What Littleton Homeowners Say About Emberly Chimney Cleaners Littleton
We’ve cleaned and inspected more than 38,000 chimneys since 2009, and every one of those jobs ended with a written record, a photo report, and a price that was agreed to before we touched a tool. Reviews matter because they’re the only part of our work we don’t control. The people below are real Littleton homeowners who called (720) 439-4666, got a live person on the line, and had their chimney cleaned under the Haven Standard. Here’s what they said afterward.
Recent Reviews
We bought a 1986 ranch in Columbine Valley last fall and the home inspector flagged the chimney as “serviceable” without ever running a camera. Corrine’s crew came out for a Emberly inspection and found the flue liner had three vertical cracks you couldn’t see from the firebox. They showed me the footage on a tablet right there, explained that Class III creosote had built up behind the smoke chamber shelf, and gave me a written price for the sweep and the liner repair before anyone picked up a brush. The tech’s name was on the invoice, his license number was printed at the top, and I got a text when he was fifteen minutes out. Whole thing took under two hours and I have the photo record saved in my email.

Our fireplace in Ken Caryl had been smoking into the living room every time the wind came from the west. Three different companies told us we needed a new chimney cap, a new crown, and “probably” a liner rebuild. Corrine sent a technician who ran a camera scan first, found the real problem was a partially collapsed smoke chamber narrowing the flue, and showed me the comparison footage from a proper draft test. Written price before work started, just like they promise. The sweep cleared out glazed creosote, they parged the smoke chamber with HeatShield, and the draft improved that same evening. I brought them a competitor’s $4,200 estimate and they did the actual needed work for under a third of that. Clause 1 of the Haven Standard is real.

I’m a Realtor in Littleton and I’ve stopped recommending chimney companies who won’t put their price in writing upfront. Emberly Chimney Cleaners is the only one I send clients to now because Corrine’s team doesn’t play the “we’ll see what we find” game. Last month I had a listing in the Broadmoor area with a fireplace that hadn’t been used in six years. Their technician found a bird’s nest in the flue, documented it with photos under Clause 4, removed it, swept the system, and gave the buyers a clean report with timestamps. No surprises at closing. The seller paid $189 for the sweep and the deal closed on time.

We heat with wood in a 1920s bungalow near Downtown Littleton and I was convinced our draft problems meant a full liner replacement. Corrine came out herself, ran the camera, and pointed out that the terracotta liner was actually in decent shape for its age. The real issue was spalling brick in the crown letting water seep down and mix with ash into a concrete-like blockage. She showed me the water staining on the footage, explained exactly where the leak was coming from, and gave me a written price for crown sealing with CrownCoat and a full sweep. Saved me thousands. The 365-Day Done Right Promise isn’t marketing. Our draft meter readings improved from 12 pascals to 28 pascals and she emailed me the numbers.

After the Marshall Fire, I got paranoid about our chimney in South Littleton. Called three places. Two wanted to sell me a stainless steel liner over the phone without looking at anything. Emberly sent a uniformed tech named Marcus, background check confirmed when I asked, license number right on his badge. He ran the NFPA 211 Emberly inspection with a camera, found normal Class I creosote buildup and one cracked flue tile at the thimble. Showed me everything on the tablet. Written price for the sweep and the tile repair before he touched anything. I watched him do the work through the glass door. Photos of the finished flue landed in my inbox before he pulled out of the driveway. That’s Haven Standard Clause 4 in action.

I manage a rental property near Chatfield Reservoir and the tenants complained about a “smoky smell” every time the furnace cycled. I expected a $3,000 liner job. Corrine’s crew found the connector pipe from the furnace to the flue had separated by half an inch, dumping combustion gases into the chimney chase. They camera-scanned the entire run, found the gap at the elbow, and showed me the CO readings. Written price for resealing the connection and a sweep. Done in ninety minutes. The photo record went to me and the tenants. I keep their number in my phone now. (720) 439-4666, and a human answers.

Why Customers Trust Us
Every review above mentions the same things because they’re built into how we operate, not how we market. The Haven Standard requires a written price before work starts on every job, Clause 1, and we’ve done it on all 38,000-plus chimneys since 2009. The camera inspection and documented photo record isn’t an upsell, it’s Clause 4, included on every visit because you can’t make an informed decision about your chimney from a verbal summary. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and named on your invoice. The 365-Day Done Right Promise means if something we did needs correction, we make it right without a second invoice.
We source materials through Haven’s buying network from DuraFlex, HeatShield, Gelco, Olympia Chimney, Famco, and Copperfield specifically to keep pricing honest, not to inflate margins. If you have a competitor’s written estimate, we’ll give you a free second opinion. Calls are answered by a live person, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. No voicemail trees. No “call for a quote” runaround.
Your chimney in Littleton doesn’t need theater. It needs a camera, a trained technician, and a price you can hold in your hand before anyone lights a match. Call (720) 439-4666 and you’ll speak to a person who can book your inspection today.
