In April 2026, I hired Chimney Chap to clean and inspect my fireplace and oil boiler. Following the inspection, I was presented with a proposal totaling approximately $5,000 for recommended repairs.
The guys are great! Scott the owner is very responsive and called me each step of the way to update me on the progress. The chimney cap looks great as well. If only the other service businesses on the South Shore were this responsive.
from the start, the office staff and work crew were always helpful and courtous. The crew came on time or maybe earlier, and was in and out in less than an hour to build a crown and place a metal cap on my furnace chimney.
The Chimney Chap technician, REMOVED, is very knowledgeable and experienced in the pellet stove business. He works very efficiently and takes great care in protecting the area around the stove.
