A blocked flue or a neglected gas fireplace insert is a fire and carbon-monoxide risk, not just a seasonal chore, so the crew that cleans it matters more than the price on the flyer. Enchanted Chimney Sweeps tops this list of chimney sweep providers in Toronto with 534 reviews at a perfect 5 rating, more than six times the review count of the lowest-reviewed name on the page.
Short answer: Enchanted Chimney Sweeps leads with a perfect 5.0 rating across 534 reviews, the largest base on this list and more than 32 years in business. Pro Handy Solutions ties on rating (5.0, 225 reviews) as a father-son WETT-certified team, and A1 Quality Chimney Cleaning & Repair is close behind at 4.9 across 245 reviews. Most crews charge a call-out or diagnostic fee separate from the cleaning itself, so ask for the full breakdown before booking.

Our take: It ranks fifth on the smallest review base here but a strong rating. If the problem is structural, a cracked liner, spalling brick, a damaged cap, this is the specialist to call rather than a general sweep.

Claim this spot › How we score
Rating is each business’s live Google star average. Review volume shows how many customers have rated them, ranked against the other chimney and hearth specialists in Toronto. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 5.0 from over 500 reviews counts more than a 5.0 from a handful. Recency tracks how recently people are still reviewing. No business can pay to change these numbers.
How much does a chimney sweep cost in Toronto? (2026)
A routine annual chimney cleaning and WETT inspection typically costs less than a repair job, while structural work, liner replacement, rebuilding a damaged cap or crown, or gas fireplace board repair, runs considerably higher depending on materials and access. Get the full scope in writing, cleaning, inspection and any repair recommendations, before you agree to a price, especially if a technician recommends work beyond a standard sweep.
Chimney sweeps across the GTA
These crews cover Toronto, Etobicoke, North York, Scarborough and out toward Mississauga, Brampton, Oakville and Burlington, so most GTA neighbourhoods are within reach of at least one.

What to ask before you book a chimney sweep
- Are your technicians WETT certified? Ask to see the certification
- Does the quote cover just the cleaning, or also an inspection and any repair recommendations?
- Will you show before-and-after photos or video of the work?
- What’s the warranty on any parts replaced, and how are warranty repairs handled?
- Is there an extra charge for animal removal or nest clearing if you find one?
- How soon can you come out for an urgent issue, like a damaged cap after a storm?
Frequently asked questions
Are these rankings paid?
No. Rankings come from public Google data, rating, review volume, confidence and recency. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position.
How did you choose these chimney sweeps?
We started from every chimney sweep and fireplace specialist in Toronto with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, confidence and recency. See How we score above.
How often is this updated?
The data on this page carries a verified date (July 2026). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.
How often should a chimney actually be swept?
Most WETT-certified sweeps recommend an annual cleaning and inspection for a wood-burning fireplace used regularly through the season, less often for a gas fireplace that’s rarely used. Ask your technician for a schedule based on how much you actually burn.
What’s the difference between a chimney sweep and a chimney repair specialist?
A sweep cleans creosote and debris and checks for obvious issues. A repair specialist, like Toronto Masonry Company on this list, handles structural problems: cracked liners, damaged caps, spalling brick and full rebuilds. Some companies here do both.
The bottom line
Enchanted Chimney Sweeps is the safe default, a perfect rating, the largest review base here, and more than three decades in business. If the job is structural rather than routine, a cracked liner or a rebuild, Toronto Masonry Company is the specialist to call. Whoever you book, get the full scope and any warranty terms in writing before work starts.
