Chimney Goat is a Roslindale/Boston chimney and masonry company that homeowners call for sweeping, inspections, repairs, relining, caps, crowns, flashing, waterproofing, fireplace work, and masonry. The company says it was established in 1997 and serves communities across Greater Boston, and it identifies itself as licensed and insured with a CSIA Certified Chimney Sweep. Recent Google reviewers repeatedly describe clear explanations, careful cleanup, and practical chimney work. Homeowners mention rebuilding damaged chimneys, repairing flashing and leaks, replacing liners, cleaning and inspecting flues, and improving fireplace performance. One recent customer described a flue crack found during a sweep and inspection; another praised sealed vacuums and before-and-after photos during a cleaning. The written reviews also point to a crew that communicates throughout a job. Customers describe technicians arriving on time, explaining the problem before work begins, and completing repairs efficiently. A 2025 reviewer described a full rebuild after a chimney had fallen into serious disrepair, including an on-time arrival, an explanation of the work, and a satisfactory result. Before booking, confirm the exact scope of masonry or chimney work, the materials and repair plan, and the price for the inspection or proposed repair. The company’s license statement is self-reported on its website, so ask for the registration details that apply to your project. Chimney Goat looks best suited to homeowners who need a focused chimney inspection, maintenance visit, or masonry repair and want a crew that explains the work as it goes.
I had several questions about replacing the chimney liner, and the installers were happy to explain things. They worked steadily and paid attention to the details. The completed installation looked clean and well organized.
We noticed smoke taking longer to clear from the fireplace and wanted to get the chimney checked. The technician inspected it carefully and removed the buildup. The service made a noticeable difference.
Our fireplace wasn't venting the way it used to, so we arranged for a chimney sweep. The technician took a close look at the chimney and cleared out the buildup. The fireplace is drawing better now.
We wanted to prepare the fireplace for colder evenings, so chimney cleaning was on our list. The technicians were prompt and professional without making the appointment feel rushed. They completed the work neatly and cleaned up afterward.
We noticed some buildup in the chimney and decided to have it professionally cleaned. The technicians showed up on time and got right to work. They were careful inside the house, and everything looked clean when they finished.
