After 3 years of being told by 4 different supposed experts that we needed to break the wall to address the wiring issues with our fireplace , Ron came in and did a full assessment and fixed our fireplace within less than an hour. His expertise saved us a tremendous amount of money. In addition, he walked me through safety protocol to keep in mind & long term usage! He was detail oriented in all aspects! I'm extremely happy to have fireplace back up & running after such a significant amount of time.

I like that he also explained what really needed fixing and what didn't, and gave possible solutions at different price points. Feels like a really honest guy. Thanks, Craig!

I contacted Poppins Cleaners Fireplace & Chimney Repair after seeing positive recommendations on…read moreYelp and scheduled Caesar to assess a fireplace issue at my rental property--the remote wasn't turning the unit on. Caesar called me with the following diagnosis: "Good morning. I was able to program the remote control, and it's working fine, but that's not the problem. The pilot light ignites, but it has two sensors. The first one ignites and keeps the pilot light lit. The second sensor, when it heats up, sends a signal to the valve to open the burner. The valve is sending a good signal, but the servo motor is burned out. So the problem is the electronic gas valve that controls everything. I can do this job for $800. This includes replacing the valve with a new one, installing it, and reprogramming it, since everything is electronic." From the moment he delivered this diagnosis, he was incessant about doing the repair immediately and pushed hard for me to authorize the $800 job on the spot. I told him clearly that I would be getting a second opinion and likely going through my home warranty. That's where things took a very concerning turn. After he left, my tenant called to tell me that the remote control for the fireplace was suddenly missing. Caesar had taken it with him without any permission. I had to call him and demand that he return it to the property. Then, things got even worse. My tenant called again to say he noticed that some fireplace connections appeared to be left intentionally disconnected after Caesar's visit--presumably to make it seem like major repairs were needed. My tenant simply reconnected the wiring, and the fireplace worked perfectly with the remote right away. No $800 repair, no burned-out valve, no issue with sensors or motors--just unplugged wires. This experience was not only unprofessional, but also deeply untrustworthy. Manipulating a system to justify unnecessary repair costs and removing a remote without permission is completely unacceptable. I strongly advise anyone considering Poppins Cleaners Fireplace & Chimney Repair to beware. Based on my experience, their practices are pushy, dishonest, and potentially deceptive. Save yourself the headache and look elsewhere for a reputable and ethical company.

Samual was supposed to be on site between Noon and 2pm. He called to say was running a little late and would be about an hour and 15 minutes. He finally showed at 4:30. He did not lay tarps, used a non filtering shop vac that layered our kitchen and living room in soot, nearly shattered a glass tabletop with the rods connected to the brush, although he was quite pleasant while doing all this. I posted a review on Thumbtack about Brushers Chimneys service and it wasn't long after that they called me. The woman asked if I would at least change my 2 star rating to 4 stars. I explained that I do honest reviews of both good and bad service. She then said that Brushers would refund our money in the form of a check and now would I change my review. I explained that she was actually trying to purchase my integrity which won't ever happen, although, once I received the check I would modify my review to reflect this exchange. That refund was promised in November 2025. This is 12/31/25 and as yet no check has arrived. This should be a warning about those who will attempt to buy you with bait. I will do my best to post my experience with as many media outlets as I can. I posted to Thumbtack and Google. I suggest anyone considering Brushers to read the NEGATIVE reviews. There are plenty of them. I read what their service offered on Thumbtack. Nothing of the sort happened in our home. I HIGHLY recommend STAYING AWAY from this company that won't clean your chimney as can be seen by my photos posted on Thumbtack but, they will clean out your wallet and not honor their word. This is an update: After making this post I was contacted by Brushers Chimney. After some discussion I was assured that a refund would be forthcoming. The refund arrived on 1/8/2026. I submitted it to my bank 1/9/2026. Verified check cleared 1/10/2026. On 1/9/2026 I received a call from Brushers as they noted I had deposited the refund which was for the amount I paid for their service. There was no additional money added for my lost time and the inconvenience of the mess left behind although, they did offer to have someone come to clean up the mess. Naturally, my wife and I had pretty much tackled that job which I reiterated in earlier conversations. I had no intentions of waiting while soot covered everything in our living room and kitchen. I admit I was less than pleasant with the young lady when I received a call asking me to remove my reviews of them on the platforms I posted on. I'm at this time adjusting my review from 1 to 3 stars only because they finally sent the refund after multiple postings. I still do not recommend their services since I was informed that the individual that serviced us is, in fact, one of their trained employees and literally less than half of what is on the website of the service to be performed was actually done. Earlier I stated he was a subcontractor based on what he told me and the fact that he initially bumped the price $50 then lowered it after we spoke.

He was a little late but I didn't mind because I was free. He came to do a cleaning but he said I didn't need it and did an inspection instead which was less than what I expected to pay for the day. I had some minor repairs that needed to be done and he did them free of charge. I had another vendor try to tell me I had lots of repairs that needed to be done that was going to cost at between $500-1500. That vendor did not specialize in chimneys so I denied it. So thankful I did and thankful for Ted to be honest with what I needed. I highly recommend Barons!
