Get matched with top chimney cap installers and replacers in Swampscott, MA

"This is the first time I used Affordable Chimney Sweep and I was so impressed. During a storm, my chimney cap fell off. The office staff was efficient and so easy to deal with when I called. The work was completed today (around my schedule!) and I could not be happier. The repair technicians were friendly and professional. They actually called their boss to see if they could charge me less than my original quote as the job was not as difficult as expected. What great customer service! Will definitely be calling them again in the future and will recommend to everyone I know. Thank you for a job well done!"

"EXCELLENT! We've been without heat for 5 days. John diagnosed the problem with the chimney flue (a former contractor who re-pointed the bricks dropped concrete into the flue, essentially cutting off all air) and made all the repairs. He, Miguel and Paul were very professional, competent and courteous. Brittani was excellent in setting it all up! Would definitely recommend!"

"I have an old roof and I wanted to get a good amount of estimates. I was a little put off that the consultation didn’t actually include someone actually going on the roof to look at it. I mean I am looking at roofing work wouldn’t a ladder be appropriate? Before even sitting down with the sales rep, I was told how old my roof was and that it basically needed to be torn down. Granted, that might have been the case, but my roof is extremely hard to see from the ground up. The area that the leak was coming from is not even visible from my yard or even across the street for that matter. Once I showed him the leak area he noticed that I had old skylights. He made a point to continue to point out how old and outdated they were. I mentioned that I was going to look into getting those replaced in the near future but right now I wanted to focus on the roof. However, once the “quote” was given to me, it included solar skylights (at an outrage price at that). Since then, I was quoted by 3 other people at half the price of what they wanted to replace them for. Again, I knew this was going to be an expensive project. I full expected that. As a positive note, I will say that the sales rep was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. The consultation lasted for probably an hour. I felt like I was in a boardroom and someone was giving me a sales pitch on the company – which wasn’t necessarily a bad thing, but my goal was to get the quote. As great as the company may be, it all comes down to the dollar amount for most people. I had to wait 60 minutes to actually be told what the quote was. I almost fell on the floor. It was $25,000 (3x the amount of what other companies were quoting me at for the same work). I’m not saying they wouldn’t have done a great job, but for me and my budget, it was extremely unreasonable. Please understand, it's not the price that has me rating this as a C. The only reason why I am giving this a C rating is because I did feel pressured to call in for financing. The sales rep mentioned numerous times that I could get approved right then and there. I told him that I hadn’t made a decision yet and he told me I could still call and get approved and they would hold it for 30 days. I felt that he was put off by the fact that I wasn’t going to do this and that I wanted to think about it. I also felt pressured as to letting him know when I would make my decision. Again, I had a lot to think about here. I wasn’t even thinking of financing as that was the last thing I wanted to do. In the end, it was at that moment (along with the astronomical pricing) that I decided to not go with this company. If it’s one thing a consumer doesn’t want to feel, it is pressure. I appreciated the options he gave, but when I say that I need to think about it that is where it should have ended, don’t pressure me further. It actually rubbed me the wrong way. As a result of this (not to mention the high pricing), I went with another company who ended up doing the same work for nearly a third of the cost and was just as professional with no added pressures."

"Jeremy came in on time and he performed a chimney inspection as well as he cleaned one of our fireplaces.
He took the time to listen to all of our questions and concerns and he provided us with answers to all our questions.
We are very happy with the quality of their service and we will be definitely using their services in the future."

"Rick Ferreira and the team were very responsive and terrific to work with. They worked with me so we could get the inspection and the chimney repairs done promptly."

"Started a little slow, but this is their busy time of year - once it got going, it went very fast. Derek and his crew were very courteous and professional. I have had numerous people work on the fireplace and chimney over 40 years and none of them were as good as The Fireplace Guys. They laid down tarps not just in front of the fireplace, but all the way to the door! The sweep they performed before installing the fireplace was the best ever. Cost listed does not include the electrician and the plumber whom I paid myself."

"They were friendly, kind and extremely knowledgeable. They take great pride in their professionalism and pay close attention to detail. They showed me all the work I needed and gave me an estimate that did not change. Dave showed me what other companies did not. It was obvious that what the other companies failed to point out was going to have to be done thus pointed out after work and begun. That is a trick to change the estimate and have you pay more when your most vulnerable. Footies showed me all the problems, gave me a price and stuck to it. It is now a safe burning unit and it looks beautiful! Thanks Dave!!"

"The work went smoothly and was done professionally. We discussed before hand that the bricks should blend in as much as possible, the selection of bricks Tri-State was able to find helped achieve this. The masonry is aligned properly and looks beautiful. The sealer was a suggestion by Mr. Dintino because our chimney is on the north side of the house and does not get sunlight. We see it has made a difference and are very happy we went with the suggestion. The crew arrived promptly and Mr. Dintino was on site as well, they were all professional and cleaned up each evening to minimize the impact on our access to the house. We have used Tri-State to clean our chimney for several years, we are very happy with the work and would recommend them in the future.

"I highly recommend Capuano Construction for their masonry work. The men who did the work were polite and efficient, and did a great job of managing around all the rain we've had this fall. The work itself is top quality. And, wonder of wonders, my invoice was several thousand dollars less than the original quote!"

"Excellent work. Excellent clean-up. Showed great care for our property. Very professional from estimate to install. Will be referring to all our friends and family or anyone mentioning the need for this service."
