Our chimney cap was cracked and broken open. Mike responded VERY quickly and was able to get us an estimate and then do the work before further damage occurred. Further, their work is more than just a "patch" job, and the quality should last many years. We're pleased.

Very happy with our Able Chimney Sweeps experience. The thing that made the biggest impression (aside from the tech's unwavering professionalism and courtesy) was the fact that when he used his camera to look at the inside of the chimney, he did it with my husband looking over his shoulders so that they both saw all of the images in real time, at the same time. (We had a bad experience with a heating company technician showing us still shots that were allegedly the damage on the inside of our furnace, but he could not find the damage again when we asked to see them in real time. Shady.) Very impressed with this Able tech's honesty and transparency. I wish we'd gotten his name so that we could sing his praises more specifically! Highly recommend Able Chimney Sweeps. We'll use them again.

Able was amazing! They were able to bore out my old liner and get me up and running with a fire 2.5 days later! (This was a fireplace that hadn’t seen a fire in over 50 years) Great communication and the employees left my house sparkling clean every day. I couldn’t have asked for better service from the initial phone call, honest estimate, and great work! Thank you Able!
