When I bought my house the inspector said that he does not do Chimneys and that I would have to do…read morethat separate. He suggested a chimney cleaner in Des Moines. I called them and asked if they could come out and take a look. They informed me that they were too busy to come out and take a look and that they probably could sometime in February. So I looked around on the internet and found Top Notch. I'm glad I did. I have had a lot of service people come to my house for repairs and such and they all seem to fly through the work and are wanting to get tot he next job. I felt that he wanted to do the job to a "T" and make sure everything was in great, not good, great working order. I really appreciated that. He also spent the time to show me the parts and how to operate my fireplace. Thomas went above and beyond anything I thought was possible for a chimney inspection and cleaning. He even made the firebox look brand new by painting the inside and trim.

Tom was fantastic. Our chase cover was old and leaking. He told us we would need a new one…read morefabricated. While we waited he patched the old one for us as a temporary fix (this was a HUGE help as we had a rainstorm but the water stayed out). About a week later Tom called about the cover being in and he came out the next day and installed it. Looks good plus he gave me a lifetime guarantee on the cover and labor. We did not get multiple bids, so I am not sure how his pricing compares but the communication, timeliness, punctuality and overall chimney knowledge was greatly appreciated. I will absolutely call Top Notch in the future.

Im forever grateful for Sean. He went out if his way in below 20 weather to check the exterior area…read moreholding the piping to our woodburning fireplace. He insisted on checking it out even though we had already agreed it was better to come back on a warmer day for our cleaning and inspection and Im so glad he did bc he recognized a huge issue caused by the previous owners of our home doing the installation of our fireplace without any knowlegde of how to safely do so. He even took photos and explained exactly what the issues were. Though he couldnt help us with the steps we needed to take next he was extremely knowledgeable and told me what we needed to have done next to make it safe for our family. Even prior to the appointment, over the phone he was upfront about cost and assured me nothing would be done without my knowing exactly how much I would be paying. Which I find extremely rare for any business. Ill be referring anyone and everyone to him. Thank you!!!!!'

Top-notch service! Two pleasant young men showed up as scheduled (early, even - how often does that…read morehappen?) and got right to work. They we careful to keep the area around the fireplace clean, and they did an excellent job. They were less expensive than the service we used from Des Moines last year, and I believe the work they did was just as good, if not better. Mr. Sweeps will be back again to service our chimney!

We had a very pleasant experience with BAM. They revised our quote several times to fit our needs…read more Also split up the job as I needed them to do half of it first due to personal reasons. They were very understanding and talked me through the whole process. On the day of the job, they called me and told me what they would be completing. They called me back later when they had an issue (one with my house, not an issue they created) they did have to enter my home, and they left it very clean! I couldn't have asked for anything else from this group of guys, we got every single question answered from start to finish. They explained it in terms I understood and have called me every single time I needed it. I would recommend them to absolutely anyone! Also, a plus is the quote was very reasonable compared to others we had received!
