Last 6 months: 58 reviews, 1 negative. ## The honest read A1 Chimney does chimney inspections, sweeps and repairs, and it shows 4.9 stars across 1,756 Google ratings. A recent customer said Moses completed a detailed inspection and clean of their chimneys, clearly communicated the results and remediation steps, and gave advice without upselling. One recent customer said Sean went to the basement to check whether the chimney served the furnace, photographed the chimney with a drone and delivered a detailed report, and said the other companies missed that a new liner was needed. A recent reviewer wrote that a small section of shingles had fallen off the roof; after other companies said the job was too small, Ben came the next day and had the shingles back up. A 2025 customer said loose bricks around the top of their chimney were repaired. A recent customer gave two stars, saying a salesman quoted $6,600 for a new liner, flashing repair, a new concrete cap and repointing, and that the men who did the work said they did maybe two lines of mortar while the customer was still asked to pay $1,200 for repointing. A recent reviewer said the two men who swept the chimney did a good job cleaning but quoted $700 to seal cracked firebricks; that customer bought new firebricks for $40 at a local fireplace store and put them in. A recent customer said fine soot residue was left on the living room floor and rug after an inspection and cleaning. A recent reviewer said they canceled a job after getting an estimate for half the price elsewhere, and that the company was fighting them about returning the deposit. A 2026 customer said a quote for two days of work ended with technicians on site for three hours total.
