Received a very prompt response after signing up and the service was scheduled at a time convenient for me. Nathan called before arriving which was good since I had been delayed at work. He was very friendly and efficient, showing me the lint he had cleared from the vent and pipes. He did say he had never seen a vent pipe as long as the one I had which was routed through the attic of my garage. It made me wonder about the overall experience of Dr. Sweep with this sort of maintenance. Nathan did start the dryer after completion to verify vent hookup and blow any stray lint from the pipes. All in all a very good experience.

They came and gave a certificate and said I could not use my chimney. They said that my chimney had creosote and the Big Deal did not cover cleaning that. I was not happy with that but we did come to an agreement to have the service provided with an added charge but not as much as the initial proposal. The guy that came was good and he did understand my disappointment.
Description of Work: This was a Big Deal for $74.00 for a chimney sweep & inspection. They came out and they did the inspection and they said the chimney had creosote and they said they could not do the chimney sweep. We were able to come to an agreement but it did seem like a bait and switch as I had to have the work done to use the chimney and it was an extra fee for that.

We really appreciated his honesty. He could have lied and charged us a lot of money to fix something that wasn't broke
Description of Work: He examined our unit because we thought it wasn't working properly. He explained that our unit was working properly and explained why it might not always turn on immediately.

It was very good. The guy Bill was outstanding and so professional. He followed up with me and called. I would use them again. The office personnel to set the scheduling up were terrible. They did not want to honor my coupon because it was slightly different than what they did and their attitude was terrible. Bill apologized for the office personnel and made everything right. I would definitely hire Bill again and he cared about his work and cleaned up everything.
Description of Work: It was a Big Deal for $100 for Dryer Vent Cleaning. I had to have the dryer vent redone so they could clean it because it had too many turns. He also cleaned my fireplace, painted it, and installed gas logs.

First appointment was cancelled and when they came out a second time, he informed me that there would be a surcharge because the house was over 2500 sq. ft. I informed him and the phone operator who set up my appointment that the house was under 2500 sq. ft. He still did not believe me, but said he would let it slide because I only have 2 gutter runs (one in front of the house, one in the back of the house). That kind of set the tone for the rest of the service, because he was at the house for approximately 10 minutes, and he left. (By the way, my house is 2180 sq. ft......really). Tip: There are good Real Estate sites on the web, (I have used Zillow.com in the past), that will give you information on almost every house in the area, including square footage. (Good tool to use for future jobs, so you can avoid questioning the homeowner.)
Description of Work: Not sure if the service was completed.

We were completely unimpressed with the service offered. I would not recommend them or use this company again.
Description of Work: We purchased the Big Deal to have our fireplace and chimney checked after moving into a new house. We have a gas fireplace and all they did was turn it on and off. They only cleaned out two feet of the chimney and there was no inspection whatsoever.

The technician cleaned the dryer vent. However, the technician was not prepared to deal with a booster blower we have in our vent. He attempted to remove the vent pipe from the blower to clean it and was unable to do so - I suspect he did not want to spend the time necessary to do it correctly. In attempting to remove the booster fan he untaped one of the connections and was not prepared to re-tape it - we had to provide the tape. In attempting to remove the vent pipe from the booster blower fan he knocked the fan out of balance and, as a result of this, the fan now makes a disturbingly loud noise when in operation. I would suggest not using Dr. Sweep for dryer vent cleaning for anything other than ordinary short run dryer vents.
Description of Work: Cleaned the dryer vent.

If I have any non-urgent work I wouldn't hesitate to use their service in the future.
Description of Work: Overall I'm satisfied with their service. The only complain I have is they were supposed to contact me after I purchased the "big deal" from Angie's list but it took them too long to initiate the contact. But once we talked they were punctuate and the work is done efficiently.

Overall a good service for this type of work..
Description of Work: I have used the service for gutter cleaning and dryer vent cleaning. I believe this big deal was for gutter cleaning and they were responsive, easy to book and the service went fine. I noticed one my gutters over the back porch came undone during the cleaning however I never called them back to repair -which I am sure they would have done.

Bill was on time and did a perfect job with a challenging task (our fireplace exterior, being stone, is extremely uneven). He did extra work to seal the doors to the stone and it looks gorgeous! I told him the week since he fixed our damper had greatly eliminated the cold blasts that had been entering the house, and this should completely solve the problem. The work Bill did was far better than anything we could have done and it looks terrific. It adds to the value of our home and increases our comfort. I learned that Dr. Sweep also does masonry work (such as tuck pointing and cement repairs) and I will definitely hire them again.
Description of Work: I had hired Dr. Sweep on an Angie's List deal a couple of years ago. At that time, my chimney was swept and some fireplace repairs were done. I had been so happy with the work that, when I needed a damper fixed, I called Dr. Sweep. Bill Peterson came out on time and did perfect work. He noticed I had purchased fireplace doors for my fieldstone fireplace and asked if I would like to have Dr. Sweep install them. He quoted me a fair price and I booked the next service call.

They didn’t have suggestions after the inspection. The guy had to call his boss to ask a few things which is why I gave professionalism a ‘B’, but overall the experience was great! No additional fees with the Big Deal.
