We’ve been using Antrim’s for about 8 years now and I can’t say enough good things about them. We recently bought a new home with a smaller fireplace. We really wanted a wood burning insert like our old home but I wasn’t having any luck at the local dealers finding one that would fit. I reached out to Antrim’s because of the great service they provided us in the past. They didn’t disappoint. Nathan worked with me over several weeks to find the best option for us and to stay within our budget. And Tristan and team were fantastic with the installation. Very detailed and communicated throughout the process which is very rare these days, and much appreciated. We love the new insert and will continue to use A Good Sweep for any of our fireplace/chimney needs.
I was recommended this company and they did not disappoint. Very friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. I didnt even get a second estimate because they were so great on the initial cleaning. Had my chimney re-lined and re-pointed. Chimney looks amazing and they went the extra mile to ensure the repair was done correctly and to their high standards.
I had a huge project that I needed done to fix one of the flues in a 4 flue chimney. They did amazing work, kept the house clean while they did it and finished in budget. The Chimney and wood stove cleaning service they provide is the same quality work.
Re-pointed both chimneys, installed copper caps, re-lined one for boiler; repaired other ceramic flue for fireplace w/ innovative application method. Nathan Antrim is a picky craftsman who wants it done right; he made multiple samples of mortar so as to color-match my original pointing very nicely. Super thoughtful, very careful, communicative. had him repair masonry off side porch as well. Been using him ~15 years on heirloom grandfathers Chestnut Hill stone 1929 home-- this guy is worth every penny. Hell only do it right. Dont ask him to cheap out on a job-- he wont compromise. And when it comes to keeping your house from burning down-- do you want to go w/ the lowest bidder??
A pleasure to work with this company. Office staff is courteous and responsive. Technician took great care to keep rain and mud from coming inside with his equipment. Work is completed as promised - no surprises. I feel confident that my chimney is in proper working order. Highly recommended!
Technician was very knowledgeable and professional, arrived on time and was thorough and efficient. He provided an inspection and an estimate on the work to be performed. I would not hesitate to hire them to perform the work, when we decide to proceed.
We have been using Antrims A Good Sweep to service our fireplace/chimney for several years now, and have been extremely happy with their service on all levels. We first contacted them when we suspected problems with our firebox. They performed a thorough inspection and supplied a report that was very descriptive, with photos and recommendations. They fixed the problems and have been servicing our wood stove and chimney ever since. They are extremely knowledgeable, happy to answer questions and concerns, and take great pride in their work. Communication is clear and considerate, they are careful to keep the area where they work clean, and are generally a pleasure to deal with. We tried three different chimney services before finding them - they are really the best.
A recently bought a house, and having the chimney inspected was one of the first things I had on my list. My house had a roof leak, which was later determined to be a result of the poor condition of the chimney, so this needed to be taken care of sooner rather than later. At first, I went through my oil company, which has a bunch of other services underneath it. The chimney company they sent out quoted me at around $4,000 to redo the chunk of the chimney in my attic (to plaster it, for reasons unknown, seemingly). That didnt sit well with me, so I reached out to Antrims for a second opinion. And, my goodness, Im glad I did.The representative at Antrims went about all the components of my heating and chimney, and came back to my to describe how everything worked and what my house needed really needed. To say the least, the company my oil provider sent out completely misidentified what was wrong, and Antrims fixed it completely. It turned out that my chimney needed to be repointed (its stone), and it would be fine after that (luckily, the internals of the chimney were deemed to be in fine shape).What really sold me on their service, however, was how informative the process was. The representative described how my heating system (oil and fireplaces) interacted with the chimney, what all needed to be done and how to fix the leaking problem I was having, and what improvements I could make to increase the usefulness of my fireplaces in the long run. Without a doubt, I am so glad I called and got a second opinion with Antrims, and I will be using them for all further maintenance with my fireplaces and chimney.
We have used Antrims A Good Sweep for a number of years and have nothing for praise for their services: both chimney cleaning and repair. In a service category where THE MAJORITY of service providers are either unreliable and / or do shoddy work, Antrims has been a gratifying discovery. As usual, this year, the technician (Tristan) was prompt, courteous, competent and informative. He is meticulous about leaving the house immaculate. Recommend Antrims to anybody that doesnt already have an excellent chimney sweep. A.H.
