Chimney sweep logs do not sweep chimneys. They loosen some creosote - which then falls where a brush and vacuum still have to collect it.
The Alcott Chimney West Palm Beach Guarantee
We’ve been sweeping chimneys in West Palm Beach since 2002, and we’ve learned something the hard way: a guarantee is only worth the paper it’s written on if the company behind it actually shows up when something goes wrong. Ours does. Every repair we complete at Alcott Chimney West Palm Beach comes with a written guarantee, and if that repair fails, the second visit is free. That’s not a promotion. That’s a condition of doing business. You’ll also get a written price before any work begins, so the number you approve is the number you pay. No handshake math at the door. Ruben Castellano, Owner, built this company on the idea that a clean, safe fireplace is one you can trust, and trust has to be written down.
What’s Covered
- Workmanship on every repair. When we fix something, the repair is covered by a written guarantee. If it fails, we come back and make it right at no charge.
- Cleanup after every sweep. Drop cloths go down before the brushes come out. Your floors, furniture, and mantel stay clean. If soot tracks anywhere it shouldn’t, we fix that before we leave.
- On-time arrival with advance notice. You’ll know the technician’s name and see their photo before we arrive. They’ll show a photo ID badge at the door. Every time.
- Honest pricing before work starts. You’ll receive a written price before anything happens. That price does not change unless you approve a new one. Surprise charges at the end of the job are not how we operate in West Palm Beach.
- Parts we actually specify, not whatever was on the shelf. We carry and install professional trade brands: DuraFlex liner systems, HeatShield resurfacing, Gelco, Olympia Chimney, Famco, and Copperfield. If a part fails, the repair is covered by the same written guarantee.
- The 365-Day Done Right Promise. A full year of accountability on every completed job. If the work isn’t right, Alcott makes it right.

Our Satisfaction Promise
Here’s how it works. If you’re not satisfied with a chimney sweep, inspection, or gas fireplace repair we performed, you call us. A live person answers, day or night, at (728) 203-8687. We send a technician back. That technician reviews the original scope of work against what was actually done. If we missed something, we address it. If the repair failed, the second visit is free, guaranteed in writing. We don’t argue about whether soot counts as dust or whether that creosote, the tar-like buildup that causes chimney fires, was really “that bad.” We look at the evidence. That means camera inspection photos showing exactly what we saw, before and after. You get to see what we see. If we’re wrong, we say so plainly and fix it. Ruben Castellano has run Alcott Chimney West Palm Beach this way since 2002 because he knows a homeowner who has to fight for a guarantee is a homeowner who won’t call again. We’d rather keep you as a customer for twenty years than win one argument.
This promise is also why we put everything in writing. The price. The guarantee. The technician’s name and photo before arrival. The inspection report with photos. You should never have to take a chimney company’s word for it. With us, you don’t.
Licensed & Insured Backing
Paperwork isn’t exciting, but it’s what separates a real chimney company from a guy with a brush and a truck. Alcott Chimney West Palm Beach is licensed and insured. If something goes wrong on your property, you’re protected. That’s the layer beneath the written guarantee, the one that says we don’t get to make promises we can’t keep. Every technician who steps onto your property has passed a background check and identity verification before that happens. This is the Threshold Standard, not an optional upgrade. Alcott operates as an independently owned and operated location within the Threshold Group family. When you see the name Threshold Verified, it means someone checked. It means the person at your door is the person we said we were sending.
Here’s why that matters in West Palm Beach specifically. We work around salt air, humidity, and homes where a fireplace might sit unused for nine months and then run nightly through the winter. Those conditions create specific problems: rusted dampers, spalled brick, creosote that hardened into a glaze over idle seasons. A licensed and insured company is accountable for how it handles those problems. A written guarantee gives you recourse. Combined, they mean you’re not gambling on a fireplace that protects your family.
Have questions about what our guarantee covers? Call (728) 203-8687 and ask. A live person answers, and estimates are free.
