Meet Our Recommended Chimney and Fireplace Professionals!

NOTE: This is not a paid advertisement. We never accept compensation of any kind to add a company to our referral list and we won’t recommend anyone we don’t know. A company can only be listed on our site if we’ve personally used them or we’ve worked with them in some capacity, or they came highly recommended by someone we trust. This way, we can feel confident that any contractor and specialist on our site is being recommended solely based on their quality of work and excellent service.

Whether your usual fireplace or chimney professional is retiring or you just want backup options, we can help. This month, we’d like to tell you about our favorites.

Certified Chimney Inspectors will examine the fireplaces and chimneys. Fireplace Freddie fixes them. Both companies have been on our referral list for over 20 years and we’ve never received one single complaint about either of them.

A little about each company….
