# Capital Chimney Services LLC **Trade:** Chimney Services · **Address:** 289 South St, Concord, NH 03301 · **Phone:** (603) 731-8405 · **Website:** http://capitalchimneynh.com/ · **Languages:** English **Rating: 3.9/5** (medium confidence) — from 9 reviews across 4 sources. 89% of sentiment-scored reviews read net-positive. Last 6 months: 1 reviews, 0 negative. ## The honest read Capital Chimney Services is a Concord, New Hampshire outfit built around one name customers keep repeating: Rick. He runs this family-owned company, and across a run of five-star Google reviews the same qualities come up again and again — straightforward pricing, quick turnarounds, and a habit of walking people through each step of a wood stove insert install or a chimney repair. Several reviewers specifically called out the cost. A 2025 review said his pricing beat every other contractor they contacted, and a customer whose 1890s home needed custom parts for a wood stove insert noted he could have charged far more than he did. Cleaning jobs get similar marks — a 2022 review praised the cleanup after a chimney sweep, and another said the cleaning cost less than competing quotes. When a fireplace insert or a repointing job comes up, customers describe him taking time to explain the work rather than just doing it and leaving. One thing worth asking about before booking: a 2022 review described being told a quote would follow an inspection, then getting no callback or returned calls. It's the one rough patch in an otherwise consistent run of praise, and worth pinning down a timeline for any estimate up front. The business isn't BBB accredited, and BBB says it doesn't have enough information to rate it — not unusual for a small local shop, but a sign it's mostly reviewed on Google rather than across several platforms. Family-run and Concord-based, it's a solid call for a wood stove install, an insert, or masonry work on the chimney itself, especially if a fair price and someone who explains the job matter as much as speed. **Strengths:** - Fair pricing — reviewers call it the best quote they got - Knowledgeable service — walks customers through each step - Thorough cleanup — chimney sweeps leave the site clean **Concerns:** - Slow follow-up — one 2022 review reported an unreturned quote ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Praised repeatedly for fair, below-market pricing on cleanings, inserts and repairs _(confidence: high)_ - [Google Reviews](https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m8!14m7!1m6!2m5!1sCi9DQUlRQUNvZENodHljRjlvT2tOd1JEVlBWMGxmYzJaQ1QwRnZVMEZNYW1wamQyYxAB!2m1!1s0x0:0xd448b8b6a70e7ef1!3m1!1s2@1:CAIQACodChtycF9oOkNwRDVPV0lfc2ZCT0FvU0FMampjd2c%7C%7C?hl=en) — “5★ Capital Chimney Services is professional, dependable, and good for their word.
