent. That's all I have to say about American Chimney…read more We recently purchased a historic home in East Row Newport, and it needs a little TLC in terms of masonry. Our main issue was a chimney that was leaking into our third floor bedroom. In asking around, the only company that we were told to call was AMERICAN CHIMNEY. I will say at first that I was a little put off because their assistant/receptionist does not answer the phone much, and they appear to prefer communicating with customers via email; however, now I am a believer. They are simply very busy, and email is the best way to properly respond to everyone. And these guys know their stuff. They do beautiful work. We had American Chimney come out to initially give us a quote on rebuilding our chimneys (we have four of them). They are not cheap, but you get what you pay for. This may sound dumb, but I keep going outside to stare at how great our chimney looks now. Because we live in a historic district, American Chimney mixes a special mortar that was used at the time that these house were built so that the new chimney matches the house. They took off every brick from our old chimney and relayed those same bricks with the new mortar, adding new chimney caps. Gorgeous, gorgeous work, and very pleasant folks who showed up to do the job (I think we had the owners son do our job...very sweet). If you need masonry work done, it's very important to have it done right. This is your home! Send these guys out to do the work...no job is too small. You will not regret it!

They cleaned my chimney, repaired a crack on the fireplace insert, vacuumed the inside of the fireplace and even wiped the glass clean. Tom put down a throw so that nothing got on my carpet and the throw was carefully folded up so not one speck of soot was in my house. They also repaired a plumbing boot on the roof and repaired some trim. This was also done carefully and quickly. I will definitely use them again because they did a great job but they also did a few extra things that I appreciated. I was bringing in the garbage can and CJ grabbed the other one and brought it in. They saw where I found the extra paint and put it away when they finished. Finally, one of dogs had taken some of the stuffing out of a toy and they picked it up as they were cleaning up from the fireplace work. I will definitely use them again!