Nuts & Bolts Review: Both Tristan and Nathan were punctual, professional, knowledgeable, and patient with my questions. From the first diagnosis of our chimney issues (age and previous owner neglect), through quotation, and ultimately the repair and finish, Antrims A Good Sweep met or exceeded my expectations from a contractor.Less formal stuff: I like to ask myself after work has been done to my house, or a large purchase has been made, if I would go back and make the same choices. Not a regret or a buyers remorse thing, more of a review of my decision making as a house owner and my opinion of how I feel about a company. I would absolutely choose Antrims A Good Sweep again to perform the necessary work to repair our chimney. And I will not hesitate to call them first if I have more chimney work/service in the future. They were outstanding to deal with, and their finished product is beautiful.Tristan and Nathan clearly communicated the issues with our chimney. Laid out our options with costs of each. Clearly communicated how scheduling would play out and the length of time between first arrival and final coating. And answered every question I had along the way. I was never left wondering what would happen or when it would happen, which is a really big deal that too many contractors just completely fail at.Within 48 hours of the scaffolding being removed from my property, a dog-walking neighbor made a point of stopping to compliment the work, a new stucco finish of degraded brick chimney. Great contractors can be challenging to find, I feel fortunate we had Antrims A Good Sweep recommended to us by our fireplace servicemen.Thanks guys! I hope good word continues to spread and you earn many new clients.
My husband and I were very pleased with the work done for us... chimney repair, other brick and mortar work. Nathan, Tristan, and team were knowledgeable, skilled, professional, and timely. Its a relief to have our home repair up to date and of quality. We definitely recommend them wholeheartedly and would use them again (although of course we hope nothing else needs repair any time soon!)
Theyve earned my vote of confidence.
This is one of the finest companies that I have ever dealt with. From the first phone call to completion of the job, they offer superior customer service, meticulous attention to detail, and honest, friendly interactions. Thanks to Tristan, Jake and Jessica, I am a very happy customer.
Glad that I found a dependable chimney cleaning company! Nate provided a thorough inspection of our chimneys many years ago and helped us get them safe and up to code. Tristan provides thorough explanation of all his findings at every visit.
We recently had our bi-annual fireplace chimney sweep and inspection done by another company, they proposed some work to be done. Due to the scope and cost we decided to get a second opinion, and went with Antrims Complete Chimney and masonry service based on referral from a friend. Antrims was very genuine and honest in their assessment and discovered different things that needed to be done instead.We ended up going with Antrims based off their knowledge and overall genuine approach to the job. We were very impressed and pleased with our technician Tristian, he was great to work with and fully answered our questions. This will be our chimney company going forward.
We had chimney fire and the fire company had to come Turns out our fireplace was not safe to use as they found high heat levels in the wall above the fireplace. Antrim came and gave us a few options on the best way to make the unit safe to use again. They are very knowledgeable and I have no reservations using our fireplace (we use it a lot). I use them for cleaning the chimney every year as well. They not only clean the chimney but also can immediately repair any cracks in the mortar that show up. They are the best!
We have used Antrims on two separate occasions and each time the service has been top notch. Tristan was knowledgeable and considerate in explaining what work needed to be performed and how he was going to do it. I highly recommend Antrims for your chimney needs.
As first time homeowners, we recently hired Antrims Complete Chimney Service to clean the chimney after our first winter with a wood stove. The chimney technician was friendly, knowledgeable, and courteous, and arrived promptly for the appointment. He was very thorough in performing the cleaning and inspection, and took care to ensure that no dust or soot got in the house or on our furniture. After the inspection was completed, he informed me that there appeared to be evidence of a chimney fire having occurred recently, and that it was likely that the chimney flue was damaged as a result of the fire. He suggested that I follow up with my home insurance to see if the damage would be covered under my policy.After I started the insurance claim, Nathan Antrim (the owner) was great at helping us understand the insurance process and took time to proactively address several potential issues to avoid delays in the repair process. Nathan worked with the claims adjuster to ensure any questions about the provided repair estimate were answered promptly. When the insurance company sent a third party consulting company to investigate the damage and provide an independent report, Nathan took time out of his day to meet and speak with the investigator to clear up any confusion about the extent of the repairs required. Based on the investigators initial understanding of the damage, it is clear that the process would have taken much longer had the investigators report been completed without a full understanding of the scope of the damage.We also purchased a new wood stove to have installed while the chimney repairs were being completed. Nathan answered all of our questions thoroughly to help us understand the best stove for our home and our needs. Once we selected a model we liked, he made sure that the stove we selected would fit properly without any clearance issues.The actual repairs were completed in less time than was estimated, and all the employees were very respectful of our home and did what they could to make the process as least disruptive as possible.We were extremely pleased with our interactions with Antrims throughout the entire process, and would highly recommend their services to anyone looking for regular chimney maintenance or something more significant.
