When we asked if he wouldn't mind cleaning our dryer vents out after cleaning out the wood burning fireplaces, he did it. His work inside was so clean that I couldn't believe it! No dusty mess or footprints anywhere! Jayson shot excellent videos of our older roof, pointing out bad spots and the areas that he could repair for us which really relieved our worries. Knowing how important keeping both our dryer vents and fireplace/chimneys clean for our buildings safety, we plan to have him come next year!

They then CHARGED me a 2nd time, although not a word was said about a charge when I called. I wrote a bad review explaining the situation. Someone from the company then called me, accused me of lying, and started yelling. I hung up. Fireplace is AGAIN NOT WORKING. TERRIBLE company. TERRIBLE customer service. I don't want ANYTHING to do with them.​ I would NEVER recommend their services to ANYONE. STEER CLEAR OF THEM. WORST EXPERIENCE WITH A COMPANY EVER.

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++

We had them come out to do an inspection and sweep ahead of the winter. Russell took the time to…read moreexplain the type of fireplace/chimney we had and how to maintain it.

Great price and excellent communication/customer service.

Karl Mattes did an excellent job with our chimney sweep. Not only was the tech that came out…read morepunctual and professional but he was incredibly helpful. This winter was my first time lighting a fireplace in our townhome as we wanted to surprise the kids on Christmas Eve. The tech not only did the sweep, but he thoroughly explained everything what I needed and the process to start the fire such as purchasing kindling, when to open the chute, etc... I took down all of his notes and we pulled it off without a hitch (and no unwanted smoke). It's rare these days to find employees who take pride in their work so I highly recommend Karl Mattes for your chimney sweep.

Everyone is always so friendly, from the lady who answers the phone and makes the appointment to the service techs who come out to our home. They always arrive within the time window they give when making the appointment. Usually, it's on the earlier end of the time frame given. Today was no different. Right on time and right to work. They wear shoe covers to protect the floor and carpets from dirt. They lay down cloth tarps at the entrance of the home and around the fireplace to keep everything clean. The techs are always super friendly, polite and informative. They do a fantastic job! We'll always used this company for our chimney cleaning. I definitely would recommend them.

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.

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!

I had used American Chimney in the past, so I called them to have my chimney inspected and cleaned…read more At the beginning of the call, a recording said my call might be shared with a third party. I specifically asked the receptionist whether they used contractors or another company to perform the work. She told me, "No, they are all our employees." When the appointment day arrived, however, a company I had never heard of--ChimCREW--showed up. I checked their reviews before allowing them to proceed, and to be fair, ChimCREW did a good job cleaning the chimney. My concern is with how American Chimney represented the appointment. I specifically asked whether another company would be involved and was told no. I believe customers should know who will actually be coming to their home before agreeing to service. I was also quoted $1,335 for a chimney crown repair, which seemed quite high, so I declined the repair and am getting another estimate. Based on my experience, I recommend asking exactly who will perform the work and getting a second estimate before approving significant repairs.
