    i had a great experience getting my chimney cleaned in richmond. another company tried to charge me for repairs i didn’t need and gave me a price way over my budget. mr chimney cleaning was honest, explained everything clearly, and the price made sense. kaleb, who came out to do the work, showed me before and after pictures of my fireplace and chimney, so i knew exactly what was done. i’ll be calling them again next time i need a sweep!

    We've been loyal customers of Mr Chimney Cleaning for a good number of years now, utilizing their services on multiple properties in Richmond. The team, including Kaleb, Ricky, and Carson, are all incredibly polite and exhibit a high level of professionalism. They are very efficient in scheduling our chimney sweeps, always finding a convenient time slot. If they ever get delayed due to a prior commitment, they have the courtesy to inform us in advance. Their pricing is quite fair and they perform a comprehensive job. Not to mention their unbeatable $99 chimney cleaning service! We would strongly recommend their services.

    Everything has been great! Mr Chimney Cleaning recently cleaned my chimney just before the holidays. The technician who came, Carson, was very polite and knowledgeable. He started by inspecting the top of the chimney and even provided me with pictures to highlight some concerns I had at the top, mainly some wood damage. He brought in a large vacuum cleaner, used a tarp to protect my home, and thoroughly vacuumed the fireplace area. Carson also pointed out a crack in the floor and the back of my chimney. I was aware of this crack but had been informed before that fixing it might cost over $300. Instead, Carson suggested sealing it for just $40. He mentioned that this would likely be a temporary fix but should last for several years since I don't use my fireplace often. Overall, Carson appeared honest and didn't push me to pay for unnecessary services I could handle myself, and he left my place spotless. The only thing I noticed is that the fireplace still smokes a bit more than I prefer, but I’m not sure why that is, and it might not be related to the chimney cleaning. It's worth mentioning that Mr Chimney Cleaning has asked some customers to share their experiences for compensation, but they don’t control whether those reviews are positive or negative. I understand that these reviews help businesses, and sometimes those of us with good experiences don’t take the time to share them.

    We had a fantastic experience with mr chimney cleaning. since we hadn't used our fireplace since moving in, we decided it was time for a full chimney sweep and inspection. ricky was super responsive and made scheduling really easy. on the day of the appointment, he kept me updated about when he would arrive and showed up right on time. he did a careful inspection first, explaining everything he saw, then set up all his equipment to make sure nothing got dusty or dirty in our living room. the chimney and fireplace were cleaned out quickly and thoroughly. ricky also spotted a couple of small cracks, which he repaired right away and told me how to keep an eye on them in the future. he was very friendly, professional, and explained things in a way that was easy to understand. overall, a great experience and we feel much safer using our fireplace now.

    We had our fireplace resurfaced and a new mantle installed after some damage to our home. The team did a great job, helping us choose the perfect stone to match our living room and arranging for a custom mantle. Kaleb and Carson, who handled the refinishing and installation, were very professional and paid close attention to detail. The final result looks fantastic, and we’re really pleased with how everything turned out. We're glad we chose them for our chimney and fireplace needs in Richmond.

    After moving into an older townhouse in Richmond, i started to get a little worried about the safety of my fireplace after using it for a few years. I kept thinking about all the fires i'd had and wanted to make sure my chimney was in good shape, so i began reading up on chimney sweep services. A lot of places online made me feel unsure since you hear stories about some companies trying to get you to pay for expensive repairs you might not even need. I finally decided to call Mr Chimney Cleaning for an inspection. Ricky and his co-worker showed up right on time and were really friendly. Even though i don’t know all the ins and outs of chimney cleaning, they explained everything in a way i could understand. Ricky checked out my chimney and told me it didn't need sweeping, which was a relief. He didn’t try to sell me on any repairs or new parts, just gave me honest advice. They also checked my dryer vent and found it was stuffed with old lint. Ricky showed me the vent was pretty worn out with a lot of small tears, so he replaced it for me. While he was there, i mentioned a garden hose that had gotten stuck to the faucet for ages. I had tried everything to get it loose, but nothing worked. Ricky gave it a shot and explained that sometimes the metal can fuse together over time. He carefully used a small saw and got the hose off without damaging the connection. All the work was done for the price we talked about ahead of time, and i wasn't even charged for the extra help with the hose. It’s rare to find someone who’s honest and goes the extra mile just to help out. i really appreciate the great service and would definitely recommend them if you need your chimney or dryer vent checked in Richmond.

He was very professional and made sure to keep our house clean while he worked. Carson was friendly and explained the whole process step by step, giving us useful tips on how to keep our stove and chimney running smoothly. We were really happy with the service!

    I've been wanting to share my experience for a while now. I recently had a problem with my pellet stove, and even though I didn’t buy it from this company, they still came out to help. The technicians, Kaleb and Carson, were very professional and courteous, carefully inspecting and troubleshooting my stove until they got it working again. I really appreciated how thorough and friendly they were. If you need chimney sweep or pellet stove repair services, I highly recommend this team.
