HVAC reviews across the US

We had a chimney inspection and cleaning for our new house. Oakenshield was friendly and through, and they were a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend using them.

Mark really hit a home run for me. I asked him out for a sweep, but he also checked my catalytic converter (it didn't need replacing) and he did a quick fix on my chimney pipe collar that I had forgotten to ask for. You don't find service that that often, and I truly appreciate it! Highly Recommended.

Mark showed precisely on time and was professional the entire time. He explained every issue he found in detail, left a detailed report, and gave recommendations on other local businesses to contact for needed repairs. I will definitely call them again for next year's cleaning.

Currently renting and it was the landlord's responsibility to clean the chimney's. In comes Oakenshield. The guy was awesome curtious and good humored. Took his shoes off at the front door, explained what he was going to do, what he was inspecting, how long it would take and how he was going to keep our house clean. Very important because my wife dusted the week before. In the time frame he specified, he was done and all tools put away. No dirt anywhere. Told us the status of our chimney's, explained proper operation, and suggested we add another CO detector for personal safety. I couldn't ask for more from a service company and I am excited to give them a review. Thanks again!

This service is fantastic. Mark arrived on time and ended up carrying out 48 gallons of ash from the chimney of my new-to-me house. He was professional, extremely knowledgeable, and an absolute pleasure to work with.

Honest company! I am very impressed with this service, call them if you need anything related to your chimney. I had another company come out to my place telling me I needed to replace my stove insert due to the auger not functioning. They quoted me a $4500 replacement. The gentleman that came out from Oakenshield was fantastic! He was able to fix our auger for free and saved us $4500!!! He was very informative and gave us honest answers to the many questions we had. I will always use Oakenshield.

After an unpleasant experience with Mr. Chimney (tried to sell me an entire woodstove when I only needed my baffle replaced), I had Mark with Oakenshield out to clean my woodstove and make sure I inserted my baffle properly. I also had him confirm that my woodstove did not need to be replaced. He said that it was in great condition. He was so very nice, and I finally felt like I was working with someone that honestly had best my best interest in mind. Not trying to squeeze out every possible dime. I highly recommend Oakenshield - great service from scheduling to their on time visit.

Mark came to our home to clean and inspect our wood stoves and was so professional, kind, and helpful! He was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions and is someone I would recommend to anyone needing any kind of chimney/stove cleaning and repair. We will definitely be return customers and will request Mark for as long as he is in the business! 😊

Mark arrived on time, left no mess, and spent an extra hour cleaning up 30 years worth of creosote in a house my wife and I just purchased. He charged the exact price quoted to us even after all the extra work. He left us a thorough report on the condition of our fireplace/chimney and recommendations on how to keep is maintained. I highly recommend using Oakenshield for all your chimney needs.

We called Oakenshield about getting the chimneys capped on our new to us 1904 home. They said they were booked out through the month but since it was a small job they would stop by when they were in the area. They came the next day and Mark was super nice and very professional. He even gave us some tips about other possible issues he had noticed while on the roof. I would definitely recommend them and will use them again if we need more chimney work done.

I called several services but Oakenshield as the only service that I answered. They we able to fit me in on cancelation they had. I was pleasantly surprise when contacted the day prior to confirm the appointment as well as the morning of. Mark arrived promptly and ready to work. He evaluated the pellet stove and got right to work, spent an extra amount time cleaning the stove as well as chimney and made sure all was in working order prior to leaving and supplying me with a detailed inspection report. I am very happy with the job and price, but most of the fact that there was no mess or sign that Oakensheild had been here. I would highly recommend the use of their service.

Mark was extremely professional and timely. Upon arrival, he introduced himself and provided his business card and credentials. He was quick to do the work, left no mess, and was thorough in his explanation of the results of his inspection and cleaning. I would highly recommend this business.

We purchased our home about a year ago and decided to have the chimney inspected as the house was built in 1985. I read some of the online reviews for Oakenshield and they were all very positive so I decided to contact them and they were able to get me scheduled within 2 weeks. Mark came out to inspected the chimney and within about 5 minutes informed us that the fireplace was unusable as the chimney flue had pulled apart and needed replacing. Not the news we were hoping for, however, Mark did not charge us for the inspection as he felt he had not really provided much of a service. I highly recommend Oakenshield Chimney Service for your chimney needs.

We made an apportionment to have Mark take a look at a problematic chimney. When he arrived, he was kind, thorough, listened to our concerns, and quickly diagnosed the issues. He provided multiple solutions, gave us advice to save money, and made recommendations to help us enjoy our fireplace more. What a wonderful experience! We will be doing business with Oakenshield again, and highly recommend them.

We had 2 chimneys cleanned and inspected and 2 spark protectors installed. The work done was incredibly thorough and reasonably priced. Mark was a true delight. He could not have been more kind or forthcoming. Happy to say I have found my chimney guy.

We highly recommend Oakenshield! Mark is friendly, punctual, professional, thorough, knowledgeable, and explained things to us very clearly. We will continue to use them for any chimney /fireplace needs.

Mark is an exceptional person! He takes the time he needs to educate you and answer all your questions. (When I was new to country living and tried starting a fire without knowing the proper techniques and filled our home with smoke....he came out to inspect and clean and walked me through it all!) He takes pride in his work and is extremely knowledgeable. I called several places in Spokane when I first started searching for a chimney sweep. I’d leave a message and not hear back for days, if at all. But I am always greeted by Tim when I call in and he is super pleasant as well. He got me on the cancellation list and they got me taken care of a month early. Super happy I found Oakenshield. I recommend them highly! Don’t waste your time calling around, stick with these guys. You won’t be disappointed!

I asked around on social media, neighborhood friends and, of course, Google. Over and over i was referred to this company. Although they can be booked out farther than you may like (if you are a last minute scheduler) they make every effort to get you in. Tim is a great communicator, down to earth and real. We scheduled (late) but got in just before the snow started. Mark showed up and I can't express how very respectful, courteous and knowledgeable he is. He was gracious and informative. No sales tactics at all, just clean, efficient work, photo evidence, suggestions, advice and kindness. He even knew our wood stove brand and date and on top of that the uniqueness of the brick our house is 85% built with. I offered him a seat when he came to show me the photos and he even declined because he said he was too dirty to do so. It is so rare to find people to care for your house as you would, honest and with exceptional integrity. I will never use someone other than Mark until he retires and then only someone he refers me to.
How they come in with a lower price beats me because their service is worth more than any others I contacted. Do not look anywhere ride lease, Oakenshield is definitely your chimney service.
*Semper Fi Mark. Thank you for your service. *

Oakenshield Chimney Services was recommended to me by a neighbor who had used them in the past. I am blown away by the service! I called Monday morning to schedule and they were here Tuesday morning. Mark was extremely friendly and knowledgeable! I asked a ton of questions and he was happy to answer each and every one of them. Great value for the services. I am extremely satisfied. Also, my dogs loved Mark.

These guys were amazing! They were honest, listened to my requests, went out of their way to get me on their waiting list and simply did an outstanding job! Both Mark and Timothy were great. They kept our house super clean and performed a great inspection. This is the team you want!

Mark is great! An honest, friendly, expert businessman who genuinely cares about his work. He left my house cleaner than it was before he got there!
