Affordable Chimney Sweeps

Read fifty of this company's reviews and you start learning the crew's names. Brandon most often, then Colby, Scott, Jeff, Dan and Dana — plus Bonnie, who books the appointments. That is the shape of Affordable Chimney Sweeps' record: 250 Google ratings averaging 4.9, and the same handful of technicians turning up in nearly all of them. The other constant is the explaining. Customers describe being walked through camera footage of their own flues, shown photos of a finished cap, and talked through what needs doing now versus what can wait. One January 2026 reviewer was struck by a camera check of the chimney paired with a drone check of the exterior brick and cap — something they had not seen before. A June 2026 customer wrote that the inspection worked as a second opinion and saved them thousands. An April 2026 customer noted there was no pressure to buy more work, just options when asked for them. The work runs well past sweeping. In September 2025 a crew fitted new flashing, a cap and water sealing to stop a leak. In January 2026 a customer had a Blue Ridge insert installed and the team carried their old screen out to the garage on the way. Chimney rebuilds, relining and one-year follow-up inspections on liners the company installed all appear in the record, and the Better Business Bureau page carries an A+ with accreditation dating to May 2020. The one sour note is old and about scheduling rather than workmanship. A November 2022 customer given a two-to-four window got a call at 1:25 saying the crew was already at the house, offered to be back by about 1:40, and was told to reschedule anyway. Nothing of the kind shows up lately — the last twenty reviews carry no complaints at all. Worth knowing that the open-web word of mouth is thinner than the review count implies. In a September 2025 r/medfordma chimney thread the company came up only as a source of an estimate a homeowner had not yet compared. A solid call for a sweep, inspection, liner or cap out of North Andover, especially if you would rather be shown the footage than handed a verdict. Confirm the arrival window and what happens if the crew runs early, and get the scope in writing if the job extends into masonry rebuilding.
