"I cannot say enough good things about the folks at Masters Chimney. Mark and Jeff were terrific to work with and worked with us to get our fireplace inspections and repairs done in a timely fashion to accommodate the sale of our house. Their team was hard-working and efficient and made sure the repairs went smoothly. I highly recommend the folks at Masters Chimney - they are great!"

"Chimney experts was very professional in both scheduling and the job. Al was very thorough to not only look at the chimney, but also to stay with me until we had fully built a fire and had it burning long enough to run a full test of the appliance. Would highly suggest for inspection and installation- they know the business well."

"I was contacted the same day I submitted my inquiry and had a scheduled appointment with in 24 hours. Finest Chimney contacted me 25 minutes before they arrived and they were exactly on time. Cleaning took about 20 minutes and they were very thorough and professional. They even gave me some feed back about future roof/chimney repairs. I will definitely call Finest Chimney Sweep for our future needs."

"I really liked this company. The quality of their work was first rate. I really appreciated their expertise and professionalism. The folks who did the work were extremely courteous, informative, and very neat considering working in fireplaces and chimneys is not the cleanest job. Their pricing was fair and competitive. As much as I would have liked to give them 5 stars all around, we had a communication disconnect. Although they ultimately dealt with it in a highly satisfactory manner, in the process it caused much consternation at a time that was overall quite stressful for us. We were in the process of selling our home, which sold almost immediately resulting in a move-out schedule far more compressed than we had anticipated. Repair of the chimney and fireplaces was the major contingency on the sales contract. After an extensive and thorough inspection, their estimate for returning them to working order was $4,100. I relayed this to my realtor who felt that the scope of work could be reduced and still meet the contingency. I discussed this with American Chimney Sweeps, and they gave me a revised quote that was about half the original. I made a point of explaining to them that, were we staying in the home, we would proceed with the full scope of work, but at this point we wanted to do only the minimum necessary to satisfy the contingency, i.e., "Inspect and clean chimney and fireplaces and return to working order." With this understanding, we scheduled the work. Upon completion the technician wrote on the receipt that the fireplaces were unsafe and constituted a fire hazard absent the completion of the full scope of work as specified in the original quote. Clearly there was a serious miscommunication between the technical and the management people at American Chimney Sweeps. In my attempts to resolve this I spent more time speaking to their answering machine than to company personnel. The balance of the work was finally scheduled and completed on a timely basis. Again, the quality of the work was excellent. They apologized profusely and gave us a discount for the inconvenience. We prefer and like to support small businesses like this one, which happens to be woman-owned. Were we staying in Northern Virginia, we wouldn't hesitate to use them again and highly recommend them. No company is perfect. Mistakes and miscommunication occur. The difference is in how they deal with them. American Chimney Sweeps resolved this quite satisfactorily and did redeem themselves."

Chimney Inspection questions, answered by experts

Skipping the installation of a drip edge or gutter apron can lead to significant water damage. Without this component, water is more likely to seep under roofing materials or leak behind gutters, damaging the fascia, soffits, siding, and even the interior of your home, such as the attic. Over time, this moisture can cause rot, mold, and deterioration. In colder climates, a missing drip edge also increases the risk of ice dams, which can lead to expensive repairs. A drip edge is an essential part of a roof's drainage system, and some local building codes may even require its installation to protect the home from water damage.

At least once a year—or more in areas with heavy foliage or frequent storms.

As long as your solar panels are properly installed without damage to your roof, they will not shorten the roof’s life span. Solar panels can act as a cover or barrier to your roof and help block external elements, such as debris, heat, and UV rays. Reduced exposure to the weather can extend your roof’s life.

Yes, many providers include video copies for your records. Confirm with your contractor.

A roof pitch that’s too shallow won’t shed runoff as quickly, so you have an increased risk of water intrusion through the seams between your roofing materials. In colder climates, snow and ice will accumulate more easily on your roof, which can add enough weight to cause roof collapse and structural damage to your home.
