I am the Chimney Cricket. No other employees. I serve from Wintergreen to Scottsville to Lovingston to Ruckersville and all points in between. I am licensed and insured.

"I called Chimney Cricket to come out and inspect/sweep my chimney since starting a fire in the (masonry) fireplace had always resulted in an unusual amount of smoke coming into the house. They fit me in quickly - that was nice - and he did the sweeping. Fast forward, I started a fire for the first time since the sweeping, and it was still really smoky. I had recently done some drywall work in the ceiling of this room, and still had a hole in the drywall. I observed a significant amount of smoke coming out of the hole (YIKES), so I doused the fire and felt around to make sure there was no interior fire. I also went outside and observed smoke coming through a pinhole mortar joint in the side of the chimney. I called him back to come take a look and find out why he hadn't told me my chimney liner was cracked. He came back - which was good - but assured me that there was no way smoke could be leaking into the house and that it was cycling back in through the attic. I subsequently confirmed that this was not the case, and finally called another chimney company out to have a look. They quickly reported that my liner was in poor shape, and a new steel liner would be necessary. So, bottom line, *DO NOT* use this company to perform an inspection. I would advise care in using him for sweeping, as long as you are very confident your chimney is in good shape. I can't speak to the quality of sweeping, though. I know the price is attractive, but sometimes you get what you pay for."

"We recently had a woodstove installed by Blue Ridge Chimney Services. I can not say enough about Matt and Victor. They are both very professional, extremely knowledgeable, pay great attention to details and very personable. The first day they came out to my home they answered all my questions regarding which stove would work best in our home. I called them a couple times with additional questions and my calls were returned promptly. They all deserve higher than 5 stars in my opinion. Rhonda in their office is fantastic as well. I would highly recommend Blue Ridge Chimney."

Additional DBAs - Nicholas Chimney works, Vienna Chimney Sweeps Inc. Hello, I am John Nicholas Petro, the owner of Nicholas Chimney Stove Fireplace. I have been in the chimney service industry for over thirty years. I cleaned my first chimney when I was eighteen years old. Chimneys are a big part of my life."If any one on my staff cannot solve your problems, please call me and I will give you my personal attention. Service area covered: Northern Virginia

"They never answer when you call and you have to leave a message. They take forever to get back to you. We had them come to clean our gas fireplace and repair it, it worked for about a month then it stopped working. We called and of course had to leave a message, then called a second time and their mailbox was full, called 2 more times and they have never called us back. So we are out $250 and our gas fireplace is not working. I do not recommend this company, they have very poor customer service and don't warranty their work if it doesn't stay fixed."

Chimney Sweep questions, answered by experts

In most cases, it’s a good idea to leave the icicles on your roof and wait for the warmer weather to melt them away naturally. You should only remove icicles if you believe they’re heavy enough to cause damage to your home or anyone who enters it.

Generally, snow removal from a roof should occur once over six inches of snow accumulates, especially if you notice that ice dams have formed. Without ice dams, you can let the snow accumulation hit 12 inches before removing it. However, the amount of snow that is too much for your roof also depends on the sturdiness of your roof and the compactness of the snow. If your roof needs maintenance or has structural issues, it’s best not to let the snow accumulate too much for fear of collapsing.

It can be dangerous to remove icicles from your roof, so the best option is to treat the underlying issue instead, usually by ensuring proper insulation in your home. If you’re concerned about immediate damage, you can hire a professional to remove the icicles and the snow accumulation on your home to prevent the issue from recurring. Just make sure you use a long-term solution, too, like addressing insulation problems or installing roof heating coils on your roof.

Roof cleaning can damage shingles if it’s done incorrectly—like with a high-power power washer—but it likely won’t damage your roof if you pay to have an expert do the work. A professional roof cleaner will use a gentle cleaning solution and a cleaning method that matches your roof material to ensure the process doesn’t damage the roof. Some homeowners worry that roof cleaning will shorten the life of their roof by removing shingle particles or protective coatings, but it often extends roof life by removing plants that cause damage and improves your home’s curb appeal simultaneously.

Yes, you can, but you’ll need to acquire the right pressure washer tips and cleaning solutions for the job. In particular, you’ll need tips that are capable of lowering the pressure from a max of 3,500 PSI to between 150 and 300 PSI. As for the cleaning solution, look for options that are clearly marked for soft washing rather than pressure washing.
