Chimney Sweep reviews in Birmingham, Alabama

after having some trouble finding good repair and cleaning services, i was happy to find finest birmingham chimney cleaning. brian made scheduling simple and was flexible with my appointment, even calling ahead before arriving. the chimney inspection was thorough, and one of the team members took the time to explain general fireplace maintenance and care. they were quick, knew their stuff, and got the job done right. i’m very pleased with the service and would recommend them to anyone needing a reliable chimney sweep.

finest birmingham chimney cleaning did a fantastic job for us! brian came out first to check our chimney, clean it, and give us a quote on some fireplace options. he was super friendly, not pushy at all, and really listened to what we wanted. when we had questions, he gave honest advice that helped us decide what would work best. melvin came along and was very polite while handling a lot of the cleaning, so i could talk with brian about our choices. when it was time for the work, everyone was professional and explained what they were doing whenever we asked. we had some masonry repair done and got two new fireplace inserts put in. brian stayed for most of the installation and made sure everything went smoothly. other team members started the brick repair and made quick progress, always being friendly and respectful during the job. another worker finished up by sealing everything and double-checking the final installation. he seemed like a genuinely good person and was easy to talk to. you can tell everyone here enjoys what they do and takes pride in their work. even though the price was a bit higher than some other places, the results were definitely worth it. we’ll be using them again and telling our friends to call them for chimney cleaning and repairs.

I’ve had my chimney cleaned by others in the past, but I was truly impressed with the level of care and detail from Finest Birmingham Chimney Cleaning. Brian took before and after photos of my fireplace, showing just how thorough their work was. Everything was left spotless and tidy, and the whole process was handled with real professionalism. I’d gladly have them back anytime and won’t go anywhere else for chimney cleaning in Birmingham.

I’ve used Finest Birmingham Chimney Cleaning twice, and each time, they impressed me with their honesty and skill. The first time, I almost spent a lot on a new chimney liner because another company told me I needed one. I decided to call here for a second opinion, and Brian came out the very next day. He checked everything and assured me the liner was still in good shape. All I needed was a proper chimney sweep, which saved me a lot of money. It’s rare these days to find a business that cares more about customer trust than just making a quick sale. On my most recent visit, I needed a chimney cap installed because squirrels kept getting in. Melvin handled the installation with real expertise. Afterward, I discovered two squirrels had gotten trapped in the chimney. I called right away, and they sent someone out that same day. The team was great at keeping me updated and took care of the situation with real professionalism. Watching them carefully remove the squirrels and release them safely was really impressive. This company truly stands out for their honesty and excellent service.

I highly recommend this team to anyone needing chimney cleaning or repair—they really know what they're doing and make the whole process easy and stress-free.

our 60+ year old chimney in birmingham needed a lot of internal and external repairs to get it working safely again. we reached out to a few chimney sweep companies, and this team made the whole process easy and much less stressful. melvin, the tech who came out, was excellent—he explained every step from start to finish and gave helpful tips on how to keep our chimney in good shape, like getting it serviced once a year. he was professional and really thoughtful the whole time he was in our home. the folks in the office were also very clear about the costs and fees for the big repairs. now we have them come out regularly for chimney cleanings and would recommend them to anyone looking for chimney sweep services in birmingham.

We are getting a new fireplace installed and started by visiting the showroom in Birmingham to check out all the different fireplace styles and options.

finest birmingham chimney cleaning did a fantastic job for us! we just moved into a new home in birmingham and wanted to make sure our fireplace and chimney were safe to use. we were happy they could schedule us for a cleaning the same week. brian, the technician, was really friendly and explained each step of the process, making sure i understood everything about the chimney sweep service. when it came time to pay, we both forgot about the discount card, but brian called back right after leaving and fixed it without any hassle. we’ll definitely call them again for our chimney needs!

Excellent chimney sweep service and very professional. Johnathan was happy to answer all my questions and even went the extra mile by cleaning and repairing a second stove that wasn’t originally scheduled. I highly recommend this team to anyone with a wood or pellet stove needing maintenance or repair. Great job and thanks again for your help.

