Tim was responsive and incredibly skilled when he arrived with his team member. They were very organized, clean and managed to clean and fix two of our fireplaces and cap one other chimney. Tim also wears the coolest top hat and had some novel ideas to help us with our chimneys like swapping some pieces. Price was fair and we are thrilled with his service. He even showed us many tips for use. If you want to hire a real craftsman, local and responsible - go for California Chimney Sweep! read more

I needed a fireplace inspection so I reached out to this business three different ways- I called and left a voicemail, I filled out their form via their website and also reached out to them via Yelp. It's been two weeks and have not received a response. read more

Old homes develop old home issues. Our house is over 100 years old and like its owners it is a little creaky. I knew someone once who in response to hearing an older person described as looking great for their age say, "Yes, but on the inside everything is that number of years old." Great insight especially when it comes to our chimney. We had issues with the chimney cap and the flashing in addition to the more routine elements of cleaning the interior smoke conduit. California Chimney Sweep was fantastic! They made a prompt appointment and arrived on time. All of our conversations were pleasant and all of our questions were thoroughly and politely answered. The inspection revealed a number of issues that required attention. Potential sources of water intrusion were meticulously sealed. The area inside in front of the chimney was carefully draped to catch any debris and then a vacuum device was placed in the area. Nothing escaped into the room while the chimney was carefully cleaned. As the work was done they even noted an area around one of our windows adjacent to the exterior chimney that also could be a source water intrusion and suggested that we look into having that area sealed. We were so grateful for their helpful and careful approach to our issues. California Chimney Sweep went above and beyond expectations and did a fantastic job taking care of our chimney issues! read more

I contacted this company months ago, and they replied stating they do not accept requests on Yelp but could contact their office. I have called several times and get a busy signal. Finally, my call went through a couple of days ago, so I left a message. As of today, I have received no response. I should have read the negative reviews because that is what I experienced. I wanted to use this company to support a local business since I live in the area. However, I will contact a different company that wants my business. read more

This company was a lifesaver! Owner Vince and Crew do things right! I was getting quotes from other businesses trying to get me to replace my chimney when I needed repairs. One company told me I was going to spend $10k to replace my chimney for cracks without even seeing it. Vince @CA Chimney Sweeps asked me for some photos up front and responded within minutes of what he needed to do. The repairs were a great price, he showed up on time (he even fit me in the schedule due to me trying to sell my home) , and most of all he cares about the customer. He is a great guy that I had no problem trusting him with my home repairs and knew he would do the right thing. You just don't run across people like him! Everyone's out to bleed you dry and he is building customers for a lifetime. That is the way you do it! Thank you so much for your help! read more

Tim was an amazing person to work with. He met our needs with care and thoroughness. I hired him to inspect my father's Chimney, while I was away at my home in Utah, as I sought to help my father have his chimney inspected prior to a possible re-roof. Tim was very clear in steps he'd execute in inspection, was up front with potential costs and sent me photos of each step of his inspection. I had such peace working with he and his other staff I interacted with by phone. They earned my trust and I am confident my father's chimney is in good order. I will hire them again, in the future. Communication, professionalism, promptness and a fair price. I highly recommend them! read more

I made an appointment two weeks in advance and they followed-up a couple days before to confirm. Vince (Owner) and his assistant, Ian, showed-up on time and got two chimneys cleaned and replaced one of the rusted out spark arrestors within two hours. Both were friendly and extremely professional. They took care in moving furniture that was in the way and left everything very clean. Vince was a wealth of knowledge about chimneys and gave me some great tips for sizing, storing, and seasoning my own firewood. They accept Visa/Master Card, but prefer check or cash. I thought the price was very reasonable and would definitely use them again. read more

I would 100% recommend using this company the next time you need a chimney cleaning or any other type of chimney service or repair!! Tim and his younger assistant came to my house today to clean out our chimney and replace the sand/embers at the bottom. I cannot express enough how appreciative I am to Tim to taking the time to explain every tiny little thing to me and educate me on the ins and outs of using my fireplace! He was truly so kind and patient with me. They took about 30-40min to complete the cleaning and told me all my options if I wanted to upgrade certain things on my chimney, but even when I turned it down they were not pushy and just wanted to ensure I understood everything fully. I will never use anyone else, they gained a customer for life as far as I'm concerned! Thank you team for your amazing help today! read more

They are really the best out there. We called around and got quotes but they actually took the time to be honest with us about short term and long term needs. We met on a fair price and 30 days later it was complete. They were not the cheapest, but they were the ones we knew could do the job right. We had them work on the inside, Outside and top of the chimney and it came out better than expected. read more

I want to thank and send out a good review for Tim and his assistant. I have an older gas log fire place. It needed repairing. It would not light up at all. Tim made first visit to diagnose what the source of the problem was. And returned at a later date with the needed parts and repaired my gas log set. What I really liked about Tim was his willingness to repair older style gas log system. I liked how he found sources of hard to find parts. I am grateful for his help. Tim is very knowledgeable! read more
