Description

Chimney Sweep service under the name Mr.Chimney - Some refer to as the Mr-Chimney scam. Showed up as a top hit on google for my area. In retrospect, the site and scheduling was unprofessional. They showed up an hour late and appeared to be working - some chimney cleaning was done but not to the "level 3" that was charged. At the time of payment, they even requested a tip for the service starting at 15%. They offer an inspection and sweep for $89 each but then upsell or say the conditions of the chimney are worse than they are. The man poorly cleaned both chimney's and did a firebox "repair" that has failed after the first fire. I called their number and they could not find my job order or receipt. They called back, telling me to upload images of the issue and that they would get back to me. Attaching the receipt and job order.
