    We're so fortunate Ben from Midtown Chimney Sweeps inspected our fireplace…read more In a nut shell, our fireplace is not safe. We are not certified in chimney inspections. When Ben showed me with a flashlight current damage and multiple pictures, I couldn't believe how much deterioration there was. We had a chimney fire in the spring. We burn fire nearly everyday from October to May. We were given a bit of wood to burn in the winter. The fire happened when I started burning the free wood and we chalked it up to the wood. Wrong!!! I learned so much. Ben explained everything! He knows his stuff. He is definitely a professional in his field. Since we did have a fire, he wrote an extensive report for our insurance company. Very professionally written with lots of information and pictures. The work that needs to be done is extensive. Our unique problem is not something they can fix. Besides the inspection fee, they did not and can not gain any additional profit with this inspection. We are so glad we called Midtown Chimney Sweeps.

    Jon was on time, explained his qualifications, and completed the chimney cleaning quickly. He put…read moredown cloths to protect my carpet and cleaned up carefully when he was done. He also offered to check our dryer vent to see if it needed to be cleaned. They offer a discount if they do the dryer vent in the same visit, but he gave an honest evaluation and said it did not need to be done. Jon was friendly and professional.

    First off, "Jolene D" who posted here, is the wife of the owner. She also posted on the competitor…read moreand gave them a poor review. Not cool! He came out last fall, knew what he was talking about, gave me a rough estimate, then told me he needed to write it up to make it official. After not hearing back, I emailed Jolene a couple of times. She finally emailed this to me: "David said he cannot send you a bid as he cannot honestly give you a honest bid. He says call him in spring so that he can get up on roof so that he can give you a accurate bid." I copy and pasted this from the email. I called her and told her this is NOT what he just told me the other day! The verbal estimate he gave me included EVERYTHING that could possibly be done! I guess because I live in the historic district, and I told him I wanted him to do it on the spot, he figured he could squeeze more money out of me. Either way, they lied. I ended up using Midtown Sweeps out of Waterloo. The guy is honest, does great work, and the cost was half what David quoted me.

    I called three different chimney sweep companies for a rental unit I take care of. One never…read morereturned either of my calls. The other two both said they did the same thing, inspect the chimney for safety and if it's ok, clean it. DC Chimney charged $85 and the other charged $130, I scheduled with DC. They got me in within a week. Dave, the owner, came on time, did a thorough check and determined that is was not only safe, but clean. He just charged me $65 for the inspection and offered some free advice. I would definitely use them again.
