Will M.

Timely, polite, professional and clean. And always good about recommending any repairs or upgrades might be needed. Also, always improving their professional skills, like traveling to Europe to learn more about plasters for Kiva fireplaces.

Victor B.

I received a text that Matthew and his assistant were on their way to our home and they arrived on time. We were not home at the time and had set up everything so that they had access to our home to perform a level 2 cleaning and inspection of our fireplace. they left our place very clean and secure. I highly recommend Bailey's!!

Response from the owner: Thank you for sharing this review, Victor. We are grateful that you were happy with the service that we provided.

Greg D.

I've used this company for years for my chimney cleaning and they are always very professional. They do a great job and leave no trace of them being there. Will continue to have them do my chimney to make sure it's clean and safe.

Response from the owner: Greg, we are thankful that you continue to trust us over the years. We appreciate you giving us this review. It means a lot to us.

Bailey’s Chimney did an outstanding job of inspecting our chimneys. They were prompt, efficient, professional and personable. We have used them for years and will continue to use them for years to come.

A professional team from the first contact to the finished job. Highly recommend Bailey's if you want the job done right without the hassle. These guys are the real deal.

Teena T.

Very thorough and informative report on my chimney and fireplace with clear pictures. Let me know when the tech was on his way. Very clean. Definitely recommend Bailey's.

Susan L.

Revising review because the owner came out and due to what appears to be a manufacturer issue on our damper assembly, he is working on obtaining replacement parts from the manufacturer. We are still waiting for the parts to come in but we had kept up our warranty and so it is covered.

Pamela H.

The greatest! I've heated with wood for decades her

Response from the owner: Thank you for your business Pamela. We really appreciate it. And thank you for taking the time to describe your experience with our service. We are very grateful for your five star review.

Flo P.

Totally Satisfied: I was slipped into their schedule quickly.Two lovely young men came, vacuumed and conquered!Also noted, the work truck was very clean and organized, always a good sign.

Rose-Marie W.

When we used our wood stove for the 1st time late fall there definitely was a problem. We called Bailey's and they worked us in even though it was not easy for them. The 2 young men that did the job were on time (they called us 10min out), efficient, pleasant and informative. They did a pretty good job at keeping all as clean as possible. We have used Bailey's before. We certainly will use them again and I highly recommend them !

Patti L.

Outstanding

Bill D.

Bailey's Chimney Cleaning was responsive and on time, which is not something you experience very often in the Taos area. The technicians were very courteous and professional, and they left both areas they worked in clean. Showed us the before and after pictures and made sure we were satisfied before leaving. Job well done, and we will use them every year for our chimney cleaning needs!

Response from the owner: Bill, thank you for giving us this review!

Carlos V.

Chimney crew arrived on time. Set up immediately and got to cleaning the chimney and fire box. Good explainations and photos where provided to show before and after conditions. Crew left the work area clean once they were done. Crew provided great recommendations on maintaining the fireplace. Overall.. great experience.... great service!!!

Nancy R.

The two technicians that came to my house were on time, super friendly, and very professional. They gave me photographs of their work before and after, and I was very impressed. This is the first time they’ve come to my house, and I just called Bailey’s to schedule this service annually. I highly recommend them. They are a bit more pricey than other places but the care and attention is worth it.

Joel B.

Excellent performance with kind thoughtful and intelligent technicians. On time, communication was great, post cleaning compliance orientation was comprehensive.Price was extremely reasonable considering the quality of work and professionalism.Thank you for your service.

Response from the owner: Joel, thank you for your thorough review. We appreciate the five-stars as well.

Phil S.

Fast professional service. Really liked the before and after video

Nancy O.

We had two chimneys and dryer ducts cleaned. The technicians were professional; they did a great job cleaning the chimneys and dryer ducts. Proper safety precautions were taken. The status of the chimneys were described clearly afterwards and photos of the cleaned flues were shown and later provided in the reports. Excellent work and very professional behavior!

Response from the owner: Nancy, we appreciate you giving us and our readers your honest thoughts on the service we provided. Thank you for giving us a call and giving us those 5 stars. Enjoy the last bit of warm weather we have. Winter is around the corner.

Cassandra Petrofes & Diego L.

Every visit with Bailey's is efficient and done properly! Their technicians are very friendly and knowledgeable, and I appreciate that they work diligently to make sure that they keep their work areas clean. Keep up the good work, guys!

Suzanne L.

We had a wonderful experience today with this company. They are kind, focused, and prompt. Very highly recommend.

Kathy M.

I would never recommend this business especially if you've got a disability. My partner with a traumatic brain injury was told by a woman that "anyone with common sense should have replied by text!"Who does business through text? We were fortunate to get quicker service at a much better price for the services we need, by a real person that actually answered their phone!!! -10 ⭐ for Bailey's in New Mexico.Rude and no compassion for the disabled. Bailey please train your employees on the ADAThanks a million for getting us served earlier and at a MUCH better price.

