What Our Customers Are Saying

Cleaned our chimney and on a separate occasion was able to repair cracked stucco, power wash, and paint the chimney, which looks like new. When looking for a team I was surprised to see so many good reviews, but after using them I understand why. Great work, super great people. Would recommend and would use again!

I reached out to Joe to take a look at the fireplace/chimney in the 100 year old house we recently purchased. He took his time evaluating everything, taking pictures, and overall being really thorough. He gave me a helpful view into some of the damage the previous owners had done as well as a range of solutions (from free steps I could take to purchasing and installing a new insert). We spent a few weeks...

Emma L.

Overall experience was excellent with Chimney Scientists. From scheduling the appointment to the actual job, everything went great. Ben and Lindsay were very knowledgeable, thorough, patient and answered all of my questions. We had them inspect our gas fireplace and chimney which hadn’t been used in at least 3 years. It’s been working great since. Would definitely hire them again and would request Ben and Lindsay.
