Get matched with top fireplace & wood stove pros in Valley Forge, PA

"We are very happy with all the work they have done. They had to demolish original brick fireplace and rebuild it into more modern style as per design we chose. After that they installed wood burning insert. We have been using the fireplace all winter and it is working and looks great. Chuck is very professional and very organize. We will definitely hire Alliance Chimney again in the future as we have one more fireplace to update."

"Great. Is my fireplace lit immediately?"

"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."

"The technician arrived late and I needed to follow up with office to make sure I had the right expectation, which I did, and then shortly after he called me to let me know he was on the way. Not really too big a deal since he was about 45 minutes later than his window. My gas fireplace was not lighting properly and the pilot light would go out periodically. At the end of last winter I shut off the gas for safety reasons. I called Chimney Cricket because of the recommendations of Angies list, they have all A's. The technician was professional and did an inspection of the situation and components, he checked the remote starter and ended up changing all batteries. The remote was not "connecting" and the fire would not start. Shortly after the fire seemed to start on its own. The technician continued to assess the situation but eventually made the assessment, because he could not determine definitively the manufacturer of the log set and the apparent randomness of the fire starting, that I should completely replace all components of the fireplace. In follow up emails he was going to check into the situation further and get back to me on some recommendations, I did not hear back after more than a week so I went to the local fireplace shop (Chadds Ford Fireside Shop) to buy a whole new set. The shop salesman really questioned me and doubted that I would need to spend 2,000+ on a complete new set up including the chimney inspections and installation. He recommended that I spend another fee for "their" guy to come and have a look. I was not at all interested in paying another inspection fee, I argued with the salesman about how a professional had already assessed everything and that his guy was going to find the same, but I relented after the owner of the shop realized through our conversation that his shop had installed this fireplace and all components just 6 years prior. So the new chimney Technician came out today and after checking everything essentially pushed a reset button on the remote receiver to re-sync the remote transmitter and receiver. Now the fireplace is working fine again, he also cleaned the components and pilot light. I'm writing this review because 1) the price was very high for the service received (The other technician who fixed my remote today was MUCH more reasonable). 2) Chimney Cricket didn't really tell me anything I didn't already know. 3) For a technician who has been in the gas log fireplace business for 30+ years I don't understand why he didn't know to try pushing the reset button. 4) He ended up fixing nothing, he did not fully follow up to give me recommendations and aside from an honest Fireplace shop owner who was more interested in getting my fireplace working vs making a new sale I would have spent 2,000+ for a new set up."

"Michael was very attentive and thorough in inspecting our fireplace and chimney to confirm what kinds of repairs would be needed prior to him providing an estimate. We recently just moved into this house so didn't know what condition the fireplace was in but glad we gave him a call prior to lighting it. He answered all my questions thoroughly and patiently. Our conversation alleviated a lot of the concerns I had about what would be needed to ensure safe use of the fireplace. From our conversation, I was able to confirm he took great pride in his work. I would recommend him to anyone looking to get their chimney and fireplace inspected."

"Perfectly. Nestor and his team did outstanding work to correct a leaking problem that had occurred off and on for several years, and had recently worsened. They rremoved damaged stucco and replaced with new stucco, applied crown coat, and replaced a rusty chimney cap with a custom stainless-steel cap."

"The guys did a great job putting up my new chimney and closing off the old one etc. I would recommend them for the job."

"I had Chimney Swift LLC out to clean and inspect my wood-burning fireplace, and I couldn't be happier with the service. From start to finish, they were professional, thorough, and respectful of my home. They took the time to explain what they were doing, showed me before-and-after photos of the flue, and even gave me tips for maintaining the fireplace safely throughout the season. The inspection was very detailed, and I appreciated how honest they were (no upselling) just genuine care for safety and performance. I feel so much better knowing everything is in great shape before winter hits. Highly recommend them if you're looking for reliable, knowledgeable chimney professionals!"

"Andrew and Kyle did a great job installing a gas line for an outside grill. They showed up on time for the estimate, provided me a quote the same day and scheduled the work within a few days. Quality of work was top-notch. Andrew also corrected issues with gas line for hot water heater and furnace from original construction free of charge. Will definitely use them for future projects."
