Matt of Top Hat Chimney Sweeps came out to clean and inspect both my fireplace and woodstove. He…read morewas careful and began by spreading a drop cloth over the hearthstone. So thorough was he, that it was a two-hour visit in all. He inspected both facilities from inside the house and on top of the roof. He spent a fair amount of time evaluating how best to remedy the mantel, which is not affixed. He took a tour of my crawl space and inspected the boiler vent. He took a courtesy peek at a second fireplace in the house (though that was unscheduled). He even surveyed the property to determine the best place to store a cord of firewood. At all times, he was professional, informative and polite. He is quite knowledgable and articulates his findings in layman's terms, with an intent to have his customer fully understand the scope of the recommended work. He is extremely safety-minded and presented me with photographic proof of the damage he found. He provided me with a printed evaluation, on the spot, of clear and existing fire hazards in this house, and a comprehensive estimate for necessary repairs. When I am able to make such repairs, I will certainly call upon this company to handle the job, based upon Matt's overall presentation. He conveyed a sense of confidence in his capability regarding his field. The fee for the visit was less than expected, as it was decided not to do the cleanings at this time. For the time he spent and the detail he relayed, the cost was well worth it compared with the potential catastrophe of a house fire.

Brian McCormack communicated with me right away to set up a appointment. He showed up on time, was very professional, did a complete evaluation and cleaning.

The man did not remove firebricks when cleaning the stove, the flue pipe came loose when doing chimney. I asked them to check the pipe, since it has been a problem before. He said the pipe was fine. Angelo charged me 30 % more than than the previous year, and no senior discount. Two weeks later, I can't close the draft, it was clogged with ashes; then I saw flames coming out of the flue pipe where the pipes are connected. So, the man did not check it as I asked. Angelo's service seems to be going downhill.
