## The honest read

Google shows 5 stars from 1,237 ratings for this Lisbon stove and chimney company. A recent customer says Nathan and Josh swept two chimneys, cleaned and inspected both flues with no mess or dust, and explained the condition of the flues and the code requirements. A recent customer says the crew cleaned their pellet stove, flue pipe and gas dryer vent.

A recent customer says Austin and Chris installed a new Defiant stove at their home in New Hampshire and were on time. A recent customer says the company installed a woodstove and later returned for an inspection and cleaning. In a 2025 review, a customer said Fireside replaced two wood fireplaces with gas, along with new flues and caps. A recent customer says the technicians found a stove and chimney that had been installed dangerously wrong, with exhaust pipes upside down and the chimney not insulated where it passed through the attic, and backed each finding with photos.

In a 2025 review, a customer said Fireside replaced the combustion blower on a loud Harman XXV pellet stove and cleaned the flue and combustion pot. A recent customer says Dave came out on his day off to go through adjustments their house needed.

In a 2025 review, a customer who gave two stars said they missed the appointment, said they had serviced an Englander stove the office then said it does not service, and that a hose was later found sliced; that customer added an update that the company fixed the mistake and reimbursed them. In a 2026 Reddit comment on r/vermont, a commenter recommended Fireside Hearth and Leisure in Lisbon for great service. The company says on its website it has been in business 23 years.

**Strengths:**
- Chimney sweeps — a recent customer says two flues were cleaned without mess
- Stove installs — a recent customer says a Defiant stove went in on time
- Safety findings — a recent customer says faulty install problems were photographed

**Concerns:**
- Missed appointment — a 2025 customer was later reimbursed after a mistake
