Green Chimney Sweep

Green Chimney Sweep is a Somerville outfit people call for the once-a-year chimney tune-up — cleaning, inspection, cap work — before the fireplace gets its first fire of the season. All nine Google reviews on file are five stars, and the one with real texture describes exactly the kind of visit that builds that record: John came out on a Saturday morning for a routine cleaning, tracked down a weird smell to a minor blockage, cleared it, double-checked the work, and left the flue spotless — at a price the customer called fair. The rest of the reviews echo the same two beats without much elaboration: the crew is friendly, and the chimney comes out looking new. One customer credited the visit with feeling safer using the fireplace again; another singled out a cap-replacement job specifically. There isn't much to caution against here — no complaint sits in the record, and the company's own site lists cleaning, inspections, repairs, and cap installation/replacement as its full menu, serving towns from Somerville out toward Newton, Waltham, and Quincy. Worth confirming when you call: whether a given job is a straightforward cleaning or something closer to repair work, since the reviews on file lean toward the former.
