What Los Angeles Homeowners Say About Ashby Chimney Los Angeles
Reviews matter because chimneys hide their problems. You can’t see creosote buildup behind a damper or a cracked flue liner from the living room. Homeowners in neighborhoods from Sherman Oaks to Silver Lake call us after years of guessing, and what they write afterward tells you how we actually work. Nathan Corliss and the team earn every review the same way: a written price before any work starts, a camera inspection with photos you get to see, and a written guarantee when the job is done. That’s the whole system.
Recent Reviews
“The tech showed me the flue camera footage on his tablet before he touched anything. I could see the creosote myself. They swept it, left the hearth cleaner than they found it, and the invoice matched the quote to the dollar.”
Marco V., Los Feliz
“I’d been told twice by other companies that I needed a new liner. Ashby’s camera showed mine had pitting but was structurally fine for at least a few more seasons. They wrote that down and said to check again next year. That honesty is why I won’t call anyone else.”
Rosa S., Mar Vista
“We bought a 1948 house in the Valley and had no idea when the chimney was last cleaned. Ashby found a rusted damper, replaced it with a Copperfield, and walked me through what they did with pictures. Written guarantee on the repair came with the invoice. No upsell.”
Jasmine N., Studio City
“Booked a sweep and inspection after a Santa Ana wind season pushed ash back into the firebox. The technician was on time, in uniform, and told me upfront what the sweep would cost. No surprises at the end. The fireplace pulls like it’s brand new.”
Tim B., Eagle Rock
“The flue liner was cracked in two places. They gave me a written price to reline with DuraFlex before starting, and the guarantee says if it fails they come back and fix it at no charge inside the guarantee period. That was the only thing that made me comfortable with the cost.”
Marco V., Los Feliz
“They found a partial blockage we never would have caught until it became a chimney fire risk. Removed it, swept the full flue, and left a photo report with the invoice. Calls are answered by a real person too, which matters when you’re a first-time homeowner with questions.”
Rosa S., Mar Vista
Why Customers Trust Us
Look at what keeps showing up in those reviews: the camera, the written price, the guarantee. We built Ashby Chimney Los Angeles around a simple idea, one that Nathan Corliss has held since 2002. Show homeowners exactly what’s inside their flue, give them the real number before any work starts, and put the guarantee in writing instead of asking them to take it on faith. That’s why every job includes a written price and a written guarantee. If a covered repair fails inside the guarantee period, we return and correct it at no charge. No add-on fee, no fine print. It’s the 365-Day Done Right Promise, and it’s the only way we’ve ever done business. When you call, you’ll speak with a live person who can answer questions about scheduling, pricing ranges, or what to expect during a sweep. Most chimney sweeps in Los Angeles run between $180 and $340, and we’ll give you an exact written price before anything begins. Call (213) 652-7061 to book your sweep or inspection.
