12/19/23 - Fire-Safe Chimney Sweeps G.T. Clift Inc. MHIC #65416 - DO NOT TRUST OR USE THIS COMPANY…read more Do Not Trust Fire-Safe Chimney Sweeps G.T. Clift Inc. MHIC# 65416 nor its owner Gary Clift. Fire-Safe Chimney Sweeps, G.T. Clift Inc. is wholly dishonest, does not complete the work, will not return to correct their incomplete work, and blocks your phone number(s) when you attempt to work with the owner (Gary Clift) to receive a full refund or complete the service. First Warning Sign - Will not accept Credit Cards for services. With a Credit Card, you can dispute the Charges. Fire-Safe is then required to either complete the services or have the Credit Card Company refund your payment. In my case, I am out $475 (Check). I contracted with Fire-Safe to clean my chimney on 12/7/23, only to have the smoke back up into the house an hour after they left the home. I called Fire-Safe (Gary) immediately (12/7/23), Gary stated he would call back that afternoon, but there was no call Back as of 12/18/23. I attempted to call Fire-Safe on 12/18/23, to find my phone number Blocked by Fire-Safe. Second Warning Sign - When you call the Owner 'Gary' they Block your phone number on all their lines. Blocking the call is evidenced by the call going directly to voice Mail on the first ring. Clearly, there is no expectation of a 'Return Client'. When you call from a phone number Fire-Safe has not blocked, they answer immediately or quickly return the call. Yes, this is real and occurred on 12/18/23. Gary returned a call from my work phone within one minute of calling. Gary said he would call me back the following day (12/19/23) however, Fire-Safe has now blocked my work phone and will not return the call. Third Warning Sign - I spoke to Gary on 12/18/2023, he lied to me claiming Maryland Law prohibits Chimney Sweeps from going on a roof to clean the Chimney Cap. To verify Gary's assertion of a Law or Regulation against servicing the Chimney Cap at the roof end of a Chimney, I contacted the Maryland Department of Labor (MD-DOL) that regulates Maryland Chimney Sweep Contractors to ask if this was a Maryland law or regulation? The MD-DOL Employee stated that the Chimney Sweep was not being honest, that there is no such law or regulation, and to stay away. Sadly, this advice is too late for me. If you are reading this, it is not too late for you and your wallet. As of 12/19/23, there has been no response or contact from Gary Clift or Fire-Safe, and my 2-phone numbers remain Blocked. I will call from a new phone number to inform Gary and Fire-Safe of the Maryland Home Improvement Commission Complaint, the BBB Complaint, and Social Media Reviews we are posting in hopes others will not experience our loss of $475, an incomplete job, and how Fire-Safe has rendered our wood stove unusable until I pay a reputable Chimney Sweep to properly complete the work.

He was thorough, professional, w great attention to detail, communicative, and went the extra mile to make sure it worked perfectly. He also explained to me how to work it. Last time I had a repair company come it was OK but not great. John Golden, did an excellent job. You can trust him to get it right. I had to wait a month to get in but it was worth it. I have used my gas fireplace, almost every day since it's been cold. There is no burning smell. It's very clean. It's very quiet. The flame level is perfect, and it's keeping the room warm.

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.

And even though I told them they ordered the wrong model number, they insisted they were right and guess what? The stove they showed up with was in fact the wrong model number. I was thankful to be done with them after finally finishing the install, but the poor install of my new stove proved to cause some fraying wires. They also deeply scratched my floors and the tech's idea of helping to repair was to give me a wood colored marker. Please run from this company. I have had to call twice to get a copy of my invoice and records and still they haven't sent it. They charge way too much money for how terrible of an experience it has been.