Response from the owner: Hello,We have reviewed the recorded phone conversation thoroughly. We take pride in our customer service. This applies towards any and everyone regardless if they have a disability or not. If this conversation would have revealed that we were mean or disrespectful to you, we would have addressed it accordingly. However, within this conversation, it was exhibited that the first employee that you spoke with was kind, courteous, and never displayed any offensive behavior. In fact, that employee apologized on a number of occasions in the conversation, whether or not it was necessary. You then asked for a "free" cleaning because you felt that she was offensive. She was not, but she proceeded to apologize again and converse with you with grace and kindness--as we do with all customers. The conversation then revealed that our employee remained kind and courteous while you began questioning her competence. Still, we never engaged in conversing in a negative manner, nor did she disrespect you in any way. Nonetheless, this was not the case and we will proceed to apologize to you if we did not meet your expectations. We never have and never will engage in disrespectful behavior towards our valued customers. If we do make that mistake, we will address that swiftly and firmly. On another note, we pride ourselves in relationships. We not only establish relationships, but sustain and/or mend them if possible. We often make ourselves vulnerable and try to remain kind in all circumstances. Yet, sometimes consumers fail to realize that we are people in return. At the end of the day we are people dealing with other people. We all have different backgrounds, circumstances, etc. This is why we go to the extent that we go to in order make things right if at all we fail. We apologize if any comment by us was perceived as disrespectful to you or your partner. A comment like that appears to be discourteous. Any disagreement has the potential to induce a stress related response by any party involved. We always aspire to maintain a high level of kindness, courtesy, and the patience to listen fully to each comment made towards us by customers. Boundaries of disrespect should never be crossed, and this applies not only for a company, but for consumers. We will never demote our self worth as people in order to attempt to satisfy people that are not looking for such. Neither will we hand things out for free just because things are perceived a certain way by an individual. In the end, the truth matters. If you want to contact us to in order to "clear-the-air", please do so. Otherwise, thank you for your feedback. We will do better and be better because of it!

Great customer service. Was very informative. Appreciate the time that was taken to explain what repairs, replacements would be needed.

Fred S.

Fast friendly and competent service

Response from the owner: Fred, Thank you for your business and your five star review. Did you know that if you get on the schedule now to do your annual maintenance in the spring or summer you will save $60 on your chimney service next year? Also, in the spring and summer our schedule is a bit more flexible so we can help with roof maintenance, gutter cleaning, and other projects that require ladders. For those that are located off the beaten path, in the spring and summer our travel charge is less than half what it is this time of year. --Justin Bailey

Susan H.

Highly recommended. The technician, Matthew, was fantastic! Personable, professional and efficient. He inspected and cleaned our dryer vent--probably saving us a lot of money and energy in the future.

Response from the owner: Susan, Thank you for your recommending us. We are delighted that you had a positive experience with Matthew, a knowledgable technician. We appreciate your 5-stars!

Margery L.

The technician, Matthew, was competent and personable. I had called Bailey’s to clean out the vent to my clothes dryer, but Matthew, after checking the vent, told me that a cleaning was not needed. I appreciated the honesty. Another plus was that I did not have to wait long for an appointment.

Mary F.

Bailey's shows up on time and is very neat. I have used them several times.

Response from the owner: Mary, thank you for the five stars! Being neat and on time is something we do our best to be consistent in. Thank you for being a loyal customer. We appreciate you!

Kathleen J.

Excellent

Response from the owner: Kathleen, Your 5-star review is greatly appreciate. We are gratified to hear that you were pleased.Thank you for giving us the opportunity to serve you.

Kim G.

Mathew and Nick were able to fit me in to their schedule a week early. They quickly located where the dryer vented to the outside, and oh my - it was a mess. It was cleaned in no time! Will definitely be calling Bailey's Chimney in the future for routine maintenance.

Kristine M.

Highly recommended. We've used this business for several years and have received consistently excellent service. The cleaners are professional, thorough, on time and if running late, they let you know. They work so that the house and fireplace area stay clean throughout the process. The cleaners also take before/after photos to show exactly what they did and they identify any additional problems that need attending to. They cleaned the drier vent as well, which they do as a courtesy. Great business--thank you!

Response from the owner: Kristine, thank you for being a long standing customer of ours. We appreciate you giving us this review.

John A.

Very service oriented and proactive towards the customer base. Best in Taos and northern NM

Response from the owner: John, we appreciate your thoughts. Thank you for taking time out of your day to give us the review and 5 stars.

Linnah N.

Bailey's has been consistently professional, reliable, and communicative over the years. I highly recommend them.

Response from the owner: Linna, Thank you for your kids words and loyalty. We are grateful for customers like you.

Evelynn M.

