Maine Yankee Chimney Services

Maine Yankee Chimney Services is a chimney business, and Yancy is the name customers use for the person who comes out. A 2026 customer whose wood stove was having issues said Yancy was there within two hours to clean the chimney, in 15 degree weather. A 2025 customer said Yancey re-lined their chimney and sealed the bricks against moisture, and that another local company with a big overhead had given an estimate for more than double. A 2025 customer who owns a heating company in West Bath said Yancey came the same day, found a dangerous issue inside a chimney, and had it lined safely the next day so a new furnace could be fired. A 2025 customer running a three-story antique inn said Yancy traveled over 90 minutes, sealed their chimney and inspected two more. A 2025 customer said he gave a quote on a leaking chimney, came back when a custom-order cover came in, and the chimney no longer leaks. A 2022 customer said Yancy re-mortared the chimney top, capped it with a steel top, sealed the bricks and cleaned the chimney, on his own schedule. A 2022 customer who had a small chimney fire said Yancy was on site within 30 minutes and cleaned out creosote built up on a ledge inside the base of the chimney. A 2024 customer said they were charged for services not rendered and refused a refund, and that a registered letter, sheriff-served paperwork and a Better Business Bureau complaint went unanswered. A 2022 customer said they waited 5 weeks for an appointment and nobody showed. A 2022 customer said half the money was wanted upfront and no one showed up to do the work. A 2021 customer said Yancy did not show for a scheduled chimney cleaning and could not be reached. A 2023 customer said they never heard back.
