"I recently used Alliance Chimney & Energy to inspect and clean my chimney. They were very thorough and professional. The technicians arrived on time, explained everything clearly, and left my fireplace sparkling clean. However, if you're looking to upgrade your fireplace for more heating efficiency or add a new heat source altogether, Belle Flame [https://belleflame.com/] might be a good resource to explore. Here's why: Focus on Heating Solutions: While Alliance Chimney excels at fireplace maintenance, Belle Flame offers a wider range of heating options beyond traditional fireplaces.

"Chuck responded fast to my message. He was one of the most honest people I met on Angies. Unlike other chimney sweeps, he said that my chimney is in a good shape and cleaning was no necessary."

"We’re enjoying the heat and beauty of our new fireplace as I write this! Chimney Cricket supported us through a tough series of errors caused by manufacturer’s lack of support. Finally they were able to locate the errors and get our beautiful new fireplace up and running. My only word of warning to folks considering installation of a new fireplace: make sure the model you select has a track record of easy installation and servicing, and that the manufacturer is known for standing behind their products."

"Igor stopped by the work in the fireplace. He was very punctual, explained everything and was honest and upfront about the cost. We are very happy with the service provided."

"The person who came was very knowledgeable and friendly. He did a great job and he was nice. I ended up needing help with the electrical switch on the fireplace. We are very satisfied with them."

"Al was fantastic! He clearly explained that my fireplace was shutting off as a safety feature due to low oxygen levels. He also reassembled the logs in the firebox and showed me the proper way to start and stop the fireplace. Highly recommend his service!"

"We are very happy with Image Chimney Care services! They provided reliable and professional service. I would recommend to my friends and family for their service. Thank you! I give 5 rating for their service. Sincerely, P. K."

"Joe came and fixed my fireplace with no problem."

"Very nice guy, came and checked out and cleaned the pellet stove So it was one less thing to worry about come winter (and didn't get pellet dust everywhere!). He was in and out fairly quickly leaving quality behind which is hard to find. Would definitely recommend!"

"Extremely quick to respond and easy to schedule! Work was done in a professional manner. My only disappointment was that I had to ask how long to wait before using the fireplace after the lining was installed. Better communication with the customer is needed."