Tristan was very professional and went over everything he found. He made great recommendations and provided everything in writing. I recommend Antrims for your Chimney services.
Team Antrim was here again today for my chimney cleaning and maintenance, going on using them for almost 10 years now. What a professional and meticulous job they do - above and beyond. I was fortunate Nate was the only chimney company to return my calls 10 years ago, it has truly been an outstanding relationship. He and his team are well trained and knowledgeable about their work. Questions and concerns are always answered in a timely and thorough manner. Theyre on-time, tidy, and conscientious. I highly recommend, there is no substitute for the peace of mind Antrims Complete provides for all your chimney and fireplace needs.
If you need any chimney work done don’t hesitate to call, we had a great experience with Nathan and Tristan. The masonry repair on my chimney helped stop the leaks I was getting in my attic. They explained everything start to finish and were some of the nicest guys I’ve had out to our home. They will get my future business on any chimney or fireplace work.
We have had excellent experience with Antrims service for our chimney and firebox. Every aspect, from emails, phone calls and the service call was professional. We received a phone call letting us know the arrival time and Tristan was punctual. The cleaning process was handled with such care and consideration for keeping the area clean during and afterwards. Antrims has been the only company we have trusted with our chimney and firebox.
Antrims has done several projects for me related to chimney repair, wood stove maintenance, masonry work and roof flashing work on our historical farm house. Their work has been exceptional, from the quality of work, experience in what they do, and friendly and professional manner in the way they treat customers. I highly recommend their service. WAW
An honest & reliable company. I chose Antrim s Complete because they were very knowledgeable about older houses. They came and removed my 125+ year old crumbling chimney safely, swiftly and expertly. They were courteous and even had a worker on hand who had expertise in roofing, so the hole where the chimney used to be is now totally covered and shingled as if it never was there in the first place! The other good thing about Antrims was they have really good communication and let you know exactly what they are doing. When they were done the job, they cleaned it all up and made sure I was satisfied with the result. I would recommend them hands down as a go-to company for anything related to chimneys.
Have used them for new gas flue, major masonry repairs, chimney sweeping and annual inspection. High quality work. Very professional. Would not hesitate to recommend them.
Tristan is the best! He is always on time. His work is immaculate. And he is courteous.
I had the BEST experience possible with Antrims chimney service. They were right on time with my initial evaluation. Tristan was super thorough with his inspection, asked all the right questions, listened carefully to all my input and expertly diagnosed my chimneys problem of not having a liner causing condensation to seep through the bricks and bring moisture to the 3rd floor wall. Along with a couple other issues my chimney had.They put me on their schedule, which I was prepared for waiting 4 to 6 weeks, but they were able to squeeze my job in 3 weeks after the diagnosis, even during their busy season and lots of rainy days.They got the work done in one day as they estimated and provided pictures and video of the work they did.That job was on a rental property and I will be scheduling them for my house soon.I couldnt be happier with Antrims!! I highly recommend them.-Robert from Phoenixville
We love Antrims! Super helpful, professional, excellent quailty work, great communication, fair prices. Antrims repaired, pointed, waterproofed both our chimneys and installed new liner and pellet insert. Will be using them again next year for additional services!
Antrims is great - top notch service! Knowledgeable, reliable, and friendly. We had a great experience and they will be the only chimney company we ever call!
Service tech was very professional and explained everything in language that I could understand. He also used drop cloths / boot protectors and left no mess whatsoever !! The price was reasonable and my chimney looks like new.
