Review from HomeOwner Review left on 24 Mar 2023Rating: 5 out of 5John from Able did a fabulous job for me; cleaned the chimney, checked the chimney on my roof and provided photos of same; recommended source of new fire screens and came back to me, at no cost, to exchange the old bent screens for new screens. Cant say enough about courtesy and high level of professionalism extended by John.Review from Customer of Able Sweeps Customer of Able Sweeps
Review left on 13 Jul 2020Rating: 5 out of 5Fireplace clean-out
John and team cleaned-out our airtight wood-burning fireplace west of Cochrane last week. Excellent work, courteous and thorough. John assessed the stove and placement relative to stove bylaws and regs and made a few suggestions to ensure compliance for insurance purposes should there be a fire and insurance claim - much appreciated. Thanks guys. Will definitely have you back in a year or two. BobAnswer from pro:
Thank you very much for the excellent review Bob. And thank you for choosing Able for your fireplace needs.

We booked a sweep on fairly short notice. Jerry and Jamie did a good job, were very efficient and friendly, and didn't leave any mess. We'll certainly use them again.Answer from pro:

Review left on 13 Nov 2019Rating: 1 out of 5Chimney Cleaning - one time & tried for a 2nd time...but NOPE!
My Husband and I had this company out in early September to clean the chimney of a house we just bought. The onsite work was good. They were given my Husband's phone number, as he was home during the cleaning. Well, as first time wood stove users, we mucked something up and needed it cleaned again. I proceed to call in, and provide another phone number, as Tina said John would call me to talk about my smoke issue. After I called in again, Tina didn't have the right phone number again. Gave her the right number again. John called & then came out and confirmed my chimney needed to be cleaned again. I appreciated this. I booked a visit, provided my phone number again. This is the Second - Forth time, I've provided a different phone number! Well the day of the cleaning comes, and its Noon. No one has showed up, so I call. Tina, says, I left you a voicemail. No one has called me at the phone number that i have provided 2-4 different times previously. She left a voicemail AT THE WRONG PHONE NUMBER AGAIN!! <--this is why i DO NOT recommend this company.Answer from pro:
Thank you Iona for providing a review of our customer service. I had left a voice message with you a week ago wishing to discuss the details of your complaint and determine a solution that works for you. From your review and speaking to our scheduling person, it appears that our scheduling person had written your phone number down improperly on one occasion. When she called you to re-schedule the last appointment, she called the last number that you called her with. We are very concerned about how our customers are treated, which is why I visited your home to assess your smoke issue without charging you a fee. Customer service is one of our top priorities and we are disappointed to learn that you had anything less than a stellar experience with us. John, owner.

Review left on 10 Apr 2015Rating: 5 out of 5Top sealing chimney dampers
We have two fireplaces and had issues with smoking being drawn into our basement when we used our upstairs fireplace. Able installed two top sealing dampers and all our draft issues were gone. It great reduced the cold air drafts too. They did a great job.Answer from pro:
Thank you for the great positive review. We always appreciate it when we hear of our customers feeling they have been well served.