The whole crew at Bailey's are great. When I initially called they were able to schedule me and then notified me of a cancellation and my appointment was moved up. The technicians who arrived were friendly and professional and took my rambling and concerns in stride. The cleaning and inspection itself took about 20 minutes and afterward we talked at length about the aspects of our wood stove and what it meant for the health of the unit as a whole. He showed me the pictures of inside and the parts that were reason for concern. Their report is succinct and clear.Would definitely use them again!

Robert J.

Baileys just completed our annual stove cleaning and inspection. Gabe and Devan did an excellent job, were professional, thorough, and cleaned up after. I had a question on the stove that Gabe didn’t know the answer so he called the manufacture and got the info I was looking for. Nice touch Gabe. I like that they provide a written report with photos.They’re a bit pricey but provide excellent service.

Terry C.

Always a good experience- prompt and considerate.

David L.

Excellent service and on top of the great people. They also sell wood stoves! What’s not to love?

We would never use anyone else. They are the best, so thorough and professional. We recently had three old chimneys refurbished and their expert and considerate technicians did a wonderful and efficient job.

Great professionals, timely, communicative, knowledgeable, and respectful of the property!

The guys did a great job of cleaning and giving us a detailed report with photos and a very good explanation and advice about what repairs might be needed to get the chimneys in tip top shape. They were very friendly and professional, on time, and very hard working while they were here. They did a good job with the cleaning, and we will use them again in the future and refer friends who need some fireplace work.

Terry H

Very impressed with the two young gentlemen who arrived on time. They were friendly and professional. They were thorough and did a great job. Highly recommend this business.

Mary Lynn C.

Used Bailey's because we got a discount from the Home show.When I made the appointment I was told honestly that "we aren't the cheapest" but it included an inspection. I am so glad I stuck with them. It turns out that our fireplace insert is irreparably damaged and, although the technician said it was our choice if we wanted to continue to use it, it might not be safe. He showed me photos of the damage and we looked up into the flue to visually see it. He was honest about the cost of replacing and went over the options with me with ballpark estimates. I don't think we will replace it, but, if we do, I will definitely call Bailey's first.

Shelley G.

The folks from Bailey’s were friendly, professional and efficient from start to finish. I can recommend them without reservation.

Joseph E.

They were polite, efficient, and explained everything well.

Gerald Ortiz y P.

They were on time; thoroughly professional; cleaned up completely when done and will definitely be the business we call on again in the future.

Response from the owner: This is good to hear, Gerald. Thank you for taking the time out of your day to write this review.

Todd G.

Prompt Response and Service- I received excellent service, thorough report on Stove condition and preventative tips. Overalll its five golden 💫s

Shelley G.

We have had two chimneys repaired and restored by Bailey's, and had chimney cleanings. On each occasion, the installers were professional, did a great job cleaning up, and carefully explained everything. Reports included photos.

Response from the owner: Shelley, thank you! Our installers are some of the best. We appreciate you trusting us to service you. We hope to continue leaving you with the same service and better!

Lester P

Very professional, on time and clean.

Response from the owner: Thank you, Lester. We are thrilled to hear that you were please with the service we provided.

Mary F.

Excellent technicians and work. Show up when they say they will and cleaned up when done. Nice polite guys!! Pleasure!!!

Ira J.

2 techs came to our home to clean the chimney. We've had them before and were happy with the service we received. This time we were equally pleased. They were on time, got straight to work and cleaned up. They showed me pics of the cleaned chimney. They also checked the dryer vent. We will use them again.

Erika S.

The whole experience was very positive from the initial phone call to the guys who came out to inspect and clean my fireplace. Everybody was friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. Thank you for your great customer service.

Same day service. Professional and knowledgeable. Very responsive. I sent an email , before they opened,requesting an appointment and they called that same morning. They had a technician in the area and we scheduled for that morning. The tech texted me when he was in route

Madeleine A.

I met two of the technicians when my downstairs neighbor was having her dryer vent cleaned. They were so friendly that I immediately went home and booked my own appointment. They are so knowledgable, professional, and nice! They were also very mindful of keeping the work area clean and free of damage. I wish every service provider was like them! The receptionists were also extremely friendly and helpful when booking the appointment. Highly recommend.

Jen O.

Thorough, efficient, effective.Looking forward to using Bailey’s annually.

sean H.

Great job and personable

Can't say enough good things about Mathew and his team. This was our third year having them service our wood stove which, as our primary source of heat, gets a lot of use in the winter months here in the foothills of Southern Colorado. They are prompt, knowledgeable, conscientious, and leave virtually no trace. We have already scheduled with them for next year. Highly recommended.

Response from the owner: Wow. Thank you for this review, Susan. Also, we want to thank you for being such a loyal customer. We look forward to servicing you next year. Enjoy the last part of summer, winter is around the corner. Stay warm.

Terry C.

We had a new Kuma wood stove installed to replace our old one - and a new chimney. From Doreenda and Yolanda in the office, to Gabe and Rob who did the removal and installation, we couldn't ask for better service and all our questions were answered. Looking forward to further utilizing the services of this company going forward. Thanks to all!
