What our customers are saying

				Leaving a review on behalf of my older parents. They’ve never had me write anything about a service so this is saying a lot. They worked with a guy named Nick F. and they told me that he was very kind, respectful, professional, and answered all the questions they had. Also that the services were very reasonable on price and done in a timely manner.

				We just had the pleasure of the owner of Evergreen Chimney Sweep company coming out to clean and inspect our chimney. What a wonderful experience with a company that treated us great, was very honest and respectful and explained everything thoroughly. We highly recommend Evergreen Chimney Sweep to everyone! You won't find anyone better and we definitely will keep using this company for our wood stove needs.

				We purchased our home last year and had not yet had our chimney cleaned or inspected. So, we called Evergreen. Luke came to our home, inspected our chimney and fireplaces, and determined we didn’t even need to do a cleaning! Luke was kind, professional, and honest. He answered all of my questions and thoroughly explained everything he found during the inspection. We would highly recommend Evergreen!

				It's rare to find a company that is so customer-focused, but after trying to reach several chimney sweep companies, Evergreen was the only one to respond the next day with a professional and detailed email, including a possible next appointment date and time, which I accepted. That day came today, and I cannot tell you how refreshing it is to have professional and personable technicians doing the work. They did a fantastic job, explained the results, and cleaned up before they left. From first contact to finished service, this company is top-notch; one of the best experiences, especially post-pandemic. Highly recommend this company -- and if you have a woodstove or fireplace, you should get your chimney checked regularly; I was a volunteer firefighter and dealt with too many chimney fires, which is why I get my checked.

				Tyler and his crew exceeded my expectations in every way. They were professional, knowledgeable, prompt, clean, and friendly. They repointed the masonry and rebuilt the cap around my ancient chimney, and they also installed a new rain guard, damper, and smoke shield. It all looks and functions like new now—and for a very competitive price. Thanks guys!

				This was one of the best experiences I have had with any business. Tyler and his team initially cleaned our chimney and did a very thorough job and offered great recommendations for future burning. Months later, I asked them to install a Ventis wood stove. They did it professionally, with great attention to detail in our home and also carefully to insure minimal disruption. Then afterward, Tyler continued to walk through the inspection process and added materials to assist us. I can't speak highly enough. I will use them for all wood heating needs in the future.

				I can’t say enough good things about these guys! Tyler came to our house, and walked me through all of the process and cleaned out our gas fireplace! Mind you we haven’t used it since we bought the house. And we had no idea our little guy put a battery in it so he cleaned up the entire thing and got it all running and looking really nice! Will be my go to company for all things chimney and fireplace from here on out! And even better that they are local and a small business!

				2 units - wood stove and vintage circular fireplace in our shop apartment. 5 Star/Professional service. Asked them for a quote and when they came out to give us one they ended up doing the job. Luke and Sergio worked continuously while they took the time to explain what they were doing and why. I have a fair knowledge of fires/stoves/fireplaces and they were great. All was done (in winter weather) at a very fair priceRecommend highly.

				Incredible! THIS is what all home service providers should strive for. Easy to make the appointment, kind and personable technicians that are respectful of your home, that show up on time or call to let you know when they'll be there if they're going to be late.They were quick, efficient, kept everything super clean which I really appreciated. And they took the time to really explain to us (first time fireplace owners) how everything works and how to use it. We've had 3 excellent fires in the 4 days since they came and worked their magic and it feels so good to feel like I know what I'm doing thanks to these guys.And great job being able to take payment in person, as a customer I really love that feature. Being sent an invoice afterwords and having to call a place to pay is so annoying. Loved being able to just give the guy my card and watch him swipe it in front of me. Will definitely be using these guys again.

				Excellent customer service! The owners communicated very well by email, even on a weekend.On 11/24 we had Cergio here to work on our downstairs chimney. We were very pleased with his service. He was super friendly and gave excellent advice on how to improve performance of this particular chimney. He did not leave a mess and was very thorough. I highly recommend Evergreen Chimney Sweep!

				Had Tyler from Evergreen Chimney out to service our fireplace. He did a full chimney inspection and chimney sweep. He was prompt and professional, as well as incredibly knowledgeable and helpful when answering questions we had about maintenance and potentially adding a chimney cap. We are glad to have found Evergreen Chimney and will be using them in the years to come.

				I had a stove installed and couldn’t be happier with this company, the technicians (Tyler and Cergio) were knowledgeable and professional. They laid drop cloths down to protect my carpet, played cheery holiday music and explained how to use the stove safely and properly and recommended wood to burn, when to service chimney stack etc. They arrived for appointment at the exact time quoted, hauled the trash away and were friendly. I was charged what I was quoted, no surprise charges. Excellent company and service, I will be hiring them for any future services!

				Super Happy 😊 with Tyler and Sergio. They discovered a cap that was off that was causing our flu not to have a strong up draft - which makes it hard to start a fire. Tyler also said "open a nearby outside door" to create similar air pressure inside the house - that will help with updraft". Sergio seems very trustworthy too - fast, hard worker. Thanks guys!

				Luke was very friendly, thorough and knowledgeable! Never having lived in a house with a working fireplace before, it was nice to have him explain the inspection to me and offer his advice on possible future needs so we can keep everything in tip-top shape. I'll look forward to doing business with Evergreen in the future and will recommend them to anyone needing a chimney sweep!

				Tyler came to inspect my furnace venting, chimney, and dryer vent. He was timely, professional, polite, clean and knowledgeable. I felt like I was a person and not just a customer on his schedule. His estimate was fair and he will always be the one to work on my chimney and dryer. Highly recommend.

				So on the 31st of October I had their services come to the home I just purchased. The men who came gave me such valuable information on being a first time homeowner, but they were very friendly. I can't wait to have them come back and help me out again.

				After the first place I called for chimney inspection failed to show up I called Evergreen Chimney Sweep based on the reviews. Should have called them in the first place.Luke is friendly, honest, and professional. He noticed some issues with some flashing and I didn't hesitate to have them come back to address it.Definitely would recommend this local business!
