A-Z Chimney Sweeps & Repairs Inc.

A-Z Chimney is the kind of company homeowners call for chimney cleaning, inspections, liner work and repairs, with offerings that also include masonry restoration and waterproofing. Its website describes a veteran-owned operation serving the North Shore and Merrimack Valley from Haverhill and says the company has more than 50 years of experience, while a BBB listing identifies a Danvers address and Dan Webster Sr. as owner; those background details are self-reported or directory-listed rather than independently established. The written reviews are mostly older but often specific. In 2023, customers described prompt pellet-stove flue cleaning and thorough, informative work, and a 2021 reviewer described two chimney rebuilds and cap installations after one chimney was crumbling and another was pulling away from the house. A 2025 Angi reviewer said A-Z had done quality work on a chimney later damaged by blasting and stood by that work. The broader Angi and HomeAdvisor listings show 4.6 stars from 75 ratings, with 85% five-star ratings. There is a serious recent issue to resolve before booking. An April 2026 Angi reviewer alleged that a used stainless flex liner was billed as new and said the liner had been cut into three pieces. That is one customer's allegation, but it is specific and recent; ask for a written description of the proposed liner, whether it is new, and how materials and warranty are documented. Also confirm the company's Massachusetts HIC license: the state registry lists license 202769 as expired as of September 14, 2026. A-Z may suit homeowners seeking chimney sweeping, inspection, liner, cap or repair work, especially when a masonry or stove-related issue needs attention. Before signing, verify the current license status, scope, material condition and warranty in writing, and get the exact price for the work.