Our chimney, which included two flues and two fireplaces, required a large and intricate repair job. Though the work took a bit longer than anticipated, Eric and Johnathan remained professional and courteous throughout. They ensured the job was completed neatly and cleanly, and the final bill did not exceed the initial estimate. Although the chimney sweep service might not be the most inexpensive in Birmingham, the exceptional quality of their work and commitment to excellence justified the cost. Additionally, when we decided that the chimney fan installed by a previous service was no longer necessary, we asked the same team to come back with an electrician to remove it. They arrived within the agreed-upon timeframe and carried out the task efficiently and cleanly.

i’ve been using chimney sweep services for a long time. my wood burning fireplace insert is my main heat source when it's cold. eric installed a chimney liner insert and sealed up the top rim for me, and he comes every year to do the chimney cleaning. just had my latest cleaning done and, even though prices are going up everywhere, the cost hasn’t changed much. eric is always friendly and gives helpful advice about making my fireplace work better—burning less wood and getting more heat, plus reducing creosote. he even recommended a good place to get fireplace parts when i needed them. over the years, he’s helped me save a lot on heating costs. most important, i feel safe knowing my chimney is in good shape and there’s less risk of fire for me and my dogs.

i had johnathan do a level 2 chimney inspection at my new place in birmingham. even though he explained there was some installation damage that needed fixing before i could safely use the fireplace, he was very professional and sincere about it. he really knows his stuff and had all the right tools for the job. edgar & sons chimney cleaning is definitely reliable for inspections!

An exceptional trio arrived at my residence in Birmingham on one of the chilliest days of the winter. They tackled all their chimney sweep tasks without hesitation, despite the freezing outdoor conditions, and didn't utter a single complaint. Johnathan, Eric, and their colleague were not only professional and efficient, but they were also a pleasure to have in my home. Their expertise in chimney inspection was evident, and their kindness in explaining the findings of the inspection was truly appreciated. They provided multiple solutions without any high-pressure sales tactics for me to choose any of them. For any fireplace related needs, from inspections to repairs or installations, I wholeheartedly endorse this fantastic team of chimney sweeps.

Eric and Johnathan were very professional and thorough with their chimney inspection and gave helpful recommendations. They even took the time to answer my young child's questions and let her feel involved. I feel confident my chimney is in good hands with Edgar & Sons Chimney Cleaning!

Eric arrived promptly and showed great professionalism. He patiently explained the intricacies of my fireplace and offered some useful advice on maintaining cleanliness and the correct burning materials. Swift as a sleigh ride, Eric was on the rooftop of my Birmingham home, starting his chimney sweep work. The service was clean and efficient, leaving me highly satisfied. I will certainly call upon their services again in the future. Eric, do you have a sweet tooth for cookies and milk?

No show! Called the number to schedule an estimate from noon to 3pm. Didn’t receive any communication during the entire scheduled day. Called again, with 30 mins left in the timeframe, I was told the tech would call back with eta. Still no show, no call, called for the second time at 3pm and told them they had 15 mins to contact me with estimated arrival time. Of course no call, no show!! Don’t waste your time with Edgar & Sons, there are plenty other chimney service companies that respect your business AND your time!

Eric and Johnathan from the chimney sweep team were able to visit my Birmingham home in just a few days. Despite some initial confusion about the service I had requested, they remained patient, understanding, and helpful. They provided me with comprehensive information about the next steps for my fireplace maintenance, reassuring me that everything was functioning as it should. Their kindness and expertise were truly appreciated.

I had a great experience with a chimney sweep service recently. One morning, just before heading to work, I noticed some exhaust fumes in my basement, which made me think my chimney might be clogged. With my pregnant wife at home, I knew I needed help fast. I called a few places, but only one was able to assist me promptly. When I reached out, I spoke to a friendly representative who assured me they would send someone out quickly to check my chimney and the backdrafting water heater. A technician named Eric called me back shortly, saying he could be at my home within two hours, and he arrived even faster than that! Eric got right to work and quickly diagnosed the problem. I could tell he was skilled, as he explained everything about the issue in a way that made sense. He was very patient with my worried wife, answering all her questions without any rush. The fee for his labor was quite fair considering the time he spent at our home. His work was tidy, and he even replaced a corroded exhaust pipe connecting the water heater to the chimney at no extra charge. After completing the job, Eric vacuumed the basement and cleaned the water heater too. While working on the chimney, he noticed some needed repairs. He took pictures, explained what needed fixing, and provided a reasonable quote for the repairs. For that work, he fit me into his schedule quickly and came back with his assistant. They took care to protect my front porch and when they finished, they cleaned up so well that it looked better than before they arrived! Throughout the process, Eric kept me updated, was honest about all costs, and was incredibly friendly. He may be young, but his work ethic and skill are impressive. I now consider him a friend and would highly recommend this chimney sweep service to anyone needing chimney repairs. They truly are top-notch!
