Very pleased with the work provided by Smart Chimney. Along with chimney sweep, the refractory panels in our fireplace needed to be replaced and a new gas pipe installed. Our technician arrived on time, and started right away with placing tarps and plastic to protect our carpet and furniture. The job took almost 4 hours, but our fire place looks brand new. We will definitely use them again.

I hired them to remove a ventless fireplace in my condo. They were responsive and tidy and cleaned up the space. I appreciated their professionalism!

Fixed our issue on 1st visit. It was a loose connection - they really tested the rest of the line to make it was the only one. Very confident of this solution.

Excellent
Smart Chimney Inc. came out on a weekend to give me a quote for a chimney leak. I needed it fixed quickly due to an impending rain storm. They were there early the next business day and worked past dark. They did a great job cleaningchimney, installing a new liner and rebuilding my chimney. Made sure everything was cleaned up and communicated each step all the way through the job. Would highly recommend.

The Smart Chimney team is a delight to work with. They promptly responded to my inquiry, scheduled a visit, arrived on time, completed the task and explained additional work that could be done. The quote for additional work (conversion to a remote controlled fireplace) was reasonable and we hired them again to complete the conversion. On both occasions, the team was punctual and professional in every aspect. We warmly recommend the Smart Chimney for your fireplace maintenance and upgrade projects!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I provide fair and competitive pricing based on the scope of the project and materials needed. Estimates are explained clearly with no hidden fees. I also try to work with customers to find the best solution for their budget while maintaining quality workmanship.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
First, I speak with the customer to understand the project and schedule an inspection or estimate. Then I explain the recommended work, provide a detailed quote, and answer any questions. Once approved, we schedule the project, complete the work professionally and efficiently, and make sure the area is clean before finishing.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have several years of hands-on experience in masonry, chimney repair, fireplace work, tuckpointing, and general construction. I continuously stay updated on safety standards, building practices, and proper installation techniques to provide professional and dependable service.
