Testimonials
Happy Clients, Happy Homes
I can’t say enough good things about Black Moose Chimney including the people in the office. They did excellent work and our chimney project had some complications. All handled professionally and with a sense of humor. I recommend them 100%! Just great, honest, hardworking folks.
They were very polite and knew what they were doing. Took time to make sure they didn’t make a mess even though my home was already a mess. Would recommend every time
Patrick came to our house and did a wonderful job. As someone who has never had a pellet stove before we moved in, he was very knowledgeable and made sure we knew everything we could about our stove before he left. He also gave it a very thorough inspection/cleaning after finding out it hadn’t been used in over two years. We will definitely be future customers for annual cleanings!
Lead person was very friendly and communicative. Kept us informed. Excellent clean-up, both days. Didn’t have enough ‘insulation’, so had to come back to finish, but did so within a very reasonable time-frame. Arrival for final visit was over an hour late and while didn’t have an issue, would have been nice to get a call.
Great customer service by technician Patrick. Very professional, courteous and efficient with his work. He also was very careful to keep things covered and clean while brushing the flue. Highly recommend this company and technician.
They arrived on time, performed the work professionally and cleaned up well. The tech was friendly and respectful, he took the time to answer any questions and showed us the inspection photos for before and after. We’ll continue to use these guys.
They arrived on time, worked quickly and showed me the results. Prfessional throughout. jr
Really helped me out can’t say enough good things highly recommend!!!! The young man that came to my home was very knowledgeable and friendly great attitude all around answered all my questions and left me stress free best of all left no mess.🤙🏻🤙🏻
I wanted to give 5 stars but they are very busy which meant I had a good wait for both the inspection/cleaning, then for a quote on repairs and then for the repairs. Their prices seemed a little high to me but I have nothing to compare with as they were highly recommended by someone I trust and other companies had plenty of negatives reviews which kept me from getting additional quotes. I am happy with the work and they promptly returned to fix a mistake that had been made. Chris the inspector, Jennifer in the office, and Alex and his repair crew were all pleasant and took the time to answer all of my questions. Alex and his crew even took their shoes off (it was winter) before entering my house without even being asked! So if you are not in a rush and want to ensure you chimney is as safe as possible then I think you’ll be happy with Black Moose.
After a recent sweep of our chimney, it was discovered that our flue tiles were cracked. Black Moose techs were hard working, detail oriented and professional! Nice jobs guys! See you next year for my cleaning!
Excellent I highly recommend Black Moose Chimney and Stove; Kelly and Liam are awesome, they did a great job. Extremely professional, arrived early, went through everything with a fine tooth comb ensuring pellet stove was thoroughly cleaned. They also were respectful of my home, conscientious and cleaned up after themselves. Made sure stove worked prior to leaving and told me to call promptly if anything came up afterward. Will definitely use them again.
We’ve had Black Moose clean our chimney for a number of years.But recently, we had an emergency situation at our home involving our chimney & oil furnace flue, which was caked full of soot from a malfunctioning furnace. They came & cleaned out both flues in no time, even going up on the roof with snow on it! They cleaned up after their work in the interior rooms where the oil furnace and the woodstove are located. Great work. Reasonable prices. Very nice people. You can’t go wrong with Black Moose.
Goods: The technicians know their business, very efficient in cleaning/inspection along with cleaning up after the ‘dirty work’.Others: Communications could be more effective. Despite early coordination about scope of work (multiple flues within same chimney) the estimate provided did not reflect this and the final invoice was significantly more than the estimate provided.Quote for follow-on chimney relining was significantly more than that offered by other companies in the area (and far more than neighbors experienced for similar work accomplished by other companies)
