Why Atlanta Homeowners Choose Ashby Chimney Atlanta for Chimney Cleaning
We’re the chimney cleaning company that shows you the flue. Every job we do in Atlanta starts with a written price before any work begins, and ends with The Kingswell Guarantee in your hand. Nathan Corliss leads our local team, and the reputation we’ve built across Dunwoody, Decatur, East Point, and the surrounding neighborhoods comes down to one thing: we say what we’ll do, show up in the window we gave, and leave your home cleaner than we found it. If a repair fails inside the guarantee period, we come back and fix it at no charge. That’s not a slogan. It’s the way we’ve always worked.
6 Reasons We’re Atlanta’s Top Chimney Cleaning Company
1. Local Experience That Shows Up in Every Flue We Inspect
Atlanta chimneys face a specific set of challenges: high humidity that accelerates mortar deterioration, the freeze-thaw cycles that come through in January and February, and creosote buildup from the long burning season that starts in October and runs into March. Our team has cleaned thousands of chimneys across the metro area, and we know what to look for in a Druid Hills bungalow versus a newer build in Fairburn. When we inspect your flue, we’re not just running a brush through it. We’re looking for the failure patterns we see in this exact climate, on these exact homes, year after year.
2. A Reputation Built on Showing the Homeowner What We See
The strongest proof we can offer is our local reputation. Homeowners across North Atlanta and Hapeville consistently tell us the same thing: nobody else showed them the camera footage before recommending work. That’s our whole approach. When we tell you a liner needs attention or your crown is cracked, you’ll see it with your own eyes on our inspection camera. Nathan Corliss has built our Atlanta team around that principle. No guesswork, no scare tactics, just a clear picture of what’s actually happening inside your chimney.
3. State-Licensed and Required to Carry Insurance
Every pro working under our name is required to hold the license and insurance the state of Georgia requires. Licensing matters because chimney work sits at the intersection of fire safety and structural integrity. You want someone who’s accountable to the state, not just to their own promises. We carry the coverage that protects your home while we’re on it. If something goes wrong, you’re not left holding the bill. When you’re comparing chimney companies in Atlanta, ask every one of them to prove their licensing and insurance in writing. We’ll show you ours without hesitation.
4. Real Expertise With DuraFlex, HeatShield, and Gelco Systems
When repair work is needed, the products we use matter as much as the hands installing them. We’re trained on DuraFlex stainless steel liner systems, HeatShield’s cerfractory flue sealant technology, and Gelco waterproofing products. That means we can match the right solution to the actual problem we find in your flue, not just sell you whatever’s on the truck. In Gresham Park and Candler-McAfee, we’ve used HeatShield to restore flues that other companies said needed a full rebuild. Sometimes the less invasive fix is the right one, and you’ll see the evidence for it on camera before we touch anything.
5. Transparent Pricing, Written Down Before Work Begins
The Kingswell Way starts with a simple rule: say the price before the work. You’ll get a written estimate before any cleaning or repair begins, and that price doesn’t change at the door. No surprise add-ons, no upselling in the middle of the job. If the inspection reveals something unexpected, we stop and show you what we found. Then we write a new price and you decide. That’s how we’ve always operated in Atlanta, and it’s why homeowners in Union City and Dunwoody tell us we’re the first chimney company that didn’t leave them feeling taken.
6. The Kingswell Guarantee, in Writing, on Every Job
Every Ashby Chimney Atlanta job is covered by The Kingswell Guarantee. Four promises, put in writing: a written price before work starts, a real arrival window, a clean job site, and a written guarantee on the work. If a repair fails inside the guarantee period, we come back and fix it at no charge. That guarantee comes from the Ashby Chimney Sweep brand standard, but it’s our local team that honors it on the ground in Atlanta. You’ll get it in writing before we start, not after we’ve left.
Our Promise to You
Here’s what you can hold us to when you call Ashby Chimney Atlanta. First, the price we quote is the price you pay. It’s written down before we start. Second, we give you a real arrival window and we show up inside it. Third, we leave your home cleaner than we found it. Drop cloths down, HEPA filtration running, and a full sweep of the work area before we walk out the door. Fourth, every repair we make is covered by a written guarantee. If it fails inside that period, call us. We come back and make it right at no charge. If you’re ever not satisfied with our work, tell us before we leave or call us afterward. We’ll work with you until you’re satisfied. That’s the way Nathan Corliss has run this team from day one.
