Looking to get my chimney cleaned by reputable cleaner. Gilford/Laconia area. Any recommendations?

I have used Tom Scott of Ossippe Valley Chimney 603 323 7441 many times for everything from inspections to cleanings to a variety of repairs.
I recommend him highly, nice man, great work and very reasonable prices.
He is not based in the Gilford / Laconia, hence the name but he does cover a large territory so I am sure your area is within his travels.

I'm not sure if he covers the west side of the lake or not, but the first guy I'd call is Dan Richardson in Wolfeboro. You won't find a more reliable, hardworking & honest guy. He is DBA "The Country Sweep". I think his number is 569-6498. We've had him clean our chimney for many years, and he also recently installed a new titanium chimney liner, which will undoubtedly outlast us. We're very satisfied with his work and recommend him highly.

Beaner, I agree and second your recommendation. He puts covers on over his shoes when he walks into the house and will lay down floor covers from the door to the stove/fireplace. Very thorough, very clean working, and a good value for the dollar, in my opinion. Give him a call so he can get you scheduled.
