We are local firefighters who got tired of responding to house fires that started in dirty chimneys. So we started cleaning them. Honest work, photo reports, no mess.

What our neighbors say

4.8/5

We bought a house and were warned to get the chimney inspected before using it. We kept putting it off. A year later we wanted a fire for Christmas morning. AFCS came out, arrived on time, were completely professional, and gave us the green light within minutes. We had our Christmas fire and used it all winter through the snow storms and power outages. Absolutely my go-to for chimney care.

Brittney C. · Boise

The owner is very personable, receptive, and detail oriented. Any issues that came up he communicated in a professional manner. You can tell this is someone who takes the work seriously.

Justin K. · Emmett

They found a cracked flue liner that two other companies had missed. Showed me photos of everything before and after. The level of detail is unlike anything I have experienced from a home service company.

Karen L. · Caldwell

My dryer had been taking two cycles to dry anything for months. Called AFCS, they cleared a massive lint blockage in the vent line in about an hour. First load after was done in 35 minutes. Should have called a year ago.
