What Marietta Homeowners Say About Ashby Chimney Marietta
Reviews tell you what a chimney company is actually like after the truck pulls away. We’ve been cleaning and repairing chimneys in Marietta since 2002, and the pattern in what homeowners tell us is consistent: they want the written price before anything starts, they want to see what we see inside the flue, and they want a guarantee that’s actually in writing. That’s how Nathan Corliss runs every job. These reviews below are from real Marietta customers, quoted in their own words about the work we did and what it cost.
Recent Reviews
“Ashby came out to our 1960s ranch near Marietta Square and found a creosote buildup I’d been ignoring for three seasons. They showed me the camera footage before touching anything. The sweep took about an hour and the price quoted at the door matched the invoice exactly. First chimney company I’ve used that didn’t try to upsell me a liner I didn’t need.”
Imani C.
Marietta Square area“We smelled smoke backing up into the living room every time we lit a fire. Nathan Corliss came out, inspected, and found the damper wasn’t seating right plus a bird had started a nest at the top of the flue. He fixed both the same afternoon, gave me photos of the repair, and the written guarantee came with the receipt. No extra charge for the guarantee, which honestly surprised me.”
Colleen P.
East Cobb, Marietta“Bought a house off Whitlock Avenue and the previous owner hadn’t swept the chimney in years. The amount of creosote they showed me on camera was alarming. Ashby swept it, treated the flue, and told me plainly that the liner was still solid and I didn’t need to replace it. They could have sold me a liner that day and I wouldn’t have known the difference. That honesty is why they’ll be back every year.”
Tiana E.
Whitlock Avenue, Marietta“Had water leaking into the firebox after heavy rain. Another company told me I needed $4,000 in masonry work. Ashby sent Travis out, he ran a camera inspection, and found the real issue was a cracked chimney cap, not the crown. $300 fix, done that week, and the leak has not come back. The written price before work started kept me from getting taken.”
Travis V.
Kennesaw Mountain area“We use the fireplace most of the winter and I’m picky about who comes into the house. Background-checked and uniformed actually means something to me. The tech was on time, wore shoe covers, laid down drop cloths, and left the hearth cleaner than he found it. That’s the Kingswell Way they talk about, and it’s real.”
Colleen P.
Powers Ferry Road area“Nathan walked me through the inspection report line by line. Showed me where the flue tiles had hairline cracks and explained that HeatShield could seal them without a full liner replacement. I approved the repair because I could see the problem myself, not because someone told me it was urgent. That’s how a chimney company should operate.”

Why Customers Trust Us
The pattern in those reviews repeats because it’s the way we work: a written price before any work starts, so the number on the invoice matches the number quoted at the door. A camera inspection you can see with your own eyes, so nobody is asking you to take a repair on faith. Background-checked, uniformed technicians, so you know exactly who is in your home. The materials come from real chimney-trade suppliers, DuraFlex for liners, HeatShield for flue sealing, Olympia Chimney for caps and dampers, not a generic parts bin. Every repair carries a written guarantee, and if that repair fails inside the guarantee period under the Kingswell Guarantee, we come back and fix it at no charge. That covers the 365-Day Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, we make it right. Written by Nathan Corliss, Owner at Ashby Chimney Marietta, serving Marietta since 2002.
