"$900 later my chimney still leaks and they refuse to come back. They applied Flash Seal to both chimneys and one still leaks. They did not make any suggestions for corrective action. Lori, the office contact person, was delighted to give me the news that they would not come back out regarding, in her words, "my situation." So instead, I asked for and received a quote to remove the chimney stack. The quote at $2,557 is ridiculously high for such a small chimney. No, I would not recommend. Yes, I agree with another customer who said they just want your money. Definitely stay away from this company. Ace Chimney Sweeps is not your friend no matter how they sign their correspondence. I wished I had read the negative reviews before hiring this company. I found that another unhappy customer had received the below response from the owner. The owner seems "totally" concerned with their own personal issues as they relate to the business instead of the customer. Plus the excuses, lack of accountability, and complete unprofessional response. Wow, just "totally" wow! "Rex I am so sorry over this experience. The technician Billy was let go for recently for unauthorized use/ driving our company van while drunk after work hours. He totally crashed his van into one of the other technicians vans so we are two vans down because of him. I'm not sure what demons popped up in his life he always got good reviews form clients. Something went wrong in him and now we are doing our best to clean up after him so to speak. I will follow up with my staff and get this corrected as i am just getting back from Ohio on a business trip. I will have one of our comfort advisers contact you and get this right for you. I am so sorry. Our area is very difficult to find good people because of the drugs and alcohol abuse that is rampant. We drug test and do back ground checks Billy slipped through the cracks, He was clean when we hired him. We are pressing charges against him for his actions against our company and maliciously damaging two of our vans.""

Chimney sweeping services FAQs
While it’s possible to sweep your own chimney, it’s usually not a good idea for two reasons. First, inexperienced DIYers are more likely to miss areas of the chimney, which still leaves the risk of house fire due to the remaining residue. Second, chimney sweeping seems like a simple process, but it’s highly dangerous. Soot and creosote are both carcinogenic and can cause breathing issues and lung damage. If you don’t take the same safety precautions that professionals do, you could be putting yourself at risk of serious bodily harm.
You should plan to ask your chimney sweeper questions about the cleaning process they intend to use, the project timeline, and more to get a sense of which professional is right for the job:
What is your process for cleaning chimneys?
How long will the process take?
Will you protect my floors from soot and debris?
Will you do a chimney inspection, too?
Do you have certification from the Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA) or the National Fire Institute (NFI)?
Will you need access to my roof?
The average cost for a professional chimney cleaning is around $250, but prices range from $130 to $400 or more, depending on a few factors. Some things that have an impact on your total include the size of your chimney, the number of chimneys cleaned, and how accessible the chimneys are.
In some cases, you don’t need to do anything to prepare for chimney sweeping, but professionals always appreciate leaving the area clean and easy to access. As such, it’s a good idea to move fireplace accessories like screens and fire tending tools out of the way, and lay down tarps of drop cloths around your fireplace opening to help keep your floors clean. Laying down a plastic sheet under those cloths or tarps is a good idea if your fireplace is surrounded by carpeting, just to add extra protection. Finally, secure any pets or children away from the work area.
The National Fire Prevention Agency (NFPA) recommends chimney sweeping once per year as a means of avoiding house fires and massive property damage. Over time, creosote and soot build up in your chimney from burning wood and a lack of ventilation. These compounds are both highly flammable, which means a build-up of them inside your chimney puts you at an increased risk of house fire. Chimney sweeping removes any residue and helps reduce the risk of property damage and personal injury from fire.
