At Barry John Chimney, we're committed to providing chimney services you can rely on to keep your home and family safe and warm. From routine inspections and chimney cleaning to the odd occurrence of an animal trapped in the chimney, we're here to help. Dirty or damaged chimneys can be a dangerous hazard to your home.
No homeowner should operate their chimney without a liner. New homeowners or owners of older homes should have their chimney and liner inspected prior to using. Barry John Chimney can install a stainless steel chimney liner to replace a damaged liner. A properly fitted and installed stainless steel chimney liner will allow your appliances to work more efficiently, reduce creosote residue buildup, and send harmful gases like carbon monoxide out of your home.The liner also protects the chimney walls from corrosion and heat damage, limiting fire risk.
Wood, pellet, and gas stoves are a very popular option for homeowners. Not only do they offer an additional, economical heating opportunity, they can enhance the cozy atmosphere to a room. You have your common stand alone stove that sits on a hearth or what is called a stove insert which fits inside a fireplace.

Critical: Professionalism, Punctuality, Responsiveness Bad company managed by rude people. I approved the estimate and they made me wait four months to tell me that they won't be able to do the job. Service: Chimney repair & restoration

Used them for cleaning chimney on a wood stove insert. Only chimney sweep if found that knew how to do it without removing stove from fireplace.

I honestly don't know how anyone could say anything negative about this business. I have been using them for over 20 years. They have installed/cleaned/removed old stove pipes/installed new stove pipes and I have been very pleased with their service. The technicians that have come to my home are very knowledgeable and polite. After using them for so long I always request the same guys. I recommend them all the time.

Had our chimney swept. Did a thorough and clean job. We had some creosote build up and the guy took time to show me and explain possible causes, how to avoid, and best ways to remedy. Happy with the service. Thanks.

They do not give you a quote after asking for $75 to diagnose a problem. While they are there they tell you something is horribly wrong such as your whole flue may have to be replaced. They are just looking to making money on people who do not know anything. DO NOT USE THEM. Chimney Doctor came out and told me the truth and were wonderful!

The rheostat on our fireplace insert failed. The technician examined the unit and the office ordered a new part. Unfortunately, the part delivered was wrong. Second visit. Then, when the new part arrived only one technician arrived for a 2 person job, third visit. On the fourth visit Jeremy arrived with a helper and 20 minutes later another team of two technicians showed up to make sure everything would go ok. Jeremy replaced the unit, reattached the flu, and caulked the junction.

He vacuumed everything and wiped down the unit. Everything works fine now. Everyone was friendly but they were all dirty. Dirty jeans, shoes, and hands. They did lay blankets but they too looked dirty. Very pleased with the final result but it took two visits too long. However, I would use them again.

Had an inspection went well. Seems like a honest company not pushing add ons or unnecessary work. Explain all the possibilities and future work. Good so far!

I own a stove and fireplace stove and have used these guys to install everything I sell for the past 6 years. They can do it all, including the most difficult and complex.

Horrible Company! Installed wood stove that leaked and had to call Town Building Inspector to call the owner of Barry John to force him to respond to my issue. Ultimately the piping they installed came apart inside my house on a windy day! I may take them to court! Edward McMahon
